The conditions of the rooms were terrible, especially the bathrooms, which are at youth hostel level at best. The entire building is outdated and needs a complete renovation. The gym is very old with only 1 mat, old carpeting and a few outdated machines. There is nothing that makes this place a 4 star hotel. Nothing is complimentary, not even a clean beach towel. The location and the view are beautiful and the only redeeming qualities of the hotel.

Traditional hotel, not perfect but would return.

Hotel is in a great location and we got a lovely welcome at check in with an upgrade to a sea view which we were very grateful for. We haven’t needed to have many encounters with staff but when we have they have been excellent. Positives - location, range of pool areas and terraces to sunbathe as well as the beach area which is small but with lots of chairs and umbrellas. Terrace area outside of our room was lovely to sit in, very private. Breakfast area was never too busy and there was a good range of food including a gluten free area. Great restaurant across the road from the hotel, lots of others in the main area of baia Sardinia, all within walking distance. There is a supermarket less than a five minute drive away. No loud music at the pool or any activities which could be a negative for some. Beds were very comfortable. Pool towels provided but if you want to change them there is a €2 charge. Parking at the hotel. Negatives - most of the sun beds were ‘reserved’ before 8am which then weren’t used for hours, the hotel really must look at this. The beach bar didn’t have a great range of food for lunch, we only used it on 1 occasion and we weren’t overly impressed. The WiFi was dreadful. None of our phones could ever connect to it meaning that we had to purchase data bundles to keep in touch with home which was a necessity for us. I am vegetarian and thought breakfast was a decent quality but my husband and son didn’t rate the hot food that highly.

We enjoyed 2 nights here. The front desk staff was fantastic. We liked the private resort which had amazing grounds including pools, and the beach/rocks. The pool/beach chair scenario is very undesireable. They ask you not "save" chairs but everyones gets up at the crack of dawn and goes down to throw their stuff on chairs and then proceed to leave for hours. We just went to the beach and put our towels in the sand, or on a portable chair if available when we were ready to get in the sun. We ate at the restaurant across the street and had a blast. You can also walk up the hill and down the street to get to main Baja area of shops and restaurants. All very close!

I loved the atmosphere of the ocean and the scenery. Did not like that they only give you one beach towel for the entire stay. The beach restaurant had very LITTLE choices 3 salads from 12:30-2 then ONLY frozen pizza rest of the day. No service at the pool side to get drinks, food. Nothing going on on the property. Very quiet and felt like i was on a retirement property!

Relaxing and Remote

Had a very nice stay at the hotel with friends Alas, the weather was pretty poor, which did impact our four day break The rooms are a very high standard The area around the pool suffers from not having enough space for sun beds, but the position means that there is not a great deal of outside space The main hotel restaurant is not good value for money, however the pizza restaurant is brilliant The downside of staying at the Ma&Ma is it is not easy to get to town, the hotel could do with offering a shuttle service, it would make the experience that much better, as there are lots of good restaurants in town In summary, a great stay, not perfect, but I was not disappointed. I would stay again if a shuttle service was provided, as that opens up the choice of restaurants as parking the hire car in town is not easy, plus you can’t drink and drive

Beautiful Sardinia.

Our stay at The Gand Hotel Sameldra was a wonderful experience. The staff throughout the hotel were fantastic. They were very friendly, willing to go the extra mile to make our stay more comfortable and enjoyable. The breakfast was great. The choices one had were excellent. The evening meals were delicious, except for one evening. We ordered the suckling pig. It was cold and very little meat on it. We sent it back and they sorted it and we had the lamb chops, which were delicious. The bar staff were lovely. Especially Francesia making brilliant cocktails and Maria Antonette so professional patient and taking care of the guests with such care. Then the food service staff and the service staff on linen cleaning the bedrooms. Again so professional hard working. All with a smile. Lastly the staff were lovely too at reception. our gratitude to all of you who made our stay at the Hotel Sameldra a wonderful memorable one. Thank you! Room 339. Highly recommended!

Dated but nice facility on the ocean with nice views. Rooms are ok but they need to improve the beds and pillows. Pillow was thin like a towel. Breakfast buffet is below average. Food quality is below average and some staff not friendly and do not look happy they work there. The restaurants have very limited food offerings. Not much seafood and pasta is below average. Prices are way too high but the nice situated hotels helps to improve the stay. Prices are way too high for rooms in high season.

This is a beautiful, if slightly dated, property. Staff and decor are austere but helpful. Rooms are dated and the mattresses/pillows are uncomfortable. But the location, beachfront, pools and view easily accommodate for all of this.
