Looking Around

Living the Lighthouse Experience

Live a unique holiday at Faro Capo Spartivento hotel, one of the world's most charming lighthouses, built on a cliff overlooking the sea in the celestial island of Sardinia, the exclusive gemstone of the Mediterranean Sea.

Awarded the best lighthouse in the world, Faro Capo Spartivento rises on a promontory called ‘Spartivento’ because in the tradition of the fishermen it separates oriental from occidental wind, and it is the western end of the Gulf of Cagliari that, together with the Cape Carbonara at the eastern end, forms the arch of the beautiful Gulf of Angels.

The beauty of the landscape is a counterpoint to the lighthouse architecture, which was submitted to a careful conservation restoration work by the Caglieri-based architect Mario Dal Molin. Faro Capo Spartivento has been decorated with a 'palette' of travel-oriented furnishings solutions. The result is a potpourri of items from different places and eras: tables, sideboards and oriental frames, Murano chandeliers, tailor-made pieces from local artisans surrounded by bare whitewashed walls and brick vaulted ceilings.

The property has six rooms, a rooftop terrace with a breath taking infinity pool, a restaurant and crystal glass ceilings that allow to admire the shiny starry sky at night.
