The cleanest hotel we ever stayed in our life. It is absolutely mind blowing how Pietro keeps this place so nice and clean. Location is perfect, easy to get in and out, a few steps to the central parking lot and from the ferry to Madalegna. Many good restaurants, shops, and close enough by car to many of the gorgeous beaches in Costa Esmeralda. Pietro was 100% in everything. Top service, super friendly, complementary water, soda, beer, fruits and excellent breakfast with pastries from the bakery next door.

Secluded property but well located, close to the ferry to the Maddalena Island. There was work being done at the entrance of the B&B but it was no problem to get in and out. There are stairs but my husband and I just had carry-ons. The room had an extra bed not used by us, a fridge, a spacious closet, a net against mosquitoes, but we kept the door closed to use the air conditioner. Bathroom with good natural light. Generous breakfast but we couldn't eat much because of traveling. The owner offered to take away. We enjoyed the stay and will reserve it again, when we return to the Maddalena Islands. Thank you.

The best and kind hotel manager. The property is super clean and makes you feel just like you are at home away from home. Very close to all the restaurants and the marina of Palau so you can take a ferry to La Maddalena if you wish. Breakfast is more than enough and quite abundant and satisfying that there were always leftovers that the manager always encouraged to take with us during the day, which was so kind. He even gave us a souvenir on our last day, will definitely stay again.

We really enjoyed this Bed & Breakfast, which is a first for us. It is a friendly, clean, and warm place. For breakfast, they served us both savory and sweet foods, we could even take a packed lunch for noon. The only small downside is the language barrier, unfortunately we do not speak Italian and the hosts do not speak French or English. I recommend this B&B.

Nothing to complain about this B&B, everything was perfect! Thanks to Pietro for his welcome, the room was very clean, Pietro had arranged for us a guide to Palau in French, a city map, he showed us where to eat. The breakfast was fabulous, a divine hot chocolate! Everything was really very good and in more than enough quantity! You can take away what's left (small bags provided to facilitate transport) of fruit, yogurt, charcuterie, cheese, bread, croissant, biscuits, orange juice, fruit salad! We recommend this B&B without hesitation! Really the best we could do.

Pietro is a perfectionist - this is reflected in the entire living area. High quality furnishings, focusing on every smallest detail, perfect cleanliness and very good and plentiful breakfast. If Pietro had made an effort to also make a bit of small talk in a language other than Italian (e.g. English or German) or a friendly smile now and then, our overall rating would have been perfect. One downside is the parking - as the B&B is very central, and most parking spaces are reserved for residents, sometimes you have to circle around to find a parking spot.

The owner is very kind and helpful. He treated us very well. Upon arrival, he offered us some drinks. He immediately gave us information about the area. We asked him for a beach umbrella, and he lent it to us. The room was very cozy, spacious, and had everything we needed. The room has the amenities of a 5-star hotel, it is spacious with the comfort of being in your own home. If I went back, I would repeat the experience.

The stay at this bed and breakfast was simply perfect! The host, Pietro, was extremely kind, helpful and attentive to every need, ready to provide useful advice and make the stay as pleasant as possible. The room was spotless, cared for down to the smallest details and very well equipped: truly comfortable and welcoming. Breakfast was a real treat: abundant, varied and of excellent quality, with fresh products, bakery croissants and homemade cakes. The location is perfect: in the city center, a short walk from the marina where ferries depart for La Maddalena and also very convenient for reaching the area's beautiful beaches. Highly recommended, we will definitely return!

The answer from the host:
La nostra struttura è la migliore a Palau (9.5 volutazione Booking.com - Valutazione BB.IT: 9.9 su 10 - Valutazione TripAdvisor: al n. 1 su circa 20 strutture recensite. Il prezzo di 125 euro nel mese di agosto è del 40% inferiore alle altre strutture di Palau che hanno valutazioni assai inferiori all'Orso il Mare.

Omaggi di benvenuto: macchina del caffè con 2 caffe gratuiti al giorno, biscottti, The e tisane, frutta fresca, acqua, aranciata e birra, tutto compreso nel prezzo. Rispettiamo le opinioni di tutti.

Very well-maintained property just a step away from the center and the port. Extremely clean rooms with a new 43-inch HD TV (in my room), fridge, air conditioning, Wifi, safe, coffee or tea machine. The owner, Mr. Pietro, a very kind person who makes you feel at home, pampers the customer with a thousand attentions. Finding water, drinks, and fresh fruit in the room as a gift was much appreciated. I will definitely return.

L'Orso e il Mare is a superbly run, charming B&B in a beautiful location in a stunning area of the coast. The owner, Pietro, was exceptional. On arrival we were provided with an excellent orientation to the town and local sites. The map provided was hand annotated with notes re places to visit, where to make bookings for day tours, suggested restaurants etc. Breakfast was delicious and varied with great coffee. We were encouraged to make up bread rolls with any leftovers to take with us for lunch. A great idea! The full sized fridge in the room and tea and coffee making facilities were very welcome. The B&B is in an excellent location in Palau. It is only minutes from: the port with ferries to La Maddalena and the Archipelago, beaches, the main shopping street, restaurants and the local night markets. We had a wonderful stay and highly recommend this delightful accommodation.

B&B very very clean, quite spacious rooms, super breakfasts and a very kind and present owner. Strategic point to visit L'Orso e il Mare - Adults Only (ferries depart a short distance away), also close to shopping and restaurants in Palau. I highly recommend.

What a fantastic Bed and Breakfast and what a wonderful host Mr. Pietro is: the structure is meticulously cared for in every detail, from the decorations on the furniture, to the very original paintings, to the richness of the sweet and savory breakfast with cappuccino, fresh fruit salad, cold cuts and cheeses, yogurt, croissants and fresh bread and surprise of surprises: Pietro tells us to take everything we have left from breakfast. Never happened in any other Bed and Breakfast. He provided us with a personalized map of Palau with recommended restaurants that we tried and were satisfied with. The room was large, well furnished, with fruit, kettle, tea bags and herbal teas and a bottle of water all for us. The bathroom with two sinks and a large and comfortable shower with hydromassage! What can I say: everything perfect and at a truly great price. Thanks again to Pietro for his kindness, availability and elegance of appearance and manners. We will definitely be back! Highly highly recommended.

We stayed my wife and I for the second time at the B&B 'L'Orso e il Mare - Adults Only'. I'll be brief: don't waste time looking for anything else. In the area, it's the number 1 and in my opinion, it deserves top marks, especially for value for money. Excellent.

We stayed there a few days ago, unfortunately just passing through. Small but cozy B&B, and above all equipped with all the comforts. We will definitely return! Rating 10! More than a B&B, a 5-star hotel, top owner.

Sunny, clean and tidy rooms, newly plastered with modern and newly designed supplies. Abundant breakfast in the dedicated hall with fresh daily food. Mr. Pietro manages discreetly without oppressing but being attentive and ready to the smallest details. Parking in front of the entrance. Two days were not enough to detect anomalies, I think you can't ask for better. See you next time. Franco.
