Best Family Hotels on Sardinia
With spectacular, soft-sanded beaches and a wild and varied interior, Sardinia is a bit like a country in miniature - and a fantastic place for a family adventure. The beaches are an obvious draw for families, but the opportunities to explore here are what make this a memorable choice - you can explore the historic towns and villages; the lush interior; the prehistoric ruins; the coastline; agricultural centres; or the surrounding ocean. If you’re looking forward to sampling Sardinia’s beaches we have recommendations all the way around the island, but there are lots of family-friendly options in and around Olbia, which is the ferry port and gateway to the Costa Smerelda, and around Caligari. Oristano is a beautiful place to visit with your kids, but the accommodation here is more for honeymooners.
