Travel from Sardinia to Nice

Hello!

I am planning a trip to Sardinia and Nice for 3 weeks next summer from the United States and am wondering if it's easiest to fly directly to Sardinia from the states (via Rome) as I'm having a difficult time finding travel from Nice to Sardinia that doesn't waste a day. Does anyone have experience with this type of itinerary? I can do Nice at the beginning or end of the trip and am trying to figure out what would be the easiest. Thank you!

Where to stay, family with toddler

We are planning a one-week trip to Sardinia with our 2.5 year old daughter late August. Looking for a small hotel or serviced villa/apartment:

- with pvt beach or at walking distance to a beautiful beach

- with a pool ideally

- not too crowded with tourists

- in a cozy city/village offering easy walks and hikes (not too hilly) and proximity to restaurants

- toddler-friendly activities close-by

Any recommendations on the area /place to stay?

Has anyone stayed at an RCI timeshare property?

My husband and I are traveling to Sardinia for the first time in July 2022. We only have a few days to spend on Sardinia before moving on to the next leg of our trip. We have the option of staying at an RCI timeshare property. Was wondering if anyone has stayed at an RCI property on Sardinia and what your experience has been. We would also like to be near the sea as much of our time will be spent at the beach. Any insight would be greatly appreciated!

Anyone been/planning a holiday to Sardinia from UK?

We’ve got one booked for first week of July in the North near Santa Theresa. Looks like Sardinia will still be on the UK’s amber list by then. Can’t decide whether to go anyway and pay for all the covid tests or to abandon this year. Any thoughts? Anyone been from the UK recently and if so what was your experience?

First Time in Sardinia

Hello Everyone,

So we are trying to plan a trip to Sardinia this September. We are coming from the US what are the requirements for us to be able to enter? Do we still need to wear a mask indoors? Thanks in advance.

Predictions After 30th August

My partner & I are due to fly September 4th spending a week on the Amalfi Coast. I know impossible to say but what percentage wise do you think Italy will lift restrictions for UK citizens? I have booked a hotel in Croatia as a back up but it means then swapping flights 5 days before travel. Either way its such a pain as I could change to Croatia now then Italy lifts restrictions (sods law) or keep to Italy hoping things change but then run the risk of no availability for flights to Croatia at last minute or expensive. However there is still availability on flights for Croatia in August so should be fine to book at last minute for September. Taking a gamble!

Returning to Alghero this summer

Hi all

I wondered if anyone has gone or is planning to go to Alghero, Sardinia this summer? I know my favoured hotel, Hotel Calabona is remaining closed until Dec 2021. But I wondered if anything else has changed as a result of the pandemic? Thank you very much for your answers

Italy in Sept - warm weather, nice beaches

Hi,

My husband and I are hoping to do a road trip around Italy mid sept for 2 weeks. We are flexible with respect to which city we fly in/out from.

We love quiet, scenic beaches (especially quiet coves away from too many tourists), but also like mini city/local town/village trips. We would like our trip to be more beach heavy with a few day/overnight trips to cities/local towns/villages thrown in!

We are happy to do a mix of trains/rental cars but are thinking it probably makes more sense to just hire a car for the whole trip.

Could anyone suggest a 2-week itinerary that could incorporate these things? We are thinking south of Italy, as assuming the weather will be better there in Sept.

Thanks in advance!

Getting a PCR Covid test in north Sardinia for return to UK

Much the same as when entering Sardinia, the UK requires evidence of a negative PCR test within 3 days of the flight back to the UK. We're still hoping to stay at Hotel la Bisaccia in Baja in north east Sardinia, any ideas how far I'll need to travel to get the PCR test? I expect it'll be a minimum of a hire car journey to Olbia?

italy travel

My husband and I are planning to vacation in italy for our 25th wedding anniversary next year.

i am so overwhelmed with decision making and he is no help as he is very go with the flow and says yes to everything. which doesn't help me decide. lol.

we want to go to rome, pisa, florence, tuscany, amalfi coast

is it better to rent a car and travel this way or is it better to travel via train with all our luggage as we move from city to city?

or

could we be based out of one city for the entire vacation and travel to each place for the day trips?

if so, which city do you recommend to be based out of?

is renting a car a good idea?

i am planning a 14 day vacation to Italy, what is the best time of year to go?

thank you so much in advance for all of your help in planning this trip.
