We had a great week staying in Bernardo's lovely house in Costa Rei. He and his wife welcomed us and showed us around, explaining how things worked and how to get to the nearest beach on foot. It's an easy walk down into Costa Rei, and the beach is great. There are lots of other beautiful beaches to explore only a short drive away.
The house has everything you need and is beautifully and thoughtfully furnished. There's a lush little garden, and it feels very private. We enjoyed the terrace most of all, sitting looking at the view and eating our meals out there.
The outdoor shower is a bonus. There are lots of things to borrow for days on the beach, such as parasols and beach chairs. Costa Rei is a seaside town with plenty of restaurants and little supermarkets, so you don't need to travel for anything once you've arrived.
Bernardo and his wife have thought of everything a family might need on a holiday. His son Simone was also very helpful during our stay. Grazie mille la famiglia Cugia!
We look forward to returning to Casa Maria for another holiday soon.
