Villa Allegra, Olbia, Sardinia

• 5 bedrooms
• Breath-taking views over the secluded bay
• Only 20 min from Olbia
• Close to beach

From Villa Allegra's terraces the view is so stunning, one could remain there a long time just to admire it.

When the sun rises, dawn's soft pink veil touches the sea wrapping around gardens. At night the sky is so thick with stars they almost reflect in the water merging with the lights of the yachts moored for the night.

So quiet and concealed by Mediterranean woods, only few know this place, however only 20 minutes drive from Olbia the major airport in Northern Sardinia.

The sea is the real protagonist, its transparent emerald water so unblemished softly touching the pearl white shores of the local beach, which can be reached within a few minutes walk from Villa Allegra.

Built with indigenous granite stones the villas camouflage within the indigenous nature merging within. Villa Allegra, with rounded roofs, like traditional shepherd's dwellings. Oak beams cover the ceiling, whilst the shades of the terraces are made of woven reefs, the traditional Sardinian way. Sardinia here is beautiful, silent, traditional. Only the sea, wild olive and juniper trees, sand and a light sea breeze.

The villa sits on the hilly position the sea below.

• It has a 2,000m² garden thickly covered with indigenous plants aloe vera, flowers and many fig trees.
• There are 2 large patios one facing the sea and one by the kitchen this has been enclosed by a wall to protect from the wind and for privacy.
• Upstairs are 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms (these have been refurbished).
• The bedrooms have warm terracotta floors and tall rounded ceiling covered with chestnut beams. They lead out onto the terrace which goes all around the first floor.
• The central terrace literally faces the whole bay, with the view of Tavolara island towering above the emerald shades of the sea, dotted with yachts.
• Living room is open plan with a charming cone shaped fire place and white painted. Dark terracotta floors throughout and white washed walls.
• The living room opens onto the terrace and a few steps lead down the garden. The way to the beach is a short walk, though a few gardens from the neighboring villas.

Style, shapes and colors and the use of local materials give this charming villa an unmistakable Mediterranean feel.

An excellent restaurant 5 min walk away has not only great food but a position second to none. There is also a beach bar open from 7,00 until midnight.
