A great insight into Italy and its beautiful beaches! It’s not somewhere i have been before. The nearest I have been Sicily where i got married and another beautiful place to visit.
I love the idea that you have broken down each of its beaches so that customers can see what suits them best when booking their holiday and the ideal time to go.
It’s also great that excursions are listed as we sometimes have to search separate for those but they’re all in one place and highlights what customers can do.

Sardinia is one of my dreams. I saw the pictures of beautiful white sandy beaches and crystal clear water and I read it is the European version of the Caribbean. Is that true? Also, Sardinia is the most expensive place in Italy, correct? Which beach would you recommend visiting the most? Based on your description I like Ezzy Mannu Beach. Thank you

Stintino, such a beautiful place to be, so I heard from a friend who had gone to Italy for her honeymoon. She showed some few pics and told me of some beaches they visited. Haven read this article, I can tell that stintino is really a wonderful place to be and she did have a great time there.
Stintino is wonderful, and definitely a great honeymoon destination. Hopefully you can enjoy the beauty of Stintino too soon 🙂
I have been planning a trip to Sardinia for a long time. And visiting Stintino is at the top of my list. I have always been impressed by the beautiful beaches there. The sand looks so white in the pictures, and the ocean is so pristine. I am interested in visiting La Pelosa beach and the Spanish tower that is there.
You’ll have a great time in Stintino Paolo, please let me know if you need any additional information or if you need any help with your travel planning.
Sardinia is a beautiful island and Stintino looks like an absolute gem. I have been fortunate enough to visit Sardinia on several occasions, but always stayed in Palau and Costa Smeralda, where we found it was essential to have a car.
So is it advisable to have a car when you holiday in Stintino? Would Olbia be the nearest airport? Is it best to fly and rent a car, or can one come by ferry from the mainland and bring your own car? Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed your digital visit to Stintino. The closes airport is going to be Alghero (AHO) Airport. Rental cars in Stintino are going to be quite steep and not necessary. I would say to skip the price of the rental car here, you’ll do fine without it 🙂
Italy seems like an amazing place to go visit. I would definitely go there for a honeymoon haha. Thank you for this informative article, I will be sure to share it around. Also I love the soccer there, I would definitely go to Italy to watch a Juventus match, also for the formula one
Sounds like you would kill two birds with one stone 🙂 Yes, a honeymoon in Stintino would be romantic and wonderful! Then throw in the soccer match (I’m not so sure that would be good for a honeymoon tho) and the formula one, and you have a busy schedule 🙂 I am glad you enjoyed your visit to the Amazing Places to Stay in Stintino Italy Daniel. Thanks for stopping by.
Travelling is one of my hobbies and this makes me long to see your website Everytime, I have always wanted to go to stintino Italy, so seeing it in detail from your website is nothing short amazing. I really like the tourist attractions and I just checked the girls featured here, they are really nice indeed, thanks for this. I really like it.
You are very welcome Collins. Yes, lots to do and see. Stintino is a perfect getaway. Glad you enjoyed.
This sounds like a perfect place to go in April or May when we here in New Hampshire are dying for some warm weather and sunshine. I’d like to go to La Pelosa Beach, of course, but I would spend most of my time exploring the area. The Jeep off-road tour is a must as is the boat tour in the La Maddalena Archipelago. Costa Smeralda sightseeing tour and top it off with the archaeological sites and monuments in Sardinia. Maybe one more day at the beach before I leave. I’ll need it to recover from all the sightseeing!
Yes, a good day relaxing at the beach is the perfect way to wind down and get ready to head home 🙂 Glad you enjoyed your digital visit to Stintino Cynthia, thanks for stopping by.
This to me a complete x ray of Stintino Italy. Yours is well detailed mentioning the beaches, best Stintino restaurants even the nightlife but you seem to be quiet on the security of the place. How secured are the tourists within the place? Generally speaking the entire site is well arranged and properly organised.
There are no travel concerns traveling to Stintino Italy, I guess that is why I don’t list them. If there is an issue or a concern, I would definitely make my readers aware. Glad you are enjoying your visits to Beach travel destinations.
