Villa Nuraghe

Villa Nuraghe is a set of crisp white volumes on a green Sardinian hillside, with a long pool running out toward the sea on the horizon. It's pure, modern architecture, softened by the wild scrub that grows right up to its walls.

Inside, walls of glass fill every room with sky. The living area is wide and pale, with a deep grey sectional, a concrete fireplace and a playful red Mickey sculpture. Diners sit on black tulip chairs under a bold pop portrait, or at a long rustic table by a second fire, and the black kitchen island looks straight out to the covered terrace. For a luxury villa rental in Sardinia with real architectural character, it's hard to beat.

Bedrooms keep the same clean palette: low black beds, mustard or red throws, oak panelling and glass doors opening onto terraces. Bathrooms pair black floating vanities with grey marble showers.

Outside, the pool deck has loungers under a large umbrella, bean bags by the water and a shaded lounge with tree-stump stools. From the glass-railed terraces, the view rolls over green valleys and a fairway toward distant mountains and the sea. Villa Nuraghe suits design lovers, families and friends who want a sunny base on one of the most beautiful islands in Italy.
