North Sardinia is not just one destination: it is many different holidays in the same territory. In a few hours by car you move from Caribbean sea to medieval village, from granite trekking to dinner in a winery.
Thanks to the airports of Alghero e Olbia and the ports of Porto Torres e Olbia, it is easily reachable from all over Europe.
Understanding the areas is the first step to a perfect holiday: each has a different character, landscape and pace.
Crystal-clear sea, the Asinara National Park, logistical base for those arriving by ferry. The Pelosa area.
Catalan old town, evening life, sea-view restaurants and beaches within easy reach. The mix between city and relaxation.
Wind-sculpted granite, the La Maddalena Archipelago a step away, coves among red rocks.
White sand, facilities, beach life. Cala Gonone as the gateway to the Gulf of Orosei.
La Pelosa beach, among the most beautiful in Europe. Shallow turquoise sea, ideal base for Asinara. La Pelosa has limited access: book your entry online days in advance.
👉 Holiday homes in StintinoCatalan old town, sea and nightlife. Perfect for those who want to alternate beach, culture and evenings out.

It depends on the type of holiday: Stintino for the sea, Alghero for the mix of beaches and city, Castelsardo for the historic village, Santa Teresa di Gallura for the panoramic views towards Corsica.
The price varies depending on season, location and type of accommodation. Booking directly with AffittaSardegna gives you better terms than the major online portals.
Alghero offers more amenities and city life; Stintino is ideal for those seeking crystal-clear sea and relaxation. Many combine both in a single stay.
For a first visit we recommend at least 7 days. To explore the entire area between Alghero, Stintino, Castelsardo and Gallura, 10–14 days are ideal.
Over 300 homes managed since 2011 in the main locations of North Sardinia.
Book direct and save up to 15% — no middlemen, local assistance.
