Is It Better to Fly to Alghero or Olbia?

The best choice depends mainly on your final destination in Sardinia.

Alghero is the most convenient option for reaching Alghero, Stintino, Sassari and the north-western part of the island in general.
Olbia is closer to Gallura and destinations such as the Costa Smeralda, Porto Cervo and San Teodoro.

For travellers heading to Stintino and Villa Flor, Alghero is geographically the closest airport and significantly reduces the overland transfer time compared with Olbia.

Olbia may nevertheless be worth considering when it offers a direct connection from your departure city that is not available to Alghero. In this case, it is advisable to compare the journey as a whole, taking into account possible connections, flight times, car rental and the transfer time to Stintino.

How to Reach Stintino and Villa Flor from Alghero Airport

Alghero-Fertilia Airport is the closest airport to Stintino, making it the most convenient option for reaching Villa Flor by air.

From the airport, travellers can continue to Stintino by rental car or arrange a private transfer. Having a car can also be useful during the stay, particularly for exploring Stintino, Alghero and other destinations in north-western Sardinia independently.

It is advisable to arrange the airport transfer when booking your flight, especially when arriving late in the evening or during busier travel periods.

When to Book Flights to Alghero

Prices and availability depend on the travel period, departure city, airline and demand. There is therefore no specific booking time that automatically guarantees the best fare.

For stays in July and August, it is advisable to check flight options well in advance, particularly when travel dates are fixed. For trips in spring, September and October, it is especially important to check the operating calendar of each individual route, as many connections are seasonal.

Before booking, it is worth comparing:

the availability of a direct flight on your preferred travel dates;
the departure airport;
arrival and departure times;
baggage included in the fare;
any connecting flights;
the transfer from the airport to your final destination.

For travellers staying in Stintino, the proximity of Alghero Airport can have a significant impact on the overall journey time and should therefore be considered alongside the cost of the flight.

the team of this house is always reachable and they help us at any time. the pool is beautiful and we wanted to stay all day! the most beautiful beach in this area is 5 minutes from the house by car. otherwise you have to drive quite a bit to discover the spots. Sardinia is big. you should know that the house's wi-fi hardly works. if you plan to work with it, you will quickly get annoyed. Sardinia imposes strict sorting of trash. since we are not used to sorting in 4 and following the schedule every day to take out the trash, it was annoying. It's a matter of habit. Otherwise , the house is nice as well as Roberta&Angelo.

Roberta & Angelo, are amazing host, really helpful, quick with responses and went over and beyond to ensure our holiday was prefect. Recommending great local restaurants, activities, boat trips and the private cooking classes. The villa, is even more incredible than the pictures. Sea views from the terrace are out of this world. The villa has all the amenities which accommodated for our group. As we were a large group all the living/ social areas fit us comfortably. All the bedrooms are spacious and comfortable for a good night sleep.The area, villa is a short walk to beach and local food shop, we hired a car which was really useful to get around. Overall great villa, with incredible thoughtful hosts, will definitely come back. Highly recommended

Fantastic location, great facilities. Separation of upstairs and downstairs worked very well for our large party of adults and children. Roberta was very helpful with local tips and suggestions and responded very quickly to all queries.

If you wish to be near Stintino's beaches you find no better house than this one. It a great house that sits within walking distance of a coastline that offers great views of spectacularly clear water against the background of pretty islands. The house is generously proportioned and well-furnished for a large group like ours (4 couples and one single adult). Three of the bedrooms have aircon, and the others are cool at night without it. The house's many bathrooms function well, and its kitchen is well-equipped. Dining tables inside and outside the house easily accommodate a group the size of ours.The pool is wonderfully large and set in a lovely colourful garden right next to the house. The roof terrace offers spectacular views of the nearby sea whose water is probably the most attractive anywhere in Europe. The agency that deals with the house is responsive and helpful. A pool-man and a gardener come around every day. Our only small gripe is that the closest beach (10 minutes walking distance away) is more of a pool-club than a beach. It has only a few feet of sandy access to the sea-water (but, in an unusual feature for a beach, has a large swimming pool). To spend time on the beach itself (rather than in the adjacent bar or the restaurant) guests have to hire deck chairs at high daily rates. About 20-25 minutes walking distance from the house is another beach that some guide-books consider one of the best in Europe; but it is exceptionally busy (in high season) and virtually completely covered in parasols all day. We made good use of our cars, both for shopping (there are no supermarkets within walking distance) and for sightseeing, and we found the beaches near Alghero somewhat less crowded and a lot more attractive than the ones near the house. Alghero is a must-see destination anyway. It is a city with a wonderfully well-preserved and charming old town. Separately the drive along the coastline just south of Alghero is very attractive. Stintino town is cute and attractive as well but be prepared to find it difficult to park there unless you go in the siesta hours.
