"Tucked into the Golfo degli Aranci, this intimate seven-room boutique grew from a family holiday home bought after a honeymoon in the 1970s and is now run by the owners’ son, Alessandro. Furnishings are lovingly repurposed from the family textile business and flea-market finds, and the property is surrounded by a curated garden, vegetable patch, orchard, olive grove and vineyards—making it an ideal serene retreat immersed in nature. The cuisine prioritizes local ingredients, mornings smell of homemade bakes, meals are served under golden sunsets, and guests can relax by the pool or join hands-on experiences such as a day with a beekeeper or cheese-making workshops." - Nicky Swallow, Lucrezia Worthington

"This blissful hilltop hideaway is a world apart from the daily grind. Peaceful, indulgent and eclectically decorated by debonair Alessandro - the youngest of a Milanese fashion family who spent childhood summers here - it opened in 2014 and has been gaining loyal fans ever since, but the atmosphere remains intimate and exclusive. No pressure or urgency, just a gracious dolce vita of delicious homemade breakfasts, secret white-sand beaches, chilled Vermentino at sunset, and al fresco dinners that celebrate your surroundings. Life flows seamlessly between two outdoor living spaces – one facing the pool, the other the afternoon sun – which spill onto bougainvillea-framed lawns. Cushion-strewn sofas, vintage fittings and salvaged barber's chairs invite you to relax, while lamps made from colour-matched fabric spools evoke his design background. Seven bedrooms are simple and effortlessly elegant. The master suite in the main house is huge, with its own living room and patio; for more privacy, book the separate garden suite a short walk away, with its own relaxation area under an olive tree. Highs Only 20 minutes' drive from Olbia airport, itself only 2 hours flight from the UK (London and regional airports) If you tire of beaches, there are Bronze Age citadels, wineries, pastel villages hidden in granite hills From beekeeping to cheese-making, there are a range of classes to try your hand at The swimming pool is really the final piece in this idyllic jigsaw Alessandro is a very thoughtful host, always happy to share his favourite restaurants, boat trips and local highlights Lows To fully explore the surrounding area and beautiful beaches you’ll need a car It’s a converted family home, so don’t expect hotel-style reception or all-day staff No TVs or radios in the rooms, but this is your chance to switch off" - Michael Cullen
