Sardinia
50cent
Holidayed in Sardinia last year - stayed in the Hotel Calabona on the outskirts of Alghero - they have a website.
It is much cheaper flying Ryanair from Stansted to Alghero and organising your own accommodation rather than booking a package holiday. Got talking to some English people while there who flew in for weekend/week/fortnight breaks with Ryanair for less than STG £30 return.
Locals were very friendly and went out of their way to be of help.
We found it hard to spend money - there are plenty of restaurants but they all offer the same type of Italian cuisine. By the end of the second week, I'd have killed for a Chicken with Ginger and Sping Onion. (Anyone looking to open a Chinese/Indian/Thai restaurant, should start by looking in Alghero).
While there, a re-match of the 1982 World Cup Final between Italy and Germany was held in the local stadium. The two teams stayed in our hotel. Had a great time with Paula Rossi, Marco Tardelli, Claudio Gentile etc. Sheer heaven
