Arbatax Park Resort - Borgo Cala Moresca

PaulandRita Everything was fine. Do your research, then research and research again before deciding.

Difficult review to make This is a difficult one to review for us. This is one of six hotels in a very large ECO-park. The location and surroundings are very beautiful. The place itself had it's "prime" many years ago and it shows. However the rooms where quite large and bathrooms nice and clean. AC works well but is old and sounds like an aeroplane more or less. Very good housekeeping every day though! You must be prepared to walk a lot and MANY stairs up and down to move around the premises, for us this was not a problem but good to know if you have any issues. The most disappointing thing for us was the food. We decided to do halfboard (breakfast and dinner) which we usually never do. Because we thought "it's Italy, the food here is great!". No, it was not. I myself ended up doing a fast until lunch - we had a car and went to beaches and had lunch every day - since breakfast was only dry baked sweets and white bakeoff bread and canned fruit floating around in bowls! The only thing my husband and my son appreciated was the coffee. Very disappointing. Dinner was different "salads" with canned crabsticks and green beans, ONE time they had Caprese salad and even that was terrible. Iceberg lettuce does NOT belong in a Caprese salad (I'm an educated chef so I guess I'm extra "offended" ;)). The fish was dry, overcooked. No taste. My only guess was that this buffé was made for german and british visitors mainly because it resembled that kind of food more than typical Italian food.
