Our top pick

TUI offers some excellent deals on holidays in Sardinia. For a peaceful retreat, impressive views and rustic charm, you can get nearly 40 per cent off a stay at The Hotel Arathena. Nestled in a beautiful hillside spot on the edge of the picturesque village of San Pantaleo in northern Sardinia, it boasts sweeping countryside views from the pool. While the turquoise waters and white sands of Costa Smeralda are a short drive away, you can also head to the local cafes and family-run restaurants, which are a five-minute walk on foot.

What is there to do in Sardinia, Italy?

Sardinia is situated off the west coast of Italy and it offers a unique holiday experience for visitors. From historic coastal towns and seaside villages to archaeological sites, there’s plenty here to explore. Alghero, or Cagliari (Sardinia’s capital) are great places to start.

Beyond its beautiful beaches, Sardinia provides opportunity for adventure – from hiking the Gorropu Canyon to hopping on a day cruise. For this sort of activity, you may want to head to the eastern coast, with its rugged mountains and coves.

While nightlife isn’t the main selling point of Sardinia, the coastal towns, such as Porto Cervo and Alghero, offer a small number of stylish bars and clubs with a vibrant atmosphere and live music.

Which part of Sardinia has the best beaches?

One of the most popular beaches in Sardinia is Maria Pia. Near Alghero, it spans 2km of powdery white sand. If you’re willing to travel a little further to find somewhere more secluded, Tinnari is a 15-minute drive from Isola Rossa and then a little further by foot. The two moon-shaped bays should make it worth the extra travel time. La Pelosa’s shallow lagoon and Cala Goloritzè’s limestone cliffs are also popular.

What's the best month to go to Sardinia?

The shoulder seasons are a wise time to book, which is often the case when booking holidays. Not only are prices and deals typically more impressive between May to June and from September to October, but this is also a good time to travel for those who want to beat the holiday rush and enjoy a more peaceful, laidback feel to their trip. The shoulder seasons are warm but not sweltering, which is ideal if you’re planning on doing some activities and don’t want the weather to be oppressive.

For a last-minute Sardinia holiday in 2026, August is still worth considering. It’s typically one of the busiest periods, so booking as soon as you find a suitable deal can be worthwhile if your dates are flexible.

It's also worth comparing different departure dates, as moving your trip by a few days can make a significant difference to the price. If you're booking at short notice, remember to compare both package holidays and hotel-only stays rather than assuming booking separately will be cheaper.

Is it expensive to holiday in Sardinia?

The cost of staying in Sardinia will of course depend on the location and the accommodation. There are both budget-friendly and more luxury accommodation options available, with those in the Costa Smeralda in the north east tending to be on the more expensive side.

Can I get a package holiday deal to Sardinia?

Sardinia is a great holiday option for both hotel-only and all-inclusive packages. If you prefer to eat out and explore the local cuisine, you can find plenty of affordable hotel rates through booking platforms like Expedia and Hotels.com.

Alternatively, if you prefer the convenience of a package holiday with flights, accommodation and catering included, TUI has some great Sardinia holiday deals starting from £314 per person. Its price-match promise also means that you can secure your holiday and if you find a cheaper deal elsewhere for the same package, you’ll get the difference back.
