PB hotel design editorial
Granite boulders break through the pool terrace at Cascioni Eco Retreat like geological punctuation marks, a reminder that this stretch of Gallura — the rugged, wind-scoured hinterland behind Arzachena in northern Sardinia — has its own terms and is not inclined to negotiate them. The property works with that reality rather than against it, its low-slung vernacular buildings arranged across the macchia-covered landscape in a loose cluster of terracotta-roofed pavilions whose arched loggias and rendered stone walls draw directly from the agriturismo tradition of the Sardinian interior. The interiors carry the atmosphere of a carefully edited rural residence: wide-plank oak floors, linen headboards in warm sand tones, woven rope lamp shades, and handwoven cotton rugs in diamond patterns that ground each room without announcing themselves as design decisions. The restaurant opens fully to the terrace through arched apertures, its terracotta brick floor and exposed timber ceiling beams continuing the material logic of the exterior, while a mezzanine level above introduces a more intimate register. Teak sun loungers arranged beneath standard-trained carob trees frame the pool deck with an easy geometry, the granite ridgeline of the Costa Smeralda hinterland visible beyond the treeline. The whole effect is closer to a well-loved private estate than a hotel — which, in Gallura, is precisely the right ambition.

Cascioni Eco Retreat Reviews
"This is a wonderfully relaxing, laid back hotel. Staff are friendly and helpful. We had some excellent recommendations for local Restaurants and places to visit. Our room had its own little pool and two sunbeds and we just chilled most days. The room we had was very comfortable (apart from the pillows on the bed) and very well appointed. Coffee maker, kettle and little treats left every evening. Breakfast was just ok. No granola or cereal (we went out to buy some)….not very much fruit - a bit of melon and some fresh figs. Lots of cake and different bread. You could order cooked breakfast, but I would have liked to see more fruit. We didn’t use the main pool, it looked lovely though. All in all a great few days of peace and tranquility."

"I had several issues during my stay, but the two stars is largely for the slow and very disappointing response from the hotel to the feedback I provided prior to leaving any kind of review. The property is very nice and my room was lovely (which I would hope would be the case for the high price). Check-in process was fine and the woman helping me was kind and helpful. My experience at the spa was excellent, and the spa manager was wonderful. That was the highlight of the stay. However when I came back up after the spa, a different woman was working reception. I had not been given an overview of the aperitif/bar/outdoor situation, and there was no one at the bar outside, so I asked her if I was able to get a drink from there to take back to my room. Rather than assisting, she just said to ask the bartender. I explained no one was there, but she again didn’t offer to help, so I just went out to wait for someone to come back. After getting ready for dinner, I returned and asked again at reception if I could push my reservation back a little so I could sit outside for the sunset. The same woman again just told me to go and check inside the restaurant, and I had to explain there was no in there when I had just walked inside in full view of the reception desk. It was very odd. I was also surprised that for a rather small and intimate boutique hotel, there were multiple large families there, which resulted in children running around yelling as I tried to enjoy a drink and watching tv programs out loud throughout dinner. Trying to enjoy an expensive tasting menu while listening to Peppa pig playing for the entirety of the meal was not really the experience I was hoping for or expecting for this caliber of hotel. I woke up to a text from the hotel asking if they could send someone to get my bags at 10:45, which felt a little pushy. Breakfast was a nice spread, but service was hectic and my order came out wrong twice so I eventually just gave up. But the biggest issue for me was that as I was showering and getting dressed, I realized that there were men directly outside cleaning the small private pool of the room. The small window of the shower looks right to that area and is not covered, and the curtains of the front sliding doors are see through, so it was pretty uncomfortable. I quickly threw on a robe and asked if they could wait till I left. I then texted back to the hotel explaining the situation, but when I got to the front desk to checkout they hadn’t even looked at the message, so I had to explain again. They apologized but did nothing else. I reached out to the hotel membership site I booked through after and provided all of this feedback which they sent to the hotel, but it took over a week to get a response, which rather than being apologetic or taking accountability, was really just defensive or countering everything I said. Some of the responses were, "We apologise if you did not feel supported by the front desk team during what was a particularly busy moment.”- neither time I spoke to the front desk was a busy moment. There were no other guests present and the woman was not dealing with something else. "Should guests request a quieter or more secluded table, our team will always do their best to accommodate this.” The outdoor terrace is small and there wouldn’t have been anywhere I could move where I would not be able to hear the show playing; it seems pretty silly that I would be expected to isolate myself inside rather than the restaurant just asking the table to turn the iPad down to respect the other guests dining. Per the incorrect breakfast orders- "The hotel was unable to verify the specific details but apologises if this was the case.” Why would the hotel be able to verify the specific details of an incorrect omelette? And as for the pool, "The hotel notes that the pool cleaning was part of the daily service routine and not related to your checkout. They also advised that the curtains in both the living area and bedroom are made from high-quality, non-transparent fabric, and that the bathroom window is positioned high and not visible from outside.” If this really is a daily service, then guests should be notified of the time men will be entering the private space of the room, but regardless, it seems unnecessary to have the cleaning occur 20 minutes prior to checkout time when guests would be getting ready to depart. Most importantly, if I could see the men through the window and through the front door blinds that are absolutely not “non-transparent,” then they could certainly see me. Finally- "Overall, the hotel noted that you were kind and polite during your stay, and as no concerns were raised directly at the time, they were unable to address them in person. The General Manager is available to speak with guests at any point during their stay, and they expressed surprise at receiving the feedback after departure.” Of course I tried to be polite. Given that I spoke to the reception directly to ask questions that were not assisted with properly, and that I did in fact message the hotel WhatsApp about the privacy issue and explained it again at checkout, this statement really makes no sense. Reception barely offered an apology for it- they certainly did not say they would get the general manager to assist, and no one ever followed up about it until I raised the issue again through the booking site. This just felt like such a disappointing way for the hotel to handle the feedback, and turned what could have been minor issues that needed improvement into a much larger customer service issue."

