Putzu Idu Vacation Packages

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.

Quite possibly the most dishonest hotel I've stayed at.  Whilst it's beautiful and serene, with a lovely beach, please be warned of some of the practices deployed by staff.  We booked an airport transfer upon arrival: the driver arrived at the exact time of us landing (which cabbie does this??) and we were charged a wait time. There was no allowance made for customs or luggage. Very cheap tactic.  They also tried to charge an extra night city tax, which we had not occupied the hotel.  We tried to take a late check out in lieu of missing our first night: given that is low season and the hotel was almost empty, you'd think they'd show some good will. No: they wanted to charge €120 for us to stay in our room until 5pm. Food is very average. It's a relaxing resort, but the mentality to fleece guests is disgusting. It wouldn't happen in Greece!  I'd avoid this island and the resort based on the hotel staff and taxi driver's behaviour, as one receptionist agreed with me that their approach was a cultural issue/nuance.

Great secluded location!

Everything was perfect

Nice hotel, but the staff really needs to decide if they want to be in hospitality. The majority of the staff never says hello or goodbye. They won’t even acknowledge you. They have very limited relationships with local restaurants, so they can’t help you get a table. Overall, the service is very unfriendly, and the front desk makes you feel like you’re bothering them. If you'd like to charge and advertise like a 5 Star, please provide 5 Star service. The worst part is that they charge €10 per day just to use an iron (€40 for our four-night stay). In Canadian dollars, that’s well over $70 for something as simple as an iron. We’ve stayed at dozens of five-star hotels across Europe over the last seven summers, and while we understand there are safety regulations, most hotels simply have housekeeping or turndown service collect the iron in the evening after you’ve gone out for dinner. They also wanted to charge €50 just to bring food to our room, in a two-story hotel. The “sea view” is mostly blocked by the building in front. The beach advertising is misleading. You cannot walk to the beach—you have to take a shuttle. This hotel has more rules than a prison. I would not consider it a five-star property; it’s a four-star hotel at best. The one bright spot was a gentleman at the front desk who was genuinely kind and gave us an excellent local recommendation.

Hotel is in a beautiful area, great view from the restaurant and our balcony. The breakfast was also very good. Food and service at the restaurant could definitely be better. Hotel needs a little love but overall very clean and upcoming.

Super friendly staff. Pretty beach onsite. Great restaurants on site. Advertisement of shuttle service to/from airport non existent. That was not good because the transfer fees were over $100 each way and I should have ordered a car at the airport had I known.

Our stay was nice! Overall, I would return but there were a few not so great things. 1. The beds are very hard (typical of Italy). 2. The toilet in our room dripped 24/7. 3. The hotel restaurant has a very strange dinner menu. 4. The shower temperature fluctuated and went boiling hot out of no where. 5. Not a lot of pool chairs. 6. Paying 40 euros for an umbrella and chairs at the private beach they own as hotel guest seems unnecessary. 7. The sand on their private beach was full of wood chips (the free side right beside it was much nicer).
