Why visit Calasetta:

The territory of Calasetta offers numerous beaches of outstanding beauty. The coast of Calasetta is steep and rocky, sandy and low in the west to the north east. The coastline has suffered three major fractures that correspond to three beautiful beaches: Spiaggia Grande, Salina and Sottotorre. Of incomparable beauty the presence of a rocky bastion in the west that extends up to depths of 10 m and contributing to the creation of caves and rocks to great effect. One of the most striking examples of the work of the Sea is undoubtedly 'The nest of sparrows', a couple of rocks emerging from the sea where many birds take refuge.

Calasetta is very famous for its distinctive urban tower which appears frequently in the images of the country. Built before the foundation of the town, around 1737, was built by the Savoy in defense of the canal between S. Antioco and the island of San Pietro. The main function of the tower was to spot the Saracen vessels.

Among the typical traditions of this country, which claims a strong voice its Tabarkan origins and that still speak fluently the language of Tabarka, there are some feasts of great charm. One of these is the feast of St. John the Baptist, which alternates rites of pagan rituals and sacred that involves the whole population in dancing and singing in the night illuminated by bonfires.

Not to be missed is the typical cuisine of Calasetta. In every dish combines a mixture of genres in which the culinary dishes originating in Liguria clashes and meet with contributions from the north - African, Sicilian and Sardinian tradition. They offers recipes characterized by a riot of fresh tuna that joins chickpea porridge and fish soups.

When visiting Calasetta you can not help but to reserve visit to the Museum of Contemporary Art 'Ermanno Leinardi', which houses a vast collection of works by contemporary painters, and Galleria Mangiabarche recently open where international artists takes residencies throughout the year.

Town: Italy, Sulcis Calasetta

The municipal area is the northern part of the Island of Sant'Antioco, is characterized by low hills with steep coasts, cliffs to the west, while to the east the coast is low and characterized by a shallow sea gulf.

The town is known as the 'white' for the prevailing color of the houses. The town stands on a hill which descends towards the harbor, giving the country a similar shape to a polygon. The center seen from \ 'suggests a high \' idea of ??extreme rigor and regularity for the \ 'order of its straight streets that intersect forming an orthogonal grid.

Great Holiday

The property met our needs and we had a restful, relaxing holiday. It's useful to bring your own pool towels. Margherita was a great host and effectively communicated with us. She met us at the property when we arrived, gave us tips about where to eat & places to visit.

Great holiday in quiet surroundings

We rented this place for a week to have a relaxing holiday and it met our needs in every way. The house is great with sleeping up to 6 people. Our boys of 12 and 14 especially enjoyed the bedroom with bathroom on the 2nd floor and private entrance. The outdoor area and the pool are very good. For Scandinavian standards, the house is relatively easy equipped, but meets the needs of a holiday. The surroundings are beautiful with a short distance to amazing beaches and swimming areas on the cliffs. Calasetta is a quiet town in June, but can offer good restaurant experiences. Maria took us in a great way late at night and we thank her for letting us rent this house

Exceptionally clean Villa with lovely pool and garden

We enjoyed a wonderful week in Margerita’s villa. She was extremely attentive in terms of check in and had the property ready for us very early which was kind. She also responded speedily to a couple of questions we had. The pool is heaven and very large for the property size and the kitchen and living areas were perfectly functional. The terrace is a happy place to sit under shade and there are some stunning beaches within a short drive, both sandy and Star Wars like, the latter of which we loved. The Villa was spotless and there was a cold beer was in the fridge to welcome us. Our teen enjoyed the top floor room where the bathroom was entirely appropriate for her needs. Thank you for a wonderful, homely stay.

Wunderschönes, ruhig gelegenes Häuschen

Die zwei Wochen in Calasetta waren sehr erholsam. In Maria's Häuschen ist es sehr ruhig und es gibt einen schönen Garten und eine schattige Terrasse. Es ist alles da was man braucht. Und der große Pool ist zum Erfrischen natürlich top. Maria ist eine tolle Gastgeberin und kümmert sich super um ihre Gäste. Man wird persönlich empfangen und es wird alles erklärt und man bekommt auch gleich Tipps für Strände und Unternehmungen, sowie Einkaufsmöglichkeiten .

Idéale pour découper la Sardaigne du dud

Une belle propriété à 5 mn en voiture de Calasetta. Le parc est très bien entretenu et la piscine est superbe. La terrasse est magnifique. La maison est spacieuse et fonctionnelle mais il manque un lave vaisselle et un lave linge. Ce serait un plus. A l'étage, la chambre indépendante est doté d'une salle de bain qui dispose d'une douche minuscule. C'est dommage. Malgré un prix de location de 2 400 €, il faut rajouter la consommation d'électricité... Malgré ces remarques, une bonne semaine de vacances dans une belle région.

Traumhafte 2 Wochen in Calasetta

Wir hatten wunderbare und zwei sehr erholsame Wochen in Calasetta. Die Unterkunft ist sehr sauber und ruhig gelegen, das haben wir sehr genossen. Das komplette Grundstück war sehr gepflegt. Die Kommunikation mit Maria war 1A, sie ist eine tolle Gastgeberin! Man benötigt zwar ein Auto aber das hatten wir sowieso. Supermärkte, Strände und Restaurants sind in der direkten Umgebung. Nach Cagliari sind es 1h20min mit dem Auto. Absolut empfehlenswert wenn man einfach mal runterkommen möchte!

