Tenuta Blancamar is located in the Cannai Plain, one of the most picturesque areas of Sant’Antioco Island, nestled in nature and surrounded by significant archaeological sites. It is just a few minutes away from the beautiful beaches of Coaquaddus, Maladroxia, and Cala Sapone, and in close proximity to historically important Nuragic sites such as Grutti Acqua and the Tomb of the Giants. The estate is housed in an authentic 19th-century Sardinian Medau, which has been skillfully restored to welcome travelers seeking authenticity, peace, and beauty.

The rooms, created within the ancient stone structures, provide comfort and privacy in a setting that preserves the simplicity and charm of rural life. The spacious areas of the estate ensure a relaxing stay, with opportunities to explore the surroundings by horseback, bicycle, quad, or boat, thanks to partnerships with local facilities. Its strategic location allows guests to enjoy the tranquility of the countryside while being only a few kilometers from the vibrant center of Sant’Antioco.

Breakfast is one of the most anticipated moments of the day: it is served under “Sa Lolla,” the old barn transformed into a veranda, featuring exclusively local products. From Mama Eva's pastries to the jams made by Biancamaria with fruits from the estate, along with cheese from shepherd Antonio and honey from Agostino, each ingredient tells a story and reflects a connection to the land.

In line with a philosophy of sustainable tourism, the estate is plastic-free, promotes local producers, welcomes pets with prior notice, and encourages visitors to explore the island even in the off-season when the colors and scents of Sardinia offer genuine emotions. Upon request, guests can enjoy a dinner prepared with authentic products and traditional dishes, complemented by local wines and homemade liqueurs.

Biancamaria and Giovanni live on the estate with their three dogs, Mirto, Fonni, and Tessa. They are eager to welcome you and guide you in discovering the island, its traditions, history, and flavors, making every stay an unforgettable experience.
Rooms and Rates
Breakfast at Tenuta Blancamar is a true welcoming ritual, meticulously crafted and served under “Sa Lolla,” the ancient stable now transformed into a veranda. Each morning, guests can indulge in genuine products sourced from the estate or local small producers: homemade jams by Biancamaria, sweets and savory pastries prepared by Mama Eva, fresh fruit from friend Betty, artisanal honey, fresh eggs from neighbor Giorgio cooked to order, sheep's cheese, and Sardinian sausages. All of this is accompanied by freshly ground coffee from the Sant’Antioco roastery. It’s an authentic, rich, and sustainable breakfast designed to start the day with flavor and a sense of leisure.
Upon request, Tenuta Blancamar offers the chance to enjoy an authentic culinary experience with a home-cooked dinner that celebrates the genuine flavors of Sardinian tradition. The menu changes based on product availability and the season, but it always features local specialties: appetizers with preserved vegetables, cured meats, cheeses, and garden vegetables, a typical first course, a homemade dessert, and to finish, house-made wine, mirto, or limoncello. Dinners are served in a warm and relaxed atmosphere, ideal for savoring the slow and convivial pace of the Sardinian countryside. Reservations must be made at least one day in advance to ensure the best possible experience.

Area Campagna

The Blancamar Estate is located in the Cannai Plain, one of the most picturesque areas of the island of Sant’Antioco, known for its unspoiled landscapes, deep silence, and genuine nature. This region is a treasure trove of history, culture, and biodiversity, where Mediterranean scrub alternates with gentle hills, dry stone walls, ancient paths, and pastures. It is here that the Nuragic peoples settled thousands of years ago, leaving behind impressive remnants such as the Grutti ‘e Acqua complex, one of the most significant on the island, and the Giant's Tomb “Su Niu ‘e su Crobu,” which is located not far from the estate.

The location is perfect for those who wish to immerse themselves in history and nature while remaining close to the sea. In just a few minutes, you can reach the beaches of Coaquaddus and Cala Sapone, known for their crystal-clear waters and stunning cliffs. Nearby, you will also find the more secluded beaches of Turri and Capo Sperone, ideal for those seeking tranquility, as well as the spectacular natural pool of Arco dei Baci, also known as Is Praneddas, where a swim becomes a memorable experience.

The area provides numerous opportunities for outdoor enthusiasts: trekking among archaeological sites and scenic viewpoints, quad biking or horseback riding from nearby centers, and water sports such as surfing, windsurfing, kitesurfing, and diving in the more sheltered bays. It is also possible to take boat trips or participate in fishing tourism experiences to explore the island from the sea and enjoy the catch of the day on board.

About 10 kilometers away lies the lively town of Sant’Antioco, rich in history, museums, artisan shops, and waterfront cafes. Here, you can visit unique places like the Ferruccio Barreca Archaeological Museum, the hypogeal village, the early Christian catacombs beneath the basilica, and the Museum of Bisso, where Chiara Vigo preserves the ancient art of sea silk. In the evening, the waterfront and the main street become perfect spots for a stroll, an aperitif, or a seaside dinner.

To the north, the village of Calasetta is also worth a visit, with its white and blue houses, sandy beaches, and vineyards overlooking the sea. From here, you can take a ferry to the island of San Pietro and visit Carloforte, a unique Ligurian village in Italy, renowned for its red tuna cuisine and tabarkino couscous.

Thus, the Cannai Plain is the ideal starting point for a journey that combines nature, sea, archaeology, and authentic flavors in a corner of Sardinia that remains genuine, peaceful, and full of beauty.
