Arbatax Park Ville del Parco

Overview

You're in for a treeat with this one, especially the nature enthusiasts. Now we're normally shouting about the beach, and the beaches here are still 10/10, but it's also in the middle of Bellavista Nature Park. Fun fact too, we'll probably mention this more than once, but here we go, this resort is the only one in the world that's in the centre of a nature park. Yep, world, told you. It's a big deal! With the au nature-al rooms, buffet restaurant (best believe there's pizza and pasta here) and a VIK (very important kids) programme where they can literally become a park ranger, all whilst you hit the spa and have a pamper!
