Northern Sardinia is an exquisite place, with its turquoise seas, sumptuous sunshine, and mile after mile of rugged coastline – it's basically the Caribbean, but in Italy . And it's in this fabulous setting that you'll find the five-star Valle dell'Erica Thalasso & Spa, the resort more than matching the grandeur of its natural surroundings.

The mammoth resort consists of two distinct yet intertwined hotels – Hotel Erica and the newer La Licciola – offering 271 rooms and suites alongside a stretch of secluded coastline. It's an absolute haven of luxury and calm: the kind of place where beaches are quietly raked at dawn, golf buggies approach you offering lifts to your sun lounger, and, one morning, you stumble upon an actual helipad.
