Enjoy Sardinia with a stay at these family friendly apartments with welcoming hosts. The surroundings are peaceful with mostly permanent residents living here all year round. The owner Antonello is your kind host who happens to be a building expert and has built these apartments himself on his land. Sometimes his family are here, the rest of the time they are in Tuscany.
This is a good spot if you want to avoid the crowds and yet still be within a short driving distance from a (really) good beach (about 1.5 km). In the town where you can walk or drive to without fear of not finding a parking space, you will find shops, restaurants and other essential services (cash machine, post office, etc.) - the closest restaurant-pizzeria you will find only 200 metres from apartments. If you turn the car in the opposite direction you will reach the beach after 1.2 km - here you can lie under an umbrella on lounge chairs or just throw a large towel on the sand. The beach is very child friendly and if you do not want to be under the sun you can relax under the pine trees in the shade.
Nature experiences are key in these parts; the ride up in the mountains along the SS125 is incredibly beautiful, and the coastal road offers beautiful small bays overlooking the clearest sea water. Arbatax is the largest city nearby but here you will not find many places of interest. Otherwise, it's worth seeking out the 'Nuraghe' - Sardinian ancient buildings (today most are ruins), where you will see evidence of their early impressive building work.
There are only seven apartments which share a pool here and there is also a children's pool. The pool is fenced and you will be given the key to the gate. The garden is quite large and the children can play on the swings in the playground and play freely when they are not in the pool. You can take a sunbed on the terrace and relax in the sun or shade by the pool. If you like to cook in the open air, then there is a BBQ for each apartment in front of the terrace.
Six of the apartments are on the ground floor and one is on the first floor. The apartments all have access to a covered terrace and a garden on the ground floor and a terrace on the first floor. The kitchens have 4 hotplates and a large refrigerator. Each apartments can accommodate 4 people in the bedrooms - on request it is possible to add an extra bed. There is also a washing machine and Wi-Fi in every apartment.

My family and I (2 kids, 7 + 12) have spent a very lovely time in Casa Rita. Our hostess was very helpful and friendly. The perfect family-holiday-complex. Peaceful, light, spacious, clean and modern. I can only recommend this!
