We were lucky enough to stay at Agriturismo Saltara for 9 nights. There are a long list of pros, with just a couple of areas of improvement.||||PROS:||1) The people. Between the owners and all of the staff, the people couldn't have been friendlier, and just wanted to make sure you were enjoying your stay and everything was OK.||2) The breakfasts that are included with boarding. We rarely ate again until late afternoon because it was so filling. And we never finished all of it. There is something for everyone - note we were with a vegetarian and she was always stuffed, as well.||3) Beds in the cabins. So comfortable. Firm, but not overly IMO. I have back issues and never had a problem here.||4) Roomy cabins with nice sized bathrooms.||5) There was a mini fridge that they kept stocked with water and soda for free. Very nice!||6) The pool was nice a clean, although a bit cold...||||ROOM FOR IMPROVEMENT:||1) The first night we had the AC on it was so loud and smelly it resulted in poor sleep. We told them after a couple of days, and they did something that got rid of the smell, which was great. Unfortunately the noise was still so loud that every time it turned on it sounded like a plane was taking off and would wake you up. Eventually we just turned it on an hour or two before bed to cool down the room, then turned it off. This mostly worked so it wasn't a big deal. We were there in August, so that's the only reason I'm mentioning it.||2) At night sometimes there was a certain sewer smell when we were hanging out outside by the cabin. Yuck. It wasn't all night, though, but still - pee-yew!||3) We couldn't really eat breakfast on the porch at the restaurant because they had a lot of wasps. They told us they don't sting, but back home they do and they made us a bit nervous.||||All in all I would definitely return and am thankful to our hosts who were very...

Read moreWe stayed here for 6 nights on the 06/06/17 before moving on to the east coast of Sardinia.||||Our first night was pretty much a disaster - but I must add that this was no fault of Saltara. The next morning haven spoken with Natalia - within one hour, our problem was sorted. Now that is exceptional service in this day and age and we completely enjoyed the rest of our stay. The bungalow was lovely, in a cool shady area and was very welcome as it created respite from the heat of the day.||||Breakfast was truly a work of art. Each day a different colourful array of goodies arrived one by one, and different juices each day as well as various coffee options.. All beautifully prepared and presented. Five stars to the kitchen staff and the wonderful lady who served us each morning. ||||The evening meals were open to residents and non residents.. Again, very well presented and totally mouth watering. Served with lovely wine. You could sit inside or out. ||||Natalia and Mario - you have the most wonderful place and we are glad to have shared it for a time.||||If I were to make a small criticism, it would be that umbrellas around the pool area would be very welcome. One member of staff found us an umbrella, but there were no bases! We tended to move position each time the sun moved, but this is very, very minor.||||Would we stay again - yes most definitely! But firstly we need to see more of this beautiful island, then we can...
