Residences in Sardinia: Borgo Podere Monte Sixeri in Alghero - Holidays Sardinia

A Rural Retreat Near Alghero

On Sardinia’s north-western coast, a short drive inland from Alghero, the Borgo Podere Monte Sixeri occupies a restored country estate that has been converted into a small complex of self-catering residences. The setting is agricultural rather than coastal: olive groves, Mediterranean scrub and open countryside, with the sea within easy reach by car.

Accommodation

The estate is made up of a cluster of stone-built units, arranged in the style of a traditional Sardinian rural hamlet. Guests stay in independent apartments of varying sizes, each with its own living area, kitchen facilities and outdoor space. The layout suits families and small groups who prefer the flexibility of self-catering to the routine of a hotel.

Shared facilities include a swimming pool and gardens planted with local species. The atmosphere is quiet, and the emphasis is on space and privacy rather than organised entertainment.

Location and Nearby Attractions

Alghero, with its Catalan-influenced old town, harbour and long seafront, is the nearest substantial town. The beaches along the Riviera del Corallo — including those at Fertilia and Maria Pia — are a short drive away, as are the prehistoric sites and coastal caves for which this part of Sardinia is known. The airport at Alghero-Fertilia makes the property convenient for arrivals by air.

Practical Notes

A car is effectively essential for guests staying here, given the rural position and the distance to shops, restaurants and the coast. The residences operate on a self-catering basis, so provisions are best bought in Alghero or one of the neighbouring villages.
