To The Sea & Back

To The Sea & Back: Sardinia

Sweeping sea and mountain views take centre stage at this apartment in the authentic port town of Olbia. Set just moment's from the seafront promenade for sunset strolls, and with the historic centre's wine bars and restaurant-lined plaza just a short walk away – the location is bang-on. Fancy a beach day? There are miles of uncrowded sandy coves just a short drive up the coast. Part of a new-build apartment building, the home's pared-back design may feel a little characterless for some. It's also worth noting there's no kitchen or living room facilities here. However, that sea-facing balcony helps to make up for that.

Home truths:
*Your host owns multiple apartments in this building, so the exact view and furnishings may vary slightly from the photos. *There's no kitchen here, so this home might not be the best option for everyone. That said, you'll find some of the area's best restaurants close by, and there is a coffee pod machine and a small fridge for rustling up drinks. *This home is located within an apartment building with a shared entrance. Expect to bump into other guests during your stay. *This home was purpose-built for rentals, so it's not the most soulful or charming space. *Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some road noise throughout your stay.
