Reviews for Residence Tanca Della Torre

Review 1：Italian sockets for provided EUROPINIAN MICROWAVE, hair dryer , kettle , etc. it's like " we have it , but you can't use it". One day without electricity is not good aswell( specially with one year old baby). No washing mashine, baby cot was delivered on the third day, appartaments on the picture looks very, VERY DIFFERENT from reality. No way I'll come there again.

Review 2：Young men on reception and maitanance guy. I really felt sorry for them, they dealing with lots of complaints about appartaments .

Review 3：We stayed at the apartment for 2 nights on leaving at morning a local had come at us shouting and taking photos and claiming he will sue us for what we had no idea later we found out someone keeps leaving rubbish around yet we did clean the apartment before our leave and left all our rubbish in the apartment as told by the reception I won't stay there any more also there we ants in the apartment

Review 4：Bedrooms are tiny, also maybe new set of drinking cups could be included in kitchen ..

Review 5：Really nice terrace with see view, apartment includes freezer as well.Is close to beach ( 5 min ) and isola rossa is packed with eateries and supermarkets.

Review 6：The apartment from the office and free wifi 500 was meters away. The office is available 12 hours a day, not 24. The shower cabin was very little for average adult. One of the front door not open, and the woodworker can't fix it. The refrigerator was not working properly. The keeper was very unfriendly and not helpful. The bed was little and very uncomfortable.

Review 7：Nice place.

Review 8：I do not know how they get those high ratings... Probably marking it by themselves. No matching cups, no glasses, everything is old and greasy. Pot and pans are pilling off the "non-stick" coat and you end up with black "flakes" in your food - cancer alert right there. The bed covers are nasty, old, dirty... We were so disappointed... The stuff does try to make it right by you - but they just need to redo it all, period. The outside stairs were painted to cover up black mold with some paint that ruined my children's clothes... Just horrible.

Review 9：The La Marineda beach is nicer than Isola Rossa.

Review 10：We found the bed to be a bit hard. could have done with 2 more pillows! Could have had some cereal bowls or fruit dishes and a salad spinner.

Review 11：This was a very clean, roomy, attractive apartment with a good shower, and a lovely balcony with view. Extremely good value too. we would certainly go there again

Review 12：L'appartamento dove siamo stati noi era al piano terra e dalla terrazza avevamo vista mare. Posizione tranquillavicino a tutte le comodita' e ad un piccolo parco giochi. Staff gentilissimo e sempre disponibile

Review 13：A smaller bedroom was too small just for double bad. Spring and soft bad. Wi-fi connection at reception very unstable.

Review 14：Locality, beautiful terrase with a view on the sea, own parking place

Review 15：These are VERY minor, easily dismissed compared to the good points: The room pictured was not the room given to us, BUT I imagine this is because they were all slightly different. Lastly, no kettle, but again this is very minor, because we just boiled water using a pot. Lastly, wi-fi is only at the reception, not in your room. Again this was not a major problem for us.

Review 16：Staff were fantastic, helpful and competent. Apartment was really clean, comfy bed, good bathroom and kitchen facilities, with a lovely view. Beach, supermarket and restaurants within walking distance. Atmosphere was awesome.

Review 17：We got a password of wi-fi, but there was no wi-fi signal in our rooms or outdor. But it is maybe even better - we were able to break away from the internet :)

Review 18：We stayed here for 4 nights. It's a great hotel with a wonderful view to the sea. The rooms are clean, clear, well equiped and quiet. All of them haved big balconys with a furniture. The city have a few local shops and restaurants. Near you can find some beaches and charming dock.

Review 19：Public transport is a nightmare. We don't drive and had to get connecting buses from the airport. Took about 7 hours and the bus dropped us 3 kilometers from the town in the pitch black and we got lost...The staff at the apartments came and picked us up though

Review 20：The staff at the apartments were so friendly, they bent over backwards to make sure you had a good stay. They gave us great advice on where to eat etc.

Review 21：Bed needs replacing.

Review 22：Location of property. Friendliness and helpfulness of the staff. Constant hot water. Very clean. Good basic facilities. Great value for a low cost holiday.

Review 23：No oven, though not sure I would have used it. No toaster, would have used it. Cutlery a bit bendy.

Review 24：Staff very friendly and helpful. Apartment clean and very little noise from other apartments (it was end of season so may be a factor). Washing machine was nice to have. Would stay here again with no worries.

Review 25：lack of information on the website about the actual facillities and overall "self contained" nature of the apartments. I was asked for a fee of 10 euros for clean laundry, which i refused to pay. no housekeeping, you have to clean apartment yourself, but no actual cleaning products or equipment was available i,e a mop and bucket, dustpan and brush e.t.c

Review 26：the town itself is very nice, quiet and relaxing...

