Go Porto Cervo


Porto Cervo is a curious, artificial vision of Mediterranean beauty surrounded by magnificent coastal scenery


is on privacy and seclusion; guests intent on not being seen hole up and order from room service, but for those feeling more sociable there are two private beaches and a clubhouse with infinity pool (the first in the world), bar and several restaurants looking out to sea. €€€€€ | www.marriott.com


STAY


HOTEL CALA DI VOLPE This place has been a magnet for A-listers since the 1960s. A cluster of pastel-hued fishermen’s houses with turrets, arches and porticoes built on the water’s edge, it has its own private marina. Inside, the look is cool, Sardinian rustic-chic with design details from local artisans, but that belies a serious level of luxury. There’s a brand-new Shiseido spa, a huge saltwater pool and the sleek Cala Beach Club, a five-minute shuttle boat-hop away. Eating and drinking options include the Barbecue restaurant, popular with celebrities who roll up by boat and jump ashore for a lunch of fishy fregola. €€€€€ | www.marriott.com


PITRIZZA Located just up the coast from Porto Cervo, this discreet, club-like crash-pad has rooms in stone-hewed cottages and villas with pools scattered among rocks and flowering gardens on its own little promontory. Part of The Luxury Collection, the emphasis here

VILLA CAROLA Effortlessly charming with a selection of private rooms or luxury apartments with panoramic views above the port. A wonderful beach is a short ten minute stroll away. There is no pool, but the garden areas are just sublime. A popular stop for golf enthusiasts looking to get away from the coastal regions. €€€ | www.relaisvillacarola.it


PETRA SEGRETA This 25-room hideaway is set in macchia- clad hills and surrounded by glorious unspoilt nature, miles away from the coastal madness. The hotel’s rooms, which are decorated in earthy tones, are in long, low stone huts in the gardens, and if you splash out for one of the sumptuous suites you’ll be able to take a dip in your very own private pool. There’s a Balinese hut for massages, an open-air gym and a wonderful spa. The restaurant serves up dishes such as citrusy scorpion-fish risotto, and grilled lobster with ingredients from the owner’s farm. €€€ | www.petrasegretaresort.com


ROMAZZINO This glamorous escape from The Luxury Collection occupies a series of low-lying white-washed, terracotta-roofed buildings set in bougainvillaea-filled gardens just back from one of the longest beaches in the area. White-washed public spaces and rooms are brightened by locally woven textiles and tones of sunny Mediterranean colour. Some bedrooms are housed in the main building while others are in a series of splendid stand-alone villas with pools. There’s an open-air gym to work off all that food and a sleek Clarins spa. Plus, if you’re feeling a little sporty or need to keep the kids entertained there are watersports and tennis courts available. Families are well catered for here. €€€€ | www.marriott.com
