Map & location
Lu Bagnu, Castelsardo, Sardinia, Italy
Set in the laid-back seaside district of Lu Bagnu, Hotel Blumarea sits on Sardinia’s quiet northern coast, a short drive from the medieval hilltop town of Castelsardo. The area is all about low-key days on the sand, seafood dinners and wandering narrow lanes lined with colourful houses.
You’re just steps from local cafés, shops and bars (around 50m), and a few minutes’ walk from the nearest sandy beach (about 200m). With car hire included, it’s easy to head along the panoramic coastline, discover hidden coves or day‑trip to other northern gems such as Isola Rossa or Costa Paradiso.
- Approx. transfer time from airport (Olbia OLB) with included car hire 1 hour 45 minutes.
Facilities
Pool & outdoors
The hotel’s showpiece is its heated outdoor freshwater pool on the rooftop terrace – a sleek, modern space with sunbeds and parasols where you can swim, sunbathe and soak up views of the surrounding hills and coastline. The pool is typically heated between 12 April and 3 November (dates can vary), and complimentary pool towels are provided.
When you fancy the feel of sand underfoot, the nearest beach is around 200 metres away. With car hire included, you’re also free to discover other stretches of coast, from family‑friendly bays to more rugged coves along the northern shoreline.
Spa, sports & wellness
Wellbeing is well covered for a hotel of this size. There’s an air‑conditioned gym with cardio machines, free weights and a stretching zone, usually open from 07:00 to 21:00 for guests aged 14 and over. Yoga sessions are sometimes available for an extra charge.
If you prefer to unwind rather than work out, book in for a beauty treatment (18+, local charges apply). Families are looked after too, with a small indoor soft-play area and restaurant highchairs. Around the hotel you’ll also find a 24-hour style reception with concierge support, luggage storage and the option to hire extras like kettles or mobility scooters, subject to availability and local charges.

As the sun dips, the adults-only Blu Lounge Bar comes into its own – a stylish spot for a pre-dinner aperitivo or a nightcap, usually open between 18:00 and 23:00. Down by the pool, the bar serves drinks and light bites, keeping pool days effortless.
