Beng, United Kindom

Francesca’s place is a fantastic find, a charming house with character, spacious bedrooms, luscious garden and that beautiful panoramic view of the sea that we never get tired of looking and enjoying its crystal clear water with white sandy beach. Although sun is shining the wind is a bit nippy. We felt very much at home since arriving. The garden bedroom is brilliant but internet/wifi connection is very poor. So out with our books and board games! The shower outside in the garden is definitely a welcome change but can’t help feeling conscious from would be prying eyes - there was none! We could do with a bigger kitchen to prep our food but it is well equipped. Overall it has been a very enjoyable stay and my family and I will definitely come back to this place. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We loved our stay here and wish we booked it for longer! What an incredible view and absolutely beautiful ground. We explored Olbia during the day, but loved coming back to this peaceful villa. Francesca was very communicative and let us know that Monica would be greeting us. Monica was wonderful, and so was her husband Martin. We would definitely stay here again!

Thank you Tara, Florida USA

Beautiful Villa in a fabulous location. There is lots to see and do all within walking distance, especially some beautiful swim spots!

The place is exactly as the pictures show.

Francesca was very lovely & responsive and Martin & Monica were so friendly and helpful through the check in and during our stay if we needed anything. The garden is gorgeous and such a lovely spot to spend time with friends, we could have stayed for weeks!

Thank you Francesca, we had such a special time at your beautiful place in Sardegna. Emily

Thank you, Francesca for sharing your lovely home with us in our week on Sardinia! We would definitely recommend the home and hope to come back again and stay longer!
Highlights:

- Francesca had excellent and prompt communication and very good local tips for restaurants and activities

- Martin and Monica made us feel welcome and were very helpful during our stay

- The views! We cancelled some of our plans just to stay local and enjoy the views from the patio. Morning, afternoon, and evening were all breathtaking

- Walking distance to local beaches. We really liked the quieter, less crowded beaches that can be reached by a short walk from the house

- Nearby water activities. Porto San Paolo was nearby and offered boat rentals and sailing excursions as well as wonderful gelato!

- Separate garden bedroom. This worked perfectly to offer my daughter and her husband some privacy during our stay. The outdoor bath was enjoyed as well!

Thank you again, Francesca!

The views are priceless even better than the pictures, if any one is looking for views then this is the place to be. Support team Martin and Monica are on stand by, if anything is needed they supplied fresh eggs and fresh tomatoes from their garden. Really beautiful peaceful villa, very well positioned to visit the neighboring towns and beaches. The whole familly loved it . Would really love to visit Francesca's villa again and highly recommend it.

Great villa dear Francesca thank you!

Spectacular setting, beautiful villa. We spent a week in Francesca’s fabulous villa in Porto Istana as a family of four with kids (8,6).

It was a wonderful stay - Sardinia suffered 50 degrees but we didn’t even notice, the sea breeze (and occasional mistral) cooled the whole peninsula that you could eat in the deck under a shady pine overlooking the beautiful blue sea at 1pm easily (and what a view!!!). Nearby beaches were stunning (don’t miss tre sorelle and spaggio del Dottore) and you don’t need to go far for incredible local food (and ice cream!). Francesca was a wonderful host - regularly checked to ensure we were having a good stay and the housekeeping/gardening team were friendly and full of good advice. So convenient also from the airport yet you would never know. 
If you are looking for a peaceful escape then this is it.

Thank you Francesca… easily 5 stars.

Unser Aufenthalt in der Villa Castànza war ein Traum. Wir waren 4 Erwachsene und 2 Kinder (1,5 und 9 Jahre). Somit hatten wir also genügend Platz. Besonders toll fanden wir die Terrasse mit dem herrlichen Essplatz und den unterschiedlichen Sitz- und Liegegelegenheiten. Die Aussicht war einfach herrlich und man kann gut einen Tag auch einfach auf der Terrasse "verbummeln". Martin und Monica - die sich im und um Haus um alles kümmern - waren immer sehr hilfsbereit und haben alles absolut wunderbar hergerichtet. Alles war sauber und gemütlich. Nur die Kindermatratze war unserer großen Tochter zu hart. Ansonsten war wirklich alles top. Da wir oft auf Sardinien sind, sind wir zu den Stränden gefahren, die wir bereits kannten. Mit Kindern wollten wir nicht lange laufen und der Strand von Porto Istana war im September doch sehr voll. Aber es gibt ja reichlich schöne Strände vor Ort. Wir können Villa Castànza definitiv weiterempfehlen und wir denken gerne an das wunderschöne Panorama zurück.

"This is place is just stunning!!! I haven’t been to a private home nor a hotel with this spectacular view. It is just stunning. And you can sit for hours just watching the beautiful ocean. The house is very cosy and the functionality works well. Very tasteful and traditional Italian style combined with a continental style. We were there during strict travel restrictions because of COVID and had all meals in the house. Small but very well functional kitchen. Be aware there is no oven, but the microwave works for some and you need to make use of your pans, which there are plenty of. The host Francesca was incredibly helpful and communicating in flawless English. Can’t recommend this place enough. IT IS JUST STUNNING!"
