Description Purple Penthouse: Olbia

Close to boutiques, wine bars, and gelato shops, this one-bedroom apartment is handily located in the heart of historic Olbia. It also makes a great base for beach lovers who want to explore more of Sardinia’s north-east coast. Inside, the space is simple yet comfortable – and perhaps just a tad cosy when the sofa bed is set up in the living room. Our favourite feature is the terrace, perfect for soaking up a spot of sunshine or planning your day over morning coffee.

Home truths:
*The apartment is accessed via a digital key, so you'll need a smartphone.

*The apartment is in the Zona a Traffico Limitato (ZTL), where traffic is restricted at certain times of day. Your host recommends parking outside the ZTL or contacting them in advance to arrange parking.
