La Ghinghetta Relais

We loved our stay here and hope to return in the future! The hotel itself is beautiful with well maintained rooms and facilities. The staff were all friendly and very helpful, both leading up to and during our stay they were communicative about helping to make bookings for restaurants, a beach club, and a car hire. The town itself is small and sleepy but has everything you need and the local beaches are beautiful and great for swimming. Don't hesitate to stay here if you're considering it!

One of the most amazing hotel experiences I've ever been too. Staff was so friendly and accommodating. They helped us coordinate a wonderful honeymoon even with some bad weather. The breakfasts were phenomenal and with an epic view. Even with the pool being worked on, they worked out a different rate given these circumstances. The nearby spots are so amazing and it sure is a lovely town. We cant wait to come back!

My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon and truly couldn't have asked for a more special experience. From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome—especially Rodney and his wife Frederica, who were so kind, warm, and attentive throughout our stay. The hotel only has 9 rooms so it truly felt like we had the place to ourselves even though it was the end of May. Our room was spotless and beautifully kept, with a breathtaking view that we’ll never forget. It was the perfect place to wake up each morning and unwind each evening. The food was absolutely incredible. Everything was made fresh and by hand in the kitchen, and you can really taste the care that goes into each dish. Be sure to order the lasagna and the tiramisu—they were hands down our favorites! Also, we can't forget the cocktails, anything we wanted Rodney made for us! The hotel is nestled in a quiet, picturesque village that feels like a hidden gem. It's peaceful and relaxing, ideal for anyone looking to slow down and soak in some serenity. There’s even a charming local gelateria nearby and the ocean is just a short walk away. We left feeling refreshed, grateful, and already dreaming about when we can return. Highly recommend this place for a romantic and tranquil escape.

The hotel is very nice with a beautiful view. The personnel is very kind but not always prepared.|It could have been a great holiday, however there where several things really below expectation for a 4 star resort.|We arrived and the room was really damp and cold. Also the breakfast room, on first days was really cold with no possibility to heat it.|The breakfast buffet was really limited for with no savory food, some fruit ( limited type and no seasonal fruit), yogurt and cakes. |Only on our third day of stay, after we asked for more options, they presented a menu with additional products on request, mainly eggs coked in different ways. |Our room was just below the hotel terrace, very noising when in the morning at 7-7.30 a.m. they clean the terrace moving the armchairs above our head.|The bar in the hotel is always was always closed.|In the room, they didn’t provide change of towels and beauty products (like soap and set with cotton for face cleaning).|Honestly a great place but with a limited service, ok for 1 or 2 nights not for a longer stay!

Little gem of a hotel tucked away in a beautiful corner of SW Sardinia. Reception staff were very welcoming and helpful. Room is spacious enough and modern, but with a local/maritime touch on the decor. Breakfast is excellent: you get the continental options + separate menu with items that are cooked for you by the virtuoso lady right there. Unfortunately, they closed their restaurant a few years ago but you can get light meals for lunch and dinner (for the latter, lasagna or melanzane parmigiano are to die for, home made by someone nearby). Sunsets from the roof terrace are beautiful, you can also sip cocktails as you watch, and chat away with Rodney (husband of the lady who cooks breakfast), who is fun company and always full of conversation.|There is a small beach steps away, it does not belong to the hotel (Italian families come eagerly!) but you can ask for an umbrella at the reception (nothing is too much trouble for them, really!) Water is amazing, and you get both sandy and rocky part. For parking, they give you a resident permit for the duration of your stay, and you can park on any street nearby (we always found a place).|Really happy with our stay, amazing memories, thank-you to all the staff!

Firstly, the staff/team onside are 5 star! Absolutely wonderful people and nothing is too much trouble for them. Perfect blend of professionalism with friendliness. Federica, Rodney, Andreas all absolutely wonderful alongside the other on site team members, they all really helped make our stay wonderful. ||The hotel itself is immaculately clean. Small, great location for relaxing, lovely terrace with 1ft deep 'plunge' pool which helps on the crazy hot days. The views from the sea view rooms are sensational. Beautiful to watch the sunset from the bar upstairs too.||Breakfast there is a great selection, pastries, fresh cakes, cereals, and eggs any which way you would like them cooked, the omelletes are amazing. Small selection of food available for lunch and evening meals, all home cooked and freshly prepared, incredibly tasty!||Parking available roadside as they provide you with a permit. ||Small beach located 10 seconds walk away which can get busy.||The only reason we haven't scored this a 5, is because at this price point for the room (we had the split level room with 2 balconies) I would expect slightly better amenities. Ie: proper coffee in the rooms, not nescafe instant. Even a cafetiere or nespessro machine should be minimum standard. The air-conditioning was utterly appalling.. there was no way to escape the heat as the air con just wasn't sufficient for the size room. We weren't the only guests who voiced this. Our room had signs of damp that really shouldn't be visible. In an ideal world the beach towels would be of a better quality.|No complimentary fresh bottled water in the rooms. There are small glass bottles of water in the fridge but these have to be paid for. The tap water is not drinkable as on occasions cane out quite murky. There is access to drinking water at the bar, with lemon and mint - but it would have been rude to try and fill a bottle up from this each time.|Very limited storage in the room, wardrobe which we had to ask for more hangars for, but nowhere really to sit and get ready/do hair/do make up.||Overall the place is beautiful, not a huge deal to do in surrounding areas but perfect for a quiet relaxing break.||The above suggestions would have made it a 5 star review for the price point this hotel is targeting.||Once again though, cannot speak highly enough about the staff... lovely lovely people!

The hotel is set in a quiet little town surrounded by traditional buildings and sat right on a small beach, it has an amazing family feel to it and the staff are amazing. The rooms and hotel are spotless with some amazing views. |If you want a quiet break with the friendliest people this is the place to come, we will certainly be coming back.

We stayed for 2 nights and wished we had stayed longer.|The staff are friendly and attentive. Rodney was so lovely and made us some amazing cocktails and the most delicious antipasto platter I have ever eaten.|Our room was beautiful and had a small balcony overlooking the ocean. The beach bags and beach towels were a great touch also. (Reception have beach umbrellas to use which we loved also.)|The rooftop bar and dining area are so incredibly beautiful and there perfect spot to have an afternoon drink as the sun sets.|The little cove at the front of the hotel is the perfect spot for a swim and sun bake. |Portoscuso is a cute little town with some nice restaurant options. |I can't really think of any negatives, our stay was perfect.
