At RENTAL12, we believe true luxury begins with integrity. Every home we design in Sardinia is created with respect — for our guests, our island, and our people. We own every property, maintain every detail, and price every stay fairly from the start. No inflated rates, no fake promotions — just real value, genuine care, and transparent hospitality.

Zero Bank Financing Zero Booking Risk
RENTAL12 operates without external bank financing. Every apartment, house, and villa in our portfolio is fully owned without mortgages or third party debt. This makes us structurally different from agencies and marketplaces that depend on loans, seasonal cash flow, or external owners.
What this means for you is simple. Your booking is protected by a financially stable owner operator that cannot be forced to cancel, close, or resell inventory during market shocks. Even a crisis on the scale of COVID did not interrupt operations or guest stays. We are here long term, and every reservation is honored.
This stability is part of our Conscious Hospitality promise, alongside full ownership, in house cleaning, and rapid local support. You get the freedom of a private home with the security of a permanent, accountable host.
Diverse Holiday Rentals for Every Traveler
Studios, Family Apartments, and High-End Villas in Olbia & Beyond
Whether you’re visiting for a romantic weekend, a remote-work retreat, or a family beach holiday, Rental12 offers the perfect home base. Our portfolio spans cozy studios, two-bedroom designer suites, and spacious villas — each professionally styled, fully equipped, and located in Olbia, Pittulongu, Golfo Aranci, and (soon) La Spezia.
All properties include premium linens, adjustable air-conditioning in every room, high-speed Wi-Fi, and a beach kit (towels + parasol). Your Sardinian welcome features curated local wine, pecorino, and sausage. 🧀🍷☀️
In-House Teams for Cleaning, Laundry, and Maintenance
We never outsource quality. Our internal team handles deep cleaning (2–4 hours), linen service, maintenance, and guest support for consistency, reliability, and rapid response. We are proud to have no unresolved guest issues.
Quality & Control: We Own Every Property We Offer
Rental12 = Full Ownership, Full Responsibility
We’re not a marketplace. We own 100% of the properties we list. Every apartment and villa is hand-selected, custom-designed, and maintained to the standards we expect for ourselves. From CREO kitchens and designer lighting to secure Vikey smart access, everything is curated in-house.
We are not an agency — we are the owners. Your rental is never subject to third-party unpredictability. What you see is what you get — and then some. Rental12 is the only full owner-operator in Olbia, Golfo Aranci and North-East Sardinia, with over 1,000 verified five-star reviews across Google, Airbnb, Booking.com, Vrbo and Trustmary.
