Arbatax Park Resort - Suites Del Mare

I'd like to start by saying that I have never left a review for any hotel before, yet I highly rely on other peoples when I'm looking to book a holiday, so I decided it was important that I left a review after my next holiday. We stayed at Arbatax from the 20th - 27th September 2024. We booked directly with Arbatax Park Resort and booked a Suites Del Mare room with Bed and Breakfast which also included a private transfer to and from Olbia Airport. Room We were staying in Suite 732 which was a Suite with Sea View, and honestly, I think we might have had one of the best suites in the entire resort. We had over 180deg of sea views from our balcony, and it felt like we were in our own tropical oasis. The room itself was huge, the bed was the biggest I think I have ever stayed in and very comfortable, beautiful bathroom with huge walk-in shower. The room was cleaned everyday and bath and beach towels changed every day as well. Aircon worked well too which was very welcomed because it was still very hot weather despite being the end of September - average around 27deg every day and 21deg at night. The only issue we had was that one out of the two sets of sliding doors onto the patio was a bit sticky, so we just kept it locked and used the other doors. However housekeeping had noticed they werent right and reported it to maintenance, so they came out the same day to try and fix the doors. Unfortunately they couldn't as they said the entire locking mechanism would have to be changed over and they didnt have one in stock, so they deadbolted the door so that it would stay secure for us during our stay. Luckily this wasn't an issue as we still had another set of sliding doors to use, so we didnt mind. Food We had breakfast included which was a buffet breakfast. There was a good selection of food available, both hot and cold. However, we found that all the buffet restaurants, regardless of breakfast or dinner, the hot food is never actually that hot - its just warm, which isn't that great, but I feel like thats how it always is for buffets unfortunately. Also, the cooked breakfast just wasnt that good either... the bacon was weird and the sausages which more like tinned hot dogs and didnt taste like real meat. As much as we would have loved to have a good cooked breakfast every day, we just didnt enjoy it at all, so we stuck to the cereal, fruit, and pastries instead which was all really delicious. The buffet restaurants for dinner were also good and had a nice selection of foods, but it was just let down in that none of it was hot unless they had just brought it out fresh from the kitchen. However, we found that we ate most lunchtimes and a few dinners at the Restaurant L'Oasi which was also the pizzeria, and they were AMAZING. I honestly would have been happy to eat there every day and would highly recommend this restaurant over all the buffets. Also really well priced and cheaper than some of the buffets too. The only thing I did notice was that it a

The resort overall would need a revamp to bring it to 2024 standards, however the service it is pretty good, and the private beaches and pools are real assets. We liked the local products evening with stands, and we bought several particularly good genuine products there. At the resort you will also find a good local shop where to buy genuine food and beverage products. Staff assistance it is good, and our Suite del Mare was stunning. Privare access to the beach from the suite must be improved though. You must be a good rocks climber to use it! but overall, we would go there again.
