Map & location
Cannigione, Sardinia, Italy
Cannigione stretches along a natural inlet on Sardinia’s north coast, with a laid-back village feel, fishing boats in the marina and sandy Spiaggia di Cannigione backing onto a promenade of bars, gelaterie and restaurants.
From Blu Hotel Morisco you’re just a short walk from the resort centre and harbour, putting you in a great spot for boat excursions to secret coves and nearby islands, or for driving out to the famous beaches of the Costa Smeralda. It’s quieter and more authentic than the flashiest neighbours, but you still get turquoise water and classic Sardinian scenery.

Facilities
Pool & outdoors
The focal point of the hotel is its generous outdoor freshwater pool, framed by sunbathing terraces with loungers and parasols. There’s a separate shallow section for children, so families can splash while adults relax nearby. The main pool usually operates from early April to late October (dates can shift with the season and weather).
Spiaggia di Cannigione – a golden, gently shelving sandy beach – is around 500m away. Its calm, clear water is ideal for swimming, snorkelling and family paddling, and local operators in the area offer boat trips, scuba and water-based excursions to nearby coves and islands.
Spa, sports & wellness
Active guests can make use of the air-conditioned gym, equipped mainly with cardio machines and typically open 08:00–20:00 from late March to early November (hours and dates depend on occupancy). Football and tennis are also available for a bit of friendly competition.
For younger guests there’s a simple outdoor playground with slides and see-saws (age and height restrictions can apply), plus highchairs in the restaurant.
Core guest services include a reception area with seating and free Wi‑Fi, and local information for boat trips, car hire and exploring the Costa Smeralda. Facilities and opening times may vary slightly through the season.

Food & drink
Half Board at Blu Hotel Morisco keeps mealtimes relaxed. The Morisco Restaurant is a buffet venue serving breakfast and dinner, with a mix of Italian flavours and international crowd-pleasers. Highchairs are available, and beachwear is not permitted at dinner.
The Morisco Bar in the lobby serves a range of local and international drinks from mid-morning until late at night (typically 10:00–00:00 in season), making it an easy rendezvous before or after a wander along the promenade.
A nice seasonal extra: for stays between March and November 2025, guests receive a prepaid card worth €80 per room per stay at check-in, to use for drinks and snacks in the bar and restaurant during the stay (unused balances are not refunded; subject to change).
