Activities & Experiences
La Maddalena
From the water, discover the islands around La Maddalena, moving between coves, rocky shores and open coastal views. Relax together on deck and enjoy the day at your own pace, with no fixed itinerary.
Castiadas
In Parco dei Sette Fratelli, trails wind through wild hills, woodlands and Mediterranean maquis. Set off at your own pace, pause along the way and enjoy the quiet, greener side of Sarrabus together.
Castiadas and Costa Rei
Explore the coast around Costa Rei by bike, stopping wherever the sea and scenery catch your eye. It’s a lovely way for two to combine a little activity with relaxed breaks by the beach.
Pittulongu and Golfo di Olbia
In the Tavolara-Punta Coda Cavallo marine protected area, discover the underwater world while snorkelling, then take in the striking island views. Together, you’ll see the coast from a whole new perspective.
Olbia
In Olbia, make time for a visit to the Basilica di San Simplicio together. Its Romanesque architecture offers a glimpse into Sardinia’s history and a peaceful change of pace from the beach and coast. Afterwards, take a stroll through the city.
Our pick for adults

Adults-only hotels in Sardinia combine relaxing days on the Mediterranean with a landscape shaped by long sandy beaches, small coves, maquis, hills and striking granite rocks. For a holiday for two, the island offers different regions and hotel styles: from an adults-only hotel right by the sea to a property with extensive spa facilities. Add Sardinian cuisine, historic places and plenty of space to plan your days your own way.
The Grand Hotel Resort & SPA Ma&Ma is located in La Maddalena and combines five-star accommodation with a spa covering more than 1,000 square metres, a pool set among granite rocks, and Italian cuisine at L’Antica Isola restaurant, MaMa Pizza and the Ma&Ma Bar.
In Castiadas on the Costa Rei, La Villa del Re – Small Luxury Hotels offers an adults-only experience right by the sea, with a private sandy beach, infinity pool, Le Palme restaurant, Sardinian specialities, a selection of wines and a small spa.
The Pelican Beach Resort & SPA in Pittulongu is a four-star adults-only hotel on the coast, with direct access to a beach, the Nuska Beach Restaurant and a spa area offering various treatments.
In Cardedu on the east coast, you can expect the Hotel Corte Bianca, a four-star hotel with a 5,000-square-metre Garden Spa, lagoons, hydrotherapy facilities and open-air relaxation areas right by the sea; the cuisine takes its inspiration from the flavours of the Ogliastra region.
Northern Sardinia is rocky and maritime along many stretches of coast. Around La Maddalena, islands, granite and sheltered coves shape the scenery. A stay at the Grand Hotel Resort & SPA Ma&Ma can therefore be combined with walks through La Maddalena and trips around the archipelago. Here, the sea is just as much a part of the landscape as the dry, fragrant plants of the Mediterranean region.
On the Costa Rei in the south-east, you will find long beaches and an open coastal landscape. From Castiadas, you can combine days on the beach with excursions into the surrounding area. Pittulongu near Olbia, meanwhile, lies on the north-east coast and is a good base if you want to combine the coast, smaller towns and the area around the Costa Smeralda.
Cardedu is located in Ogliastra, a region on the east coast with beaches, hills and rural landscapes. Here, quiet days by the sea pair well with trips into the hinterland. For an additional themed selection, you can also browse the Hotels by lakes and the sea category.
La Maddalena is a good choice for anyone who wants to combine an island atmosphere with coastal scenery. Olbia is an urban base in the north-east, while Cagliari in the south offers a different impression of Sardinia, with its old town, harbour and Mediterranean city life. In the east, trips to smaller coastal towns and the hilly hinterland are well worthwhile.
You can reach Sardinia by plane or by ferry from the Italian mainland, depending on where you are travelling from. Before booking, it is worth considering the location of the hotel, your preferred airport or ferry port and your plans for excursions together. A hire car can be practical for a holiday with several destinations; if you mainly want to stay by the sea, it is best to plan your journeys around the location of your hotel.
Sardinian cuisine is shaped by regional traditions and combines simple ingredients with robust flavours. Try culurgiones, filled pasta parcels from Ogliastra, pane carasau, pecorino sardo and porceddu. On the coast, fish and seafood feature on many menus; bottarga, dried and salted fish roe, is often finely grated over pasta. Sardinian wines such as Cannonau or Vermentino make a perfect accompaniment.
The adults-only hotels featured here also offer different culinary highlights. At Le Palme on the Costa Rei, traditional Sardinian specialities and a selection of wines take centre stage. At Hotel Corte Bianca, the cuisine draws on the flavours of Ogliastra. At the Grand Hotel Resort & SPA Ma&Ma, you have several places to eat, serving Italian dishes and pizza.
Late spring, summer and early autumn are ideal for beach holidays. In July and August, popular beaches are busier, while May, June, September and October are often pleasant months for combining the sea with walks and excursions. In spring and autumn, the island also reveals its greener or quieter side. If you enjoy hiking or sightseeing, you can avoid the hottest part of the day in summer by planning activities for the morning or late afternoon.
If treatments and relaxation are important to you on holiday, you will find suitable properties in the Wellness and spa hotels category. The Grand Hotel Resort & SPA Ma&Ma offers an extensive spa area, Hotel Corte Bianca has its Garden Spa with hydrotherapy facilities, and the Pelican Beach Resort & SPA features a spa area with treatments. La Villa del Re completes your stay with a small spa and fitness areas.
For a regional comparison within the Italian Mediterranean, you can also explore the options for adults-only hotels in Sicily and adults-only hotels in Tuscany. In Sardinia itself, the properties in La Maddalena, Costa Rei, Pittulongu and Cardedu offer different bases for child-free days by the sea, culinary discoveries and time together.
