The Destination
Olbia — The Best Base in Sardinia
Olbia is the main gateway for holidays in Sardinia and the entry point to the Costa Smeralda — Europe's most exclusive beach destination. Olbia Costa Smeralda Airport connects directly with airports across Europe, with most arrivals just 5–15 minutes from our apartments. The city serves as the beating heart of the region, offering everything from world-class beaches to sophisticated nightlife and Michelin-starred restaurants.
Pittulongu beach — one of the most popular stretches on the Gulf of Olbia — is walkable from Azulis and Villa Dumas. Crystal-clear turquoise water, fine sand and shallow depths make this Sardinia holiday destination ideal for families with young children. The beach is sheltered, rarely crowded compared to Porto Cervo, and offers a genuine mix of local families and international visitors.
Costa Smeralda's most exclusive towns — Porto Cervo, Porto Rotondo and Cala di Volpe — lie 25–35 minutes from Olbia by car. Ferry connections to the Maddalena Islands depart daily from the harbour. The Tyrrhenian Wine Coast and mountain villages of Barbagia are within easy day-trip distance for those exploring beyond the beach.
Our location in Olbia offers the rare advantage of authentic Sardinian culture — narrow cobbled streets, family-run restaurants, local markets — combined with the infrastructure and dining standards of a world-class resort destination. Many visitors choose Olbia over Porto Cervo specifically for this balance and for the significantly better value when booking holiday accommodation directly.

Who Are Our Olbia Holiday Rentals For?
For travellers asking where to stay in Olbia, Sardinia, our properties cater to couples looking for a romantic getaway, families needing space and a kitchen, groups of friends sharing a villa, and remote workers seeking reliable fibre Wi-Fi in a Mediterranean setting.

Why Stay in Olbia Instead of Alghero or Cagliari?
Olbia is the gateway to the Costa Smeralda — Europe's premier beach destination. Unlike Alghero (northwest, 2.5 hours away) or Cagliari (south, 3 hours), Olbia puts you within 25 minutes of Porto Cervo, Porto Rotondo and the Maddalena archipelago while offering significantly lower accommodation prices. Olbia Costa Smeralda Airport (OLB) has the most international direct flights of any Sardinian airport, and our properties are just 5–15 minutes from the terminal.
Is It Better to Book Olbia Apartments Direct or via Booking.com?
Direct booking with the property owner is always cheaper for Olbia holiday rentals. Booking.com and Airbnb add 10–15% commission to every booking, which is passed on to you as a higher nightly rate. With RENTAL12, you book directly through our website — no middleman, no markup. You also get direct communication with the management team, faster response times, and the flexibility to negotiate rates for longer stays.
