Great rural beach hideaway!
We had a great stay at Baia Cea in late September. Carmen the owner, is very hands on and baked us fresh bread for our arrival. It was our honeymoon, and on very short notice the receptionist had left some heart shaped cookies in our room and decorated it a bit. I'm gluten free, and they were very accommodating for breakfast and thoughtful for dinner-- please do inform them before your stay so they can prepare! The beach was a very close drive and not too far to walk-- it, like most other beaches in Sardegna, was stunning. There is a restaurant on the property that focuses on Sicilian land fare (reservation required by mid afternoon) and then an a la carte sea focused resto at the beach and camping area down the hill. The hot water went out the night we arrived, but someone was there fixing it before checkout the next morning, and they were very flexible to let us leave late since we only got cold showers the night before. The pool is great and the views of the mountains are stunning. There is a sheep farm that straddles the property and uses the road to get sheep out to pasture and in for the night-- fellow guests got caught in the drive and felt so much of the "Sardegna experience" it was quite cool to watch, and listen to as they all wear bells! There's another beach (or few) down the other side of the hill on the same road, so lovely to explore! It's a very rural area in general, so best to travel by car or bicycle to make the most of the local area!
