Opening Period : Hotel Nascar

What CharmingSardinia.com thinks about Hotel Nascar
The Hotel is located in Santa Maria Navarrese, in the beautiful and still wild region of Ogliastra, in the central eastern coast of Sardinia. The nature in which it occurs is enviable, among the crystal clear sea and mountains. It is suitable for travellers looking for a familiar, genuine and warm atmosphere, away from crowds and urban life.

Location
The Hotel Nascar is located in the historical center of Santa Maria Navarrese, a small fishing village in the Gulf of Orosei. At 50 meters from the sea and 150 m from the marina, in a garden of oaks and close to a thousand years old olive trees, the hotel has the advantage of being in town but not far from several points of interest. The nearest airport is Cagliari, 138 km away, while that of Olbia is at 191 km.

Hotel
The name of this small but charming Hotel Nascar has a historical background. The story says that around the year 1000, the Church of Navarre, as it is named now, had the name of Temple of NASCAR. In the year 1052, a daughter of the King of Navarre arrived in this part of the coast and, having overcome terrible weather conditions during the crossing, she decided to make a vow and build a church in honour of Saint Mary. In addition to this historical origin, the name of this hotel may have been suggested by a delicate yellow flower common in the Mediterranean area. The Hotel Nascar is the result of a careful renovation, completed in 2008, of an old structure built in local granite during the year 1800. The building was originally used as a granary before being used for the production of wine. Even if the original architecture has been preserved, the hotel appears now to be warm and welcoming featuring a modern Sardinian style. In addition to these structural details, we should note that the professionalism and kindness of the owners and their employees will considerably contribute to make of the simple accommodation a luxury place with details worth of an exclusive hotel.

Rooms
The 12 rooms of the Hotel Nascar are modern and very good equipped. All of them feature unique details that differentiate one from the other. The accommodations are simple and the dominant colour is white but they are all furnished with attention to detail what makes the location elegant and charming. Spacious and bright, they have been furnished with wooden pieces of furniture but also wrought iron, nice and colourful ceramics and embellished by handmade Sardinian fabrics and unique juniper wood details. They are all equipped with all the modern comforts: telephone, mini bar, air conditioner, TV sat with LCD screen, hairdryer, shower or bathtub. Classic rooms are equipped for disabled guests.
