Chia, Sardinia

Chia is located on the southern coastline of Sardinia. I decided to spend only two nights here. The beaches were fabulous, the crystaline water was warm, and the sun was hot. The hotel I booked was The Baia di Chia Resort, part of the Curio collection by Conrad. It had 77 rooms on numerous hilly acres of coast-side land. Some of the cottages offered amazing views of the coastline. Since I was staying only two nights, I booked a superior cottage with an incredible view, as seen below.

This perspective of the cliffside hotel cottages was taken from the lighthouse.
A portion of the path down to the water. The only downside to the amazing views and privacy offered by my accommodations was the 80-100 steps down to the beach.
The water felt as good as it looks.
Pictured above is the lighthouse to which I hiked earlier in the day. The path can barely be seen just along the rocky plunge to the water.
The view to the north from the lighthouse. Part of the charm here in Chia is the lack of commercial development. There was only one larger hotel. That hotel seemed like way too much for this area.
The view to the south from the lighthouse. More amazing beaches as far as the eye can see.
I hiked around the coastline for a couple of hours and discovered this nice secluded spot that someone was enjoying.
And so my final morning here begins with this glorious sunrise over the lighthouse.

And that’s it for this stop on my island tour. After breakfast I will drive north and then west to the coast. I am heading to a very secluded and unique hotel. The journey to this very secluded spot will take three to four hours along some very challenging roads. See you there at Le Dune Piscinas.
