The apartment is completely independent and is part of a bright, nice detached house with garden all around. In front of the hose and of your apartment there is a pretty pine wood. We are close on foot to the sea but also to some beautiful wild mountains, where much free climbing, trekking, hiking and more can be enjoyed. Km.5 away from your apartment there is an extraordinary awe-inspiring pre-historic archaeological area, as well, overlooking the whole coast, the Gulf of Orosei. This place is named Nuraghe Mannu and I often personally work there as a guide when I am not out hiking with tourists. You have your private part of the garden, with a large covered veranda with table, seats, sundeck-chairs, hammock, sun-umbrella and the large terrace where you can read, relax, play, eat out. Moreover, there is a shared part of the garden, you can use, with a comfortable and pleasant outdoor shower and a barbecue area.

Guest comments
Please see the following, however, we could well provide you with lots of testimonials and feedback that we have been receiving from our guests during recent times and years. Many of them from different countries you will find in your apartment.
"My friend and I travelled to Cala Gonone in Sardinia in June and were welcomed by Salvatore, who owns the apartment. He was so helpful and kind, recommending the better restaurants and beaches. He also has a great knowledge of local climbing areas which was sadly wasted on us as we were there for exploring the beaches. The apartment itself was lovely, traditionally decorated with everything you need. There are some beautiful beaches nearby. The owner speaks English very well."
"We found that the apartment and local amenities serviced all our needs. The rooms were a good size and various sleeping arrangements were possible"
"The host family is so nice. The rooms are spacious and clean and the veranda is a lovely place to spend your time.
House swap
House swap considered, but maybe starting from november 2011 till spring 12 , for 2 adults and a small baby. It should be a fairly confortable though not at all luxurious self catering accomodation, possibly with some heating, and in Europe to start with.
Owner profile
About the owner
I was born here in Dorgali-Cala Gonone (Sardinia), where I have been most of my life.
However, I have spent several years in different foreign countries, especially in Europe and in Latin America, working, studying languages, learning about different cultures, customs, traditions.
Since many years I have finally been back in my homeland, in my island, Sardinia, where I live with my family.
I work as a tour guide mostly locally, doing hiking, trekking and archaeological tours. With my family we can therefore and with much pleasure help you with some useful tips of different sorts if you wish to, to enable you to get more of our hometown and surroundings, and thus make the most of your stay.
Why the owner chose an apartment in this location
As it often happens here in Sardinia, I built myself most of my house and the apartment we rent out to guests; I was helped by father in doing that, which is also quite usual here; we are used to working hard, that is.
I like this area, I guess basically because it is the place I was born in, my roots are here,in Dorgali-Cala Gonone. Moreover, I believe Sardinia is still a very interesting, varied and uncommon place, as well, and Cala Gonone is an exiting starting point. Here in Cala Gonone you can meet many interesting people from different countries, it is hardly ever too crowded, there is a lot of wild nature around, very close to town: a mixture of sea, beaches, small bays, hills, mountains, secluded sites by the sea and a bit further inland, caves, prehistoric sites, and more.
Unique benefits of the property
Our property is close to the sea, to the beaches, and to the countryside. There is space and nature around our house; not to mention our private garden with balconies and verandas, barbeque place, outdoor shower connected with solar pannel. We are close to all main services. You could receive directly from us useful information and tips about many things of different sorts that you can do here, in case you cannot go to the tourist office. We can also help you if needed to organize trekking trips, boat trips, hire things such as a kayak, a bike, etc..And last but not least, if you wish to, you have with us the possibility of contact with local people, thus getting information about our traditions, local customs, local cuisine, place where to have a good and cheap meal, such as farmhouses.
