Albergo Diffuso Mannois

It was incredible beauty authentic Sardinian experience. The suite with balcony for two friends was amazing. I was actually there for four nights and my friend for two. Everything was perfect. We each had our room, we ate on the balcony every night. The suite was so charming. We had an incredible view from the balcony amd from the doors from my room. Anna welcomed us with a huge smile every morning for breakfast in such a beautiful stone setting and Julia brought us the best coffee. They were so kind. The food was delicious . The staff at reception were all so nice (I didn't get names but one of the girls is in this video) she took me to my car with my luggage. I went to Sardinia to discover the Blue Zone and this quaint charming hotel is absolutely stunning. Thank you Grazie Mille Merci.

We stayed a short distance from the reception building both in the old town. We found the accommodation comfortable clean and well maintained. Excellent breakfast at reception and staff were friendly and helpful. The best car parking was nearby at Saint Antonia piazza which was safe and available. Best restaurant was Pasta e Pasta.

We booked a suite with a terrace and got room 6 in the main building. The room had 2 double beds and a very large bathroom. There was a balcony/terrace that was very nice too. At night, it was nice and quiet. The AC worked very well. The BREAKFASTS were AWESOME, especially the staff member who worked there ( who made drinks, sat us, etc). The breakfast catered to American and UK type travelers (eggs, bacon) but had Italian typical options as well including a large honeycomb that you could take pieces off. The room was spacious, but electrical outlets were at a minimum. We had to unplug lamps to plug in our devices. We did not use the beach and there was a confusing "offer" about that when we checked in (something about getting housekeeping every other day or something). We did sign up for the pasta making class which seemed a little pricey for each person ($80), but in the end it was a fun experience and we would recommend it. PARKING was very confusing at first - when we arrived there was a traffic jam in the street and everyone was honking. It sorted out and we ended up finding a place in one of the suggested lots (about a 5-8 min walk). Our biggest complaint was the shower. There was no bottom lip to contain the flowing water and the shower curtain did not reach the floor, so lots of water seeped onto the floor. We let staff know and housekeeping responded by giving us extra towels to sop up the water every day. The other nice thing about the hotel was that you got daily emails asking if everything was ok. I would recommend this place. It's not super cheap, but a unique stay. It is very easy to walk around town to restaurants from the hotel.

We ended up the same building as the reception but - as mentioned on the website - your rooms may be somewhere else. So we can only comment on the main building. It's an old building which is recently (and very nicely) renovated although in my mind it's a tad overdone (e.g. ceramic electric switches is kind of cute but - why not mix modern with an old building?). Everything was clean, the beds very comfortable, and despite the ground floor room not even that noisy (considering that cars run up and down the narrow streets often). The staff was very friendly and the breakfast buffet had a nice variety. Our suite came with it's own private area that we were having breakfast in but it's feel very cozy. I'd prefer the open court yard. Communication was also super quick and friendly - they made dinner reservations for us and even suggested a time so we didn't miss the sunset which I thought was a really nice touch. The one little downer was that they tried to charge us €25 just to go for a quick swim and use their own beach area. First of all that this is an extra charge is not obvious on the website (in contrast, it sounds as if this is something - like at other hotels we have stayed at - that it is part of the room charge. Secondly, they knew we only wanted to go for quick swim after breakfast before checking out and they seemed more concerned with our checking out then trying to accomodate their guests...
