Hotel Capo d'Orso Thalasso and Spa: A Floating Restaurant on the Sardinian Coast

Hotel Capo d'Orso Thalasso and Spa occupies a spectacular granite headland at Cala Capra near Palau, on the northern tip of Sardinia looking across to the Maddalena archipelago and Garibaldi's island of Caprera. With its own coves, thalasso spa and views over the Costa Smeralda's fabled waters, it is one of the island's most romantic addresses.

The dining is genuinely special. Île Flottante is a fine-dining restaurant on a wooden platform floating above the sea, serving seafood by chef Salvatore Iannone; Il Paguro celebrates Gallura cuisine and the catch of the day; the all-day Olivastri sets Sardinian flavors among olive and juniper trees with a live harpist; and L'Approdo turns out wood-fire Neapolitan pizza.

For a romantic, seafood-led Sardinian stay, Capo d'Orso is a standout.
