- Costa Dorado is a hidden gem! Fabulous location and staff! I loved the gardens throughout the facility- it felt more like a B&B than a hotel. The included breakfast was excellent- the staff kept the breakfast open for us extra long as we arrived late the night before. The restaurant was also excellent- with a beautiful dining patio overlooking the sea. We also loved the town of Cala Gonone - there were a bunch of seaside restaurants along the waterfront just steps outside of the hotel. And the hotel staff gave us referrals to set up a boating day trip on the Gulf of Orosei - which was just spectacular!
- Clean, good location, friendly staff
- room and view were very nice and exceptionally clean. The staff member that checked us in was very kind.
Cons -
- Room not as pictured — beware. Booked sea view, did not have such a view except from balcony. When I mentioned to staff, they tried to describe this different room as an upgrade
- Besides the staff member that checked us in, the staff seemed stressed out. They told me that we could get coffee at 7 if we would have to miss breakfast because of having a boat excursion scheduled, but when we asked for the coffee the next morning, one of the breakfast staff was stressed out about this and let us know that this was an inconvenience. They also said that we could pay them a reduced rate for parking tickets the first night we arrived, but when we asked everyday after that, they were not available.
- Only the car noise on the street is too loud.

The hotel is located in front of the see which has a beautiful view, the room is very clean, all staff are friendly, breakfast and dinner are very delicious ….. highly recommend .
Only the car noise on the street is too loud.
Beautiful garden with a seafront terrace for the restaurant- it’s certainly the nicest on the oceanfront and newly renovated rooms. Location is perfect to walk to the port each day and parking area is connected to the hotel (8euro per day) so you don’t have to move it. The staff was so kind and welcoming, helpful with any request. WiFi works great. We really enjoyed our stay and would happily return- there was nowhere else in town I wanted to be at!
Only small things to improve are the AC is so-so and the bathroom plumbing has a venting issue that created an odor most of our stay, though some days it would go away.
Perfect location and lovely terrace for dinner and breakfast. Staff welcoming and helpful!
The location and views room was clean quite basic but perfect
The stairs with luggage
Perfectly located, stayed in a junior suite with great views of the ocean. Staff were welcoming and very hospitable, nothing was a problem and they would go the extra mile to meet any request. We had a fabulous stay, the breakfasts were great with the custom made omelettes a favourite. Molto Molto bene.
Very friendly, nice food, accommodation and great location!
The location was great, walking distance to everything you need.
There isn't hotel parking. It is a paid parking next to the hotel.
Location is great and cute turtles
We booked two rooms by accident and no help was offered to cancel and rebook. This location also doesn't have parking which means you have to pay for parking close by.
Amazing stay directly at the main promenade in Cala Gonone. We highly recommend to book in advance during high season, as this hotel has a great location and due to the fact that the town is small. From there, you can due great (boat) trips to famous Cala Luna etc., or explore different beaches close by by car. Breakfast was also nice, with a nice ocean view on their terrace. Parking lots are available close by. Rooms were clean and were fully equipped.
Great location across the road from the beach
The staff were so rude especially the owner/manager and everything cost extra. Coffee at breakfast extra, parking extra, sun loungers extra. They even held a deposit for beach towels that had to be returned to the front desk when you were finished or you would be charged $10 euro for each one.
Location is great, staff excellent, food tasty and service good.
It was disappointment, that absolute majority of "4 star hotel" rooms have no view at all. One cannot consider tiny window to small and narrow patio/stairs as a courtyard view.Another limitation is unusually early check-out (10:30).
The place has an amazing location. We rented a room with an ocean view; realistically you had to open the front door of the room to then sit in a balcony/walkway to enjoy the ocean view. A bit of an oversell but not that bad. To whoever owns this hotel; with a bit of a freshen up/ update you can have a great hotel. Please note that the staff were absolutely amazing! Extremely helpful and polite. Thanks
Typical Italian breakfast so nothing special. Too many sweet things, only hard boiled eggs, cheese and cold cuts, etc.
I wish Italian breakfasts were healthier.
The location is great. Right across from the water. The staff was wonderful. The restaurant is pretty good, damn good by "in the hotel" standards. Room was comfortable and huge.
The bed was fine, in fact, great for Italy standards. I just wish Italians learned how to make comfortable mattresses -- but this is not something you can fault the hotel for. So, really, it is not even something bad that I can say about the hotel.
The staff is very friendly and nice, you can always get answers from them. The view is very good from second and third floor, you can enjoy the sea view and the sun while lying on a sun longer. The dinner is also worth trying especially the white wine.
Good location overlooking the beach.At the quieter part of Cala Gonone however very close to bars shops and restaurants. Beautiful views from the restaurant.
We had a ground floor room which only had a small window, the room was dark with no views. There was no hotel parking, the hotel is next to a public car park with additional charges of six euros a day, there is also some free car park up the road.
The hotel is located on a beautiful spot in the town just across the sea and beach and within walking distance of all restaurants and shops
The rooms and especially the bathrooms could use an update. The beds were comfortable though and the room was huge.
