COLONNA RESORT, a Colonna Luxury Beach Hotel, Porto Cervo

Beautiful resort, Beautiful pools, the beach is not as big as shown in the images, its very very small, but the good thing is you are surrounded by heavenly beaches all around you outside the resort also. The breakfast buffett is nice, the dinner at the resort restaurant is not recommended, very bland foods and not very appetizing. Better to go off resort where you will have lots of amazing options beautiful resort

Great location, about 10 min drive from Porto Cervo. Huge pool area and nice private beach. Staff very friendly. Cleaning staff very efficient. It was nice to see turtles roaming the property. I recommend them to offer Irons and Ironing boards to guests instead of having to pay for the service. Don’t like their ticket system for the pool tools

Excelente hotel na Costa Esmeralda, muito bem localizado, a uma curta distancia de carro de várias praias e atrações. Lugar lindo, limpíssimo, com funcionários muito atenciosos e educados. Até difícil destacar algum funcionário pq todos são exemplares, mas a Bárbara da recepção fala português e isso facilitou muito em várias situações. Escolhi pensão completa e valeu a pena. Café da manhã é excepcional. O jantar é com prato a la carte e o cardápio varia diariamente. Se fosse pagar à parte, o almoço seria 40 euros o buffet e 55 euros buffet + a la carte. A área das piscinas é um destaque a parte: são várias, a maioria de água salgada. A prainha é pequena, mas muito charmosa e de águas cristalinas, boa para snorkeling. A academia é básica e não é o ponto forte do hotel. Enfim, amei minha viagem e quero voltar.

Overall a great resort. Staff was top notch. Food terrific. Pools outstanding. Location excellent. Gym/fitness was outdated and treadmills were terrible. With a better gym it would have earned five stars..

Great resort, very kind staff. Beautiful view and the private beach is very valuable compared to fully crowded public beaches.

Excelente servicio del staff del bar, de la piscina, limpieza y recepción. El lugar es hermoso, las piscinas y la playa privada lo mejor

Make sure you bring trousers as they only have one restaurant and you won’t be able to eat there… Pros: Massive pools which aren’t over crowded Nice coast line and views Good coffee Nice breakfast Suggestions for improvement: Air con didn’t work on an entire floor Create some sheltered areas outside that you don’t charge for More food options - room service menu is limited and if you don’t want a 5 course meal there are no other options other than pizza and 3 sandwiches

Beautiful hotel with stunning grounds, pools and beach. We chose to swim at the beach, such a lovely setting, and the sea was warm. The pools appeared to be unheated. The rooms were quite tired for a 5 star hotel, but our garden view room was comfortable, quiet and not overlooked. The hotel was spotlessly clean throughout. The half board option was excellent value and the evening meal choice, with waiter service, fabulous. The only thing that let the hotel down was breakfast, which was very limited for a hotel of this size. The standard scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, plus cold meats and cheese, and lots of cake! The smoked salmon was very good though... Reception staff were efficient and friendly, and kindly helped us with a couple of issues during our stay. We took advantage of the useful free shuttle into Porto Cervo one day, a 2 hour visit was probably all that was needed, although we stayed longer. Plenty of parking in the hotel grounds and the road outside. We thoroughly enjoyed out three nights at the hotel, thank you Colonna Resort!

Absolutely stunning resort. The pools and the view of the ocean is gorgeous. A bit pricy for food and drinks by the pool. Definitely rent a car as there is limited shuttle service to and from the resort to the town of Porto Cervo. Overall we had a great stay and would definitely stay again!

Nossa estadia foi incrível. Hotel com excelente serviço, todo staff muito preparado para atender com excelência e cordialidade, desde a recepção, equipe de garçons, maître, camareiras. Acomodações limpas e em bom estado. Comida ótima, optamos por pensão completa, café da manhã farto e com bastante variedades, jantar servido a lá carte. A implantação do hotel e a vista são lindas, Destaque para as sete piscinas de águas salinas climatizada com vista para o mar fez toda diferença. Voltaremos com certeza.

