The concept
We have preserved the past with the best restoration technologies.
Villa Maestrale: A Restoration Balancing Tradition and Sustainability
Villa Maestrale, originally built in the 1920s, underwent a careful restoration between 2019 and 2021 to enhance its comfort, efficiency, and sustainability while preserving its original charm. Led by architect Piermario Barbero from Piedmont, this project was completed with a strong focus on eco-friendly solutions and modern living standards .
The project introduced architectural unique elements in Sardinia, blending local context with a deeper sense of identity. Custom wrought-iron balustrades inspired by the Marquisate of Saluzzo were designed specifically for the villa, featuring curved iron tie rods and semi-circular structural details traditionally used in northern Italian architecture. These handcrafted elements create a subtle dialogue between regions, adding character, craftsmanship and a timeless aesthetic to the terraces and outdoor spaces.
A Blend of Cultures and Functional Design
Following the structural renovation, Villa Maestrale was thoughtfully curated with influences gathered from different parts of the world. Indian teak doors from the 1970s, carefully integrated into the architecture, add warmth and character to the interiors. Outdoors, a garden inspired by Marrakech’s Majorelle Gardens blends North African cacti with century-old olive trees, creating a calm and harmonious environment designed for relaxation.
Great attention was given to both comfort and functionality. The kitchen is fully equipped with high-end appliances, ideal for guests who enjoy cooking and sharing meals.
Designed with modern lifestyles in mind, the villa also features high-speed Starlink internet (200 MB/s) and dedicated workspaces in every room, making it perfectly suited for remote work without compromising the atmosphere of a true holiday retreat.
“Travel, for me, has always been about movement and discovery — tasting local food and wines, reading the landscape, feeling the wind and the sea through sport. Surfing and kitesurfing taught me to listen to nature, while time spent between Sardinia and Bali showed me the value of slowing down, breathing and being present.
I discovered Punta Trettu for the first time in 2012, and over the years my connection with this part of Sardinia continued to grow. As a sommelier and passionate cook, I have always been drawn to places where flavors, territory and people come together naturally.
Villa Maestrale represents my personal idea of a holiday: not just a place to sleep, but a space to live. A house designed to be shared, to cook, to rest, to watch the sunset, and to spend meaningful time with the people who matter. Everything beyond the house is extraordinary, but Villa Maestrale was conceived to hold the essence of the experience itself.”
