Hillside Villa, Panorâmica Vista Mar, Praias, Reserva Marinha

A quick drive from the airport. We were 5 adults from different corners of the world. From the moment we each arrived at the house we were instantly relaxed. The house is clean, comfortable and very spacious. We especially enjoyed the two terraces - relax, eat, hang your beach clothes to dry :) The location is fantastic. Quiet and peaceful with incredible views that continued to impress. A quick drive or even walk into town. Joe and Marisa provided a ton of useful information and were quick to respond to any questions we had. I look forward to coming back here soon!

This was our third time in 10 years at the villa.. We love the house, especially the location with its stunning views, the unspoilt village and the numerous beaches. The owners provides updated helpful information that exceeds guide books such as Lonely Planet.

Previously we had been at the villa in May and late July. This time we tried late September. Perfect weather.

We took advantage of the cooler temperatures to do lots of walking, There are beautiful coastal walks as well as some spectacular nearby mountain walks. The most spectacular of all the walks was a climb up to the 550 meter high mountain on Isola de Tavolaro, which the villa looks out on and is as spectacular as the Rock of Gibraltar but much more conserved as it is part of a marine national park. The owner referred us to the only guide who recently gained permission to takes groups to the top. The circuit is safe with ropes in place to hold onto for security on the ascent. You can see Corsica from the peak. There is a fantastic repel off the top on the route down. And there is a beach-side restaurant at the bottom to celebrate the climb.

We have been climbing and trekking all over the Mediterranean and the Tavolara excursion is unique. In the days following the climb it was nice to look out at the mountain from the balcony of the villa with binoculars, trace the route and savor the trip up and down.

La Sardegna e' tutta bella, ma questa parte e' veramente speciale, con baie e baiette diverse da scoprire ogni giorno. La casa ha una vista mozzafiato, gli spazi all'aperto sono grandi. Perfetti I nostri aperitivi sul balcone e le nostre cene in terrazza sotto lo sguardo perfetto della Tavolara! Indimenticabile

We had a wonderful stay at the villa in Porto San Paolo, which has all the advantages of a home and very much the feel of a holiday house. It was a delight to have breakfast on the terrace, which has a sumptuous view over a small valley and over the sea, including the dramatic profile of Tavolara, and to be there again for dinner, chatting late into the night. There are many activities close by — the short day-trip to Tavolara is a must — and the village offers all amenities, including pizza bars, restaurants, artisan shops and ice cream parlours. We discovered a number of top-notch beaches close by that each warranted a daily visit. In all, an exceptional holiday destination!
