The Italian island of Sardinia makes a great destination to enjoy a family holiday but some tourists complain that accommodation prices can be high. It is possible to find good quality hotels without paying over the odds.
The leading resort on the island is Alghero, with its long, sandy beaches. Some tourists are put off visiting Alghero because they believe that it will be very busy and that the nightlife can be a bit hectic.
Don't make the mistake of ruling out Alghero as a potential destination though. It's certainly true that the area is very lively but it also has a very large range of hotels.
There are some real hotel bargains to be found in Alghero and there is certainly more to the town than bars and nightclubs.
The area has many similarities with the Catalan region of Spain - you'll find that cuisine here is heavily influenced by that style.
The centre of Alghero has some great historic sights, while restaurants are very reasonably priced. You can enjoy local cooking, without feeling the need to visit the fast food outlets that so many visitors flock to.
Take a look at what is available in Alghero and the surrounding areas. You'll often find that it's possible to get some very good 3 star and 4 star accommodation at low prices, when compared to the rest of Sardinia .
If you are looking for a quieter style of holiday, then consider selecting a hotel that is not right in the centre of town.
As you might expect, Sardinia is at its busiest during the months of July and August. If you can avoid these popular peak times then you'll find that the island is far less crowded and that there are some cheaper hotel deals available.
Sardinia has a great climate and warm people - you're sure to enjoy all that this beautiful island has to offer.
