Hotel dei Pini
- Baby
- Toddler
- Kid
- Teen
Hotel dei Pini is a good-natured 4-star on the pretty Riviera del Corallo, steps from Le Bombarde, one of the calmest, shallowest beaches near Alghero. It is more classic hotel than mega-resort: a panoramic pool in the pines, family rooms, and, in summer, sailing, windsurfing and SUP lessons for children and teens. The big draw is that famously safe, clear, gently sloping beach.
Our verdict
A relaxed, well-located 4-star for families who prioritise a safe, shallow beach over a packed activity programme. Ideal for a beach-and-Alghero trip with younger children.
The rooms
A relaxed 4-star among pine trees just back from Le Bombarde beach, north of Alghero. Family rooms take two adults and two children, and the pine-shaded grounds and short flat path to the sand make it manageable with a buggy and small children.

Is there a kids club?
No, this is a classic hotel rather than an animation resort. The draw is the safe beach, the pool and summer watersports lessons, so plan your own days.
Why is Le Bombarde good for children?
It is known for clear water that stays shallow a long way out and shelves gently, which is reassuring for toddlers and nervous swimmers.

An icon of Costa Smeralda designed to look like a Mediterranean fishing village, with rooms and suites full of terracotta, timber and handmade tiles.
