Authentic villa close to the small square of Porto Rafael, Palau

In a reserved position but with easy access to the renowned small square of Porto Rafael, we offer for sale an authentic detached villa, immersed in the quietness of the hills, the rocks sculpted by the wind and embraced by a Mediterranean garden of 1,200 sqm.

Time-honoured rounded architecture

The villa is inspired by the soft and harmonious language of the Busiri Vici style, with rounded forms, white walls and fluid lines, typical of the architectural evolution of the Costa Smeralda™ in the 1960s and 1970s. A timeless design that blends elegance and authenticity, where every corner is designed to dialogue with the surrounding nature. The two units that make up the property are connected by a large courtyard in local stone, with shaded pergolas and relaxation areas set among the rocks.

Interiors that tell of Sardinia: sea blue and living wood

In the main building, the living room welcomes with warmth and brightness: the light-coloured walls and the blue-glazed Cera Sarda floor blend in a harmony that recalls the reflections of the sea. The kitchen, reserved and functional, is tiled with handcrafted tiles in earthy colours and has a masonry top. A graceful arched opening leads to a small space to be used as a pantry or small service area.

The master bedroom is a small masterpiece of local art: custom-made furniture made by Sardinian master craftsmen, carved wooden headboards, hand-crafted fixtures and details that create an intimate and authentic atmosphere. A bathroom in shades of blue completes the ambience, with refined finishes and a shower cubicle.

Hospitality and privacy in the second independent unit

A local stone walkway leads to the second unit of the villa, completely independent, where the sleeping area is developed, consisting of three elegant bedrooms, each with en suite bathroom. This environment, a natural extension of the main building, is designed to offer high-level hospitality, with true private suites, refined and equipped with every comfort. Finally, a staircase in shades of the sea leads to two panoramic terraces.

A short distance from PortoRafael's private marina

Less than a five-minute walk away, Porto Rafael's private marina offers direct access to the sea, perfect for those who own a boat or like to experience the sea every day. A rare luxury, set in one of the most exclusive corners of North Sardinia.

A secret corner between rocks and crystal-clear sea

Living in Porto Rafael means choosing an authentic experience, far from mass tourism, in a place where organic architecture, unspoilt nature and absolute discretion blend in perfect balance. Founded in the 1960s by Count Rafael Neville, a Spanish aristocrat, artist and visionary, Porto Rafael was born as a refuge for free spirits and lovers of silent beauty. He said: “Porto Rafael is not a place to build, but to respect” - and to this day, this philosophy permeates every corner of the village.

Here one breathes a sophisticated yet informal lifestyle of sunsets over the sea, walks among the wind-sculpted granite and encounters in the square between art, design and culture. Palau, the La Maddalena Archipelago and the Costa Smeralda™ are within easy reach, making the villa not only an exclusive retreat, but also a strategic base in the heart of northern Sardinia, perfect for those who wish to experience the island with authenticity, elegance and freedom.
