Although separated by a small creek the hotel and the
Tennis Club are only 100 metres apart and all the facilities
of each are available to you whichever you choose to
stay in. Prices are the same for both.
The capital of Costa Smeralda is Porto
Cervo and it is here that they hold the famous Porto Cervo
yacht regattas. It is in the centre of the Porto Cervo Marina
that you will find the stunning village which was designed by Luigi
Vietti. Porto Cervo is also known as Porto Nuovo by its inhabitants
and means the new port.
The hotel, built around its swimming pool and gardens,
forms part of the village piazza of Porto Cervo. All the
108 rooms and suites are air-conditioned with bathroom
and balcony or terrace overlooking the gardens, the
piazza, the hotel's private creek or the sea. It has a
first class restaurant, a pool-side barbecue restaurant,
a piano bar, a terrace bar and night club (no noise
problem in the hotel as the club is under the hotel next
to the creek).
The Tennis Club has 16 very comfortable and spacious bedrooms, air-conditioned with bathroom and terrace
overlooking the pool and the courts. There are five
floodlit tennis courts, which can be booked by the hour
at reasonable rates, a health and fitness centre,
a squash court, an open-air swimming pool and an
indoor heated pool. Although the hotel and Tennis Club
are both right on the sea, you cannot swim in Porto
Cervo because of the number of boats in the bay.
Guests are taken to the hotel's secluded beach in the
next bay by the hotel's shuttle boat.
