Baia di Conte
Alghero | Sardinia
⭐⭐⭐⭐
Baia di Conte spreads along a sheltered bay just outside Alghero, framed by the wild beauty of Porto Conte national park. This low-rise, village-style resort brings together a private sandy beach, three outdoor pools, a wellness centre and seriously good sports facilities, making it an easy-going base for active couples and families who still want Sardinia’s trademark sea views and sense of place.
Think pine-fringed coastline, milky-blue shallows and a sweep of golden sand reserved just for guests – Baia di Conte has the classic Sardinian setting nailed. Low-rise whitewashed buildings are dotted through lawns and Mediterranean gardens, with panoramas across Porto Conte bay and plenty of space around the three pools and sports courts. Inside, rooms are simple and stylish, keeping the focus firmly on the sea and the landscape outside.
For couples and families keen to mix Sardinia’s coastal drama with easy resort comforts, Baia di Conte is a smart choice.

Location | Baia di Conte
Location
Baia di Conte enjoys a privileged position in the Porto Conte area on Sardinia’s rugged north-west coast, just outside the characterful town of Alghero. The resort itself is tucked between pine woods and a curve of pale sand, so you can wander straight from breakfast to the beach or explore coastal paths and lookouts inside the national park.
Head into Alghero and you’ll swap sea and scrub for Gothic cathedrals, honey-coloured bastion walls, boutique-lined lanes and a lively marina filled with yachts and fishing boats. It’s a great spot for long seafood lunches – this is one of the island’s best places to try Sardinian specialities and ultra-fresh fish.

Restaurants and Bars
Full Board at Baia di Conte keeps days easy, with breakfast, lunch and dinner typically served buffet-style in the main restaurant. Expect a mix of Italian and international dishes, plenty of salads and pasta, and family-friendly favourites alongside regional recipes.
There’s usually show-cooking at peak times and a good choice of hot and cold options at breakfast. Bars in the resort and down by the pool keep you topped up with coffees, soft drinks and sundowners between meals (drinks are normally payable locally unless included in your specific package).
Dress codes in the main restaurant lean towards relaxed resort-smart in the evenings, and gluten-free or vegetarian choices are normally available – let us know your requirements in advance so we can request them with the hotel.
Pool Areas and Beach
Cool off in three outdoor pools, including two that are tailored for younger swimmers. The main pool is spacious, framed by loungers and parasols, and catches the sun for most of the day, while the dedicated children’s pools make life easier with little ones in tow. Pool facilities and depth vary, so always check which suits your family best.
The star of the show is the private sandy beach just in front of the resort. The bay is gently shelving, so paddling and swimming feel safe and inviting on calm days. Sunbeds from the third row back are generally available for guests, while the first and second rows can be reserved locally for a fee (subject to availability) if you want pole-position by the waterline.
Spa, Sports and Other Facilities
Sports fans are well covered at Baia di Conte. Expect multiple courts and pitches for tennis and other activities, plus organised games and tournaments during the day in peak season. Whether you’re more about a friendly five-a-side or a focused hit on the tennis court, there’s plenty of space to move.
When it’s time to wind down, the on-site wellness centre is your go-to for massages and treatments (local charges apply). There’s also the simple pleasure of wandering straight from the hotel into Porto Conte national park – perfect for sunrise walks, short hikes to viewpoints and spotting local flora and birdlife.
Other practical touches include a 24-hour reception, luggage storage and on-site shops for beach and holiday essentials. The hotel is also a Certified Sustainable Hotel, which means initiatives like energy-saving lighting, reduced plastics and local sourcing have been independently assessed.
