In this guide
Travelling with your dog: an uncompromising experience in La Maddalena
Finding accommodation that accepts animals isn't always easy, but for us at Il Maestrale, your four-legged friend is an honoured guest. We believe that holidays in La Maddalena should be enjoyed with the whole family, tails included. The island offers ample open spaces, fragrant paths, and a warm welcome for those travelling with pets. Choosing our holiday home means not having to compromise on the quality of your stay, ensuring your dog has the space and tranquillity needed to enjoy Sardinia as much as you do.
Porto Palma and Caprera's Bau Beach: a paradise for furry swimmers
La Maddalena is at the forefront of pet-friendly tourism. On the island of Caprera, you'll find the famous Bau Beach in Porto Palma, one of the best-equipped dog beaches in Sardinia. Here, your dog can run free, swim in safe waters, and socialise with other travellers in a respectful and clean environment. It's the ideal place to spend a day at the beach without the stress of leaving your adventure companion at home. From Il Maestrale, the beach is easily reachable in just a few minutes by car, making the day's logistics incredibly simple.
Trails and evening walks: your pet's well-being on holiday
In addition to the beaches, the Archipelago offers miles of unpaved trails perfect for morning or evening walks. Walking along the panoramic road of La Maddalena as the sun rises is the best way to start the day in harmony with your pet, breathing in the salty air and the scents of helichrysum bushes.

Staying in an apartment offers flexibility that a hotel cannot guarantee: more spacious areas, the ability to prepare meals for your dog, and no rigid return times. At Il Maestrale, we are well aware of the needs of those travelling with pets and are ready to recommend the best local vets and specialist shops for every need. Booking your summer 2026 with us means giving your dog an unforgettable holiday too, amidst wild nature and the comfort of a home that awaits you with warmth and professionalism.