Review 27：These appartmen are located over 3 floors - you will need to climb the stairs a lot:) between bedrooms and kitchen, so if you will be with small children or older persons just keep that in mind.

Review 28：simple and clean. No deposit was taken. good location in small town - food shop and cafe are in 2 min walking distance, beach - 5 min.

Review 29：1St Apartment was very dark, felt damp,was stinking of fish and wedidn't feel safe there. Wifi was only available at reception areawhich was 10 minutes walk from 2nd Apartment. And also signal wasn'tgreat when more than one person was using it. Limited number of staffcould speak English and were constantly smoking in front reception.Advertising of water park and another sport activities is verymisleading ( pictures at booking.com website). Yes it is available butat a cost ( but not part of complex).

Review 30：Being able to move to another accommodation that cost an extra 50euros.Second accommodation better but not that great best thing about itwas right next to beach. Beaches were good in and around Isola Rossa.

Review 31：Noise from neighbours - maybe we just got unlucky! Bins are located at the end of the street (you have to ask where they are) and are only open from 8pm-11pm - not very helpful for a 10am depature!

Review 32：good location, not far from the beach. Shops all within walking distance. Staff gave us bed linen for free.

Review 33：The evening music from across the hotel was sometimes a bit loud, but it stopped at 12 o´clock midnight or earlier.

Review 34：We stayed for 14 days and enjoyed the apartment.It´s basic and clean and everything was working.

Review 35：need some sort of comfy chair/sun lounger not just folded up sofa bed. also few things broken in first apartment. better when moved.

Review 36：location and helpful staff. very quick to sort out problems. beautiful place and near to all facilities.

Review 37：The office to check in was down the road and wasn't easy to find at first

Review 38：Nice Decor Split level 2 beds & bathroom apartment. With all the facilities we needed but never needed as we ate out all the time but it was nice to know it was available. BBQ with coal on top terrace with seaview. Downstair has a large indoor terrace too. Very comfortable and clean on a nice road within walking distance to all the restaurants/bars and shops. Not sure if it was apt 11 or 42 as we had the choice of 2 entrances(Bassi Rossa)

Review 39：I wish it had some form of air conditioner or fans.

Review 40：I loved the kitchenette. The rooms were more than enough for me and my family. It was close to some beautiful beaches and scenery. Well worth the money!

Review 41：don't forget that you have only one toilet roll :) - buy it more !

Review 42：- Great service - Great place 100m from Isola Rossa centre - Fully equipped kitchen - Fish shops with fresh sea food on same street - Two sunny, sandy beaches - Try pizzas in cocordillus restaurant (sea food especially)

Review 43：Brilliant apartment, spacious, 1 minute from supermarkets, beach, restaurants but nice and quiet !! Look forward to next time and have recommended to family...thank you

Review 44：Strange garbage removal schedule, so we had to pack our garbage and take it with us to throw it away in the nearest city.

Review 45：Apartment was fantastic - big, comfortable, great view, very clean and amazing value for money. Very friendly staff, interesting town, nice beaches nearby.

Review 46：No wifi - available only in the office, which is in a completely different building.

Review 47：Location, size of property, easy parking

Review 48：Beds were incredibly uncomfortable and sank due to weak springs. Confusing recycling program.

Review 49：Good location, clean apartment, freezer.

Review 50：Broken sofa bed...was repaired after first night. Lack of WiFi in the apartments.

Review 51：Location,location, location :)

Review 52：No air conditioning

Review 53：Beautyful please. A lot of shops , nice beach and good staff

Review 54：Spacious apartment, nice terrace with beautiful seaview, great location and above all that extremely kind and helpful staff.

Review 55：the situation is good.

Review 56：Good service and a very beautiful place.

Review 57：30 degree late in October, lovely environment to stay in with the most majestic beaches. Very happy children and glad to be off the grid for a week!

Review 58：nice place and staff, beautyful town!

Review 59：Small parking place Old bed in second bedroom, i slept in livingroom on sofa :)

Review 60：Quiet Garden Terace Good place for road trip

Review 61：Not around the place to throw garbage No internet at the apartments

Review 62：Personal of residence

Review 63：nothing

Review 64：everything

Review 65：El matalàs molt incomode

Review 66：Ubicació, poble i entorn i la terrasseta

Review 67：-internet in whole Isola Rosa quite unreliable

Review 68：-friendly stuff -gave us sheets and towels for free (otherwise 16€ per person)

Review 69：No wifi. Very stupid system of garbage utilization: they just give you a sheet with instructions where you should deploy the garbage, what is in fact in an other far street and work on certain days and hours. They might have problems in accepting foreign credit cards and there is only one ATM in this small village.

