4 Bedrooms
Location and Surrounding Area
Nestled in one of Sardinia’s most sought-after areas, Villa Rafael offers an exceptional retreat just a few kilometres from the crystal-clear waters of the Tyrrhenian Sea. This stunning four-bedroom villa provides complete privacy and tranquillity, making it an ideal escape for those wishing to explore the diverse region, known for some of Northern Sardinia’s most spectacular beaches. Villa Rafael is only a short drive from Palau, a vibrant summer resort and the main gateway to the Maddalena Archipelago.
The villa is also conveniently close to Porto Cervo, the renowned village in Costa Smeralda, famed for its exclusive ambience. Porto Cervo features a charming pedestrianised centre known as the Piazzetta, and a labyrinth of narrow, hilly streets behind its expansive marina. This prestigious marina accommodates up to 650 yachts and includes a large yacht club, upscale shopping mall, and a well-equipped shipyard, creating a perfect blend of luxury and leisure.
Olbia, aptly named “happy,” is just a short distance away and greets visitors with the invigorating scent of Mediterranean scrub. This vibrant town not only offers a lively atmosphere but also provides an insightful glimpse into Sardinia's rich heritage, including traditional herdsmen culture and the opulent lifestyle of the Costa Smeralda. Its charming streets, historic sites, and vibrant local markets make Olbia a captivating gateway to the island’s diverse attractions and scenic beauty.
In less than an hour’s drive, you can reach Porto Rotondo, a popular Costa Smeralda destination and the island’s second largest marina. With its cobbled streets and vibrant piazza, Porto Rotondo is often likened to a smaller Venice, featuring exclusive boutiques and artists' workshops. The favourable natural conditions, well-equipped marinas, and prestigious yacht clubs make Costa Smeralda a sailing paradise, with rich underwater life for diving and snorkelling, and rugged countryside ideal for trekking and cycling.
