Villa I Fenicotteri - Six Bedroom Villa, Sleeps 12

Experience exclusivity and sophistication in Porto Rotondo at the beautiful Sardinian home, Villa I Fenicotteri, close to the sandy beaches and crystal-clear sea of the emerald isle. 

The luxuriousness of this impressive house is second to none with its state-of-the-art facilities and upmarket location, yet there’s also an air of Sardinian character throughout this inviting six-bedroom home. The open-plan living and dining space is both charming and stylish with sliding doors leading straight to the veranda with the most incredible sea views, the perfect spot for an aperitivo with friends as well as grand al-fresco feasts in a spectacular setting.

The glorious swimming pool is also a joy with its spa, jet stream feature and underwater music system, surrounded by beautifully maintained gardens dotted with splashes of Mediterranean colour and glimpses of the azure-coloured sea. The summer kitchen and a granite al-fresco dining area can be found amongst the olive trees in a serene and enchanting corner.

Step into the spa and be amazed by the facilities on offer such as the 8-person hydro-pool with massage functions, the bio-sauna, mood shower with mists and scents as well as a steam bath, accompanied by a music system. Next door to the spa, the modern fitness room benefits from Technogym equipment and a virtual trainer.

Just 150m from the end of the garden, visit the nearest beach club with your complimentary pass where you will find a swimming pool, park and the club's private beach. Other idyllic spots for sunbathing and swimming in crystal-clear sea can be found within a short drive or follow the shore in either direction for yet more captivating coastline from the coves of Capriccioli to the wilder Capo Figari.

The heart of Porto Rotondo itself, just 1.5km away, is one of the most upmarket resorts in Italy, home to elegant restaurants, stylish boutiques and glitzy nightclubs as well as a splendid marina with luxurious yachts. Pretty Portisco is just a little further by car or continue north to some of the Costa Smeralda’s other gems including the renowned town of Porto Cervo, another highly glamorous destination.

In the meantime, relax in the elegant surroundings of your villa with its high-end features and services, knowing that you are spending time in one of the island’s most exquisite and exclusive settings.

Location:

Villa I Fenicotteri can be found in a residential area, just a short stroll from the beach, close to the exclusive and stunning resort of Porto Rotondo, north-east Sardinia, just 20km from Olbia Airport.

Wander through the garden, through a pedestrian gate and you are around 150m from a beach club with its swimming pool, large park and access to its private beach with four sunbeds and umbrellas – complimentary use of this beach club is included for up to eight guests at one time and it's open between June and early September.

The heart of Porto Rotondo is 1.5km away, an upmarket resort with a glitzy marina, stylish shops as well as elegant restaurants and bars. It’s also well known for its exclusive nightclubs, not to mention the fantastic beaches around the town.

Idyllic beaches close by include Spiaggia di Ira with its fine white sand, Spiaggia dei Sassi which is perfect for snorkelling and Spiaggia Marinella with its crystal-clear waters and natural setting. Look out for a variety of watersports in this region as well as some excellent beachside restaurants serving the best quality seafood.

The Capo Figari Natural Park is another wonderful area for hiking, mountain biking or horse riding, ideal for discovering fascinating wildlife, flora and fauna as well as more picturesque beaches. There’s a variety of trails to follow, some more challenging than others, and plenty of diving spots. 

The delightful seaside village of Portisco (15km) is also a short drive away where you can admire yet more luxurious yachts. Following the coast north for around half an hour, other wonderful beaches include the enchanting coves of Capriccioli, the renowned beaches around Baia Sardinia and of course Porto Cervo on the Costa Smeralda, the equally upmarket resort that sees itself as a recent rival to the glitz of Porto Rotondo.

Sport enthusiasts note that there are tennis courts just 500m from the villa as well as a spectacular golf course at Pevero Golf Club (25km) on the Costa Smeralda, designed by Robert Trent Jones.
