I Corbezzoli

Cala di Volpe, Sardinia

Pure Costa Smeralda style

11 Guests

6 Bedrooms

5 Bathrooms

Cocooned by mature, wrap-around Mediterranean gardens and just a gentle stroll from the golden sands of La Celvia beach, I Corbezzoli was designed by Savin Couëlle, the celebrated architect who was instrumental in the creation of the "Costa Smeralda aesthetic" back in the 1960s, when the Aga Khan first put the area on the global map. Combining traditional artisan craftsmanship, local materials, airy interiors, and a love of al fresco living, the villa is a summery ode to the breathtaking natural beauty that surrounds it.

The Area

I Corbezzoli is located in Capriccioli, one of northeastern Sardinia's most exclusive enclaves, just 100m from the idyllic golden sands and transparent waters of La Celvia beach.

Other beaches within easy walking distance include the three bays of Capriccioli. Within a quick drive, meanwhile, are the idyllic stretches of sand at Spiaggia del Principe (aka Poltu Di Li Cogghj), Li Itriceddi and Liscia Ruja.

A few kilometres to the north and south of I Corbezzoli are the glamorous seafront resorts of Porto Cervo (the original, 1960s centre of sophisticated international tourism on the Costa Smeralda) and upmarket Porto Rotondo.

Just over 25km to the south is the city of Olbia, which is well worth a visit or two during your stay. As well as a good selection of shops, restaurants, bars and cafés, there are some fine buildings, Romanesque and baroque churches, and a variety of archaeological sites that testify to its history as a Nuragic, Phoenician and Greek settlement.

The Costa Smeralda, which runs up the northeast coast of Sardinia, and La Maddalena, an archipelago off the island's northern tip, are a delight to discover, not least for the breathtaking natural beauty of their numerous, often unspoilt, white and pink-hued beaches. Taking a boat trip around the islands is a must, as you'll be able to explore deserted coves, dive into gin-clear waters, and stop off for lunch at waterfront restaurants.

Inland there's plenty to see too, and getting off the beaten track is easy to do. There are walking and cycling trails, quiet little villages, hills and mountains, archaeological sites, and buzzing small towns, such as San Pantaleo, which mixes Sardinian cultural and architectural traditions with chic restaurants and bars and an arty scene.
