Fodor's Expert Review Cala di Volpe

Long a magnet for the beautiful people, this hyperglamorous Starwood hotel was designed by Jacques Couëlle to resemble an ancient Sardinian fishing village, complete with its own covered bridge; the exterior is complemented by a rustic-elegant interior with beamed ceilings, terracotta floors, Sardinian arts and crafts, and porticoes overlooking the Cala di Volpe Bay. There's an Olympic-size saltwater pool and boat service to a private beach. Summer prices are high (€1,000 and up), but except in July and August, discounted rates are available with loyalty points and online booking.
