In a prestigious setting near Porto Rotondo, Villa Rena Bianca rises from the granite and Mediterranean maquis like a vision. Here, nature and 20th - century architecture move in harmony, with sweeping views that stretch across the Marina di Portisco, Cala di Volpe Bay and the glistening curve of Marinella Beach. Sunlight pours into the bright interiors through picture - book windows, casting soft shadows across hand - painted walls and intricate Sardinian motifs, each crafted in homage to the island’s rich heritage.
The villa’s heart lies in its light - filled living and dining space with artwork and beautiful tiles on the wall, large windows and traditional Sardinian furnishings creating a calming and characterful ambience. A professional - grade kitchen sits discreetly to the side, designed with entertaining in mind.
Villa Rena Bianca’s nine bedrooms are scattered across the main house and gardens, offering a sense of discovery. The master double is a beautiful bedroom with a walk - in wardrobe, private terrace and spa - like bathroom complete with hydromassage bath. The two French - style en suite bedrooms are simple and charming, whilst the romantic white suite, with double terraces and sea views, captures the essence of the island, just a few steps from the pool. Across the garden level, five colour - themed bedrooms each offer independent entrances, en suite bathrooms, air - conditioning.
Outside beside the granite rocks, Villa Rena Bianca continues to impress. A sculpted pool level brings together a wellness suite with sauna and an inviting covered terrace for al - fresco dining. A summer kitchen and barbecue area set the scene for slow summer evenings, while the hydromassage tub adds a final indulgent touch.
Just a few minutes from the villa, the glamour of Porto Rotondo awaits. This chic harbour town blends fine dining and designer boutiques with laid - back charm. Spend mornings exploring its elegant piazzas or cruising the coastline, before returning to the stillness of Villa Rena Bianca. Away from the bustle of Porto Rotondo, discover the idyllic beaches of Spiaggia di Marinella and Ira, both within a short drive.
For those seeking refinement, privacy and a deep connection with Sardinia’s natural beauty, Villa Rena Bianca offers a beautiful setting close to one of one of the island’s most coveted destinations.
On the prestigious northeastern coast of Sardinia, Villa Rena Bianca enjoys a coveted position on a hillside just moments from the glamorous seaside village of Porto Rotondo. Renowned for its elegant marina, designer boutiques and vibrant piazzas, Porto Rotondo is the beating heart of this sun - soaked enclave, offering refined dining, upscale shopping and a taste of La Dolce Vita .
Beach lovers are spoilt for choice, with Spiaggia di Marinella (2.3km) and Spiaggia di Ira (3km) both within easy reach. These white - sand stretches are lapped by impossibly clear turquoise waters and offer an idyllic setting for lazy days beneath the Sardinian sun. At Marinella, try snorkelling and windsurfing or simply sit back and enjoy lunch at one of the summer beach clubs.
For a day of exploration, head a little further towards Golfo Aranci, where a string of postcard - perfect beaches lines the rugged coast. With its laid - back fishing village atmosphere, crystal - clear bays and opportunities for snorkelling or boat excursions, it’s the perfect contrast to the more polished Porto Rotondo. Alternatively, venture up the coast to Porto Cervo, the crown jewel of the Costa Smeralda. Just 25km from the villa, it’s famed for its exclusive harbour, designer stores, and vibrant nightlife.
Keen golfers can tee off at the prestigious Pevero Golf Club, only 22km away, where panoramic views of the Mediterranean meet impeccably manicured greens. And for those craving a cultural interlude, a day trip to Olbia (15km) offers a glimpse into Sardinia’s rich history, with ancient ruins, charming piazzas and excellent regional cuisine.
