Cagliari, Italy + Add a trip

When you arrive in this town, perhaps for the first time, you’ll understand why we gave the name Càdelsol Bed and Breakfast in Cagliari (House of the Sun) to our home. We are right in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea, 188Km from the Italian coast and 178Km from the African coast. You will be dazzled by the golden tufa stone in which this ancient town was built. Your attention will be caught by the tall palm trees, magnolias in the parks and the constantly flowering poinsettias, as well as hibiscus and bouganvilia carpeted balconies and doorways. The vegetation thick with lentisk, cistes and bursting yellow broom abundant in the town in mild January. The town and its Marina district are surrounded by the deep blue ocean and the salty scent of the sea begins to lift your spirits and digest the splendour of our ancient history.

The beaches here are absolutely breathtaking. We stayed at Beach Hotel Flamingo Resort http://www.hotelflamingosardinia.com/ They've got a private beach and there are excellent activities for kids...mine keep asking me when we're going back!

Otherworldly place ... beautiful surroundings, quiet comfort, lovely staff, absolutely great cuisine.