This hotel is outdated and stuck in the 90s, with no signs of a proper renovation. The location is inconvenient, requiring a 10-minute drive to Porto Cervo, with traffic and parking only adding to the frustration. We chose this hotel for its supposed child-friendly environment, but it was a complete scam. Upon check-in, we were forced to pay for an "upgrade" because of our toddler, even though we had clearly informed them that our children would be joining us. They blamed Expedia for the mix-up, but it felt like a blatant cash grab. After a long and heated negotiation they offer to book us a second room, and finally after some heated convo they offered a bigger room with a parking lot view at an extra cost, but still refused to provide a crib. This ordeal took over 1.5 hours, with two exhausted kids in tow. Our room had a non-draining shower for three days, despite multiple requests to fix it. We were forced to bathe our children in filthy, standing water—a completely unsanitary and disgusting situation. The staff refused our request to change rooms, leaving us stuck in miserable conditions. The final insult came on our departure day when we asked to take a few croissants to go before our early flight. The staff made us wait while they checked with multiple managers, only to refuse our request. This hotel is not luxurious. The staff is unhelpful, the amenities are subpar, and the overall experience was dreadful. Do yourself a favor and book elsewhere.

Its a 5 star hotel how can the housekeeping only work at a certain time and when they come to clean they don’t actually clean at night they just do the bed and leave but they dont clean the room and remove the towels they’re very restricted to timings and there was a huge spider in the bathroom not a normal huge spider it was one of those huge and dangerous spiders and about the rooms the noise the noise is unbearable we could hear everything above us there was no noise cancelling flooring

Wunderbares Hotel! Freundliche Mitarbeiter, fantastisches Essen, überragende Poollandschaft. Die Zimmer sind angemessen groß, sehr sauber und in gutem Zustand. Die Anlage ist sehr gepflegt und ebenfalls wunderschön. Wir kommen definitiv wieder.

Hotel otimo! Limpo. Atendimento area externa pessimo. Mas recomendo pela localização e infra

**Horrible Experience - NOT Even 3 Stars!** I’ve stayed in many hotels, but this one takes the cake for being the absolute worst. It’s barely 3 stars by any standard. On top of all this, the property is completely exhausted. The entire place feels like it’s been stuck in the 90s, and not in a charming, nostalgic way—more like it hasn’t seen a proper renovation since then. The furniture is worn out, and there’s a general sense of neglect. Everything looks and feels dirty, adding to the overall miserable experience. The hotel is also quite a drive from Porto Cervo, making it even more inconvenient. Save yourself the trouble, and book the Marriott option in the village instead. It has a better beach, a better location, and much better food. We only booked this hotel because it was advertised as being child-friendly—a complete scam. The so-called "kids club" was a total joke. It’s more like a sad room with a few toys tossed in. There were no real activities, minimal staff supervision—nothing that could remotely be called a "kids club" by any decent standard. We left the kids for a bathroom run and came back to them staring at the TV despite our no screen rule. From the moment we arrived, the nightmare began. At check-in, we were *forced* to pay for an "upgrade" because of our 2-year-old son. They claimed the room we originally booked wasn't big enough for all of us, despite the fact that we had clearly informed them in writing and verbally that our children would be joining

Excelente servicio del staff del bar, de la piscina, limpieza y recepción. El lugar es hermoso, las piscinas y la playa privada lo mejor

Chuveiro e banheira vazando, e quando fomos reclamar com a recepção, apenas mandaram fazer limpeza do quarto, gostaríamos de ter trocado de quarto… e não fizeram a mudança, não conseguimos usar nenhum dia a banheira. O café da manhã é excelente, e a praia do hotel maravilhosa.

Property need maintenance and upgrade Room service and cleaning deficient

Alles insgesamt sehr schön. Personal sehr freundlich, Essen sehr schmackhaft. Nur das Mobiliar bedarf einer Überholung. Dieses entspricht sowie das kleine Bad nicht einer 5 Sterne Kategorie. Wenn man Duscht schwimmt das ganze Bad hinterher. Trotzdem kann ich es absolut empfehlen!

Ruhig aber sehr abgeschieden. Ohne Auto geht hier nichts. Die Einrichtung ist allgemein auch nicht mehr die neueste

Sehr schöner Garten gutes Essen und freundliches Personal. Zimmer und Badezimmer klein und hellhörig. Super Aussicht

This hotel is very tired. The staff at the reception were not overly welcoming or accommodating. This is not a five star resort. But for what it is, it’s fine. Beautiful location.

