About Luxury Villa in Sardinia, Italy

With so much history alongside the vibrant towns, there is something that everyone will enjoy whilst on a luxury villa holiday in Sardinia. You can find secluded beaches, dine in some of the local restaurants and explore the traditional markets, truly embracing their way of life.

With more than a thousand miles of coastline, from sandy beaches, to pretty coves and inlets, to white undulating cliffs, there is so much here for lovers of sun, sand and sea. You’ll be spoilt for choice for nice beaches but some of the best are: Rena Bianca with its sparkling white sand and Piccolo Pevero in Porto Cervo; Poetto Beach, just south of Cagliari, with its beach flamingos in the lagoon nearby; Ira Beach and Blue Beach in Porto Rotondo; and – at the opposite end of the scale – the natural, wild and often-deserted beaches of the Costa Verde.

An underdog when it comes to beach clubs, spread across the island you will find a host of exclusive beachfront spots to while away your days. Sophisticated chill out spot turned lively hangout by sundown, Phi Beach Club is recommend by Michelin for Italian and Mediterranean dishes served with a side of sunset.

For a day away from your luxury villa, Sardinia is teeming with history, both ancient and modern to explore. Make a day trip to Arzachena, to explore the island’s fascinating Nuragic civilisation, its ‘Giants’ Tombs’ and the nuraghi themselves, the island’s mysterious stone dwellings found dotted all over the prehistoric villages. Or visit the pretty medieval city of Oristano and nearby ancient ruins of Tharros. Olbia also has plenty to see too, from the Pisan-style church of San Simplicio to its wonderful Museo Archeologico, where you can lose yourself for hours in the island’s fascinating past.

Inland, rugged landscapes make for great hiking and opportunities to immerse yourself in nature, while over on the Costa Smerelda, playground of the super-rich, you can happily sit and celeb-watch all afternoon over drinks.

BEST TIME
TO VISIT

August tends to be the most popular month to visit Sardinia when the weather is warm and sunny, but there’s something to enjoy when on a luxury villa holiday at almost any time of year here. December through to March can be a little chilly but from April to October the weather is generally good, with warmer days in June and September.

What we love about Sardinia

We love visiting the Parco Arcipelago di Maddelena, a geomarine national park where you can see hundreds of rare plants as well as watch dolphins play.

Getting to Sardina

Sardinia’s main airport is at Cagliari. There are also two smaller airports at Alghero and Olbia.

Best Places To Eat and Drink in Sardinia

Food fans will find plenty to indulge in here, from tender pork and other slow-cooked meats, to crisp flat breads, fresh seafood, fragrant herbs, wonderful cheeses and full-bodied wines. There’s a good mix of restaurants from the high-end to the very reasonable and local but the lovely thing about Sardinia is that even an average trattoria is often a fabulous experience here so you will find something for everyone on a luxury villa holiday here.

Try Gianni Pedrinelli on chef’s night of at your luxury villa, it offers a wonderful meal in a beautiful indoor-outdoor setting. Or for something a little different, tuck into Brazilian cuisine at Aruana – both are in Porto Cervo.

Elegant but understated and great for seafood is Da Giovannino in Porto Rotondo. When lobster is in season, La Lepanto, which specialises in lobster done every way you can imagine, is well worth a visit.

If you’re in Cagliari try Su Cumbidu in the old town hall, where the suckling pig is an experience you’ll never forget.

Finally, a trip to San Benedetto market is a must while you’re here to sample and buy fresh breads, seafoods, fresh pasta and a hundred other local specialities in a bustling, convivial atmosphere.

Luxury Villa Holidays in Sardinia

The second largest island in the Mediterranean Sea after Sicily, this Italian destination is renowned for its magical, laid back ambience. The crowd here is stylish, cosmopolitan and super chic. And if one thing is certain during your luxury villa holiday in Sardinia, you’ll make life long memories.

If you choose a property in or close to Porto Cervo, the capital of the Costa Smeralda in northern Sardinia, you’ll see for yourself why it has earned a reputation as one of the most exclusive resorts in the world. Its yacht-filled marina is a sight to behold.

Then there’s Porto Rotondo, between the Gulf of Cugnana and the Gulf of Marinella; home to some of the most stunning beaches and coastline on the Emerald Coast.

If you choose a luxury villa by the beach or on the waterfront, you can just drink in the views as you feel yourself immediately unwinding.

Foodies will delight at the dining options available in Sardinia. Try authentic I Fratti Rossi, south of Porto Cervo, for stunningly presented local ingredients. At Madai, on the harbour promenade, you can enjoy sea views with your expertly cooked seafood. In Porto Retondo, Da Giovannino is one of the area’s best restaurants and is famous for its scrumptious antipasti. Then there’s Paramare which overlooks the busy harbour. It’s perfect for a spot of yacht-watching as you tuck into wonderful fresh dishes.

If you prefer dining chez vous, you can shop for freshly grown local produce at one of Sardinia’s wonderful fresh food markets. The kitchen at your luxury villa will be well equipped for any budding Antonio Carluccios in your party.

But if you prefer not to cook, (and who could blame you?), we can arrange the services of a chef to create a Sardinian feast for you instead. There’s nothing quite like eating al fresco on the terrace at a luxury Sardinian villa with sea views. Imagine slicing into an expertly cooked steak, before sampling another glass of the finest local vino, as you listen to the sound of the ocean below.

During your stay we can arrange for a team of staff will be on hand to see to your every request and keep things tidy. Specialist staff including childminders, masseuses and beauty therapists can be ready to spring into action. No detail will be left to chance.

Between swims, you can relax in the manicured gardens at Villa Oralee. Built straight into the rock above Porto Rotondo, this luxury villa has a unique feel.
