Our Villa Calicanto is something special. It is our secret little paradise on the beautiful island we live in, Sardinia: we would like it to be a special place for you, too. Welcome to a kind home with a green heart, a few steps from the bluest sea! Villa Calicanto is the first and only ecologically and sustainably built home rented in Sardinia, which we designed and lived in with so much love and care. As family we share some of our happiest memories there; with this spirit we open our beautiful home with an eco-conscious heart to like-minded (and like-hearted ;-) ) guests! You will rest in the magical light, calm and comfort of a luxurious house which respects you and the amazing Mediterranean environment around you: the nearby Cannesisa beach with its crystalline, turquoise water, the different greens of the scrub in the coast, the clean breeze coming from southern Sardinia. Our Villa SUD offers all the comforts of home in a intimate, fully furnished accommodation on the coast. It opens on the pool side: located on the right side of the complex, its veranda and balcony opens onto the pool, next to a 400 year old olive tree. With the other villas, it shares the pool, the garden and the gazebo, but it keeps its own independence and privacy. On the ground floor, the open living room/kitchen is fully equipped with a small fridge with mini-freezer, a microwave, 4 gas stoves and all the necessary utensils to cook (if you are an amateur chef you will recognize our special veggie knife which prevents oxidation!). A barbecue is available in the garden, do dine en plein air under the stars of Torre, and I can swear that at night it converts everyone in a seriously serial griller. On the upper floor you will find the two bedrooms (the first with a double bed and a balcony overlooking the pool, and the second, smaller one with two twin beds), each for two people maximum. Each floor has its own full bathroom with a comfortable shower. A further shower is next to the pool, to get ready to jump into the water! Our Villa is perfect for couples, groups of friends and families. We accommodate up to 4 adults (or two adults and two children) but it is possible to accommodate a 5th guest if s/he is a child under the age of 3: for them we have a dedicated baby cot and a high chair. Villa Calicanto is located in Torre delle Stelle, at about 35 minutes from Cagliari. Being on the coast gives you also the possibility to swim, surf, fish or simply read a book and get golden in some of the most beautiful shores in Sardinia (and in the world!) within a 15-30 minute drive; to explore the different facets of the urban life in Cagliari; to hike in the near Settefratelli Reserve; or indulge in the simple luxury of relaxing at home, in a place that nurturs your spirit and your body.
