Overview
5-star historical lighthouse hotel on Sardinia's coast - the only lighthouse in Italy converted into a guest house
Rooms & Suites
Faro Capo Spartivento offers suites in the original 19th-century lighthouse building and separate annexes with private gardens. The sea-view suite in the main building features a circular bed and parquet floors, while garden-view suites in the separate building have their own air conditioning controls. All rooms include free Wi-Fi, air conditioning, a minibar, and Acqua di Parma toiletries.
Dining
The hotel's restaurant serves a set three-course dinner menu (€100 per person) with two choices each for fish and meat courses, using locally sourced Sardinian ingredients. Breakfast is served by the infinity pool with a personalized à la carte menu, and staff prepare packed lunches or a to-go breakfast for early departures. The wine list starts at €60 and focuses on Sardinian labels, though some guests find it overpriced.
Wellness & Pools
Capo Spartivento has an outdoor infinity swimming pool with two adjacent Jacuzzis, plus a second pool in the separate building area. The on-site spa offers full body massages and sauna sessions, and sun loungers are available on the terrace. Guests can also use pool/beach towels and enjoy the beach shuttle service to Cala Cipolla and Su Giudeu beaches.
Location & Activities
Capo Spartivento Lighthouse in Chia sits on a remote promontory 9 km from Domus de Maria, with Cala Cipolla Beach 600 metres away and Su Giudeu Beach 1 km from the property. The hotel offers a free daytime shuttle to these beaches and walking tours along the coast. Nearby attractions include Is Molas Golf Club and nature trails, though the 2 km unpaved access road requires a 4x4 vehicle.
Unique Features
The lighthouse at Capo Spartivento is the only lighthouse in Italy operating as a guest house, with a working light that sweeps at night and access to the turret. Guests can arrive via a private helicopter transfer service or use the free on-site parking. The hotel combines historical military architecture with industrial-style decor, and staff can arrange luggage storage, packed lunches, and meeting facilities.