Food is the quality of an American strip mall Italian chain. This is not a 5 star hotel. Nice views, nice pool, but that is were it ends. When I complained about the food, they threw me out of the restaurant. The manager came over and started lifting plates off my table and told me I was not welcome there. No thank you I don't want your $5 frozen grocery store ravioli. You spend $800night for a room thinking this is the Four Seasons, instead it is the Olive Garden

Loved our stay at the resort. Staff was wonderful and the resort is beautiful. I'd upgrade the toiletries as they were very average for a 5* resort and a hair dryer was something you'd find in a 3* hotel. These are minor things though, we had a wonderful time and would come back. Staff was also incredibly helpful and attentive.

Overall a great resort. Staff was top notch. Food terrific. Pools outstanding. Location excellent. Gym/fitness was outdated and treadmills were terrible. With a better gym it would have earned five stars..

The resort was stunning. The staff were incredible.

Title: Disappointing and Poor Value – Would Not Stay Again Review: We stayed at this property recently, and unfortunately, the experience fell far below what we expected for the price. Several issues contributed to a consistently disappointing stay: Excessive surcharges: €50 per day for a room upgrade with no option to change within the same category, €20 fees every time we dropped off or picked up our rental car, and €3 per item just to have something delivered to a pool lounger. It felt like a bait and switch setup, where the initial price looked reasonable but everything after was designed to extract more money. Misleading descriptions: Our “garden view” room actually overlooked the staff car park and air conditioning outlets. Staff frequently gathered there to smoke and chat, leaving us with no privacy at all. Poor service and inflexibility: A jug of hot milk was spilled in my lap at breakfast. No apology or compensation was offered—I had to specifically request to speak with the manager. I asked for decaf coffee pods for the in-room machine and was simply told no, with zero effort to accommodate. No water was supplied in the rooms or gym—just tap water, which felt cheap considering the rates charged. The gym itself was uncomfortable, with no water and odd jazz music playing throughout. Lack of transparency: At checkout, we noticed fake items had been added to our bar tab, requiring time to get them removed. Unhelpful policies: When I requested an iron to press a shirt

Beautiful property, great beach, fantastic customer service.

Beautiful hotel and area, fantastic staff, great food

Great beach access and very convenient (assuming you have a car) to Porto Cervo, Polto Quatu and all northern beaches.

Great location, about 10 min drive from Porto Cervo. Huge pool area and nice private beach. Staff very friendly. Cleaning staff very efficient. It was nice to see turtles roaming the property. I recommend them to offer Irons and Ironing boards to guests instead of having to pay for the service. Don’t like their ticket system for the pool tools

Excelente hotel na Costa Esmeralda, muito bem localizado, a uma curta distancia de carro de várias praias e atrações. Lugar lindo, limpíssimo, com funcionários muito atenciosos e educados. Até difícil destacar algum funcionário pq todos são exemplares, mas a Bárbara da recepção fala português e isso facilitou muito em várias situações. Escolhi pensão completa e valeu a pena. Café da manhã é excepcional. O jantar é com prato a la carte e o cardápio varia diariamente. Se fosse pagar à parte, o almoço seria 40 euros o buffet e 55 euros buffet + a la carte. A área das piscinas é um destaque a parte: são várias, a maioria de água salgada. A prainha é pequena, mas muito charmosa e de águas cristalinas, boa para snorkeling. A academia é básica e não é o ponto forte do hotel. Enfim, amei minha viagem e quero voltar.

Exceptional and 8min by car from the center !

Great resort, very kind staff. Beautiful view and the private beach is very valuable compared to fully crowded public beaches.

Good location

O Colonna é excepcional. Um dos melhores hotéis que já fui. Localização, vista, as pessoas, o serviço, o restaurante, café, o buffet do almoço, o jantar. Tudo espetacular Vale a pena demais...voltarei com certeza

Incredible stay - can’t complain about anything. Half board food is incredible…

The hotel is amazing; multiple swimming pools, great private beach, friendly staff, good and quick service, food is delicious. The negatives: espresso machine at the room cost €2.5 euros per day, no water for free (only available upon check-in. The curtains can only help 80% of sunshine, next-door occupants may be heard “soft walls and it wakes you up”. Anyways, i will come again here due to the mentioned points and the near locations to touristic points and porto cervo. 4 to 5 nights is enough for North East Sardinia.
