The Accommodation

Opened in 2008, the hotel has been redesigned with the use of materials from the island, combined with modern art and ceramic decorations.

There are just 28 guest rooms and suites, suitable for both couples and families, on the ground and first floor, individually furnished with contemporary influences from Sardinia and the Far East. All the rooms have furnished terrace or balcony with garden view, en suite bath and/or shower room with hairdryer, telephone, minibar, air conditioning, safe, satellite TV, internet connection and beach towels.

The Restaurant & Bars

The hotel bar has an indoor lounge and outside terrace and the Restaurant Montera offers guests a buffet breakfast and daily dinner menu (extra cost, hotel guests receive a 10% discount) serving both local and international cuisine in an elegant atmosphere, accompanied by an extensive local wine list and personal service.

There is also a beach bar & grill with outside terrace serving lunch and drinks throughout the day overlooking the sea.

The Facilities

A freshwater pool is situated in the pretty gardens and is surrounded by a terrace with sunbeds and parasols.

The beach is just 100m away accessed via the underpass in the gated parking area and through a pine wood where there is a reserved area of beach with sunbeds and parasols for hotel guests use.  The Beach Bar & Grill serves guests lunch and drinks throughout the day and there is a sea front gazebo for massages and treatments (extra cost).

The reception staff offer hotel and local information and can organise excursions including boat trips to the Golfo di Orosei and nature tours in the Supramonte mountains. There is also a small gift shop and local art and ceramics on display.

COVID-19 Protocols

We are pleased to confirm that this hotel has put COVID-19 protocols in place to ensure compliance with the regulations introduced by the Italian government in order to ensure the maximum safety and security of its guests which is detailed below.

The measures introduced will apply to both the facilities provided by the hotel and its services to guests.  Their implementation will be closely monitored and controlled in order to ensure the heathiest environment in which guests can continue to enjoy their holiday in the confidence that their risks to exposure to the COVID-19 virus is at a minimum. 

We must point out that the implementation of these measures may result in minor changes to the facilities available and certain services offered by the hotel as described on our website and in our brochure and we therefore invite our clients to contact us if they have any concerns or queries in this regard.

Clearly the changes in practices and availability of facilities may result in a difference to the guests’ experience as would otherwise be the case, although a reduced number of clients may actually result in a better service being afforded to guests.

The Local Area

The hotel is located in Santa Maria Navarrese, a small coastal town situated in the Ogliastra region on the dramatic east coast of Sardinia, approximately 145km from both Cagliari in the south and Olbia in the north east. 

The town has a lovely bay with a beach, marina and a selection of shops, café bars, restaurants and pizzerias. There are daily boat trips to the renowned beautiful beaches along the east coast including Cala Goloritzè, Cala Mariolu, Cala Sisine and Cala Luna.

The larger town of Tortoli is about 8km away and the scenic ‘Il Trenino Verde’ (Little Green narrow-gauge train) can be accessed from Arbatax which is a similar distance.

Huw's View

This is a stylish, small hotel off the beaten track, ideal for those who are looking to get away from it all and experience real Sardinia.

The Lanthia offers an ideal location close to both the beach and the town, but also with a car or boat trip guests can explore this beautiful deserted coastline. 

The staff are very friendly and the restaurant, with personal table service, has daily changing menus using local seasonal ingredients. There are also some good local restaurants nearby.

Car hire essential.
