4 * Swimming Pool Traditional Views

  • Magnificent sea views from the 4 swimming pools
  • Situated in Baia Sardinia only 5 miles from the town of Porto Cervo

Just a 10 minute walk from the attractive shops and restaurants of Baia Sardinia, and only five miles from the famous town of Porto Cervo, the Grand Hotel Smeraldo Beach enjoys a quiet and secluded position with its own small beach (normally in use May to September). Set in a sheltered cove, the hotel commands magnificent views to the neighbouring renowned National Park of La Maddalena.

There are two elegant bars and terrace areas where you can relax with a classic Italian cocktail and enjoy the superb Sardinian sunsets, accompanied by views over the four swimming pools and sparkling sea. For those seeking something more active, three tennis courts are located only 100 metres away (payable locally). Take advantage of the boat trips organised by the hotel, and discover the beautiful coastline of Northern Sardinia with its sandy coves and rocky inlets.

The hotel has 160 rooms (official rating 4 star). Child prices apply to ages 2-12 years.

There are numerous steps around this hotel and therefore it is not suitable for people with limited mobility.

About the location

Set near the northern tip of the island, Baia Sardinia is known for its wide sandy beach and crystal-clear waters. Located within a sheltered cove, this exclusive coastal town looks out to the spectacular Maddalena Archipelago – situated just a short boat ride from the town – and provides a great base from which to explore the Sardinian coastline.

Baia Sardinia’s attractions tend to revolve around the natural beauty of the area, with the beach taking centre stage. Watersports are popular, with sailing and diving among the town’s biggest draws for visitors.

For the young (or young at heart), the nearby Aquadream waterpark provides a good range of thrills, plus there are plenty of delights at Porto Cervo to be enjoyed, including a great museum and the local golf course. 

Dining is generally local cuisine, although the luxury hotels dotted around the resort often offer more international fare, sometimes with great views to accompany. Expect to see seafood on most menus – it’s a local speciality thanks to the coastal location.

Transfer time

The hotel is 1 hour from Olbia airport. We recommend hiring a car in your destination. Simply call us once you’ve completed your booking and we will talk you through the options.
