Travel and accomodation

 

The city of Alghero is very well connected to continental Europe thanks to an international airport and a main harbour.

The Alghero airport "Riviera del corallo" offers direct connections to several international destinations. These include the main Italian airports of Milan, Rome, Bologna, Pisa, Turin but also several European destinations such as: Barcelona, Bremen, Copenhagen, Dublin, Dusseldorf, Frankfurt, London, Madrid and Stockholm. Most of the main European routes are operated by low cost air carriers such as Ryanair, Germanwings, Scandinavian Airlines and Volareweb. Many more convenient international connections are available through the main hubs of Milan and Rome by the Ita Airways, EasyJet and Aeroitalia international airlines.

The Porto Torres harbour (25 Km from Alghero) also has many daily connections to Genova, Livorno and Marseille with several ferry companies.

Alternatively also the Olbia airport (150 Km from Alghero) offers many daily connections and can be easily reached from Alghero either by car or public transportation.

The school courses will be held at the hotel dei Pini, located near Alghero in the magnificent Alghero bay.

Hotel dei Pini, a luxurious, intimate and elegant residence by the illustrious Sardinian architect Antonio Simon Mossa, stands in the wonderful scene of two amazing coasts of Bombarde and Lazzaretto, immersed in the surrounding nature. It faces south-west and is exposed to the sun from morning to sunset.

This 4-star hotel faces out over one of the most beautiful of Alghero beaches, Le Bombarde, and is immersed in the Porto Conte Nature Reserve, a location of which we are very proud and which we go our utmost to preserve year after year.

Located just 9km from Alghero Fertilia airport, and 7km from the city centre (transport links include a cycle route), Hotel dei Pini can boast decades of experience in providing hospitality: the staff people are always ready, willing and able to help guests and, indeed, the members of our team have become something of a second family for many returning guests, whom we are delighted to see every summer, year after year.

All the facilities you would expect of an excellent 4-star hotel, together with a magical atmosphere that will engage with all of your senses. The clean, crystal-clear tract of sea, just a few yards from the marine protected area; the lush pine forest and fragrant vegetation; the private beach, only a minute walk away; the kind, courteous staff; the delicious, fresh food; and the swimming pool with sea-view hydromassage corner - these are some of the facilities that will allow you to savour your holiday in great comfort, without feeling the need to leave the hotel hardly at all.

An exuberant park surrounds all the structures of the village, with typical plants of the mediterranean vegetation: Pine-trees, Oleanders, Roses, Brooms, Bouganville, Indian figs, and others.

Take a breath-taking view of this magnificent gem in the Mediterranean sea...
