Description Feels Like Paradise: Altura

If you want to feel like you’ve stepped into the Garden of Eden, this villa’s for you. This dreamy home has three terraces with alfresco dining tables and stunning views – not to mention the private pool. The lush gardens are full of olive trees, myrtle bushes and prickly pears, with plenty of cosy corners for romantic moments away from the group. The interiors are a little rustic, but let's face it, you're not travelling to Sardinia to sit inside. The best part is the remarkable location on an exclusive peninsula that looks out over the Maddalena archipelago. Stroll to the beach in minutes, or better yet, head out by boat.

Home truths:
*This host only allows Saturday - Saturday booking between June - September.
*There are stairs to climb here, so this home may not be suitable for those with reduced mobility, or for young children.
*We recommend hiring a car if you want to see more of the surrounding area – there’s free parking here.
*Your host can provide a cot and high chair for little ones.
*Bedroom five has a double and a single bed – we think this room is best suited to children sharing.
*We think some of the areas of this home could benefit from an update. In particular, some of the furniture looks a little tired.
