Live , Pray and love - Being First generation Italian American had me in tears when I first saw the location . So welcoming, beautiful, kind and amazing. The Hostess understood exactly how I was feeling . Sometimes your glad your parents moved for a better future but at the same time you are living a completely different life because of culture and adjustment. I know its one time visit (maybe) but to experience it with my daughter , who is just as much as Italian then I am . We loved it!! the food was delicious, the scenery gorgeous. The company fun and pictures "wow" !!! take my word for it " La Dolce Vita"

Amazing experience - Highly recommend if you’re looking for an authentic experience in Sardinia. Simonetta was wonderful teaching us how to make pasta and about traditions of her family. It was one of our favorite experiences of our trip. Food was amazing and also one of the best meals we had with everything prepared from pasta we had made and fresh items from the garden.

Stunningly authentic experience - Visiting Simonettas property was one of the most incredible experiences I have ever had. Simonetta is dedicated to preservation of the authentic Sardinian gastronomy and sharing her great grandparents home. Her work is beautiful and meaningful. She is inspiring and cares deeply about what she does. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a step inside of an older world, one that is only here if we are willing to keep it alive. This truly made me feel closer to my ancestors and I cannot thank her enough.
