In 1956, a poet doctor with a touch of creativity and courage challenges the summit of Vallicciola to fulfill a dream. The Vallicciola hotel opens its doors to holidaymakers seeking tranquility. There is talk of "people yearning for peace, for thin air and fragrant silences"; from so far away comes the desire to offer visitors to our land a quiet place sheltered from the winds and noise. Among the jagged peaks of Monte Limbara, surrounded by a carpet of conifers, rises the Hotel Vallicciola in a serene atmosphere at 1053 m above sea level. Situated on a picturesque plateau, since 1956, it has been one of the most characteristic mountain hotels in Sardinia. It holds this title due to its altitude, its location among rocky peaks and dense coniferous forests, its exceptionally fresh and diuretic spring waters, and its mountain style. Monte Limbara, the second highest peak in Sardinia, is located less than an hour from the most beautiful beaches of Gallura and the Costa Smeralda.
