I was very concerned on the way to this hotel after reading all the negative comments. However, upon arrival, I found that all construction work was completed, or at least I didn’t see or hear any. The tennis court is ready and operating, the hotel has a wonderful garden with comfortable outdoor furniture scattered around, a pleasant swimming pool, very friendly staff, and a calm beach with comfortable chaise lounges just a four-minute walk away. Although the hotel’s beach is pebbly and lacks toilets or showers, within a few minutes' walk you can reach stunning wild beaches on one side and the expansive sandy Chia beach on the other. We stayed in a large, recently renovated room with a comfortable bed, quality finishes in natural oak, and a good-sized shower. We appreciated the special touch from the housekeeper: spraying a very pleasant house perfume after each cleaning. The hotel offers a very good breakfast with a fresh juice bar, which we loved. We only wished the juice bar was available all day by the pool.

Nevertheless, there are a few areas for improvement: the air conditioners do not function properly, and the cocktails at the bar, as well as the food in the bistro and à la carte restaurant, lack taste and creativity. It’s disappointing to see a Caesar salad and avocado toast in a place where the food itself should be a destination. The main restaurant serves a buffet dinner, which we didn’t try because it’s a very outdated concept; we were disappointed not to be offered a three or four-course meal instead. The food in the à la carte restaurant was also unimpressive, forcing us to eat out at local restaurants that serve fresh seafood cooked in traditional Sardinian style. Overall, if the hotel manages to fix the air conditioning and dining experience, it has the potential for excellence.

Basically all add-ons for free: yoga classes twice a day, incredibly comfy and high-quality sunbeds and umbrellas, SUPs, and beach towels. The hotel offered special vegan options for breakfast upon request – the vegan pancakes and vegan croissants were very delicious. All newly renovated areas felt very high-quality and modern.

We struggled a bit findig the entrance when arriving in the dark – a big sign with the hotel name at the fence would have been helpful. No WiFi in the room, only at the restaurant and reception. After re-opening the hotel, the renovations were still ongoing. That’s why the breakfast / restaurant area wasn’t finished yet. Probably nice once the proper dining area opens. Our room was an old room that hadn’t been renovated yet – the bathroom was extremely cramped, it was hard for your towel not to touch the toilet after stepping out of the shower. The newly renovated rooms looked extremely nice tho.

Great location and easy distance to travel with a car. Staff were excellent. They couldn't be more helpful - from answering questions, recommending places to go or restaurants, even ringing on our behalf to reserve a table, they were great (from pool staff to reception - they were all great). Facilities were of a standard that made our stay very comfortable. We noticed a lot of renovations going on in sections of the resort but it didn't interrupt our time at all - congratulation to the management of the resort. When renovations are complete, I'm sure the resort will go to an even higher level of hospitality. Breakfast, like everything else was excellent - variety, freshness and a broad range of food that should keep the fussiest eaters happy.

Extremely friendly staff especially Roberta in reception, Lorenzo in the buffet and many more whose names I don't remember. Beautifully landscaped and clean grounds, huge and wonderful infinity pool. Close drive to many exceptional beached nearby. Really nice buffet breakfast in a huge area overlooking the pool.

I paid extra for "full bay view" (as opposed to a partial bay view) but the room I was initially assigned was on the ground floor and did not have a view at all! I took it up with reception and kudos to Roberta, she swapped my room with one that had an actual view! Beach is a 5 minute walk and not the best (sand, pebbles and a lot of dry but not malodorous seaweed) but the water's beautiful, clear and clean. Buffet dinners were OK but a bit pricey for what you got (50 euros not including bottled water or drinks!). Apart from these nits everything was exceptional.

I really liked that place was surrounded by nature. Everything was clean and super comfortable. I really enojoyed evening buffee - food was really good and there was always chef there to make fresh pasta and grilled meat. Staff was super friendly and service was very good. I also enjoyed pool and beach - very relaxed area and totally can forget everything from outside. :)

Service, people, food, location, beach - all was excellent. People are very helpful, kind and friendly. Service is very good from the reception, housekeeping, restaurant service, pool or beach service or portier. Breakfast - wide variety from ham and cheese, to fresh fruit or fresh juices, egg station or sweet station Lunch - at the pool bistro just the spot you want to be, nice selection of the menu. This menu is served and delivered to the beach as well. Dinner - 2 restaurants. Buffet menu or a la carte We dined outside the hotel at the near restaurants and it was amazing experience. Beach - 5 minutes walk from the pool, little challenging in the heat, the beach is mainly sand and small stones. The sea was amazing. There is a part reserved for the hotel with sunbeds and beachservice. Paddle board available to use on the beach for hotel guests. Lifeguards on the beach. Tennis, yoga, pilates all available in the hotel

We recommend to come with rented or own car for more flexibility visiting other beaches or to dine outside of the hotel as well. The next city Pula is 20 minutes by car.

Three great highlights: - big range of sports and wellness activities, enjoyed free tennis classes - amazing infinity pool with big length and comfortable depth - delicious breakfasts, great variety on sweet and salty options

Few points that hotel should improve: -parking. If there is no spaces available, you have to park outside the hotel grounds, in an unsecured area. -check-in roulette. If you’re lucky, you won’t have to keep climbing endless stairs to reach your room… Oh, and by the way, no one at reception bothers to ask if you have any mobility limitations. -loungers. At a hotel that charges €500 per night, I shouldn’t have to rush in the morning just to grab a spot by the pool. In the end, there were simply no loungers left and no people on them or in the pool… -beaches…oh dear, a “private beach”… except we were lying on a heap of dry seaweed that smelled unpleasant, and it was impossible to wash the scratchy debris off our feet.

We had a wonderful stay at Veridia Resort Sardinia, a truly beautiful place perfect for relaxation. The entire staff was incredibly friendly and highly professional, making us feel welcome and well taken care of throughout our stay. Our rooms were clean and very comfortable. The walk to the beach was pleasant. One of the highlights of our stay was the amazing culinary experience – the food was absolutely delicious and exceeded our expectations. We truly enjoyed every moment at Veridia Resort Sardinia and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful and unforgettable getaway.

I had a great weekly stay at Veridia Nature Resort in Chia. I travelled solo to this resort and I enjoyed the beach, fitness, e-bikes, good food and amazing views. Would 100% come back here. I definitely want to give a shoutout to a few…Giorgia (Alima restaurant), Jorge (beach), Elena (reception) and Carlo (porter) made my stay unforgettable, their work-ethic, genuinely thoughtful service and enthusiasm is unmatched. Keep up the good work and wish you the best!

Downside: the bistro is sometimes unorganized which leads to longer waits

The resort was super beautiful which made you really feel like living an Italian dream. Room was big with super comfortable bed and had everything you need, it also had a balcony which is really nice to relax in the evening with amazing view. The Gardiana restaurant was nice surprise, food was delicious and service 5 stars. Breakfast was very good and had very big selection of different foods, for sure something for everyone. Coffee was really good. Not to mention the amazing pool with very comfortable soft sunbathing beds plus delicious cocktails at the bar. The resort also has their private area at the beach which was enjoyable, it was also possible to order food and drinks to the beach which was a pleasant surprise, towels were provided both at the beach and by the pool. Service overall was exceptional. Can’t wait to go back, definitely recommend.