"We just returned from a few nights at Cascioni. Neither me or my husband have ever slept so well - the beds are SO comfortable. The interior deco is really lovely everywhere and extremely calming. The location is SO beautiful. The view across the hills make you feel very relaxed but is still only a 10 minute drive from really fabulous beaches. The property is small and quiet. It was fully booked when we were there but we hardly saw other guests at the pool. The staff are lovely and really go out their way to ensure you are having a lovely relaxing time. They produce oil on site and gave us a gorgeous gift of olive oil as we left. It's completely delicious. The spa is WOW. We had use of the spa even though we had no treatments and it's really spectactular. So relaxing and exclusive. The area for breakfast/dinner and pool is just all very well done, feels exclusive and homely. We ate dinner there one night which is expensive, but was really delicious and romantic. We also had a snack lunch that we really enjoyed and was much tastier and reasonably priced than the options on the Costa Smeralda coast. Also the wine is great. We loved our terrace - it was so peaceful sitting out there morning and evening. The quality of the beauty products - soap etc is also great - they are all made on site. If I really had to pick out improvements, and this is purely based on the high price tag, I would suggest an improved breakfast option. The food was nice, but I have seen much more varied options elsewhere. I think there could also be more staff available during the day to serve drinks/ lunch etc. I think the sunbeds were perfectly adequate but they could be more cushioned considering the nightly hotel cost. Also, milk in the bedrooms for coffee and/or alternative tea bag varieties would be welcomed. I'd love to come back here. Thanks so much Cascioni."

"Peaceful Luxury in the Heart of Sardinia Cascioni Eco Retreat is an absolute haven of tranquility and elegance. From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed with genuine warmth and professionalism. The staff are exceptional — attentive without being intrusive, always ready to assist with a smile, and clearly passionate about making every guest’s stay unforgettable. The suites are spacious, beautifully designed, and perfectly integrated into the natural surroundings. Every detail — from the private terraces to the high-quality amenities — reflects thoughtful care and refined taste. Waking up to the sound of nature, with panoramic views over the countryside, is an experience I will never forget. The retreat’s setting is serene and secluded, yet still close to some of Sardinia’s most beautiful beaches and charming towns. The on-site restaurant is a highlight in itself, offering fresh, local, and exquisitely prepared dishes that showcase the region’s flavors. Cascioni Eco Retreat offers the perfect combination of luxury, privacy, and authenticity. It is the ideal place to relax, recharge, and immerse yourself in the beauty of Sardinia. I will return without hesitation."

"From the moment my husband and I arrived for a 10 day stay we were met with friendly and helpful staff that took every effort to make our stay as if we were long time friends. From the comfortable bed and pillows to the housekeeping of our room which was serviced twice a day. The hotel offers a beautiful buffet of pastries and homemade yogurt to die for and they can also make you a hot breakfast which was always outstanding. Lunch and dinner were always well done with great service and great food. You must try the ricotta soufflé for a dinner dessert - it's to die for! They also have their own olive oil which they produce and it is excellent. We would go back!"
