Laconia Village is tucked into the peaceful La Conia area of Cannigione, a former fishing village turned relaxed seaside town on Sardinia’s north coast. The hotel overlooks the Gulf of Arzachena, with low-rise buildings stepping down towards the seafront.

You’re a short, easy stroll from several coves and small sandy beaches, with New Laconia Beach closest and Spiaggia di La Conia just a little further along the promenade. Cannigione itself is around 2km away – close enough for an evening wander to the harbour, gelato bars and trattorie, but far enough to keep things calm back at base.

From here you can take boat trips around the Maddalena archipelago, day-trip to Costa Smeralda’s iconic bays or simply beach-hop along the north-coast shoreline.

New Laconia Beach (hotel concession): approx. 350m
Spiaggia di La Conia: approx. 450m
Spiaggia Bianca: approx. 1.4km
Cannigione resort centre & harbour: approx. 2km
Nearest shops: approx. 2km

Approx. transfer time from airport: 2 hours (from Olbia – OLB)

Cannigione, Sardinia, Italy

The main buffet restaurant keeps things relaxed and family-friendly, serving Mediterranean and international favourites at breakfast, lunch and dinner. Expect plenty of pasta and pizza alongside salads, grilled meats and simple dishes for children, all in a bright, informal space with highchairs available.

A central bar (typically open roughly 09:30–00:00) looks after everything from morning coffees to pre-dinner aperitivi and post-show nightcaps, with a mix of local and international drinks.

On Half Board Plus you’ll usually get buffet breakfast and dinner, with local wine and water included at mealtimes. Full Board Plus typically adds buffet lunch as well, again with wine and water – ideal if you plan to spend most days by the pool or at the nearby beaches.

Dress codes may be smart-casual in the evenings and exact opening times, inclusions and any reservation requirements can vary by season and board plan. Always check the latest information in resort. What All Inclusive typically includes.

The heart of the hotel is the outdoor freshwater pool, edged with sunbeds and a separate children’s section so younger guests can splash in shallower water. Do note that swimming caps are mandatory in the pool – a common rule in Italy – so it’s worth packing your own.

The main pool usually operates from around mid-April to mid-October, weather permitting, with a sunbathing terrace that catches the Sardinian rays through the day.

When you want sand between your toes, New Laconia Beach is roughly 350m away. Here the hotel operates a concession between late May and late September, offering sunbeds and umbrellas for a daily fee (prices vary by date range and are payable locally, subject to availability). In high summer this is a big plus, as public beaches can get busy and shaded spots go fast.

A little further along you’ll find Spiaggia di La Conia and, within a short drive, Spiaggia Bianca and other coves with the clear, turquoise water this coast is famous for.

Laconia Village keeps things simple on the sports side, with a football area ideal for impromptu five-a-side matches or children burning off energy, plus organised team games as part of the activities programme in high season.

Daytime entertainment runs from early June to mid-September and can include light fitness, poolside games and small competitions. Evenings often feature live music and family-friendly shows on selected nights, with some of the programme presented in Italian for a nice local flavour.

Around the property you’ll find a 24-hour style reception and the usual holiday essentials, and there’s free Wi-Fi throughout so you can plan day trips or keep teens connected. There is no full spa on site, but the quiet surroundings, sea air and easy access to Cannigione’s waterfront give the resort a restful feel between family activities.
