Hotel Arathena  

In the heart of San Pantaleo village, this charming 4-star hotel sits a few minutes' drive from the famed Costa Smeralda beaches — about 20 km from Olbia and roughly 10 km from Portisco. Centrally located on Via Pompei, it’s a pet-friendly base for exploring North Sardinia.

The property feels like a warm, traditional borgo framed by the mountains of San Pantaleo, offering a tranquil, nature-forward vibe. Rooms blend Sardinian character with modern comforts — A/C, mini-bar, safe, TV and bathrooms with bathtub or shower; a selection of rooms also include balconies or terraces and a few extras like coffee/tea makers and hair dryers.

Soak in the outdoor pool, lounge on the sun terrace and sip at the poolside bar amid garden views. There’s a massage room and access to diving clubs and nearby beaches, plus a tours desk to help plan excursions — expect sea-breeze mornings and mountain-backed sunsets.

24-hour reception, concierge and a tour/transport desk help with transfers and shuttle bookings. Complimentary Wi‑Fi in public areas, parking, safety deposit boxes, laundry and room service keep stays smooth and simple.

On-site restaurant, lobby bar, cafe and a poolside bar serve breakfast and drinks throughout the day. Menus highlight local Sardinian flavors, making it easy to enjoy regional cuisine without leaving the hotel.
