Very good hotel - very good helpful staff. The issue for my wife and I is that the hotel is very isolated. There is nothing in terms of a bar or restaurant or shop (or anything!) within walking distance. we enquired about a Taxi to the nearest two towns but was advised that because the Taxi has to come from the Airport area, the fare would be 50 Euros each way to even the nearest town. We ended up renting a car for 4 days. So it is OK if you are happy staying and always eating at the Hotel, but if like us, you are B&B and like to go out for meals elsewhere I would avoid this otherwise very nice hotel.

We’ve just returned from a wonderful 12 nights at this hotel (though only 10 were originally planned). The location is very easy to access by public transport from Olbia airport, though we did use a taxi when we arrived (taxis are not cheap on Sardinia). Our room was exactly what we needed to give us a relaxed time, and with a great view over to Tavalora. And a good sized pool was just along the corridor too. We like the option of a small kitchenette in our room, which means we didn’t need to worry about breakfast times or snacks during the day. Plenty of places to eat within walking distance (although some had closed for end of their high season) and the hotel also serves good quality evening meals which proved very useful the evening the heavens opened and we were saved a wet trek for food. Our special appreciation for the hotel’s reception staff who were a great help to us throughout our stay, particularly with guidance on a medical need at the start of our hols (we’d not heard of Guardia Medica Turistica before) and also extending our stay by 2 days when EasyJet cancelled our flight home (we certainly didn’t mind staying an extra two nights!) We’d love to return to this area to experience it in a different season, in which case we’d certainly come back to this hotel.

Rooms are clean & comfortable, the showers were disappointing as it is a narrow plastic cabin. Shower gel & shampoo were only provided the first day & in a very tiny quantity. Rooms don’t have an iron nor has the reception which is a tad surprising & disappointing. The staff are very friendly & helpful despite the communication issues as we speak very little Italian & most of the staff don't speak any English. The pool: the hotel page says it has a seasonal swimming pool & 2 beach bars which is not the case. When we asked we were told “They are in other locations”. The hotel’s page & our booking both say ”cooked-to-order breakfast” included which turns out to not be the case. At the checkout, a receptionist asked us to pay for all the breakfasts except 1 coffee & 1 croissant each. Obviously, we disagreed as this was included & paid for. They then changed their version & said we only need to pay for orders after 10h30 without any signed or timestamped receipt as one would expect from a decent hotel. We had a few dinners & drinks at the restaurant & we were given a bill every time & the payment was made straight after like everywhere. The breakfast misadventure was an exception, why do they hold this until checkout & without any signed receipt? Is this intentional or just amateurism? I can’t tell. Also, the hotel was not able to provide us a checkout bill like other hotels. They said ”they don't do this” The receptionist also declined to give us a passport until they check that ”nothing is stolen” as she said!

We had a wonderful stay at Domo Minnanu Miriu and enjoyed a comfortable and very clean bed- and bathroom. The very friendly hosts Rita and her husband prepared us a delicious and rich breakfast near the beautiful garden full of mediterranean herbs and fruits like pomegranates, rosemary and myrtle. We can definitely recommend this place as well as a starting point to the wonderful beaches of Brandinchi, Lu Impostu, Capo Cado Cavallo, La Cinta and many others. Thank you and arrivederci!
