The hype
Guests love the peaceful olive grove setting and mountain backdrops but have mixed feelings about the rustic maintenance.
Villa L'oliveto
$150-250/ nacht
Boek dit als You want to play Sardinian shepherd in a private olive grove without giving up air conditioning or Wi-Fi.
Waarom mensen ervan houden
- Total isolation in the Supramonte countryside
- Private veranda with stunning mountain views
- Authentic rustic feel with modern HVAC
Snel Overzicht: A charmingly rough-around-the-edges farm stay where the neighbors are sheep and the 'room service' is a friendly cat.
Beoordeeld door @roronoa_nico: I spent my days here just soaking in the silence. The rustic charm is real—cooking in the outdoor oven and watching the sunset over the vineyard felt like living in a movie. If you need to unplug and recharge in nature, this is the spot.

Reality check
Cleanliness scores hover around 7.5/10 — expect some dust, rural insects, and wear-and-tear consistent with a farm house.
- You prefer cooking your own pasta with local wine on a private porch
- You are hiking the Supramonte and need a quiet base camp
- You love animals and don't mind a farm dog barking occasionally
Schoonmaak & Onderhoud
7.5
- Housekeeping: No daily service. You arrive to a clean house, but maintenance during stay is on you.
- Bathroom hygiene: Functional but basic. Previous guests have noted it's 'rustic' — check drains and corners.
- Maintenance: Generally renovated, but expect minor rural wear (stiff locks, chipped paint).
- Linens & towels: Provided, but quality is standard rental grade, not luxury hotel plush.
- Odors & scents: Neutral to slightly dusty/musty due to the countryside setting.

Voordat je boekt
Goed om te weten

Wat je mee moet nemen
- Bug spray (mosquitoes love the olive grove)
- Sturdy slip-on shoes for the outdoor areas
- Earplugs (just in case the farm dogs are active)
Kamer Genie
Beste keuzes
- The property is a single standalone unit — you get the whole house.
Kamers om te vermijden
- The sofa bed in the living room is functional but best suited for kids, not a second couple.

Veelgestelde vragen & Verborgen tips
Alles wat je eigenlijk wilt weten voordat je boekt.
Is there a pool?
No. Do not confuse this with 'Villa Oliveto' in Tuscany. There is an outdoor shower for cooling off.
Is breakfast included?
No, it is a self-catering vacation rental. You have a full kitchen to make your own.
How far is the beach?
Cala Gonone is about a 30-minute drive (approx. 25km) through the mountains.
Is there air conditioning?
Yes, the house has modern AC and heating, plus a fireplace for winter stays.
Can I walk to dinner?
No. The nearest restaurants (like Su Gologone) are a short drive away, not a safe walk at night.
Is it hard to find?
Yes, it's in a rural locality (Orbuddai). Download offline maps before you arrive as cell signal can be spotty.
Tips van Insiders

The outdoor shower is the best feature — use it after a dusty hike.
- ✨
Buy your wine and cheese at the 'Cantina Sociale di Oliena' in town for local prices.
- ✨
The 'Su Gologone' spring is very close; go early morning (8 AM) to beat the tour buses.
