SETTING & STYLE This property occupies a stunning location overlooking its own sandy cove, the turquoise seas and the remarkable granite formations so typical of this area. Just a few minute walk takes you into the centre of fashionable Baja Sardinia, making the Smeraldo Beach the ideal choice for those wishing to be within easy walking distance of shops and restaurants. Baja Sardinia has a lively square overlooking the main beach and the coast is particularly appealing in this area, characterised by little bays and inlets. There is plenty of choice for excursions to other nearby resorts, including Porto Rotondo and Porto Cervo.   RESTAURANTS & BARS Hotel Smeraldo Beach is comfortably decorated and furnished throughout.
