Olimpo

You can basically hear this image, right? The sound of that perfectly blue water lapping gently against the soft white sand of the shore immediately comes to mind and one is filled with the desire to escape to such a spot. This incredibly beautiful beach is one of many fine stretches of coast on the island of Sardinia but has to be up there amongst the best of the best. Spiaggia della Licciola is a gorgeous beach in Santa Teresa Gallura, a wonderful seaside town that is very special and a must for beach-lovers who have found a vacation rental in Sardinia.

While the town has much in the way of nightlife entertainment, with plenty of bars, nightclubs, live music, and a great jazz festival each August, the town and the surrounding area is really an attractive spot for those who enjoy the great outdoors and immense natural beauty.

The La Maddalena archipelago is a group of beautiful islands located off the north eastern region and island of Sardinia. It consists of seven main islands which are decorated with some pretty little islets. The largest is called Maddalena and has a town of the same name located on it.

Stay on the stunning island and region of Sardinia in a gorgeous holiday villa where you can easily travel to the La Maddalena islands for a glorious day of sightseeing!

The other six islands are called Caprera, Santo Stefano, Spargi, Razzoli, Santa Maria and Budelli. Only three of these; Maddalena, Caprera and Santo Stefano, are inhabited. Evidence of humans living on some of these islands during the Prehistoric age has been discovered and is available for tourists to learn more about when they come and see for themselves.

If you’re planning a holiday to the island and region of Sardinia on your next Italian getaway, be sure to visit some of its spectacular Blue Flag beaches!

Situated on the north of the island is the rural rocky beach on the La Maddalena island called Punta Tegge. The views of pretty little islets and the other islands of the Sardinian archipelago from here are truly breath taking!

Treat yourself, family and friends to a superb stay at a vacation villa in Sardinia where you will be greeted with breathtaking views wherever you look.

There is an excellent range of amenities and activities to keep you completely content and entertained on your holiday!

The Arcipelago di La Maddalena National Park is a truly stunning geomarine national park on the coast of Sardinia that was established in 1994. Covering an area of over 12,000 hectares and stretching along 180 kilometers of coastline, it is comprised of a group of islands and islets located on the north-east of the coast of Gallura, in the stretch of sea between Sardinia and Corsica known as Bocche di Bonifacio, which is soon to be recognised as an international marine park.

All of these islands are either deserted or are only scattered with small human settlements, beside La Maddalena. As a result, it is an area of natural beauty that has largely been untouched and unaltered by human hands. It is just endless, impossibly blue skies and seas, lush hills and greenery, coves, inlets, and long stretches of pretty beaches. An unforgettable and beautiful place, it is a must-see for anyone who has found a vacation rental in Sardinia.

Sardinia, by virtue of being an island, has no shortage of beautiful beaches. By virtue of its location in the Mediterranean, it is also assured that those beaches truly are stunning things to behold, all perfect sands contrasted by azure seas. There is, however, a particular stretch of the coast around Sardinia that is well-known for being especially beautiful. This is the Costa Smeralda.

The Costa Smeralda is located on Sardinia's northeastern coast between the Gulfs of Arzachena and Cugnana, the Costa Smeralda or Emerald Coast and owes its name to its particular hue of sea: an emerald blue that almost seems too beautiful to be real. This stretch of coast has much to offer from its beaches to seaside towns and all of the activities and attractions that come with both. If you are looking for a dreamlike holiday, just find a vacation rental in Sardinia and begin exploring this incredible part of the world.

The stunning Costa Smeralda (or, “Emerald Coast”) in Sardinia is famous for its beaches. These are some of the most truly beautiful beaches in Italy and in the world, characterised by crystal clear waters lapping white powdery sands and framed by lush vegetation. If you have found a luxury villa in Sardinia and are looking to spend time on a beach that seems too gorgeous to be real, then you need to make your way to this true paradise on earth. In particular, we recommend the beach of Poltu di Li Cogghj.

Poltu di Li Cogghj is today more often known as the Spiaggia del Principe, the, “Prince's Beach,” since it was famously chosen as the Ishmaelite prince Karim Aga Khan's favourite of all of the many beautiful beaches of the Costa Smeralda due to its especially fine white sands and its crystalline waters that range in hue from green to blue and gleam picturesquely, due to their shallowness and the flecks of granite among the sand. The prince's choosing of the beach as the best and the bestowing of this new title has seen the original name all but fall completely out of use, which is, perhaps a good thing as it rolls off the tongue less easily and given that it translates to the, “Port of Skins.” A rather less pretty name for a beach, it was so-named as the beach was originally used as a place for the loading of various local products but especially leather and leather goods.
