A long stretch of fine sand bordering an extensive private park with a few exclusive villas nestling amongst the vegetation, most of them overlooking the emerald green sea. Hiding away amongst the typical Mediterranean woods of corbezzolo, juniper bushes and trees.

This is a protected private area with 24 hrs security service. Still undiscovered by main stream tourism it has been kept by tight buildings regulations which maintained the area as it was 30 years ago when Sardinia was still a land of shepherds. If you seek peace and relaxation, here you will find it. The days will pass marked only by the sound of the waves.

The villa was built 20 years ago when it was yet not forbidden to build on these shores. It is made of local granite stones and has all the typical architectural elements of a Mediterranean villa. It can be enjoyed from early spring to late autumn.
