8/10
In Punta Ala, the Scoglietto 50 is a good place to stay. This is a condominium complex with no amenities.
PROS: Adjacent to the beautiful Punta Ala Golf Course with spectacular views of the Mediterranean and empty. For golf lovers, we highly recommend. Walking distance (10-15 minutes) to a grocery store, restaurants. Walking distance (15 minutes) to a decent, but not spectacular beach. Nice running path parallel to the beach (and you can also run on the beach). The water is shallow. For a family with young children, this is a safe beach. It is safe and very quiet. Not a lot of tourists (very much a local Italian resort); but nothing to do for adolescents and young single adults (no nightlife). So, it depends on what you are looking for.
CONS: Our 2 bedroom condo (with a 3rd Harry Potter type room with 2 twin beds) was ok with good air conditioning, washing machine, dishwasher. HOWEVER, the safe deposit box was broken and there is no coffee machine. We made do with instant coffee. No swimming pool. While the beach is a 15 minute walk away, it is mostly private. Local restaurants and hotels have "privatized" the beach by filling it up with deckchairs.There is very little space between the deck chairs and the water (just enough to walk on the sand, but not to lay down a towel). But if you pay for a deckchair, then you can enjoy the beach.
We enjoyed our 7 night stay (there for a wedding). But, the condo and the restaurants, etc...are expensive for what you get.