Schönes Haus mit wunderbarem Garten und gepflegtem Pool, um außerhalb zu entspannen

Wer die Ruhe außerhalb inmitten der Natur genießen möchte - ca. 5 Minuten benötigt man mit dem Auto nach Calasetta - ist hier genau richtig. Boule-Bahn und wunderschöner Pool bieten Abwechslung, die überdachte Außenterrasse Schutz vor Sonne oder Regen. Eine Treppe führt nach oben in ein separates Zimmer mit 2 Betten und Bad /Dusche, was je nach Nutzung / Personen sehr praktisch ist. Im unteren Bereich ist Platz für 4 Personen. Da wir mit größerer Verspätung ankamen, haben wir uns sehr über die unproblematische Übergabe mit Maria zu später Stunde gefreut. Danke noch einmal. Sehr gute Kommunikation, gerne wieder.

A little tired and 19th century sewage system.

Very basic, not enough equipment for six guests and barely adequate for four. The pool however was excellent.

Purtroppo alcuni ospiti non leggono tutte le informazioni relative alla casa e alle attrezzature presenti. Sinceramente non riesco a capire cosa lamentino questi clienti in particolare, dato che durante il soggiorno tutto pareva andare bene. Quando si affitta una casa, specie in campagna, e si hanno speciali esigenze è sempre meglio contattare il proprietario. Per quanto riguarda il sewage system credo i clienti dovrebbero viaggiare un po' di più, oppure andare in albergo.

Vacanza relax alla scoperta di una Sardegna unica

Siamo appena tornati dalla bella isola di sant’Antioco, angolo incontaminato nel mare di Sardegna: meravigliosa. Bella anche la villetta di Margherita, ospite gentilissima e disponibile, che ci ha fornito consigli turistici e curiosità sulle erbe medicinali. La casa ben accessoriata con aria condizionata e il giardino curato con la piscina hanno contribuito a rendere questa vacanza indimenticabile. Una piacevole sorpresa é stato trovare un campo per le bocce, divertente e fuori dal comune. Il giardino recintato regala privacy e tranquillità anche per il nostro cane libero di gironzolare. La grande ombreggiata veranda é l’ideale per mangiare al fresco godendosi la vista con perfino un angolo di mare . Penso che ci torneremo!

Splendide Maison, mais malheureusement mal équipée

La maison est splendide, le jardin est d'une beauté et d'une tranquillité impressionnante. La piscine nous a conquis par sa taille, sa propreté et sa chaleur. Cependant, la maison ne dispose pas de wifi, de machine à laver, de toaster ou encore de lave vaisselle; la salle de bain de l'appartement à l'étage est peu fonctionnelle, et il faudra prévoir de quoi éponger si vous désirez prendre votre douche là.En conclusion, la maison en elle-même est très bien et très propre, le jardin est très tranquille ( route passante à côté mais on s'y habitue), mais l'équipement faire clairement défaut.

Ringrazio per i complimenti, sono tuttavia stupita del fatto che gli ospiti siano sorpresi della mancanza delle attrezzature menzionate. Consiglio sempre infatti di leggere attentamente la descrizione presente sul sito che riporta correttamente cosa è a disposizione degli ospiti e cosa non è presente. Spero che, nonostante la mancanza del wi fi e le altre cose sottolineate abbiano trascorso una buona vacanza presso la Villa Paolina che sarà sicuramente felice di accoglierli nuovamente.

Davvero incantevole

La casa è in una zona tranquilla, è ideale per chi vuole passare una vacanza all'insegna del relax... è completamente indipendente e recintata, per chi come noi ama la privacy! All'esterno c'è un giardino meraviglioso, pieno di piante e fiori e una piscina molto grande circondata da un pratino all'inglese. La proprietaria è gentile e disponibile e al tempo stesso riservata. Consigliamo di provare questo alloggio, noi abbiamo passato due settimane molto piacevoli.

Ein traumhafter Urlaub

Wir, eine Familie mit 2 Söhnen im Alter von 8 und 10 Jahren, haben 2 wunderschöne Wochen in der Villa verbracht. Alles ist wirklich so schön, wie auf den Fotos zu sehen. Die große schattige Terrasse, der herrlich bepflanzte Garten mit viel Platz zum Liegen und Spielen. Und der große Pool mit Sprungbrett und Tauchtiefe war für unsere Kinder und auch für uns ein echtes Highlight. Unzählige Stunden haben wir darin verbracht. Die Ursprünglichkeit der kleinen Insel, die Nähe zum Hafen, wo man ein Boot mieten kann, und die tägliche Möglichkeit, frisches Obst, Gemüse und Fisch zu kaufen, runden die typische Atmosphäre ab, in der man sich nur wohl fühlen kann. Cara Maria, cara Margharita, mille grazie per tutti, cordiali saluti di Andreas, Aggi, Tom, Finn
