Great place for a private family holiday
We spent 2 wonderful weeks here, which started on arrival when we found various items, kindly left by the owner, coffee, wine, Sardinian sweets, water, salt, washing up liquid, detergent and toilet paper, very thoughtful.
The great thing about this place is that it is set on its own, nearest neighbor 100 meters away. Which meant our 3 boys, which can be boisterous at times, could let off steam without fear of complaints, this allowed us all to feel relaxed from the start. The house is in a wonderful position, surrounded by green, at the foot of the mountains that rise up at the back of the house very relaxing views, as well as a view over the valley to the sea. There is a track that must lead up to the mountains and about 100 meters along, the boys found a fig tree, with delicious figs. The house is large with big rooms and the feeling of space, there is a huge living room, although we spent most of our time at the house living outside, we ate either on the terrazzo in front of the house or on the shaded terrace at the side, depending on the time of day.
Despite the tranquility of the house, we were only 5 mins from the busy local small town of Badesi, which was full of shops, supermarkets (the Italian type with good delicatessen and even fresh fish available), bars, ice cream parlors, pizzerias and restaurants.
Badesi has many summer ‘Festas’ and during our stay we all thoroughly enjoyed the ‘Summer Carnival’ and the ‘roasting of a bullock’ with a unique taste which is rare to find nowadays, ‘scrumptious’ agreed all my four boys (hubby included), both events highly recommended.
Badesi Mare is a great beach 10 mins from the house, white sand, clear water and various café bars on the beach, although all the beaches were fabulous along the coast and every one different from the other.
We noticed strangely, that the boys were more communicative in the environment and less inclined to be stuck on their devices, which we considered as a blessing, for the wellbeing of our family.
I could go on and on, and are happy to recommend the house for a super holiday, we are already thinking of returning next year, as it’s clear that there is much more to discover.
I nearly forgot to mention the day we spent at the local Thermal river, a pleasant surprise for all of us, wonderful setting, warm bits of river, like a bath and we came away with a wonderful healthy feeling on our skin. There was even a small bar under the Eucalyptus trees, for a fresh beer.
