7Pines Resort Sardinia

The hotel was stunning and staff were lovely—we were even upgraded to a beautiful Laguna room with direct pool access. However, we visited in mid-October and were disappointed to find most nearby places already closed for the season. The hotel had only one restaurant open with limited options and very high prices (€162 for two pizzas and a bottle of rosé). We tried exploring Baia (20-25 minute walk) and Porto Cervo (10 minute taxi, costing €40 each way), but both were mostly shut down. Even online listings showed places as open, which was misleading. By Day 4, we decided to rent a car, which was more cost-effective than taxis. We had room service once for lunch, but most days we relied on the nearby supermarket (about a 5-minute walk). They had fresh rolls, meats, and cheeses, which we brought back to our room. One day when the weather wasn’t great we decided to play tennis court, this cost us €80 for an hour! It’s a real shame there wasn’t clearer communication about the seasonal closures. Sardinia is stunning, and we would have loved to experience it at its best. Had we known, we definitely would have chosen a different time of year to visit!

We stayed in what seemed to be the largest suite on the property and absolutely loved it — spacious, comfortable, and thoughtfully equipped (especially appreciated the ice cubes in the mini freezer!). The staff were incredibly attentive throughout our stay, and the property itself is beautifully laid out and never felt crowded. The pool was very nice, and while the beach was a bit steep for our taste, it was still enjoyable. Our suite offered great privacy — even with its oceanfront location, the bushes limited the view but added a peaceful sense of seclusion, which we loved… until Saturday night. Unfortunately, loud music from a neighboring property (not affiliated with the hotel) blasted through a massive speaker pointed directly at our wing of suites. Staff were sympathetic but explained they couldn’t intervene until after midnight — and even then, there was no guarantee the music would stop or that authorities would be able to respond. Breakfast was another highlight — a lovely, generous spread each morning.

Globalist stay with suite upgrade award to a ocean view suite. Suites are on a smaller side but was nice to have. Service was amazing. Hotel staff anticipated needs and were accommodating. Hotel restaurant on the pricey side so we mostly ate at local restaurants, which was worth the drive. The pizza restaurant at the hotel was good but overrated and overpriced. Overall, stay was excellent and would come back here.

A wonderful experience from start to finish. We were met by fantastic reception staff who were very friendly and offered a drink on arrival and we had an upgrade with a sea view, thank you! Beautiful beaches and fabulous pools. A huge thank you to Hamza around the pool who was so helpful and had great interpersonal skills with everyone I saw him interact with. We had dinner at Capogiro which was sensational. We have never had a raw langoustine before but it blowed our minds. The meal at 160 euros each was money well spent, pure theatre in the best surroundings. All the staff were incredibly kind and I hope they all continue to do very well in their careers in hospitality. A big shout out to all the room attendants, breakfast staff, front of house and chefs, grounds people, gardeners and anyone else I’ve forgotten. . Magical!

Lovely grounds and rooms but only 1 restaurant open all week with another Thursday to Saturday. As hotel part of US group (Hyatt) I’d expected pool to be heated out of season - it wasn’t and was 22C. I know it’s Italy and I wasn’t expecting US pool temperatures but at the price point some heating surely reasonable?
