Old Town Apartment

This is an excellent apartment in the historical center of Alghero. The location cannot be beat- a wine shop and amazing restaurants are literally a stones throw away. We enjoyed exploring Alghero and beaches to the north and south. The apartment is well appointed and spacious for traveling couples and a crib was available if needed. The only caution we could provide to prospective travelers would to be aware of the notes in the listing on parking- we found the public parking lot to be very convenient with plentiful, safe parking available a short walk away, however the nature of the historical streets in the “Old Town” area would favor those traveling with easy to manage bags, but this is true of any apartment in this historical area due to driving restrictions- and was honestly not an issue for us. Communication with the host is clear and consistent. We’d definitely consider this apartment for future visits.

Wonderful host!

Unfortunately I had to cancel my booking before arrival, so I can only speak to Tiziana as a host. She is wonderful, answered all my questions quickly, and provided me with so much useful information on Alghero and the area, including numerous photos. I can't wait to finally be able to stay, which I will one day! Grazie Tiziana.

Lovely apartment

What a charming and comfortable apartment in the historical center of Alghero! We loved the sights, and aromas coming from the street below and the apartment had most everything we needed. The only challenge being the lack of wi-fi. The furnishings are lovely and decorated with a thoughtful eye. We would definitely stay here again!

Great location, very homely apartment, extremely helpful host & delightful welcome person

Sweet home Amethyst is a place we'd love to return to. Great living in the heart of Alghero- what a thrill to lean out the window to hang out the washing! Loved having two bathrooms & this apartment has a wonderful friendly ambience. Alghero was a good base for exploring South to Bosa & the nearby National Parks- our host had supplied lots of great information. Thanks for our memorable stay & being so hospitable. Louise Sept 2016

Absolute lovely Apartment

Der Kontakt mit Tiziana war einfach nur super entspannt und unkompliziert! Sie ist so lieb und hat schon direkt nach der Buchung Bilder und Beschreibungen geschickt die hilfreich sind. Bei Ankunft hat mich Natalie empfangen und mir einmal alles gezeigt was wichtig ist. In der Wohnung ist alles wichtige vorhanden. Ich hatte für den Fall der Fälle beide Handynummern und hätte beiden immer schreiben können. Die Wohnung liegt mitten im Zentrum der Altstadt und man erreich fußläufig alles. Für den Strand lohnt es sich ein Auto zu haben, um nicht an den überlaufenen Stadtstrand zu müssen. Alles in allem sehr zu Frieden und empfehlenswert! Gerne wieder :)

Casa molto pulita, finemente decorata, arredata e rimodernata, piacevole alla sia alla vista che nella comodità degli spazi ben studiati nella parte living. Situata nel pieno centro storico ma a pochi passi dalle zone raggiungibili in auto. Tutti i servizi sono a portata di mano e si potrebbe dimenticare l'auto per il periodo della permanenza ad Alghero in questa struttura. Nonostante la zona, l'appartamento di Tiziana rimane comunque silenzioso anche quando nelle strade adiacenti la movida corre. Un po' difficoltose le scale per salire fino al piano dell'appartamento, non adatte a persone con scarsa mobilità ma facili per una persona mediamente allenata, ascensore assente come d'obbligo in una casa storica del centro. Da menzionare il soffitto un po' basso nella zona notte a soppalco quando ci si muove ma tutto sommato accettabile visto che si sale solo per dormire

Direkte Altstadt-Lage, sehr nette Vermieterin

Das Objekt liegt direkt in der Altstadt. Es sind einige steile Treppen zur Wohnung zu bewältigen, sodass ich von großen Hartschalenkoffern abraten würde. Die Wohnung hat alles, was man braucht. Die Vermieterin Tiziana ist eine sehr liebe und hilfsbereite Person und jederzeit erreichbar. Ein Aufenthalt ist auf jeden Fall empfehlenswert.

Traumhafte Urlaub auf Sardinien

Text für beide Wohnung: Meine Freundin Maryana und ich sind neulich für ein paar Tage in der wunderschönen Stadt Alghero auf der herrlichen Insel Sardinien gewesen. Wir hatten eine großartige Wohnung von dem Anbieterin Tiziana bekommen. Die Wohnung ist mitten in der alten Stadt. Eine gute Lage, drin ruhig, hell und perfekt ausgestattet. Wir haben die Zeit sowohl in der Stadt, als auch in der Wohnung und auf der Insel sehr genossen. Unvergessliche Zeit!!! Wir kommen auf jeden Fall wieder.

Super lovely, cozy apartment, perfectly located in Alghero's old town

The apartment is fantastic, it has been definitely among our TOP3 apartments we ever had during all our vacations throughout the world. It's situated perfectly in the old town of Alghero and everything is in reach by walking distance, great restaurants, trattorias, bars, cafés. Although it is in the middle of bustling old town it is still quiet enough to rest and have a good and silent sleep. The apartment is furnished both antique and modern with a great eye for detail and everything fits together very lovely. Although not too large it offers two bathrooms including showers and a fully equipped kitchen. We enjoyed a super nice 3 days stay there!

L'appartement de Tiziana est fonctionnel, spacieux et décoré avec soin. Il est surtout très bien situé et permet de profiter d'Alghero dans les meilleures conditions. Par ailleurs, Tiziana nous avait fourni plein d'informations sur les choses à faire et cela nous a permis d'organiser au mieux notre séjour. L'accueil par Valéria était également très chaleureux.
