Baglioni Resort Cala del Porto 

We arrived at this hotel and were greeted warmly. Strange welcome drink ….there was a bottle of bubbly and bottles of water. We were only offered water! Expected slightly more from a 5* hotel. We were then taken to our room which had a lovely view of the marina. However, when we looked in the bathroom, the bottom of the bath was badly chipped and rusty just where you would stand to take a shower. The bath taps were also rusty and there was a hair ( not ours!) in one of the basins. To be fair, staff acted quickly and very kindly upgraded us to a lovely suite. The pool was well tended with a life guard and the surrounding garden and flowers were spectacular. Our main gripe was not the quality of the food ( which was absolutely delicious) but the monotony of the menu that did not change for the four nights we were there. I ate the same main course three times. The wine was well chilled but expensive. I would recommend booking bed and breakfast, eating in once or twice and then sampling the many restaurants in the marina. Breakfast was good with plenty of fruit etc on offer. There is scrambled egg and bacon but if you want eggs cooked a different way, it is extra. The hotel provides a free shuttle service to the beach resort of Hildago which is about 5 minutes away. The hotel can book your sun beds ( they have a concession of three pitches) for 50 euros per day. We did this once but on the second day, the hotel had no sun beds left so we booked direct with Hildago at a cost of 45 euros per day. Probably best to book direct with the beach resort then! We didn’t think that this hotel merited 5*’s as obviously some upgrading is needed and there should be a better choice at dinner. What we would say is that the staff are lovely, especially all the girls on the front desk who are always friendly, smiling and helpful.

My husband and I spent the best weekend at this hotel! The room was so cozy, with a stunning sunset view from the balcony. The welcome drink, the luxurious concierge and the very friendly receptionist made us feel special. Breakfast included fresh fruits, cheeses, rolls and aromatic coffee. Hot pancakes and snacks, fresh juices, prosciutto and much more - you will be impressed by how delicious and beautiful everything is!

The rooms are soo cozy and beautifully styled, and the restaurant is a foodies paradise. Every meal was unforgettable, especially homemade pasta! The staff here goes above and beyond, always smiling, always ready to help. They really made our stay extra special!

Super service from night-end hotel! We booked a couples’ massage, and it was pure relaxation. The dinner was incredible, delicious food, a big wine list and a beautiful sunset. This place is perfect for a romantic escape. Couldn’t have wished for a better experience.

From the gorgeous pool to the private beach, every corner of this place is perfect for relaxing. Every evening we had dinner at the restaurant with incredible sunset view… it is postcard!! The very beautiful and cozy rooms create the feeling that you are participating in the filming of an Italian movie. An incredible experience! And I would really like to mention the very attentive and highly professional staff! Thank you all! You have made our vacation unforgettable!
