My husband and I just spent a week at El Faro on the occasion of a friend's wedding. The hotel is in a great location, secluded and peaceful, and shows one of the most beautiful bays in Sardinia. It has immaculate rooms and swimming pool, excellent food, free wireless internet in the communal areas, and the most helpful staff one... more

We celebrated our honey moon in Sardegna, stayed at the El Faro hotel for 11 nights, and had a vacation to remember for a life time! Wonderful rooms, sweet and helpfull staff, a fantastic restaurant, and a perfect loaction made our visit to Sardegna and Alghero just amazing! The hotel has a quiet and calming atmosphere, though with lots of... more

Thank you once again to the team at El Faro. I stayed for 3 nights this time. Fabulous. My travelling companion had never been to Sardinia. Another fan who will return.

If you're looking for Sleek steel and glass decadence with hundreds of rooms and thousands of channels on a plasma screen TV, El Faro is not for you. Try Dubai. Calm tranquility in beautiful surroundings is, however, to be had here a plenty. The place is clean, the rooms comfortable and the view over the natural bay is simply a... more

If you don't want to do anything but lay by the pool this is the perfect place. It's quiet and removed. However, if you want to spend time in the city, don't stay here. If you... more

I just spent three days in the El Faro Hotel, but wish I could have stayed much longer: nice room with superb view of the bay, extremely nice and helpful staff, nice food (I saw someone complained about small portions, but if you are to eat a 4-course dinner you can't expect each course to be a full meal in... more

Start to finish, Sardinia was an amazing surprise. El Faro's just half an hour from Alghero airport... at the end of the road along the Bay of Nymphs... sun rising on the left and setting on the right]... sinking past the cocktails and over Neptune's Grotto and it's million-year-old garden of stalactites and stalagmites – actually, we're not sure why... more

Upset lady from Beckenham I have just paid a lot of money for the worst holiday I have ever been on El faro hotel is a 3 star pretending to be 5 star. The staff are rude, the surroundings are littered with rubbish & cats, the rooms are basic, the food was cold & you were still hungry after you... more
