*****PLEASE NOTE*** IMPORTANT****
Between July and August I may be staying on the second floor of the house, therefore, we will be sharing the main entrance. If this concerns you please contact me before you book the apartment. Thank you!
**If I am not in Gonnesa my sister (Angelica) will give you the keys, will show you the house and she will be available for info or in case of any emergency. I will be available over the phone, just call me or send me a message on WhatsApp if you need anything!!

In the first-floor apartment and you will find:

Gonnesa is a small town on the South Western coast of Sardinia, it is central to Iglesias and Carbonia, close to Portoscuso, San Pietro and Sant'Antioco Islands. Gonnesa is a typical agricultural town and has its past linked to its history of mining.
Gonnesa is the perfect starting point for many holiday styles:
For sea lovers: the long sandy shoreline is composed of three main beaches; Fontanamare, Plage Mesu and Porto Paglia where you can find the characteristic Spanish tower and the fishing village. Many other amazing beaches are just a few kilometres from Gonnesa. Water sports are available in this area including surfing, windsurfing, kite surfing, and fishing

For a historic trip: many are also areas with high historic value like Porto Flavia, the Nuragic site of Serucci, the deserted mining villages such as Monte Onixeddu and Seddas Moddizzis and many more in the surrounding area.
For the countryside lovers: If you like trekking or cycling this is the perfect place for you: You would be able to walk or cycle around abandoned mines, see some of Europe’s tallest sand dunes, hidden coves, # juniper woods, sheer cliffs and coastal paths. If you are lucky you can see the pink flamingos on the Sinis Peninsula (Cagliari).

During your stay at this apartment building, you'll be close to Sa Punta 'e S'Arena Beach. The apartment includes amenities such as free WiFi and a kitchen.
  • Air-conditioned apartment with kitchen, washing machine, and balcony
  • Free WiFi
  • 5 minutes by car from San Giovanni Mine and 5 minutes from Santa Barbara Cave

logement bien sans plus
Personnellement nous avons passé de très bonnes vacances dans cette région. Le logement est vieillissant et n'a pas de climatisation comme mentionné dans l' annonce et il demanderait à être remis au goût du jour. Sinon rien à redire.

Sehr große Ferienwohnung in guter Lage
Wir haben uns in der Wohnung von Michela wohl gefühlt. Besonders der viele Platz hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Die Wohnung liegt sehr günstig, wenn man die Strände in der Umgebung erkunden und einen Ausflug in die sehr schöne Stadt Iglesias machen möchte. Gern empfehlen wir die Unterkunft weiter.

Soggiorno a Gonnesa
Abbiamo trascorso una vacanza all'insegna delle scoperte di nuovi posti, cucina e tradizioni. La vacanza nel complesso bella e interessante anche se non è stato ancora chiarito il motivo per cui, al pagamento del saldo, il sistema ha prelevato una somma superiore a quella rimasta dopo l'acconto e dalla richiesta di delucidazioni alla host, non abbiamo ancora avuto risposta.

Chouette / Nice !
L'appartement est effectivement conforme à la description dans l'annonce et il reste agréablement frais comparé à dehors, très appréciable en rentrant en fin de journée. Il est très spacieux, avec des plafonds hauts, donc une belle impression d'espace. Seul défaut majeur, le bruit de circulation de la route devant la maison qui empêche de dormir la fenêtre ouverte, à moins d'avoir un sommeil lourd. L'appartement est proche de routes principales, donc bien situé pour visiter tout le coin Sud Ouest de la Sardaigne sans perdre trop de temps en trajet. La plage la plus proche est magnifique, sable blanc, eaux turquoises et assez longue pour que vous puissiez vous assoir au bord de l'eau sans être sur la serviette du voisin ! Nous avons eu la chance d'avoir la présence de Michela pendant les premiers jours de notre séjour. Elle a pu répondre à toutes nos questions et a également été très réactive par messagerie interposé après son départ. The appartment is exactly as described on the website and, even in the middle of August, remains cool compared to outside, very nice to come back to at the end of a hot day of tourism. The rooms are large, with high ceilings, giving a real impression of space. The only drawback is the noise of the traffic on the street in front of the house, which makes it difficult to sleep with the window open unless you are a heavy sleeper. The appartement is close to the main roads, so ideally placed for visiting South west Sardinia, without wasting too much time on travel. The beach just down the road is wonderful, white sands, turquoise sea and long enough that you can find room to sit at the edge of the water without having your neighbor breathing down your neck ! We were lucky enough to have Michela onsite for the first few days, so were able to ask her lots of questions. She was also very reactive by Whats'app after she left.

Großzügig geschnittene, praktische Ferienwohnung. Abwechslungsreiche Umgebung: Strand, Berge...
Die Wohnung ist im Obergeschoss eines älteren Hauses. Sie ist gut möbliert. Auch wenn die Ausstattung schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen ist (was bei der Objektbeschreibung auch angegeben wird!) ist der Aufenthalt in der Wohnung angenehm. Die Sitzmöbel sind bequem. Der Essbereich ist großzügig und die Küche ist vernünftig ausgestattet. Wir haben im zur Gartenseite gelegenen Schlafzimmer trotz der Lage des Hauses an der Ortsausfahrt gut geschlafen. W-Lan ist vorhanden und hat eine ausreichende Qualität. Die Wohnung war für uns ein guter Ausgangspunkt für unsere Unternehmungen in der Umgebung. Cagliari ist schnell erreicht. Die Iglesiente ist sehr abwechslungsreich: Gebirge, Kulturlandschaften, Küsten, historische Orte. Den schönen Strand bei Gonnesa haben wir in der frühen Jahreszeit nicht richtig nutzen können. Wir sind viel gewandert, z.B. an der sehr schönen Steilküste nördlich von Gonnesa, an der Costa Verde und zu den Sanddünen bei St. Nicolo. Der Süden von Gonnesa ist ebenfalls sehenswert. Sant Antioco, Porto Pino seien nur beispielhaft erwähnt. Auch Ziele weiter im Zentrum der Insel, wie z.B. das Altopiano della Giara sind gut erreichbar.