Review 70：We have celebrated my girlfiend's birthday and asked therefore a sea-view room, what was given to us by the administration. That was great! a real great terrace. Nice appartment with all facilities (ask for linens and towels). Supermarkets and restaurants nearby, very close to the sea, however the beach is dirty and not that good, but there are about 11kmtrs away very nice sandy beaches. Free parking in front of the appartment.

Review 71：I would say because of its location a hire car is definitely necessary, it is far away from everything that you may want to visit i.e Porto Cervo (Nightlife and tourist attractions) but worth it in any case.

Review 72：It is such value for money! At first I was so sceptical because of how cheap it is but honestly for people who enjoy the sea, and tranquility it is such a great deal. The apartments are well equipped and most have a sea view! The little town is very non touristy but very beautiful with beaches in walking distance! Absolutely loved it!

Review 73：There weren't enough kitchen utensils for the amount of people we were with, and no dish towels etc. However, that's the only complaint!

Review 74：We very much appreciated the amazingly beautiful location and the very helpful and friendly staff!

Review 75：Very basic kitchen, no oven. Town is very quiet out of season. You will need a car to travel anywhere else and the village is very small.

Review 76：Good value for money

Review 77：At the time we booked, the photos showed it will be two flours, but when we arrived saw that the second flour was closed. No view from the apartment, because it is in the inside yard. Sometimes we were out of hot water and had to wait for the boiler to heat it.

Review 78：It was clean, well equipted kitchen - found almost everything we needed. Nice, small town, few shops, restaurants, several beaches nearby. Bed linen and towels were for free. To sum up, it was quite good and cheap.

Review 79：Could do with more restaurants and bars. The distance from the airport is an hour and a half drive. Therefore car hire is a must. Not for the faint hearted - the local drivers are reckless.

Review 80：The best thing about this place is its remoteness and close proximity to the beautiful beaches. Its unspoilt, not touristy, relaxed and peaceful. Even the beach peddlers understand 'No' When I go on holiday I like to feel away from the trappings of Britian, urgo I like to avoid Brits Abroad locations. Here you hardly hear an English accent and only come across the loveliest of our nation. If you love Pizza then this is crust is as good as it gets.

Review 81：Only one thing, my wife found the bed quite hard. It was firm, fine for me, but may be uncomfortable for others.

Review 82：The apartment was just what my wife and I needed. We paid the extra for the sea view which is definitely worth the money. Breakfast on the terrace every morning, lazy afternoons after the beach. The terrace is big enough for 4-6 to dine on if required. There are plenty of supermarkets and pizzerias within 5 minutes, the beach is 5 mins, the walk over the headland to Spaggia Marinedda 20 mins. The apartment is equipped with all the equipment you need to cook a meal, no kettle, but boiling water on the gas hob for teas is just as easy. It was clean, great location, good value. There's no aircon so keep the shutters closed during the day and it is fine, the terraces get fantastic afternoon sun! Isola Rossa has keep its charm (tourism seems to be just creeping in) and not much English is spoken (we think this is a good thing!). We got by with a very basic grasp of italian (ordering pizza, beers, wine etc). All the beaches are worth a visit, Marinedda is good for a morning walk, then coffee at Massimo's cafe, right on the sand! We found Restaurante La Torre to be our favourite pizzeria, good value, and despite some choice reviews on other sites, the food and wine was excellent. I tried 4 different pizzas, each delicious! Crocodillius was more like a holiday camp, we stayed for one drink but preferred the more tradional bars/restaurants found in the town. One last thing...Use the location on google maps to get keys/linen from the reception. We stumbled upon the apartment itself, which is a 5 min walk from the reception.

Review 83：We had to provide everything necessary for using the apartment - dish soap, toilet paper, trash bags, etc. Perhaps I should've known that in booking an apartment, so no strikes against them for that - just an inconvenience I didn't take into account in planning our trip. If you're looking to be taken care of and relax care-free during your stay, I would suggest a hotel to avoid cooking, cleaning, buying household items, etc. Tanca della Torre was great for what it provided and I would recommend it for those accustomed and interested in an apartment.

