Description
The B&B “Il Porto Vecchio” is in the centre of tourist Stintino town. It’s next to all facilities: bank, chemist, post office, newsagents, supermarkets, restaurants, bus station, bars, tobacconist’s shop). It’ s too next to some boats of the regular service to virgin island Asinara (it’s a national park).
The see is very next and the well-know beach “La Pelosa” is to 2 km.
The bus station to Alghero Airport, to Sassari city and to all beaches is to 20 mt.
In the B&B “Il Porto Vecchio” there are some comfortable rooms (single and double), there are all a private bathroom, a TV, a cupboard, some bath-towels and some bed-sheets. In the price they are too the Italian breakfast (with coffee, milk, tea, croissants, chocolate, butter, jams) and the cleaning all days. There is a terrace where is possible to have breakfast, to read and to talk.
You can see others information (and some photos too) in our web-site.
The inhabitants of Stintino usually talk about their sea distinguishing between the “inside sea” and the “outside sea”. The sea on the eastern side is contained within the Gulf of Asinara and is characterised by several snow white beaches, including the very beautiful “La Pelosa” beach. The other sea on the western side is instead characterised by sheer rocks and splendid coves with emerald coloured sea.
The “Mediterranean Championship” of “latin sail” (26-28 August in all years) is probably the most important event held at Stintino. The “latin sail” is a boat characterised by a tall yardarm, whose origin date back to the Roman Empire.
The sea has obviously had a remarkable influence on Stintino’s cuisine. Sea urchins and seafood are local delicacies, as are crustaceans and “bottarga” (tuna roe), wich is prepared with a jealously kept recipe. The most famous local dish is a fish soup, made of Gulf fish with potatoes and lobster. On the theme of traditions, in Stintino, one can still find hand made carpentry, and fishing is also carried out on small boats using ancient methods. One important testimony from the past is the “Museo delle Tonnare” (Museum of tuna fish).

Very few locations can boast a comparable enchanting beauty.
Stintino is a land of dreams which feels magical. Situated in the plane of Nurra, the northern most part of the province of Sassari, it is dominated by the strong contrasts of the two seas, mare di fuori e mare di dentro (outside sea and inside sea), in which the natural architecture of the high cliffs of darkest rock, which jut out towards the sea, act as a contrast to the calm and numerous beaches and coves of whitest sand, swept by a crystalline sea with its iridescent aquamarine shades.
As well as the famous beach La Pelosa, sought-after destination of the majority of the tourists, the beautiful beaches of: La Pelosetta, Il Gabbiano, L’Ancora, I Tamerici, Punta Negra, Le Tonnare, Le Saline, Pazzona, Punta d’Elice and Ezzi Mannu well deserve a mention.
In the mare di Fuori, situated on the western part of the territory, there are small and welcoming coves with the Coscia di Donna and Punta su Torrione beaches. The interior territory, often swept by the strong wind, seems to reawaken in spring with the perfume of the Mediterranean bush and the warm shades of its colours which tint the summer and autumn months with soft amber yellows.
The town, which faces the Gulf of Asinara, owes its name to the two characteristic inlets in the shape of a snake (in dialect “isthintu”), in which lie the two ports “Porto Nuovo” and “Porto Vecchio”. A fishing location, which has made its existence from the sea, Stintino is the main port of entry to the Nature Park of the Isola dell’Asinara, linked by a daily ferry service; it also offers an infinite variety of recreating and relaxing entertainment solutions to be enjoyed: from the numerous hospitality structures, often with a sea view, to the possibility of tasting the traditional fish dishes, horse riding trails and naturalistic excursions into the multiform landscapes of the interior.
As well as the traditional activities linked to fishing lately fishing-tourism has become very popular together with various acquasports including diving in the magnificent sea beds, snorkelling, surf, windsurf and, above all, sailing (in august the famous Regatta della vela latina will be held), all activities which superbly valorise this splendid sea.

Well-maintained and clean structure in the center of Stintino, rooms and bathrooms furnished with everything necessary. Normal breakfast, perhaps the only small downside is to arrange the breakfast room in a less chaotic way. For the rest, I recommend it.

The room in which we slept was quite cramped, on a raised floor, with a window overlooking the sidewalk and street (so much so that we didn't open the shutters), quite noisy. However, clean. The feeling is like entering a private home, the host not particularly welcoming, albeit polite.

The answer from the host:
Buongiorno gentile Laura, la ringrazio per la recensione comunque positiva. La nostra E' una casa privata, non è un semplice sensazione. Chi viene da noi sa che trova un ambiente familiare in un contesto professionale. La nostra accoglienza è discreta e professionale. La camera rispetta tutti i requisiti minimi, ed è offerta a prezzi impareggiabili. Purtroppo soggiornare in paese presenta vantaggi e svantaggi che bisogna pesare bene prima di soggiornare. Grazie ancora per averci scelto, è stato un piacere, vi aspettiamo a breve qui da noi.

After years, I returned to B&B Il Porto Vecchio, definitely confirming the great memory I had. Excellent cleanliness, kindness of the owners, and great breakfast. For those who should go to Stintino, a great place for sure.

The location is perfect but the room is very small and the bathroom very old and deserves a serious refreshment.

Struttura pulitissima arredamento semplice con ottima qualità prezzo bagno un po' piccolo ma monolocale funzionale e completo. Unica pecca la colazione compresa al bar ma non per colpa del gestore del B&B che è stato molto disponibile e cortese. Baristi svogliati e quasi scocciati nel servire la colazione, bisogna chiedere qualsiasi cosa e comunque scarsissima, insomma si può migliorare. Per il resto consigliato, posizione eccezionale.
