Spread across a low-lying headland between a coastal lagoon and the Tyrrhenian Sea near San Teodoro, the cluster of terracotta-roofed casette that forms Baglioni Resort Sardinia was conceived to evoke a traditional Sardinian village rather than anything that announces itself as a resort. Seen from above, the low-slung stone-clad buildings step down through maquis scrubland toward the water in an organic, unhurried arrangement — pitched roofs, warm granite-hued render, and planted pathways giving the complex the massing of a settled hamlet rather than a purpose-built hotel. The Baglioni group opened the property in 2019 as part of its expansion beyond the brand's classic urban palaces, and the shift in register is deliberate. The interiors carry that village sensibility inward. Bedroom walls finished in trowelled plaster — the colour of dried sea grass — are anchored by headboards upholstered in geometric Sardinian textile-inspired prints, deep reds and charcoals against bleached oak panelling. Terracotta floor tiles, woven kilim-style rugs, and open-frame steel shelving units with ceramic accent pieces in the rooms speak to local craft traditions without tipping into pastiche. The pool terrace extends that vocabulary outward: teak campaign chairs, sheer-curtained timber pergolas, and stone coping in local limestone establish an atmosphere closer to a private masseria than a chain resort. The restaurant pavilion, framed in white-painted steel with Philippe Starck's Masters chairs at each table, opens directly onto a garden lawn with the sea visible beyond.
