This sleek, modern hotel is located in a quiet, residential area on a cliff overlooking the Adriatic. The 40 guest rooms are contemporary and decorated in bold, beach-y blues and yellows; each has a private balcony. The glamorous rooftop provides comfortable lounge areas to enjoy beautiful panoramic views, and the rectangular ocean-view pool has an infinity edge. It's a short walk to the (busy) nearby beach and sleepy main town, but mosts guests choose to drive to explore the surrounding area.

The Veraclub Porto Istana is set among oleander, eucalyptus, and laurel trees in shaded, park-like grounds about 15 minutes outside of Olbia, with views of the islands of Tavolara and Molara. The property has 83 plain bungalows, each with a pleasant covered veranda. There's a small beach with a private area reserved for guests, which can get crowded at times. The food gets good reviews, but some guests have complained that the quality of the rooms is sub-standard for a property that bills itself as four-star.

Popular with local families, the Hotel Palace Lido is is a bit cheaper than many hotels along the Riviera.

With a private beach on the Lido di Savio, daily kid-centered entertainment, an on-site pediatrician, and a cruise ship-like abundance of food and drinks, the Hotel Palace Lido offers a ton of convenient and worthwhile amenities.

To call the four-pearl Su Gologone quirky or charming would be an understatement. Nestled at the tranquil foot of the Supramonte hills, surrounded by forests, the hotel might look like a quiet country retreat, but it is awash with a riot of color from countless works of art created by local artisans, who host on-site workshops and offer classes. The 68 classically Sardinian rooms are similarly adorned with art, as well as embroidered linens, minibars, and flat-screen TVs. Suites add high-end amenities like jetted bathtubs or private terraces with hot tubs. Additionally, there are a spa and gym, a large outdoor pool, and free buffet breakfast served in one of two eateries. However, some past guests have complained of visible wear and chaotic dining experiences. Travelers who prefer to be near the coast should consider Club Hotel Marina Country.

With natural hot water springs on-site, a large, modern spa offering a wide variety of relaxation, wellness, and health treatments, and a large 24-hour outdoor pool area, Hotel Terme Capasso is focused on the spa experience. Although the property feels large and expansive, there are only 39 guest rooms, all of which are spacious and comfortable. The restaurant focuses on traditional Mediterranean dishes, and offers free breakfast. While the property features two pools open 24 hours a day and a large outdoor space, the spa and thermal springs are open to the public during the day, which can create crowds. Day-pass guests, however, must leave the property in the evening.

The mid-range Agriturismo Fattoria Lavacchio provides a quintessential Tuscany retreat with vineyards, olive groves, a windmill, a winery, horse stalls, and a ceramics workshop. There are also a beautiful modern pool, a restaurant and poolside snack bar, and a kids’ club. The property has an assortment of 25 rooms, suites, villas, and apartments, with antique exposed beams, minibars, flat-screen TVs, free Wi-Fi, and views of the Tuscan hills. Rooms in the main house, though, are reportedly noisy. Apartments and villas -- removed from the main house -- offer more privacy.

Located in a secluded area of northern Sardinia, the mid-range Hotel Residence Baiaverde is a traditional, old-fashioned resort for families seeking a quiet, good-value-for-money place by the beach. It offers guests a choice of 137 suites or cabins with cooking facilities (not all of which are air-conditioned), as well as a range of summer camp-style activities (archery, swimming lessons, etc.). Food, like the rooms, is simple but good, and though the property is dated, it's mostly well-maintained. There's not much in the immediate area, but there are several historic sights within driving distance. Those looking for something a little less sleepy might try the three-pearl Marmorata Village, which offers all-inclusive options and more activities.
