Hotel Le Dune Piscinas

Hotel Le Dune Piscinas is a small beachfront retreat on Sardinia’s wild Costa Verde, set beside the vast sands and wind-shaped dunes of Piscinas. The property occupies a sensitively reworked former mining warehouse, and its industrial past remains part of the experience: the route through Ingurtosu passes the remnants of the area’s mining history before the landscape opens onto sea, sand and Mediterranean scrub. Its 28 rooms and suites use natural materials, local marble, wrought iron, wood and Sardinian textile details in a restrained contemporary style. Days can revolve around the beach, the outdoor pool, the spa and gym, or simply the changing light on the dunes. Three restaurants, an American bar, a library and a quiet open-air cinema give the hotel a sociable but unhurried rhythm after dark.
