960.146 €
“Member of Small Luxury Hotels of the World, direct access to the private beach from the ground-floor rooms.”
La Villa Del Re occupies a former Sardinian residence in Su Cannisoni, facing the Gulf of Cagliari. We sleep in 24 rooms spread between the main building and garden-side pavilions, some with terraces overlooking the sand. The interiors blend cerused wood furniture, white linen, terracotta tiles, Mediterranean light filtered through voiles. The pool is nestled in the pine forest, away from the beach. The restaurant serves contemporary Sardinian cuisine, local catch and Vermentino wines. Rates from 960 € per night, airport transfer included. International clientele, guaranteed calm outside July-August ✨
Who is it for?
Who we recommend it to
We recommend La Villa Del Re to couples in their thirties and beyond seeking a child-free seaside retreat, far from the family resorts of the Costa Smeralda. The address suits travellers who favour calm, local gastronomy and a beach reachable on foot over palace entertainment. Honeymoons and anniversaries find their place here, especially in May-June and September.
The building
Architecture and interiors
The neoclassical villa dates from the early 20th century, restored as a luxury hotel in the 2000s. Traditional Sardinian architecture: ochre façades, painted wooden shutters, Roman-tile roofs, garden-side arcades. Interiors are pared-back with terracotta floors, exposed beams, bespoke furniture in local wood. The annex pavilions echo the codes of the main villa, with ceiling heights between 3 and 3.5 metres.
At the table
Restaurants, bar, service
The main restaurant serves Mediterranean cuisine centred on Sardinian produce: grilled octopus, bottarga, Sardinian lamb, pecorino cheeses. The wine list focuses on local appellations, Vermentino and Cannonau to the fore. Continental breakfast served on the terrace facing the sea, room service available until 22h. No media-famous signature chef, yet a stable brigade working with the fishermen of Villasimius.

Location & access
Where the hotel sits in Sardinia
La Villa Del Re stands at Su Cannisoni, on the south-east coast of Sardinia, 45 minutes from Cagliari-Elmas airport. The village of Castiadas is a 10-minute drive, Villasimius 15 minutes for restaurants and shops. Cala Sinzias beach stretches three kilometres, white sand and turquoise water, little frequented out of season. The area is residential and seaside, with no nightlife, ideal for switching off.
