Budoni Baia S´Anna

Budoni Baia S´Anna

Baia Sant’Anna is an idyllic holiday village right by the sea, situated about 1 km east of the picturesque hamlet of Tanauella. Its beautiful, 100-metre-long sandy beach, nestled amongst the rocky coastline between the two large sandy bays of Budoni, is ideal for families with children.

Divers and snorkellers will also find plenty to enjoy here: a varied underwater landscape with interesting caves, all manner of fish and even lobsters is just waiting to be explored. About 1 km from the beach lies a reef where numerous ships have met their doom. Shards of amphorae still bear witness here to the sinking of a Roman galley.

The development is a low-traffic area. The small bungalows blend harmoniously into the landscape. Lavishly beautiful gardens with typical Mediterranean vegetation are a feast for the eyes. The houses are arranged in terraces on a slope; all have sea views. Tennis enthusiasts can enjoy themselves on the public tennis courts (which are floodlit). During the peak season, from mid-June to mid-September, a swimming pool is also open. Near the tennis courts there is a bar where you can get light refreshments and snacks. A good selection of restaurants and shops can be found in nearby Tanauella.

Sardafits Nos. 180 and 182–186 are situated in the centre of Baia S’Anna. Nos. 181 and 187 to 189 were built later on the outskirts.

Quick Facts

Shopping: A wide range of shops across all sectors is available all year round in Budoni and the surrounding area.
Internet: From June 2017, internet access is regulated uniformly across the EU. The connection in the village and the surrounding area is very good almost everywhere. The Centro Servizi Tartaruga lends out routers, and Sardafit guests can also log in for free at various restaurants.
Nightlife: The Porto Ottiolu marina in particular (5 km north of Budoni) offers – depending on the season – an international, sophisticated programme for all age groups, but even in Budoni itself, you won’t miss out on anything during the season.
Post office: In the village, with banking services.
Restaurants: A wide range of options available all year round, from ‘simple’ to ‘gourmet’. The restaurants on the beach are particularly lovely.
Sport: Boat hire, bike hire, fishing, horse riding, sailing, surfing, diving, tennis. Nearest diving school in P. Ottiolu. Golf in Punt’Aldia, 3 km north of S. Teodoro. There is also an airfield there for hang gliders and microlights, run by a German team. (All subject to the season!)
Language course: In Posada, 6 km from Budoni, a small, dynamic language school opened in 2003, which also offers short courses.
Telecommunications: Mobile phone reception is available almost everywhere. Payphones can be found in street cafés. Additionally, a German-speaking local service office provides fax and telephone services.
Hiking: The local “Pro Loco” (= the municipality’s tourist office) offers a wide range of exploration tours across the whole island. Sardafit’s service office organises, exclusively for its guests, tours into the unspoilt mountainous regions – the highlight of which is a feast with Sardinian shepherds in the most beautiful countryside – as well as boat trips to the offshore islands, a traditional Sardinian wedding feast at a farmhouse in the countryside, and much more. A map is useful for walks into the hinterland, as there are no signposts away from the roads. Highly recommended: beach walks!
