Poecylia is a timeless art retreat, a peaceful sanctuary nestled in the Mediterranean scrub of San Pietro Island. Here, luxury translates into absolute silence, a deep connection with nature, and the opportunity to rediscover the value of simplicity. Far from daily distractions, the absence of technology in the rooms promotes a true digital detox, while the minimalist architecture and masonry furnishings echo the simplicity of traditional Mediterranean homes.

The soundproof rooms, surrounded by greenery, are designed to ensure a deep and rejuvenating rest. Every detail has been carefully considered to provide an authentic experience: beds built on masonry bases with high-density mattresses, linens made of premium quality linen and percale cotton, and Casablanca ceiling fans for natural climate control. The meticulously designed bathrooms offer soft towels and selected toiletries. Private terraces, shaded by pergolas, provide glimpses of the lush Mediterranean vegetation.

The African Suite, with its dual aspect, creates a captivating atmosphere, while the Sunrise and Sunset rooms align with the sun’s course, facing east and west respectively. From the property, a short path leads to the stunning cliffs overlooking the Bay of Becco, offering a charming view of Punta dei Cannoni and Capo Sandalo.

Poecylia is not just a place to stay, but an experience that invites meditation, relaxation, and reconnection with oneself. Here, guests can practice yoga and Ayurvedic treatments, explore the island through hiking or horseback riding, dive into crystal-clear waters with diving and snorkeling sessions, or simply surrender to the tranquility of nature. Wi-Fi is available only in the breakfast area for those who wish to stay connected to the outside world.

Not suited for those seeking the comforts of modern hotel facilities, Poecylia is the ideal place for those desiring an intimate and unconventional experience, where time seems to slow down and the sound of silence becomes an invaluable luxury.
Rooms and Rates
The day at Poecylia begins perfectly with a generous breakfast, both sweet and savory, served buffet-style in a charming setting with breathtaking views of the garden and the sea.

At Poecylia, breakfast is available until late morning, a true homage to sleep, making it ideal for those looking to rejuvenate both body and spirit.

The buffet features a selection of high-quality, organic, and fresh products, preferably sourced locally and typical of the region. The bread is homemade using sourdough, and the cakes, made with wholesome ingredients, are an absolute must. There are also organic fruit jams, crafted with cane sugar, along with a variety of local and Sardinian organic honeys. For those who enjoy savory flavors, platters of local cheeses and cured meats are available. And of course, there's an abundance of fresh fruit!
For vegetarians, several options for plant-based milk, kefir, and homemade yogurt are offered.

Gluten-free products are also available upon request.

The coffee comes from a Neapolitan roastery, providing a variety of blends for an energy boost, perfect to enjoy while lounging on the chaise longue and taking in the sea view.

Hey, I'm Piero

Poecylia is the realization of Piero Giaculli's dream, envisioned as a sanctuary removed from the passage of time, where nature and contemplation blend into a singular experience. Together with Simona Iurza, he has created a space for meditation and introspection, honoring the wild and untouched essence of San Pietro Island. The name Poecylia is inspired by a photograph taken by Giaculli in 1995, featuring two little fish in a perfectly mirrored position, symbolizing balance and duality. It was only years later that the remarkable coincidence with the island's ancient name, Poikilos, associated with myths and legends, was discovered. As an explorer and photographer, Giaculli was the first to unveil the hidden beauty of Becco Bay, a secluded spot inhabited by hawks, cormorants, and dolphins, where the silence transforms into a mystical experience. Poecylia serves as his invitation to slow down, to reconnect with the authentic essence of nature, and to be guided by the harmony of the location.

Area Mare

Poecylia is located on San Pietro Island, a pristine corner of Sardinia known for its wild landscapes and crystal-clear waters. The establishment is situated in a prime location, surrounded by Mediterranean scrub and overlooking the stunning Becco Bay, with views of Punta dei Cannoni and Capo Sandalo. Far removed from mass tourism, this relais serves as a peaceful retreat where nature reigns supreme, offering breathtaking sunsets and exceptionally beautiful starry nights.

Just a few kilometers away lies Carloforte, the island's only inhabited area, a village of Genoese origin characterized by charming alleys, restaurants that celebrate local culinary traditions, and an authentic, laid-back atmosphere. The island presents numerous exploration opportunities: from cliffs towering over the sea to white sandy beaches, from trekking paths along the cliffs to boat tours that reveal marine caves and hidden coves. It is also a paradise for birdwatching enthusiasts, thanks to the presence of the Lipu Oasis, where the rare Queen's falcon nests.

Poecylia is the perfect starting point for immersing oneself in the most genuine nature, away from the hectic pace of life, and experiencing total harmony with the surrounding environment.
