We recently spent a lovely week at the adult only Piccolo Hotel, Porto Ottiolu, Sardinia. We booked the 'Full Board Plus' option through Jet2, which in addition to buffet style breakfast, lunch, and dinner, also included a limited range of drinks and ice-cream. Our room was a good size, although that may have been because we were given a triple (Room 107) rather than the double that we had booked. As with most hotels, it would benefit from more clothes hangers and drawer space. The safe was not ideal, as it was too small to take a camera case. The rooms were generally clean, but they clearly don't clean under the beds on a regular basis, as there was a lot of hair and dust under ours. There was plenty of food available, most of which was labelled, including allergy information, but being a pescatarian (i.e. vegetarian plus seafood), I constantly had to ask if it was 'vegetariano'. Surely, a vegetarian/vegan icon could have been added next to the allergy information. I had the plain omelette a couple of times until the chef apparently couldn't resist adding some ham to it on one morning. The hotel is located about 10 minutes walk from the marina, but apart from a few bars, there's not a lot to see and do. The hotel provides a minibus service to a couple of local beaches where it also provides access to sunbeds and umbrellas. All the staff are excellent and very welcoming, but four deserve a special mention: Antonella, Floriano, Alessia & Greta. But for the minor potential improvements mentioned above, I'd have happily given the Piccolo hotel a five star rating.
