Overview

 
Hotel Punta Negra is a classically Sardinian seaside hideaway carved into low cliffs just outside Alghero. Think pine-framed terraces, two lagoon-style seawater pools and big-sky views over the impossibly blue Riviera del Corallo. With direct access to sandy coves, bright Mediterranean-style rooms and an intimate, low-rise feel, it\u2019s made for slow, sea-breezy days and sunset aperitivo on the terrace.

Tucked between pine trees and low rocky cliffs, Hotel Punta Negra feels wonderfully private yet open to the sea. Two stylish saltwater pools overlook the bay, while stone steps lead down to soft, pale sand and crystal-clear water. Inside, whitewashed walls, cool tiled floors and wide windows keep everything airy and bright \u2013 especially in the sea-facing rooms, where sunset becomes the main event each evening. For couples or families seeking Sardinia’s laid-back north-west coast, Hotel Punta Negra delivers the perfect balance of natural coastline and classic Italian hospitality. It’s around 2 hours from the airport. See more Italy holidays.

Map & location


Alghero, Sardinia, Italy

Hotel Punta Negra sits right on the seafront just outside Alghero, surrounded by fragrant pines and rugged rock shelves that tumble down to sandy coves. You\u2019re away from the bustle enough to really unwind, yet close enough to dip into Alghero\u2019s old town for Gothic churches, narrow cobbled lanes and candlelit trattorie when the mood takes you.

Beach-lovers are spoiled: as well as the little coves directly below the hotel, the wider Alghero area strings together long sweeps like Bombarde Beach, easily reached by local buses or taxi. Boats to the famous Neptune\u2019s Grotto cave system depart from the harbour, so you can turn a simple sightseeing trip into a scenic mini-cruise along the cliffs.

  • Beach direct beachfront access
  • shops, bars & restaurants 800m
  • Alghero resort centre & old town 7km
  • marina (Alghero) 7km
  • Approx. transfer time from airport 2 hours

Facilities

Pool & outdoors


Two outdoor saltwater pools curl around the cliff edge, framed by lawns, pine trees and views across the bay. One pool includes a shallow children\u2019s section, making it easy to keep an eye on little ones, while the other is perfect for longer, lazy laps or simply drifting with a book on a lilo \u2013 inflatables are permitted.

Sunbeds and parasols line the surrounding terraces, and the atmosphere stays blissfully chilled; this isn\u2019t a \u2018loud music by the pool\u2019 kind of place. From the gardens, paths and steps lead straight down to the small sandy coves below, where you can swim in clear, gently-shelving water and snorkel along rocky outcrops.

Spa, sports & wellness


This isn\u2019t a full-on resort with a long activities list, but rather a peaceful coastal escape with a handful of thoughtful touches.

On land, children have a simple playground with a climbing frame, while adults can explore the coastline on foot or by bike (local rental available in the area). The hotel team can help arrange boat trips, island excursions and visits to Alghero\u2019s old town, Neptune\u2019s Grotto and nearby beaches.

Practical extras include a reception offering concierge-style support, luggage storage and baby-friendly items like bottle warmers and kettles on request (some items may have a local charge). There are also facilities to charge mobility scooters.
