Villa with a swimming pool by the beach? Here is where to find them!

Every holiday in Sardinia deserves to be spent in a property that allows you to switch off and enjoy your free time. Our guests are often undecided whether the best choice to make for accommodation is to prioritize proximity to the sea or focus on the presence of a private swimming pool.
Sardinia Unlimited offers you the opportunity to have both of these features without having to give up anything! In this article, we wanted to highlight 5 Sardinia accommodations that are just a few meters from the beach and, at the same time, enjoy the privilege of having a private pool at your complete disposal.
Both types offer huge benefits. Having a holiday home with direct access to the sea in Sardinia is a real luxury that allows you to enjoy the sea of the island in the least common moments, guaranteeing yourself more privacy and experiencing the thrill of a dip in the crystal clear waters at a beach just a few meters from your room. A villa a few steps from the beach also means reducing the stress of preparing everything you need for a day at the beach, saving on potential car rental, and looking for parking. Some of these villas have paths that connect the villa directly to the beach and, at times, represent its only access point, effectively transforming them into private beaches. Perfect examples of villas that can boast a private beach are Casa Sun Bay and Casa Light Bay in Olbia, and Rosso di Tramonto in Portobello di Gallura.
Sardinia Unlimited offers you the possibility of renting a villa for your stay in one of the most fascinating places on the island with ease.
In addition to all this, we offer the possibility of renting a villa with a private swimming pool. You will have the freedom to enjoy yourself to the fullest by cooling off on the hottest days or simply by spending as much time as you like by the pool during meals, aperitifs, or while reading a book or watching a film.
Being the two most recommended features by our agency, we will continue to recommend them individually but, equally, we encourage you to book a villa with both of these features to ensure that your stay reaches its full potential.
We have selected several holiday homes with private pools and with direct access to the beach. Keep scrolling!

SHORT RENTALS? DISCOVER WITH US THE REGULATIONS FOR RENTING YOUR PROPERTY IN SARDINIA
THE REGULATION OF TOURIST LEASE AGREEMENTS
In recent years there has been a growth in the business of tourist rentals, also known as "short-term rentals", of accommodations used as holiday homes in Sardinia.
Tourist locations are defined as those locations that meet the following requirements:
- residential properties. Therefore, not applicable to shops, offices, warehouses, land;
- the tourist rental contract must be stipulated by the holder of the real right or by a person legitimized by him;
- the short-term rental contract is stipulated between natural persons, who do not exercise any organized business activity in order to produce or exchange goods or services;
- the duration of the tourist rental contract cannot exceed 30 days;
- short-term rental taxation can be invoked for no more than four properties per person. The lease of more than four properties is, in fact, qualified as a business activity, with the obligation of a VAT number and the impossibility of opting for the dry coupon.
The tourist lease contract does not have to be registered with the Revenue Agency; therefore, it is not subject to the payment of stamp duties and registration tax, unlike leases lasting more than 30 days.
However, starting next 2023, it will also be mandatory for short-term leases of no more than 30 days and relating to residential properties, to notify the Revenue Agency of the year of the lease and the cadastral data of the rented apartment. The obligation will also concern lease contracts signed with the intervention of real estate brokers.

The story of Villa Smeralda: a holiday villa in Sardinia
“Antonio, can you tell me what Sardinian wine should i open tonight? It should go well with red meat. Most importantly I want it to make me emotional so that my memory, of once I carried a couple of bottles with me in Bavaria, takes me back here, in Portobello di Gallura. I would like to, by drinking that wine, see that sunset once again, smell the scents of the typical Sardinian cuisine, the friendly company, the sound of the waves when the mistral wind, that travelled so long from the Gulf of Lion, arrives at the Sardinian granite cliffs and make the marine roses dance.’’
Mark, a professional living in Munich, called me for this simple advice. He reserved villa Smeralda for himself and his family, a property that has been managed by Sardinia Unlimited for over a decade. Mark is one of our legacy clients. We’ve assisted him for over a decade. He usually books a holiday in Sardinia twice a year and, if it’s available, he would like to spend the two holidays in different locations.
