Delighted to find this hotel so close to the sea , we had an excellent day swimming and diving here!

We booked Hotel Vecchia Fonte after reading guests ratings, and then had serious worries that we had got it wrong this time. We worried that Palau was a small town but not a quaint old Sardinian town, by a car park, busy port with ferry boats, but all of our worries were unfounded. Palau is easy to get to from Olbia airport, the hotel very easy to find. The town is a fairly basic small town, but there is some interesting typical Sardinian architecture. Palau is a happy place - there are...

Easy to check, high quality room. Would stay again

Huge room. New hotel. Easy walk to town and beach. Nothing to do with the hotel - you have to reserve a place on the beach.

Great accomodation. Friendly staff. Awesome breakfasts. Room cleaning immaculate. Location is fantastic too, close to the coach park, to the main centre and about 10 minutes walk to the beach. My only one criticism is that the hotel amenities state "guest access to outdoor pool" but this is not the case and so Expedia is misleading. There is no access to a pool. There is a private club pool I found about 10 minutes walk away which was great but you have to pay club membership and then about ...

Wry helpful staff - good location and good restaurant close by.

Beautifully lush, landscaped gardens frame this luxurious designer hotel. Rooms are each set in a generous space and are thoughtfully designed and well appointed. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Excellent breakfast in a smart, airy dining room looking out over the gardens. Nice pool and bar with Happy Hour. I would strongly recommend this hotel.

Really pleased with the hotel and staff, friendly and accommodating. Good location with shops, restaurants and the beach. There is free parking as well.

This property is okay for a last minute one night stay as it is tired and worn out. Our toilet seat was very loose, the shower door didn't fit properly and sleeping on the waterproof undersheet was delightful! We were unable to sit out on our terrace area as the bushes were overgrown and it was crawling with ants. It's overpriced for what you get.

The rooftop terrace was lovely with great views. The food and drink were also excellent, as were the staff. Had a room upgrade which included the use of the spa - the sauna was one of the best I’ve used and also the massages we had on top were amazing. Really liked the location as it was a little out from the centre but made it nicer to walk more.

Brilliant stay. Marco the hotel manager was super helpful thank you

We both loved the setting, the surroundings and the proportion of our accommodations. Well designed, spacious bedroom and ensuite with a large and private covered terrace, like an outside living room. Breakfast was served by the owner on our terrace and was both plentiful and delicious. The pool and loungers were ideal for a morning swim or post beach dip. Town was a 5 minute drive or 20 minute walk which was so convenient, just close enough with all the facilities of a bustling tourist hub,...
