Porto San Paolo

The round tour starts in one of the most famous areas in Sardinia, the province of Olbia - Tempio. You'll spend the first 5 nights in a room in Hotel Don Diego, situated within a 5-minute drive of Porto San Paolo on the beautiful Costa Dorata. The hotel's panoramic pool is the perfect place to relax. One of the hotel's main features is the stunning view across the Tavolara island in front of the hotel, which is also called the Table Mountain of Sardinia.

Hotel Don Diego is a strategic base to explore the north-east and the Costa Smeralda. Created by Prince Karim Aga Khan IV in the 60s and 70s, Porto Cervo is the main centre of the renowned coastline. The Sardinian seaside resort is popular among the international and Italian jet set. In the small marina you can find a parade of luxurious yachts. The elite resides in one of the luxurious resorts, villas or hotels or visits the boutiques near the central square "La Piazzetta".

We also recommend driving to the peninsula of Capo Coda Cavallo. This stunning area near the lively San Teodoro consists of 7 white sandy beaches accompanied by crystal clear waters, the most famous of which is probably Brandinchi, which is also called "Tahiti". Our tip: rent a boat to explore the nature reserve of Tavolara or book a diving excursion at the local PADI diving school.

One of the other must sees in Olbia-Tempio is the archipelago of La Maddalena, which consists of more than 60 islands, of which La Maddalena, Caprera, Santo Stefano, Spargi, Budelli, Santa Maria and Razzoli are the biggest. From these islands only the main island La Maddalena is inhabited. The archipelago was designated a National Park, the Parco Nazionale Arcipelago di La Maddalena, in 1994. Many tourists visit the archipelago by boat to enjoy the beautiful rock formations, nature, sea, bays and beaches. A ferry can bring you from Palau to La Maddalena in a mere 20 minutes. One of the principal tourist sights of the islands is Casa Garibaldi on the island of Caprera, where the Italian hero Giuseppe Garibaldi spent the last 25 years of his life until he died in 1882. Caprera is connected to La Maddalena by a long causeway and bridge.
Should you like to visit more islands than just La Maddalena and Caprera, moor in the smallest bays and swim in crystal-clear waters, we recommend booking our excursion with the Lady Luna, which will bring you to the most beautiful spots of this paradise-like archipelago, also known as the European Caribbean. With a bit of luck you can spot dolphins on the way!

From Olbia it’s less than half an hour to Arzachena, renowned for its archaeological sites. The area of this municipality stretches for over 228 square metres and has a beautiful coastline with many bays and beaches and spectacular rock formations. The wind has sculpted the rocks into beautiful shapes, the most famous of which is the “Roccia dell’Orso” in Palau, which with a bit of fantasy resembles a bear.

Villasimius (South Sardinia)

The second stage of this tour takes you to Villasimius in the beautiful south of Sardinia. A beloved village on Sardinia’s south-eastern coast, surrounded by the Monte Sette Fratelli massif and countless bays with white sandy beaches and a turquoise sea. The area is perfectly suited for travellers wanting to both relax and explore the sights in the area. A room has been reserved in the intimate hotel Cala Caterina for the next 5 nights.

The beautiful beaches of Giunco, Punta Molentis and Porto Giunco are definitely worth a visit. Book a boat trip or rent a boat to explore the stunning coastline in a unique way. If you want to learn more about the area, we recommend visiting the Archaeological Museum in Via Frau, during the high season opened from Tuesday through Sunday. Capo Carbonara is one of Villasimius’ absolute highlights. From here you can enjoy the spectacular view across the small islands Isola dei Cavalli and Isola di Serpentara. The area, a protected nature reserve since 2000, is a true paradise for snorkelers and divers.

Sardinia’s capital Cagliari is located not too far from Villasimius. The coastal road leading to the city founded by the Phoenicians is unique. The lively city itself, which in Roman times was called “Carales”, is filled with cosy piazzas, narrow streets, boutiques and historic buildings. The oldest part of the town, the Castello, accessible via one of 2 gates (the San Pancrazio gate or the Porta dei Leoni) is located against a steep height, surrounded by the old city walls. The San Remy bastion offers a spectacular view across the marina, the beach and the surrounding villages. The “Cittadella dei Musei”, which used to be a repertory of arms, nowadays houses an archaeological museum, the museum of ethnology, a Pinacoteca and the National Museum.

Alghero

The final stop of this luxurious tour along the dreamy beaches of Sardinia is Alghero, a lively village on the north-west coast. You could take the most direct route, but we recommend travelling via Bosa, for this unique coastal road offers spectacular views and impressives cliffs. Don't forget to bring your camera!

The last 5 nights you will spend in Punta Negra, a 4-star hotel with sea view which has a sandy beach in front and is also provided with a beautiful pool. The hotel is located within a 10-minute drive of Alghero, a cosy Catalan town which is also known als "Barceloneta", or small Barcelona. Nowadays the bilingual Aragonese still speak a Catalan dialect. In this province there are numerous beautiful beaches, such as Maria Pia, Le Bombarde and Spiaggia del Lazzaretto.

The old town of Alghero consists of a maze of narrow cobbled alleys, decorated with laundry hanging out to dry on drying racks and makeshift clothes lines tied from balcony to balcony. In the city centre you can enjoy a stroll along the various piazzas with restaurants, bars, cafes and ice cream parlours or relax on the shaded terraces cooled by a fresh sea breeze. At night, as the sun sets behind cape Capo Caccia, the city is bathed in a beautiful orange light. At this time of night we recommend taking a walk along the boulevard and the harbour to one of Alghero’s restaurants to enjoy the delicious seafood dishes. Don’t forget to try the local specialty, "Aragosta alla Catalana" (lobster)!

One of Sardinia’s highlights near Alghero is Neptune’s Grotto (“Grotte di Nettuno”), a stalactite cave on the tip of the peninsula of Capo Caccia whose entrance lies only around a metre above sea level. The 204-metre-high cliffs and caves are therefore reached by boat during a trip of approximately 45 minutes departing from the port of Alghero. Alternatively, after a scenic route by car, you can descend the 654-step stairway cut into the cliff called “escala del cabirol” (goat’s steps) to visit the grotto.

One of the symbols of Sardinia are the nuraghe, ancient megalithic edifices developed by the nuragic civilisation that inhabited the island from about 1500 BC onwards. Their villages were built around round tower-fortresses which date back to the Bronze Age. The sturdy structures, consisting of layers of basalt blocks, stand only by virtue of the weight of their stones. We recommend visiting the Nuraghe di Palmavera near Alghero, founded around the 14th century BC and renovated in 1963.

When staying in Alghero the beautiful beaches in Stintino, the Asinara National Park and the historic villages of Bosa and Castelsardo are easily reached as well. Would you like to explore the versatile west coast by (sailing) boat? Book our sailing excursion with the Andrea Jensen!

Hotel Don Diego****

Overlooking the island of Tavolara, Hotel Don Diego is located in a stunning bay, just a few metres from the beach. During your stay in this charming hotel on the north-east coast of Sardinia you'll be able to relax completely in the pool with panoramic view or on the private beach.

Hotel Cala Caterina****

Hotel Cala Caterina, a wonderful retreat in the sunny south of Sardinia. Breathtaking views of the sea, shady pine forests, a sandy and rocky bay on your doorstep. After a wonderful day at the beach, complete the day with relaxation in the wellness area or you can take a seat in the good restaurant of Cala Caterina to end the day gastronomically with live piano music in the background. In short, a nice place for a relaxing stay or romantic honeymoon on the island.
