Hotel Villa Canu

the hotel is in a great location, very central to cabras. We visited their restaurant too, il caminetto - a must visit! Amazing food, mixed seafood starters, followed by the tastiest grey mullet and beef steak. We hired e-bikes to visit the ancient ruins at san Giovanni de sinis, another beautiful place. The hotel helped recommend these things to us. The room was comfortable, had a mini fridge and hot shower, the pool a lovely touch, good to take a dip from the hot weather. Cabras itself I would recommend as a base as there isn’t much to it! But lots around it.

The breakfast was quite limited to sweet choices but we have found that in all the hotels we stayed in here!

This hotel is truly exceptional. We forgot our baby’s vest and they called us back immediately notifying us. When we arrived to collect it we were then super stressed by our child having been in the car for too long and they welcomed us back and let us use the pool to relax before returning to our journey. Incredible staff, amazing pool and stunning 10/10 fresh breakfast from croissants to home made torta della nonna. We loved it. Thank you so much

The only downside was the bed. Not very comfortable and we struggle to use the cot provided as it was too deep. Not sure it was the mattress or our backs but we both woke up with a terrible back pain.

From the moment I stepped into the hotel, I felt like I was at home. Sara at the reception desk checked me in, showed me around, and directed me to my single room. The room was just as shown on the hotel’s website, featuring Sardinian textiles (bed linens and curtains), a single bed, a spacious wardrobe housing a mini-bar and a safe, desk, television, air-con, and a bath with shower. The breakfast selection was abundant, featuring assorted fresh pastries, fruit juice, fresh fruits, yoghurts, cereals, cheeses, etc. One of the owners, Tiziana, explained to me that she and her husband had inherited the original home whose style is known as a “campidanese” – a farmhouse, where a family lived and worked the rural land at the rear. Tiziana and her husband later cleared the rural land and constructed several buildings that are currently the hotel rooms. The delightful swimming pool at the rear of the property is functional for doing small laps, with the sun streaming from the morning to the late afternoon. There are also shaded areas. The hotel reception is closed from 10 p.m. to 7.30 a.m., but that didn’t stop Tiziana from personally calling me at 6.30 a.m. so I could get on the road to catch a flight to Alghero. A 3-star property with 5-star service!!!

Cannot think of anything I didn't like.

When you drive into Cabras you are going to seriously question why you want to stay there! It is a dated and rather unkept town. However, this hotel is a gem. It is well located for the towns few bars and restaurants. Parking is easy and free. Breakfast is extremely good and not just a typically sweet Italian offering. Beds good. Nice terrace by small pool.

Rooms are a bit small

It’s a very sweet and small hotel with a very beautiful pool in the garden. The furniture in the rooms is a bit old and the mattresses is not very comfy, but it was fine for us. It was all very clean every day. It’s a very good location to do some exploring of the west side of Sardinia and the town itself has a few nice restaurants as well (we liked L’Oliveto most). The staff is super friendly and helpful whenever we needed something. Rooms 110, 111, 112 are recommendable because their terrace has a nice view to the pool.

Unfortunately our room was a bit moldy. It must be in the walls because it smelled really badly sometimes. The walls are freshly painted, but at some spots we smelled the mould. The cleaning ladies are extraordinarily accommodating though and tried some Odeur eliminator, that helped a little with the smell.

The staff were great, breakfast was simple but really fresh and well presented, the pool was compact but never crowded and the rooms were clean, comfortable and the aircon worked really well.

Thank you for the late check out ! (11am instead of 10am) Well welcomed, nice breakfast with an outside terasse. Very near from the center (even tho the city is mall)

Bathroom could be more modern. An elevator could be usefull.

Lovely pool & coartyard + very nice breakfast and staff

Room was a little outdated, but still very nice I think warm lights would make it a lot more cosy then the white lights

The pool is truly amazing and the room was super clean and comfortable. Staff was very nice and helpful. I’d also recommend having breakfast here as they had quite a large selection of good and it all tasted great. Had an amazing stay all round!

The hotel was lovely and the garden and pool area. The room was adequate but the en-suite was basic and quite old.

The en-suite, too small and a little dowdy.
