Casa Sardinia
SARDINIA, ITALY
4 BR | 3 BA | SLEEPS 8
The owners of this Sardinian home aimed to create a cool place to be, harking back to the 1960s and 1970s when people came to the island to hide and not “be seen”. They also love paintings and were compelled to fill the spaces with art. Cozy yet refined, the home has rustic sensibilities like exposed wood beams and raw edge wooden counters in the bathroom, balanced by white space.
The home is split into two structures, a larger building that is slightly higher on the land, with a smaller unit below. The larger of the two has two bedrooms (one on each floor), two bathrooms, an open kitchen, a living room with dining option and a relaxing area in front of the fireplace. Verandas surround it, and there is a pool area with a myriad of lounging options. All around you are the hilltops and sea views.
The smaller unit is also a standalone house with two bedrooms, one bathroom, a kitchen and a living room and a veranda overlooking the olive plantation and the sea.
They both have satellite TV, WiFi and air conditioning in every room. There is a relaxing space in the garden and plenty of parking space throughout the property.

This home is located in Rudalza, a stretch of countryside overlooking the bay of Marinella, which is one of the main beaches in the area. Rudalza is located in the north part of the island, between the gulf of Golfo Aranci and Porto Rotondo in Costa Smeralda, and is very private, remote and stunning.
The island’s spectacular natural beauty is legendary, and its turquoise waters and white sandy beaches (in the Cala di Volpe, Grande Pevero and its smaller sister beach Piccolo Pevero) are some of the best. A little further south is Romazzino and Principe beach along with sheltered coves, including Liscia Ruja and the lovely Cala Capriccioli. You can take a boat to the Golfo di Orosei’s coves or La Maddalena’s cluster of granite islands and the offshore islets of Li Nibani to discover spots accessible only from the sea.
The fishing port of Cannigione is a 25-minute drive from the villa and sells traditional Sardinian ceramics and crafts, and has great morning and evening markets.
