"Perched on the heights of San Pantaleo with glimpses of the Gulf of Arzachena, this 27-room hideaway conceived by architect Rosella Marchese and Chef Luigi Bergeretto blends eclectic interiors with rooms and stone huts that often have private gardens and small pools. Luigi oversees two restaurants, including the Michelin-starred Il Fuoco Sacro (in consultation with Enrico Bartolini), and I consider the linguine with black lemon sauce, raw local prawns and bottarga a must-try; the property also offers a Balinese hut for massages, a separate spa and a small open-air gym near the shared pool." - Nicky Swallow, Lucrezia Worthington
