accommodation at I Corbezzoli is laid out over two floors.

The property has serious architectural pedigree and is a classic example of the aesthetics that were so in vogue on the Costa Smeralda in the 1960s. Attention to detail, an unerring dedication to bespoke design, and a passion for local craftsmanship is in evidence throughout the property, from the carved wooden doors, cabinetry, cupboards and wardrobes that unite each space, to the use of handmade ceramics in the kitchen, the bathrooms and on the staircase risers. Other features of note include: lofty ceilings, painted white and supported by dark wooden beams; deep-hued, well-polished flooring; iron window grilles; multi-dimensional terracotta roofs; and sculptural chimney tops.  

Running along the front of the ground floor of I Corbezzoli are two reception rooms, both of which look out across the gardens to the sea. 

The first, a voluminous living room, features many of the aforementioned design motifs. To one side, a trio of comfortably cushioned rattan settees gather around a coffee table, while to the other, down a few steps, is a cosy sitting area with an L-shaped, built-in corner sofa below a pair of wide, rectangular picture windows. French doors allow the space to flow out onto the surrounding terraces.

An opening at one end of the living area leads into the the convivial dining room, which features a large central table and access to the main terrace running along the front of the property.

Both the living room and the dining room access a central hallway with stairs leading up to the first floor. The first bedroom, a double-twin with adjacent shower room, is accessed from here, as is a short corridor that leads to the second bedroom, a single with a shower room opposite, and the large, well-equipped kitchen, which opens out onto the side terraces.

The first floor, meanwhile, hosts the remaining sleeping accommodation:

• the master bedroom, a romantic double with four-poster bed, a decorative fireplace that’s been moulded into a corner between two walls, a dressing area, an en-suite bathroom with tub and shower attachment, and access to a shady private terrace
• a double with a porthole window, sea views, en-suite shower room, and access via an external walkway to one of two first-floor terraces
• two double-twins with en-suite shower rooms. One of these rooms also has access to a wonderfully panoramic terrace

There is one more shower room at I Corbezzoli, accessed externally from near the terrace outside the dining room.
