The staff. The views. The food. The atmosphere. All wonderful!

During my stay at Hotel Valkarana Country Relais, I noticed that while the hotel offered stunning views, friendly staff, and a delicious dinner, there were a few areas where improvements could be made. Firstly, the floor tiles and coverlet and blankets seemed dated and could benefit from an update to make the room more inviting. I would be happier if the color of towels would be white not cream. Additionally, I was disappointed by the limited availability of brioche during breakfast. Other guests had highly recommended trying the brioche, but unfortunately, there weren't enough available for me to taste it. Despite these minor drawbacks, I would still recommend this hotel and hope that the management will consider my suggestions to enhance the guest experience even further.

I recently stayed at Hotel Valkarana Country Relais, and it was an unforgettable experience. The hotel's location by Lake Liscia was stunning, with the view from the hotel being simply breathtaking and exceeding all my expectations. I never imagined that such spectacular scenery could exist in reality; it truly felt like a dream come true. The room was clean, quiet, and comfortable, and the breakfast at the hotel's restaurant was excellent. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway in Sardinia. The staff was incredibly kind and treated me like royalty. I was particularly impressed by their flexibility with check-in times. When I couldn't arrive at the scheduled check-in time, they went above and beyond to ensure I could still access my room. Their understanding and accommodating behavior demonstrated a level of humanity that is often hard to find. I'd also like to commend the manager for their exceptional hospitality and for creating a welcoming atmosphere throughout my stay. Thank you for your kindness, hospitality, and for making my stay truly memorable!

Small thing was that the bed was a bit uncomfortable - mattress could do with an update & more pillows.

Beautiful setting, fantastic clean facilities - loved the pool and our room. Amazing food at the restaurant and the staff were really friendly! Thank you so much everyone.

We visited the hotel in September and there was not much to do around. On the hotel website they mentioned excursions but nothing was available during our stay.

The location of the hotel is amazing! The food was delicious and the best meals i had on the island. The Staff and owner were very welcoming and gave us suggestions on where to visit. It was so nice of them 😊

That we didn't stay longer.....

A beautiful hotel in paradise. A place for those looking to relax and rest surrounded by beautiful nature, yet close enough to the coast and little towns for day trips. The ambience was wonderful, the pool perfect and the service and food at the restaurant was top. Polite, kind and helpful staff. We loved every minute here.

One small thing was that our rooms terrace was actually a narrow path which just accommodated two chairs so wasn't comfortable to sit out on, however the pool and reception areas provided good places to sit so it didn't impact too much. Most other rooms did have a terrace so we were just unlucky I suppose. Also a small table by the pool loungers would be good and the pool umbrella coverings could be renewed as they're showing signs of wear.

Friendly and welcoming staff combined with a spectacular setting and good food made this the highlight of our holiday in Sardinia. The hotel is 'hidden' in the mountains giving it a sense of a retreat but the coast is easily reached by car when you want to explore the many beaches in the area. The food is top class and very reasonably priced resulting in our eating in the hotel on both nights of our stay. Room was spacious and comfortable with a good view of the lake

Generally all not good, but excellent. Only one thing, there is not too much shadow at the pool area. I am not sure if it can be done... but if there would be more shadow, we would definitely spend more time by the pool. And a bar by the pool would be nice either.

One of our best experience! We followed a recommendation to pay a little bit extra for a room with the lake view, and it totally worth it! We did not plan it, but after first diner there, we ate only at their restaurant, daily menu (every day 3 different delicious dishes + dessert) with a couple of pitchers of home wine, sunset, lake/forest view... it is magnificent! Rooms clean! Pool and pool area clean! The territory of the hotel, looks like there is a team of professional gardeners taking care about.

"The locale, the proprietor, and the ever-present manager (readily dispensing prime island insights). If you yearn for an exceptional sojourn amidst nature's embrace, this comes with my highest commendation."

Outside of the room there was the garden lighting, who did luminate also the room internally during the night. I would propose to turn off the garden lighting during the night.

Comfort, location , staff, breakfast.... all was perfect.

Location is 40 mins driving from Olbia and road was not easy. The lady serving in the breakfast was not so polite tho. But it was not over annoying

Rooms was clean and pretty big. Separately located old stone houses but well maintained. Owner was a nice gentleman. Our late checkin was not a problem for receptionist lady and even in the late night they were pretty welcoming. Breakfasts were more than we expected.

Very nice hotel with super view on the lake. Very relaxing environment. Bathroom is a bit strange, quite large and curtains for the shower. ALso toilet is very close to the shower especially taking into account the space which is available.

Cleaning deserves some attention and in our taste bed mattresses and pillows could be a bit more comfortable :)
