Until the late 1950s, Sardinia’s fabled beaches and azure waters were known only to locals and a select band of yacht-owners. But in 1958, Prince Karim Aga Khan IV ‘discovered’ the remote coastline and set about developing an eco-sensitive paradise; Princess Margaret and others soon followed. But it’s not all glitz and glam; the beguiling mountainous Sardinian hinterland is full of archeological sites built by the ancient Nuragic people, and rural villages to provide a more genuinely Sardinian foil to the artifice on the coast. This is a living guide to the very best places to eat and drink in Sardegna. As I travel back to the island - which I do regularly - I will continue to update this list. If you purchase today, you will receive all future updates. Recommendations cover major resorts but also off-the-beaten-track options that are destinations in their own right. Every place has been verified by me and visited multiple times. Tips for each restaurant include dishes to order and background about the place. I've even included some personal anecdotes to give extra color to each destination!
