As summer’s golden light begins to soften into early autumn, Sardinia’s Emerald Coast offers the perfect haven for those seeking elegance, relaxation, and adventure. This September, travellers from the GCC are invited to unwind at two of the Mediterranean’s most iconic destinations—Hotel Cala di Volpe and Cervo Hotel—where luxury meets nature in sublime harmony. With curated experiences ranging from world-class spa treatments to regattas and fine dining, the region promises a restorative escape that nurtures both body and spirit.
Hotel Cala di Volpe, a timeless emblem of glamour since 1963, welcomes guests with crystal-clear waters, pristine beaches, and verdant gardens. This season, it transforms with the creative takeover by Dolce & Gabbana’s DG Resort, infusing the pool area and Atrium Bar with vibrant Sicilian artistry. Hand-painted vases, soft cotton beach towels, and iconic motifs bring bursts of colour, while a specially curated pop-up store offers guests an immersive shopping experience. The hotel’s Olympic-sized saltwater pool and picturesque terraces invite relaxation amidst beauty and elegance.
For those seeking holistic rejuvenation, the Shiseido Spa Cala di Volpe unveils the new Future Solution LX Legendarytreatment, making its Italian debut in this breathtaking retreat. Wellness rituals inspired by Japanese traditions refresh mind and body, while a professional outdoor fitness area overlooking the sea allows guests to exercise against a backdrop of sapphire waters. Culinary delights at the hotel’s celebrated restaurants—ranging from Nobu’s world-renowned flavours to Sardinian classics at Ai Due Mari—create a sensory journey that lingers long after mealtime.
Just minutes from the hotel, Pevero Golf Club and Mouratoglou Tennis Center offer adrenaline-charged experiences for sports enthusiasts. Golfers can perfect their swings under the guidance of Francesco Molinari at the prestigious academy, while tennis and padel players train with world-class coaches in facilities designed for champions. Both venues combine sport with breathtaking scenery, ensuring guests feel invigorated in every stroke and serve.
Meanwhile, Cervo Hotel, nestled in the heart of Porto Cervo, invites guests to explore the vibrant cultural tapestry of Sardinia. With marinas, boutiques, and Michelin-starred dining just steps away, the hotel becomes a gateway to the region’s elegance and charm. Guests can immerse themselves in gastronomic excellence at Quattro Passi al Pescatore or sip bespoke cocktails at Bar Il Portico while enjoying sweeping views of the coast.
September’s highlight at Porto Cervo is the return of prestigious regattas, including the Maxi Yacht Rolex Cup and the 52 Super Series Porto Cervo Sailing Week. Sailors and spectators alike are treated to thrilling races, exceptional hospitality, and stunning sunsets that define the Mediterranean’s finest lifestyle. These events combine competition with leisure, offering an exhilarating experience both on land and at sea.
For those longing for seclusion, a private beach retreat awaits just a boat ride away from Cervo Hotel. Reserved exclusively for in-house guests, this pristine stretch of golden sands and clear waters offers unmatched privacy and serenity. Whether basking in the sun or sharing a romantic moment by the sea, this hidden gem epitomizes the essence of a luxurious Mediterranean getaway—where every detail is designed to soothe, inspire, and delight.
