Villa Sarah is a charming property in a rural setting close to the fabulous beaches of the Costa Smeralda. It offers a quiet hillside retreat, a fantastic pool area and a lovely shaded terrace and barbecue area for those extended meal times.

The expansive pool area is bound to be the main focus of your stay at the villa, and it won’t disappoint. The pool, with its sunloungers and terracotta tiles, is a real sun trap, but it’s also surrounded by lush vegetation offering copious amounts of shade should you want it.

When you’re tired of the pool, you can retire to an easy chair on the lawn, or to the shaded terrace for a long lunch, taking in the views of the surrounding countryside. The interior of the property is neatly furnished and spacious, featuring a large living room and dining area, a well-equipped kitchen, two bathrooms, and two bedrooms – a double and a twin. The living room features patio doors that allow lovely cool air into the villa, and these open onto the lawn area and appealing views.

Should you want to venture out, you’re never far from the delights of the Costa Smeralda, and the lovely Pevero Beach is only 5km away. Porto Cervo is also nearby, offering a range of bars and restaurants.

About the Local Area

ABOUT AREA

Tucked in among the mountains, San Pantaleo is a rare traditional Galluran village and one of the prettiest on the island. Bursting with character, this charming village is set around a picturesque piazza along with lively cafés and several artisan shops. With its stone-built cottages, stunning position and relaxed atmosphere, many artists have been inspired to take up residency. San Pantaleo is also well poised to explore the many beaches on the Costa Smeralda and the bay of Arzachena. Eat out in the easily found pizzerie and agriturismi (farm restaurants) often owned by members of local families who were here long before any development started.

BEACHES

Tanca Manna
Tanca Manna sits approximately 250 metres from the road behind a saltwater lake. It has a great stretch of sand and plenty of facilities for families. A kilometre beyond Tanca Manna is Barca Bruciata, a small sandy beach which is quiet with no facilities.

Cala Capra
Cala Capra beach just beyond Golfo delle Saline is a pretty sandy bay tucked beneath the impressive Capo D’Orso headland with its distinctive bear shaped weathered rock.

Capriccioli
The Capriccioli headland has five beautiful small sandy beaches. There are facilities for boat hire and also a bar close to the beach. These beaches, including La Celvia, are amongst the most popular in the area.

Spiaggia del Principe
Rather off the beaten track is the Spiaggia del Principe which cannot be reached by car. The last stretch has to be done on foot takes under 10 minutes and is well worth the effort.
