Porto Istana Vacation Packages

Everything was awesome however I arrived two hours early and I never got the instructions for self check in. Otherwise it’s a modern, relaxing an upscale hotel well worth every penny. I like how art pieces are in your room as well as in the hallways. If I were a chef I would have taken advantage of the the complete kitchen.

I had ordered a room in the hotel with at least Wifi. They ran out of rooms and tried to save the situation by offering us a cottage. The cottage had a terrible bad smell and there was no internet (Wifi) connection. Breakfast was terrible, instant coffee, only croissants, no proper bread and only one cheese and ham. Because they had overbooked we had to explain why we were at the breakfast, for cottage users there is no breakfast. But we payed for it, so after some discussion we could stay, but it's embarrassing.

The staff were very friendly and welcomed us verbally in and out of the hotel creating a calm atmosphere. The cleanliness was exceptional as windowsills and window casements were cleaned regularly. Floors were polished even though there is an inherent dust outside due to the dry environment all around. The air con filters needed a service to clean the filters ro allow air to flow correctly so that cooling was efficient. As I was in the trade guess what was my first priority as the temperature was rising to the mid 30 deg C. Breakfast was excellent with assorted help yourself cereals , assortment of cakes, croissants, fruit, bread and spreads. Three flavoured fruit drinks with a slice of fruit offered, water, milk of 5 different types, over 10 different hot drinks. All in all a hearty breakfast. The room we occupied was large with a large en suite and huge balcony all on the top floor accessed by a lift. Parking was over the road in an old Olive grove with the trees still standing. Not too far from town or beaches with plenty of choice of bars and restaurants, beautiful bays with boat trips so we visited the local caves and beaches by RHIB on a day trip. I was overall very impressed with my stay. Thank you.

This was a great find. The property is beautiful, tranquil and very well maintained. We loved our room and were delighted to find the on site restaurant! I highly recommend this lovely resort.

Clean place, well located - a 5 mins walk to the Center. Besides 2 supermarkets. A small. Hot practical gym.

Hotel property is great (even though it’s not in the beach , and there is a great view from the pool deck. Our issue is more about our booking. Initially we booked two rooms but after coming to the hotel we saw that we actually booked a room and a two bedroom studio. We told the hotel and Expedia that we want to move to the studio and vacate the room. The hotel staff actually told us to do that but the hotel and Expedia refused to refund the room we did not use so we ended up spending $1200 extra for room we did not use. Hotel gave use a 10% discount for our last day.

This property is just beautiful! It sits atop a bigger hill overlooking cannigione and has a wonderful view. There are three outdoor pools and one pool in the spa area to choose from. The rooms are well maintained and comfortable with excellent amenities. The staff is friendly and the service was excellent. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a getaway that is calm and relaxing yet so close to everything. Highly recommend you rent a car in Sardinia- made life so much easier and more fun to get around. You’d definitely Need it to drive up and back when you want to the retreat. Only thing missing is a gift shop on site especially If you need small items last minute but there’s a market down the hill that is a five minute drive. Special thank you to the front desk and restaurant and bar staff! Francesca took good care of us at check in. Can’t wait to return!
