While set in a dazzling location along the bay of Baja Smerelda, the Hotel Bisaccia is beset with internal problems: poor staff training, no visible management and an overriding attitude of disdain for their guests. Many of the staff act like they are doing the guest a favor by allowing the guest to stay at the property. After booking one of the most expensive rooms at the property: a full ocean view, deluxe room in a new annex, my husband and I were escorted to a room that had not been air conditioned for many hours and allowed us a view of the bay only from the outside (side) patio. There were no windows in the room that provided a view of the ocean. This was a 70th birthday trip for my husband and he was clearly disappointed with the room and the fact that it was about 100 degrees. The phone in the room did not work; it was not even connected, so it was impossible to call the front desk to discuss an alternate room. At almost $ 700/ night (US) the room should have met our expectations to a much greater degree. As we walked outside to discuss what we should do (it was too uncomfortable to stay in the room), we noticed a room at the very end of the annex with a beautiful patio. The sliding glass door to the room was open (the air conditioning was on) and the room was clearly UNOCCUPIED, allowing us a view of the lay out. We decided we would ask the front desk if we could change to this room. The hotel was not booked to capacity, so it seemed a reasonable request. Not so.....

Fantastic location, weather, and helpful staff

An extremely enjoyable trip for our Wedding Anniversary. We dropped our kids off with Grandparents and jetted off to Sardinia for three nights and we certainly picked the right location and right hotel.

We've been to the Italian mainland quite a few times, but never Sardinia. I'm happy to report that we loved it and will definately be returning at some point. A few bits of advice for anyone looking to go for a couples trip:

You really need a car. The area it's in has a handful of bars and restauraunts, but to see the most of Sardinia you need a car. Taxi's are not readily available and the private transfer alternatives are pricey.

Sardinia itself is quite expensive in parts. Pizzas range from 8-12 euros as a budget option, but other main courses would be between 20-40 euros. Beers are around 7 euros for 40cl, and cocktails are usually 10-13 euros.

The hotel staff were absolutely brilliant with us, they really couldn't do enough for us and even arranged somewhere for us to watch the football in the local town.

We stayed in the Nelsons Lodge accomodation which was lovely

Beautiful hotel in a fabulous location

We really loved Sardegna and Baja. This seaside resort was a gem. The bay was stunning, our room was beautiful and a lovely breakfast included. The only negative was we tried room service for breakfast but no one picked up the request from our door. That was ok we just went down to restaurant. Walking distance to a wonderful little town with many restaurants and shops. This was the end of our 2 week stay and was really relaxing. The staff were wonderful and Franco on the piano was so nice to hear at the end of our day. I would highly recommend a stay here.

We loved our stay at Hotel La Bisaccia. All the staff were lovely and very welcoming. The reception staff helped us book a tour to La Maddalena island which saved us money and was a better tour than the one we had booked ourselves.

We had a fantastic renovated room with a sea view. It is a very short walk to the restaurants in Baja Sardinia. We did not do the full board option but all our meals at the hotel were great quality - better than most of the other meals we had in town.

The two beach options are very convenient - one rocky private beach and one sandy public beach with hotel beach lounges. We enjoyed both options.

Would throughly recommend and hope to be back.

This hotel was in a great location--very near walkable small shopping area. There was a sandy beach as well as a rocky beach that was private and perfect for swimming. Hotel staff were very kind and helpful. There was a wonderful on-site physician to help with an urgent medical problem. Pool was salt-water and very clean.

Good Hotel but not as good as it used to be. The hotel is much more 'commercial' now. Meals aren't as good as they once were for example you have to pay extra for a whole fish, there isn't a desert buffet anymore. Also the hotel has made a decision to let anyone use the 1st 2 rows of the private beach - this isn't a private beach anymore.

The hotel is showing some signs of wear and tear and but still one of the best in the area.

My advice would be to go to Stella Maris in Villasimius - for the same price it's much better and less commercial.

The staff are brilliant at the hotel. Super friendly and helpful.

Great location with amazing views over the bay. Lovely pool area and surrounding grounds with access to small beach too. Easy to walk into the small centre for restaurants and bars. The rooms were very clean, refurbished and modern but it would have been nice to have had tea/coffee making facilities. Service was excellent with staff very welcoming and always available to help.

Great place to stay in Costa Smerelda

The only downside is the salt water swimming pool which we found just too strong to swim in. The beach and the water made up for it of course but it was a shame.

4th or 5th visit to this Hotel

The key \"shout\" for this Hotel is quiet and relaxation.
I would normally round this off with excellent food, however they seem to have cut the budget somewhat.
On our previous visits we used to be offered an alternative Main course of fresh grilled fish every evening, this was a BIG plus for me and my wife, it made the evening meal a real highlight, not anymore, no alternative fish course now.
Instead I'm afraid there are disclaimers on the menu about fish offered (as part of a \"normal\" course) an asterisk here, an asterisk there, proclaims \"may be frozen\".
Definitely frozen and not a patch compared.
Oh! And the glorious Grana Padano wheel of cheese also missing from the breakfast buffet, also while plentiful, food has been subject to the bean counters cuts.
The General staff here are possibly the best anywhere I have stayed, lots of familiar faces over the years, all fastidious in their goal to please.

Excellent break

Super hotel. 7 nights B&B. Eat at a different restaurant in town each evening. Very restful. Great staff but the wi-fi was rubbish!

Air conditioning doesn’t work

Gorgeous views, clean/nice rooms. Biggest complaint were the rooms air system. Spewed out hot air the entire stay during the peak of summer, rooms were unbearably hot. If you opened the balcony/doors windows it would get a little cooler however you’ll wake up with bug bites everywhere. So its a catch 22

You are paying for the fabulous view..worth it!

Can't beat the view..breathtaking!
The hotel is old and needs repair. The picture of the room we were booking was a newer room than the one we got....not pleased.with this deception! It was obviously end of season...planters were dried out, hotel was dead!
Loved the old charm and the attentive staff....thank goodness for the staff!

Relaxed stay

Great hotel. Really good location, close to beach, nice walk after dinner to the town of a few hundred yards. Evening meals really good. Staff very warm and friendly. I'd stay again in this town at this hotel. Seawater pool is better than chlorine!
