Hotel Brancamaria
I’d pick Hotel Brancamaria for a stay with a pool. Private parking is handy on a road trip.
More about this place
Hotel Brancamaria is a four-star hillside hotel above Cala Gonone, with Gulf of Orosei views and a large outdoor pool. Its position on the approach road offers a quieter base than the harbourfront, with a useful place to unwind after coastal outings or a day in the Supramonte.
Rooms look toward the sea, pool or mountains, and whirlpool baths belong to particular categories. The restaurant, poolside drinks and panoramic setting make time at the hotel worthwhile, while the harbour remains the starting point for boat trips to the gulf’s coves.
The hotel is around 900 metres from the town and marina, rather than directly on the beach. A complimentary scheduled shuttle serves the town’s beaches and harbour; confirm its times against an early sailing. Check the chosen room, meal plan, seasonal pool operation and current parking arrangements before arrival, and allow for the uphill return if walking.
