Home description
Appartamento Bella Vista is located just a short walk from the many superb restaurants and bars of the quaint little fishing village , Porto San Paolo. With stunning views of the majestic Tavolara island , wake up each morning to the sight of foam crested waves, then take a stroll down to the pretty horse shoe shaped bay, with powdery white sand and translucent waters reminiscent of the caribbean. Despite the cosmopolitan atomosphere of this popular seaside village, it still appears to have been completely bypassed by the world of mass tourism.
For the golf enthusiasts amongst you the nearest golf course is less than a ten minute drive away, set next to the coast with panoramic views of the Costa Smeralda and surrounding islands. Porto San Paolo also boasts a large diving centre which is a ten minute walk from the apartment. If none of this appeals, why not take yourself off to the equestrian centre in the neighbouring town of San Teodoro, where pony trekking takes place daily next to world famous " La Cinta" beach . Here flamingoes,herons and wild ducks thrive.Alternatively, explore the glittering coastline and islands by hiring a speed boat from the local beach ... a day that will live in the memory for a long time to come !

The Sardinia region
It is almost impossible to illustrate with words just how beautiful and captivating this island is.Translucent blue waters fringed by powder white sand form a striking contrast to the luxuriant green vegetation everywhere. Despite being Italian, Sardinia has come under the control of every meditteranean power at one time including Romans, Phoenicians and Spaniards and this diverse history has given it a unique identity which is reflected in the local Sardinian cuisine. Sardinia is a culinary delight for almost every palate, with local wines to tempt even the most distinguished wine taster. With a superb climate and range of attractions Sardinia really does hold something for everyone. Wild horses,flamingoes and seals are all resident. For the historian in you, the Island does not disappoint - Roman ruins and grottos can be found in various places over the island set against dramatic mountainous backdrops.Once visited, Sardinia is never forgotten.
Costa Smeralda / Porto San Paolo area
A delightful harbour resort with quaint winding roads, bars and a number of excellent restaurants to suit every budget ranging from your basic pizzeria and spaghetti house, to the more sophisticated and adventurous fish restaurants that border the waters edge of this pretty little resort. Porto San Paolo comes alive at night with artisan shops opening to sell their locally crafted produce,whilst the nightly street market ( in high season) sells anything from handbags to paintings. By day play tennis, relax at the beach,go pony trekking,pay a visit to the local diving centre, try wine tasting at some of the local wine producing outlets, play golf on one of Europe's most breathtaking courses, hire a boat to explore the islands that are peppered along the sardinian coastline, or alternatively sit back and sip a glass of wine on one of the many guided tours. The possibilities are endless, although with scenery this beautiful it is sometimes quite satisfying to simply sit and watch the world go by.

Guestbook
Thank you for letting us stay at your beautiful apartment. We have stayed in many apartments over the years and I have to say that the standard of furnishing and decor in 'Bella Vista' is way superior to any that I have experienced. I loved waking up to the sight of Tavolara island and shall definitely be returning! Karen Billings, Kent.
The Holiday was fantastic in every way and the apartment was excellent and exceeded our high expectations.The beaches were as you had described. I have never seen such blue sea.Thank you for all the help you gave. Pamela Healey,Newport.
Absolute heaven ! I have just had the most perfect holiday in your apartment. The view of Tavolara is now my 'safe place' when I am stressed at work. We really hope to book the same two weeks in May next year , finances permitting. Thank you also for all your help. Sarah Baxter,Eastbourne
The views of Tavolara island are beautiful,we got up ridiculousy early several mornings to enjoy the stunning sunrises.The restaurant recommendations were very useful and we tried out the 3 closest to the apartment, all of which were lovely.Chikka was very helpful in organising several things for us and being on hand to answer any queries.All in all we had a great holiday and we look forward to the possibility of returning. Helen Faulkner, Barnstaple,N.Devon.
Hi Kate.I just wanted to drop you a line to say how much we enjoyed our holiday and how fabulous the apartment was. We could not have wished for a more perfect base from which to explore. The weather was absolutely gorgeous and by the sounds of it, we timed it perfectly considering the deluges in the UK! Jo Harris,Horfield Bristol.
Great location, friendly people and an apartment which I could relax in. Shall miss my morning stroll to the bakery and my early evening G&T on the balcony. The service received was second to none and we especially appreciated all the information you supplied about the area.Shame we had to come back. Derek Smith,Weston Super Mare.
Hi Kate.Thanks for the use of your apartment for our weeks holiday in Sardinia. We all had a wonderful time and did not want to come back home. The apartment and location in Porto San Paolo were superb.The changing colours of Tavolara Island throughout the day never failed to delight us.All in all we had a wonderful time and hope to return in the near future and would not hesitate to recommend your apartment to our family and friends. Gareth Edwards,Barry, Glamorgan.
