A place to rediscover peace, presence, and a deep harmony with Nature.

We do not simply offer Nuragic-themed hospitality: we safeguard and reawaken an ancient dialogue between human beings and their origin.

This property is an experiential hospitality center, where a stay becomes a true immersion into the island’s millennia-old history. We organize guided pathways, cultural experiences, and thematic retreats that weave together Nuragic heritage, ancestral traditions, and inner exploration. Walks among ancient sites, connections with the living memory of the land, moments of meditation and deep listening — every experience is designed to transform travel into awareness and personal enrichment.

We promote a sustainable and regenerative form of tourism that does not consume history, but honors it; that does not merely observe the roots of Sardinia, but feels them vibrate within as the universal DNA of the human being.

Because when you touch the island’s ancient stone, something inside you remembers who you are.

The wild, natural luxury of silence

There are places where stone is not just stone. It is Memory. Energy. A Threshold.

Here, every detail is thoughtfully designed to celebrate authentic Sardinia—the same land that, for millennia, has been home to peoples who lived in harmony with the territory, honoring the rhythms of nature.

For Sardinia, nuraghi are much like the pyramids are for Egypt, or the Colosseum is for Rome: testimonies not only to a flourishing, historically active civilization, but also to a spiritual vision—one that gave its outward expressions a monumental, enduring character.

Archaeologist Giovanni Lilliu, journal Le Vie d'Italia (1953)

For us, these words throb like an ancient drum in the Sardinian soul, echoing through the forests and across silent valleys.

It was from that very vision that, 15 years ago, our project was born: our small eco-spiritual temple, nestled in the heart of the Tepilora Natural Park (the only UNESCO Reserve in Sardinia), built according to the sacred architecture of the quadrilobate nuraghe—one central space with 4 circular chambers at the corners—just like the Nuraghe San Pietro down in the valley.

We have the privilege of safeguarding a place in Sardinia where everything speaks an ancient language—one you recognize in your heart, even if you’ve never heard it before.

A journey through time, just minutes from the sea

Our architecture is a reconstruction of the ancient quadrilobate nuraghe—one central space with four circular rooms at the corners—just like the Nuraghe San Pietro down in the valley.

For your stay, you can choose from four exclusive pinnettu rooms, the traditional huts of central Sardinia, built with a circular stone base and a roof of brushwood laid over a framework of tree branches.
