    Description

    Hi! My name is Antonio, and I’m the owner of a small hotel on the beautiful island of Isola di San Pietro in Sardinia. I am also a member of Workaway, and I’ve volunteered in Italy and Portugal. I love to travel, meet new people, and discover new cultures and experiences. I especially love hosting people at my place, mainly to socialize and enrich myself with the genuine values that many travelers bring with them. I love being surrounded by nature and doing outdoor activities like hiking or simply spending the day at the beach. In my free time, you’ll likely find me swimming (even in the winter months!) or working outdoors on a DIY project using recycled materials. I also love cooking, reading and researching (any topic!), and art in general.

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    My house is located in the countryside, steps away from my hotel. It is divided in two parts, where you will have your own private room and bathroom, and a simple kitchen. There is a big terrasse with breathtaking views where you can enjoy your morning coffee while listening to the birds and sounds of nature, and plenty of outdoor open space.
    Sometimes we could host you in a private room in the hotel.
    Aside from accommodation, I will provide meals or we can plan meals together after work usually for lunch.
    I can provide food for your breakfast.
    Dinners are not included as any meals on the days off but will be nice sometimes to organise a barbecue or something typical.

    What else ...

    The house is located within 5km of the beautiful city centre and harbour of Carloforte, and only a 15 min walking from the closest beach.
    The island is protected and has incredible hiking/walking spots, beautiful beaches, and unspoiled nature. Diving, Sailing, Wind surf, Fishing, SUP and Scooter/bike rental is also available during the summer months. (I can however arrange to provide you with a bicycle should you desire).
