37 Sardinia Properties — Apartments in Olbia + 2 AZULIS Villas in Golfo Aranci 🏖️

How many properties does RENTAL12 manage in Sardinia?

37 properties total: ~37 apartments and townhouses in Olbia (historic centre and Aldo Moro area), plus 2 AZULIS villas with private pools in Golfo Aranci (Athos and Aramis). Several properties offer private parking.

All 37 properties meet AZULIS standards and are owner-managed. Live bookable inventory varies — check live availability on the properties hub. The two AZULIS villas (Athos + Aramis) are the only RENTAL12 villas with pools; everything else in the portfolio is an apartment or townhouse.

Why book direct with RENTAL12 instead of Airbnb or Booking.com?

RENTAL12 saves you 13% compared to OTAs (Airbnb, Booking, Expedia) because we are owner-operated — zero agency commissions, zero intermediaries. Same properties, lower price, direct owner support.

Booking directly also means flexible cancellation, personal communication with the owner, and no automated responses. You get the same villa for significantly less.

What does the AZULIS standard include?

AZULIS standard means every property has CREO modular kitchens, designer furniture (Laskasas, Cloto, Domkapa), A++ energy certification, heat pump heating/cooling, 5GHz Wi-Fi, smart TV, premium mattresses, curated real wall art, and modern smart check-in systems.

It's a construction and furnishing specification — not a marketing label. New build or full reconstruction to a consistent standard across all 37 properties ensures quality consistency.

How does smart check-in work?

You receive the smart door code 24 hours before arrival — no need to meet anyone. Unlock the villa or apartment on your own schedule. Traditional check-in at the office is available on request. 24/7 owner support via app, WhatsApp, or phone.

This gives you ultimate flexibility — arrive late, arrive early, arrive whenever you want. If you prefer face-to-face check-in, the owner will arrange that with pleasure.

What are RENTAL12's certifications and legal status?

RENTAL12 is certified by FIMAANORSARDEGNA, AIGAB (environmental management), Keurmerk ID 18530 (Dutch guarantee), Trustmary and Trustpilot. Official registration: IUN F1530 / CIN IT090047B4000F1530.

We comply fully with Italian holiday rental law and EU regulations. All properties are insured. Guests are protected by comprehensive booking guarantees and Keurmerk international coverage.

How far is Olbia airport from the villas?

Costa Smeralda Airport (Olbia) is 4 km from the historic centre — 8 minutes by car, 30 minutes by bus, 15 minutes with private RENTAL12 transfer (bookable). All villas are within 10 minutes of the airport.

This makes Olbia one of the most convenient holiday gateways in Europe. Rental cars, taxis, and public transport are all readily available from the airport.

Which properties have private parking?

Properties in the historic centre have included public parking permits (steps away). 7 properties offer private parking — marked with 🅿️ badge — no ZTL (limited traffic zone) worries. All Golfo Aranci villas have private drives.

Filter by parking during your search or contact the owner directly if parking is essential for your holiday plans.

What's included in the nightly rate?

The daily rate includes: accommodation, utilities (electricity, gas, water), 5GHz Wi-Fi, streaming TV, final cleaning, 24/7 owner support, and comprehensive property insurance. Not included: tourist tax (€2/night), damage deposits, optional pet fee (€10/night if arranged).

No hidden fees. The price you see is the price you pay when booking direct with RENTAL12 — 13% less than Airbnb or Booking.

What's the difference between RENTAL12 and AZULIS properties?

All RENTAL12 properties meet AZULIS standards (CREO kitchens, designer furniture, A++ energy). AZULIS-branded luxury villas are premium additions: private pools, sea views, jacuzzis, saunas, grand living spaces. AZULIS from €180/night; standard apartments from €55/night.

Think of AZULIS as the premium tier within RENTAL12. All 37 properties are luxury; AZULIS villas are ultra-luxury with extra amenities.

Can I get a discount for booking multiple weeks or months?

Yes. Direct booking with RENTAL12 includes flexibility: extended-stay discounts (7+ nights, 30+ days), off-season rates, and seasonal promotions. Contact the owner directly for negotiable pricing on longer bookings — another advantage of booking direct.

Workations, sabbaticals, and extended family stays can all be customised with the owner. This personal flexibility is not available on OTA platforms.
