Architect-designed villa, spectacular sea views, pool

A Savin Couëlle designed villa set high on a hill overlooking Pitrizza Bay, the National Marine Park of La Maddalena and Corsica in the distance. In front of the villa is a secluded garden surrounded by oleander and olive trees while at the rear of the property is a private terrace, garden and small, kidney-shaped pool. The main level of the house consists of a living room, front terrace with expansive sea views, kitchen, guest WC and rear terrace with covered dining area and small gas grill. The lower level includes a large double bedroom and a twin bedroom, both with en-suite toilet and showers. The twin bedroom has French doors leading to a patio and front garden. The top floor of the house consists of the master double bedroom, en-suite shower room, and a top terrace with spectacular views in three directions. The nearest beach is a 15 minute walk (2 minute drive).

Outdoor seating: The top terrace has 4 teak chairs and table, and a teak sun lounger. The main level front and rear terraces have ample seating with cushions. The rear eating area has a large stone dining table with chairs, small gas grill, and kitchen herb garden. Two teak benches are available in the garden.

Garden: The private garden has a number of bougainvillea, oleander, hibiscus and other flowering shrubs, a mature fig tree with excellent fruit in season (Aug/Sept), a small lemon tree, bay trees and various kitchen herbs.

Fantastic holiday at Volpaia
A truly stunning location- the villa has amazing views and is very comfortable and well equipped . Lovely quiet residential area with a local beach just 10 minutes walk away. Excellent choice of restaurants within walking distance. We couldn’t have asked for more and had a really lovely holiday. Thank you to Michael for being so helpful and responding to my queries so quickly. We loved it!!!! Highly recommend!

Amazing stay and location super close to Porto Cervo
Great place with amazing views. Everything we needed for our family of 4. Only observation is that house is not ideal for tall people (3 out of 4 members of family are over 6’5”) but we quickly got adjusted and didn’t think about it much. Owner was lovely and communicative and cleaning lady was a doll.

Sardinia & Villa Volpaia are what vacation dreams are made of!
If my title doesn't speak for itself, then I'll just add that we had the most amazing family vacation at Villa Volpaia due to the absolute uniqueness of the home... the architecture, the gardens, the balconies & the views! All of it stunning. Liscia di Vacca & the charming little street that the villa is on, felt like like a perfect nook amongst the glitz & glamour of Porto Cervo & the Costa Smeralda. Was just our speed, and we simply adored it. On a more practical note- the handful of restaurants within walking distance from the house were perfect for our needs, as well as the market & pharmacy. Bruno the caretaker was easy to communicate with and was super helpful when we had a minor issue. This is by no means a negative thing, but the stairs in this house are no joke! It is clearly stated in the description, but I didn't give it much thought to be honest. I'm only mentioning it here because we had a 7 year old and a grandmother with a bad knee, and the stairs became the topic of much conversation during our stay. ;) Beaches and other excursions were easy to get to from the villa, (with a car), and we appreciated all the information in the book. (Although we spent too much money at the linen shop in San Pantaleo thanks to that suggestion, haha!) Many, many thanks for sharing your special home with us. We hope to be back someday!

Gorgeous house and stunning views
We stayed at this beautiful home with our adult daughters and their partners, and couldn’t have asked for a better place. We loved the design of the house, outdoor spaces, and pool area. There was plenty of room for all of us to gather, and there were many areas to be if anyone needed alone time. The kitchen is well equipped. The views from the house are stunning. There’s a cafe and grocery store within walking distance, and several restaurants nearby. We had a delicious meal at La Briciola just up the road from the house. Several beaches are only a short drive away. Stopping for gelato at Patisserie Pace became a ritual on our way home from the beach! There’s a comprehensive information binder that was very useful. Both Bruno and Michael were quick to respond when we had questions. We’re missing Volpaia already!

Amazing house and location
The view, the location and the well laid out house made this the perfect place to call home for a week. We loved being able to walk to a grocery story and fantastic restaurants. The numerous patios and pool allowed us space to relax together or on our own. We'd highly recommend this home to others!

Stunning villa, surroundings and location
First stay in Sardinia and we were so lucky to stay at Villa Volpaia. We are a family of 4 (incl. grown up daughter's boyfriends). We found the villa to be charming (on a level that is difficult to describe) with a lay-out of rooms that fit our family perfectly. (3 separate bedrooms with walk-in bathrooms). The lay-out of the villa allowed us to spend time together but also find a private spot when that was needed. The villa is truly unique. The architecture is very charming, and the interior decoration is full of charming details that continues to reveal itself during the stay. The villa contains everything you need when on holiday: Good tips for where to shop, buy groceries, which beach to visit, dining out (do try the pizzaria on the corner and the agriturismo). The list is long:-) In terms of what you need in the kitchen, you are all good to go - from coffee bean grinder to cooling box :-). So... the villa (and Sardinia) comes with our highest recommendation and we hope to be able to return one day. /charlotte

Great location with restaurants nearby. Michael, the owner, is amazing and incredibly helpful with useful tips. He went out of his way to assist me with ordering a birthday cake for my husband. Amazing views and thoughtful touches.
