As I arrived at the five-star Hotel Capo d’Orso, another Delphina property that recently joined The Leading Hotels of the World, I was greeted with unbeatable views from its position on the waterfront at Cala Capra beach and a calm, relaxing vibe. SUITE DREAMS I was excited for my stay in a spacious Junior Suite Executive Sea View room nestled within the lush gardens brimming with scented flora and fauna. It’s one of 80 charming bedrooms and suites inspired by authentic island life, with other honeymoon-worthy offerings including the Suite Caprera Open Space Sea View with an exclusive terrace. MEDITERRANEAN BEAUTY Couples dreaming of a laid-back honeymoon with an emphasis on wellness can enjoy the L’Incantu Thalasso & Spa, where the outdoor gym, heated seawater pools and jacuzzi offer a wellness journey and where al fresco massages are a must. Those wanting to get their steps in can follow the footpath to the secluded beach at Cala Selvaggia and beyond to the lighthouse. I couldn’t wait to laze in one of the hammocks perfectly placed in private nooks, and relax on the wooden sun decks perched over the water. FOODIE LOVERS Visitors to this dreamy destination offering five-star freedom shouldn’t miss a reservation at seafood restaurant Il Paguro, recently recognised by the Michelin Guide, where the emphasis is on fresh, local produce with dishes of octopus with vegetables and spaghetti and rockfish ragout. There’s also Restaurant Gli Olivastri nestled in a special setting of Juniper and olive trees. For laid-back lovers there’s Pizzeria L’Approdo and ideal for honeymooners is the romantic Île Flottante restaurant, a wooden island suspended over the sea. The seafood risotto here is the best I have tried, and diners can arrive by boat with complimentary mooring to enjoy dinner. hotelcapodorso.com/en BOOK IT British Airways Holidays offers seven nights to Sardinia from £699pp + €24.5pp Tourism Tax (payable locally), travelling on selected dates between 1st May - 31st May 2026 inclusive.
