Pros +
- The location , views and hotel were amazing ! Staff was friendly and professional. Hotel pool was great and clean!
- We loved our stay here. Spectacular views of Porto Cervo and beautiful hotel with wonderful balcony views. They were about to close the place for winter and they were still very helpful and accommodating.
- My husband and I booked Hotel Balocco for the second leg of our honeymoon and I'm so glad we did! It absolutely exceeded our expectations in every way. First of all, the staff was incredible throughout our stay. They were kind and informative -- helping us secure a scooter and providing recommendations for meals and activities. The pool is beautiful -- even better than the pictures -- with a pretty insane view of the sea below. There's a fitness center (indoor/outdoor) just below the pool deck that has everything you need. The food at all of the restaurants onsite -- particularly the poolside restaurant which hosts the breakfast -- is fabulous.Parking onsite if you have a car but I'd also highly recommend considering a scooter rental during your stay. We took ours to dinner, shops and the beach every day. The hotel partners with a company that will drop one off and pick it up right from the hotel. We will be coming back!
Cons -
- Loved it all , wouldn’t change anything
- It is a bit of a walk, an unsafe one, to the town of Porto Cervo but i am pretty sure they have a shuttle service. We walked but the town was closed for the season.
- We really loved everything!

We really loved everything!
Food was pretty fine.
Rooms are dated. Lights flickered the entire time. Maintenance came to fix them three times, he just moves the wires around to fix them, then they start flickering again after a few minutes when he leaves.
RoomWas amazing for the size in the area. Most hotels are so expensive in that area and this hotel gave a huge room for the money.
Some items at the free breakfast are not free.
Breakfast is good, you have plenty of options.Room was clean and comfortable.The personnel from the bar at the pool are very friendly
the carpet from the hallways of the hotel. They are very old and damaged.
Everything about Balocco was amazing.The staff were very nice and polite. They helped us with really good recommendations on the restaurants in Porto Cervo.We’ve received an upgrade and we have stayed in a really good and beautiful room, clean, large and with comfortable beds. The terrace and the view were amazing. We have enjoyed the charm of Sardegna.The breakfast was great. They have a variety of food you can choose from.
Amazing views of Porto Cervo.Picturesque hotel.Delicious breakfasts accompanied with great views.Staff were extremely welcoming and helpful with restaurant/beach recommendations.Complimentary room upgrade on arrival which was a lovely surprise and start to the holiday.Can’t wait to return!
Nothing! Everything was perfect.
Beautiful views. Nice breakfast. Beautiful garden and nice place in the swimming pool area. Gored location.
Beautiful architecture and design of the hotel and it’s garden but rooms our outdated. Our room was at the level of the garden; because of the beautiful plants there came no sun in our room and it was humid.
The views . Friendly staff . Good coffee
Pool opens late
The staff were helpful and kind The suit was spacious and comfortable We really enjoyed our stay
The property surpassed my expectations, it looks even more beautiful in reality than the photos on web . The costal and minimalist decor really appealed to me and made it unique . We had a triple room 304 which was very big and at pool level with a nice terrace and two full bathrooms which we weren’t expecting . The sceneries and the landscaping from this hotel was fabulous. But what was even more enjoyable ,was how pleasant and helpful the staff at Hotel Balocco was , starting with the reception staff Augustino and Roberto and the breakfast staff ,Luciano and Evalyn, just to name a few but all staff were courteous and friendly. Their restaurants and site recommendations were spot on . We spent 6 nights at this wonderful place and were sad to leave . The breakfast that was included was plentiful and delicious fresh fruit , baked goods ,eggs cheeses and meats as well as cereals and yogurts and homemade jams . They even have their own bio garden . Also a small gym overlooking beautiful vistas and massages and beauty spa .It was the best venue to visit Costa Smeralda, based near the beautiful town of Porto Cervo .
Pool was very nice, free parking, breakfast buffet was great, very quiet.
Room was a little humid and had a strange smell.
The views were stunning , the staff were delightful . The buffet breakfast was excellent and there were several restaurants a short distance walk away .
It was very quiet in the evenings - they didn’t seem to make the most of the bar area and the wonderful night time panoramic views . It would have been nice to have a rink in the bar before going out to supper but it didn’t open until 7.30 . It’s only a very small point . You really need a car to stay here .
Staff were really friendly and helpful.Great breakfastSuper location with lovely views Room was clean and kept spotless during the our whole stay
Not a big deal but only one station on the tv was in English.
Beautiful hotel, amazing location with stunning views of the coast. Very friendly and accommodating staff. Breakfast was delicious and I enjoyed the gym facilities and pool. Pricey enough but worth it!
Location . Quality . Staff . Great views over Porto Cervo . Excellent breakfast . Comfortable rooms .
Architecture, breakfast , external area . Overall a nice stay . We we’re upgraded to a better room with bay view at arrival and were very welcomed at the bar .
Wi-Fi is poor . Must be improved . Bathroom is of good size but the shower box is pretty small- a really bad design and worse , leaks all over the room.
The accommodation was luxurious, the amenities were top-notch, and the service was impeccable. The staff were incredibly friendly, helpful, and professional. They went above and beyond to ensure that my stay was comfortable and enjoyable. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a truly memorable experience
This hotel was lovely. The staff was so helpful, especially Roberto and Augustino. They are at your disposal for everything- arranging transportation, making dinner reservations, recommendations, etc. Breakfast was very good and the gym equipment was good as well. The location is close to just about everything. Our room was huge with a beautiful view. We were kindly upgraded to the junior sweet at no extra charge.
Gym could get a bit too hot since it was outside but they had a fan that helped a bit. Pool could be open a bit earlier to accommodate an early morning swim since the gym was hot. It would have helped to know earlier on that there was a free taxi boat from the marina to Porto cervo village. It wasn’t until a day or so into our stay that I was informed about this and I had been emailing back and forth about transportation tips a week in advance of our stay.
