Hotel Corte Rosada Affiliated by Melia

Located in a bay northwest of Alghero, calm water, great for swimming, but you sacrifice the open water horizon view. The pool complex is good, clean, a few meters from the beach. Breakfast was ok, standard Continental selection, with a great selection of sweets. Dinner at the restaurant was very good, “elevated” Italian dining.

We stayed here for a few nights to relax, and it worked perfectly. The location is beautiful, with lovely views and spectacular sunsets. Although we were initially concerned after reading some reviews, we chose to upgrade to a junior suite to make sure our stay would be restful — and it was. The hotel itself is nice, though it does have the feeling of “having seen better times.” The rooms are arranged in small two-story buildings with a courtyard in the middle, surrounded by lots of greenery. The crickets are very loud at night, but in a way that felt calming rather than disturbing. Our room was comfortable, and the bed was simply amazing. The junior suite, however, was essentially two regular rooms joined together, which left us with a living area featuring an uncomfortable couch and table that felt somewhat redundant. The breakfast buffet was good, the pool large and enjoyable, and the beach area perfectly fine — pebbly, but manageable with proper shoes. The gym wasn’t impressive for a hotel of this level, but it was sufficient for a quick workout. We tried the Sardinian night, which was okay, though we had better food at other restaurants nearby. During the day, light snacks such as burgers and sandwiches were available; although overpriced, they tasted fine. There is also a tennis court, but it’s in poor condition and in need of proper maintenance.

Everything was really good. Pool, beach, food, parking, staff, rooms. Plenty of sun beds both at beach and pool.

The pool and private beach were beautiful. And NO kids was just perfect! The little pier that's on the beach is also something else ! Crystal clear water and just stunning at sunset. I actually proposed to my (now) Fiance on that pier. Rooms were cleaned every day with fresh bed sheets and towels. The breakfast spread was very good and the staff were all superb. I highly recommend it for couples as it's just a little slice of heaven if you can get over "What I didn't like" below:
