Guests who wish to stay overnight enjoy spacious rooms decorated in the style of the surrounding Gallura landscape. Every room (Single, Double, and Triple) is equipped with satellite TV and free Wi‑Fi, and the rates reflect the quality of accommodation with Single rooms starting at €40 and Triple rooms at €120. Whether you’re a food lover, history enthusiast, or simply seeking a peaceful retreat, Al Vecchio Corso offers an all‑inclusive experience that showcases Sardinia’s culinary and architectural heritage.