Review 84：The locations is fabulous - only about three blocks from the promenade and beach. Our apartment was at the top of the hill, so it was a bit of a push with our double stroller. However, since we were at the top, the ocean view from our balcony was great! We had a one bedroom apartment, with a sleeper sofa in the living room. The bed was ok comfort wise. Be aware that bed and bathroom linen is provided upon request only. The apartment was clean and large enough to suite our needs (me, my husband and our two small children). This was our first time staying in an apartment during vacation and I'm not sure I'd do it again, but it's not because of this facility. Since there is no cleaning crew, no restaurant for meals, and all the other "luxuries" of a hotel, staying in an apartment is more work than I'd like, personally. Something to consider. There are several restaurants along the promenade which had ok food and typical European service (slow but ample). There are also a couple of shops that offer good quality gifts that aren't cheap or too souvenir-ish. The beach there is great, though it seemed a bit crowded for our taste most days. The water is calm and warm, and the sand clean. We used our rental car to venture up north along the coastline and found some marvelous secluded beaches that were more to our liking. However, had we stayed longer we definitely would've used the beach near the apartment. If you're looking for exciting night-life, I would suggest another location in Sardegna. If you're like us, traveling with small children and need only a few options for eating and shopping, Isola Rossa is a good area. Overall, I would definitely recommend these apartments and the area.

Review 85：The apartments can look realy different than on the pictures.

Review 86：We stayed there 3 days in june. Isola rossa is a very nice place withgreat beaches around. Especial cala li cossi in Costa paradisso is oneof the most beautiful beaches in europe for me. For the apartments Ihave to say two tings: one that you will not drive around like crazy andwont find the apartment is that you have to stop first at agencia isolarossa wich is located next to a surf shop. The othef thing is that theapartmens can look very different than on the pictures, because they area group of a lot different apartments. But I have to say, we didn'tlike the arpatment that they gave us, and they upgraded us to adifferent one with see view wich we liked. So a big pro for the staff.

Review 87：Took ages to find this as the address given is for the 'agent'located on the seafront (look for the arches). Toilet seat was brokenand some of the furniture was a bit old (a plastic chair collapsed whenmy husband sat on it!) They appear to have a number of apartments withinthis complex? Some people might get a bit bored with the choice ofrestaurants, but we loved it for a 4 day break.

Review 88：Small village so lovely and relaxing. Accommodation very close to thesandy beach. We had beautiful sea views from the front and back of theapartment. Lovely shallow bay and a wonderful family atmosphere inthis village.

Review 89：The room we stayed in was quite noisy as it was only separated by a locked door and the people staying there were loud and had an annoying cough. The kitchen could of been better equipt, for example no bottle opener and only 1 dinner knife. The office in which you had to check in was quite difficult to find as it was not obvious where it was located. we had to show two other groups were it was when we were walking around Isola Rossa.

Review 90：The residence was good value for money, it was basic but clean. It had a lovely outdoor terrace and we had a view of the mountains. It was near two sandy beaches and there were shops and supermarkets in walking distance. There were lots of interesting restaurants with fantastic views.

Review 91：Everything was perfect .The place is quiet and the view is beautiful.Beaches are 5 minutes walk and the shops and cafetaria are very closed.I really will recommend that place .

Review 92：I would like the site to have showed real pictures of the property verses the "model" unit which really didn't portray the actual unit we got. Otherwise it was fine.

Review 93：The location was centrally located in the town. Easy walk to grocery stores and dining. Large one bedroom apartment with all necessary cooking it utensils. Great hot shower and plenty of soap.

Review 94：There was a lack of attention to detail in the appartment; items were either missing or not working. Beware, the area can be quite windy, and rained a lot whilst we visited in May. The tourist season hadn't really started, so the area was very quiet.

Review 95：The appartment is spacious and looked very nice. We had a lovely view from the terrace and the appartment. Restaurants and shops are a 5 minute walk away. The local beach is a 10 minute walk and Marinedda beach is a 20 minute walk. Isola Rossa is a good base if you want to explore the North West and North East of Sardinia.

Review 96：really cute suite equipped with a decent coffee machine and everything you need to make your own food. location couldn't be more central in Alghero

Review 97：No meal possibility, no WIFI

Review 98：Quiet location. Very helpful and friendly stuff. Well equipped kitchen. Terrace. Parking space in front of the house.

Review 99：Very good value for the money.

Review 100：Roomy, spacious apartments. Great value.

Review 101：no washing machine. Poor sound proofing.

Review 102：roomy apartment close to beach and shops. Use of garage. Sea view and balcony. Fan to keep cool.

Review 103：Wszystko, było rewelacyjnie

Review 104：The location is great if yoy want to visit several places in north-west Sardinia. The apartment is well located near the sea and is very confortable

Review 105：Fantastic quiet fishing village. Great location, sea view, beach, marina, all amenities within easy reach
