Terme di Aurora in Benetutti, Sardinia, is a traditional thermal spa resort in the Goceano region drawing on the island's sulphate-, sodium-, and chloride-rich spring water for a full programme of classical Italian balneotherapy treatments. The Sardinian thermal tradition, rooted in prehistoric nuragic use of sacred springs and continued through Phoenician, Roman, and medieval periods, gives the island's spa culture exceptional historical depth. The surrounding central Sardinian landscape — cork oak forests, granite formations, and the ancient nuraghi (Bronze Age towers) that dot the hilltops — provides an intensely Sardinian cultural context for this therapeutic thermal experience.

Insider tip — Arrive early in the morning at Terme di Aurora (Benetutti) to enjoy the calm and the sulfate waters.
