Ferieboliger nær Lampianu-stranden

We had a relaxing second week on Sardinia, at this beautiful place Marco and his family has built up. The apartment was well equipped with necessary items for staying, cooking, relaxing etc, and if we had any questions or needs, Marco would immediately respond. The surrounding garden is beautiful, with areas to play and a henhouse with a rooster and chickens - we even got fresh eggs from Pietro one morning. It is highly necessary to have a car, as the nearest market to get basic food is quite a distance away (in Palmedula), and the restaurants are even further away. So this is a place to stay and home cook for dinner, or come back to at night after eating out. There is a nice barbeque to be used outside, that we tried sucessfully, and a takeaway pizzeria in Palmedula, for those dinners one choses not to make yourself. What we missed most, was a small country town in a walking distance, to get fresh bread in the morning, and eat out in at night. Hence the 4 stars instead of 5. The pool was nice and clean - the kids (11 and 15) liked it there, especially before and after some hours at the beach. Beautiful beaches to be found near Stintino and Alghero - by car (prepare to do some driving). At night, one can hear lots of animal sounds (mostly dogs, cats, chickens and crickets), so an advice for sensitive ears is to bring earplugs. I can definately recommend La Chintana as a calm, relaxing place to stay, with great hospitality from the Leoni family.
