We are proud to announce another triumph for Hotel Marinedda, which, following last year’s success, has once again been recognised as one of the top 20 SPA destinations in the world by Condé Nast Traveler, receiving the prestigious Reader’s Choice Award 2024. This highly coveted accolade in the hospitality industry, marked by its distinctive red seal, has become a symbol of excellence. A particularly significant recognition, awarded by the magazine’s readers after a meticulous annual selection of the most appreciated hotels and resorts internationally.
“The wellness centre, L’Elicriso, is an airy 2500-square-metre oasis specialising in thalassotherapy: from the Greek word thalassa, meaning ‘sea’, this ancient practice uses seawater for its therapeutic properties. Mentioned as early as 480 BC in the works of Euripides and Hippocrates, this treatment method was popular in antiquity and remains equally effective today in washing away the stress of modern life,” Condé Nast Traveler explains to its readers.

Surrounded by gardens, with the colours and scents typical of Costa Rossa, the centre adheres to international thalassotherapy protocols, continuously sourcing seawater for its pools and treatments.
The water, collected hundreds of metres offshore to ensure its purity, retains all its properties without undergoing chemical purification treatments, preserving the microbiological quality of the marine environment. A two-, three-, or six-day thalassotherapy programme improves venous and lymphatic circulation, stimulates proper breathing, eliminates toxins, drains, and enhances muscular capacity by toning the tissues.
Wellness at Hotel Marinedda also means walking along one of the most stunning panoramas of the Gulf of Asinara, on a stretch of coastline known as Costa Rossa for the characteristic colour of its rocks, or spending a relaxing day on La Marinedda beach.
The elegant and welcoming rooms are inspired by nature, decorated with warm colours and local craftsmanship, while the restaurants celebrate the authentic flavours of the island. For families, the hotel offers green spaces for children, including a dedicated restaurant, a small pool, a play area, and sports activities, complemented by a free Miniclub service operating 12 hours a day, every day.

The bay of Isola Rossa has been chosen as the venue for the 2024 Italian National Championships in shortboard and bodyboard, hosted by the Italian Surfing, Water Skiing, and Wakeboarding Federation.
Are you ready for a September to remember? The bay of La Marinedda is once again set to become the stage for Italian and international surfing, hosting the twentieth edition of Italy’s longest-running surf contest, the Marinedda Surf Open. But this year, there’s something extra special: for the first time, the MarineddaBay Open will be part of the official championship of the FISSW – Italian Surfing, Water Skiing, and Wakeboarding Federation, a decisive event to crown the Italian champions in shortboard and bodyboard!
The waiting period begins on 15 September, and the anticipation is already high. The best surfers, both Italian and international, are fine-tuning their boards to tackle the powerful waves of the Sardinian North Shore. Imagine the adrenaline: 64 athletes ready to battle it out in one of Sardinia’s most spectacular bays, with 32 male and 16 female surfers competing in shortboard, and 8 athletes in each category of bodyboard. Registrations are open, but they close as soon as the green light is given!
We are delighted that Hotel Marinedda is among the local businesses that have made all this possible: The Marinedda Bay Open – 2024 National Shortboard and Bodyboard Championship is organised under the patronage of the Municipality of Trinità d’Agultu and the FISSW – Italian Surfing, Water Skiing, and Wakeboarding Federation, and is supported by Costa Rossa Sardinia and other businesses from our region.
This weekly event, held every Tuesday evening throughout the summer, is an opportunity to enjoy a complete cultural experience, discovering the tradition, art, and hospitality of Gallura. The heart of the event is the evening market along Via Roma, which transforms into a lively open-air market. Here you will find many artisanal products, from traditional Aggius carpets to unique jewellery made with local materials. You can discover wooden and inlaid handicrafts, cork works, scented candles, genuine jams, and typical costumes. You can also admire collections of swimwear and beach towels inspired by the designs and colours of traditional carpets.
For the occasion, the village also hosts performances and itinerant shows, book presentations, and workshops for children. The experience in Aggius would not be complete without tasting the culinary delights of Gallura. During Tuesday in the Village, you can participate in food and wine tours in collaboration with local wineries and taste specialities such as “li Frisjoli”, Carnival fritters, “suppa cuata”, Gallura soup, and “li bruglioni”, traditional ravioli.
The village also offers a journey into culture and history. Aggius, awarded the Orange Flag by the Italian Touring Club, is nestled among majestic granite rocks and cork forests. This picturesque village is known for its intertwined alleys, hidden squares, ancient churches, and museums that tell an ancient story.
While strolling through the granite alleys, you can discover murals and artworks by Sardinian artists like Simone Sanna and Josephine Sassu. Everything began with Maria Lai’s stay in Aggius. The project AAAperto has now transformed Aggius into an open-air museum, with contributions from famous artists such as Tellas, Giovanni Campus, Rosanna Rossi, Zaza Calzia, and many others. The village’s museums, including the MEOC and the Museum of Banditry, offer a fascinating journey into the past: the MEOC, one of the largest ethnographic museums on the island, hosts a “traditional house” and collections of costumes and choral songs, while the Museum of Banditry recounts the compelling history of local banditry, celebrated in the novel “Il Muto di Gallura” and in the film by Matteo Fresi.
