Villa Maximilian | 4-Bedroom Villa with Private Pool in Pula Is Molas

Pula sits at the southern edge of Sardinia where Mediterranean coastline meets rolling countryside, and Villa Maximilian commands a prime position within an exclusive resort that rewards guests with immediate access to both championship golf and some of the island’s most dramatic beaches. Six guests spread across four bedrooms and three bathrooms will discover a property where Italian design sensibility meets practical family comfort, with ground-floor accessibility and a layout that encourages both gathering and solitude.

Inside Villa Maximilian

Villa Maximilian sleeps 6 guests across 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, arranged across two levels with deliberate attention to how families and groups actually live together. The ground floor opens into a unified living zone where the kitchen, dining area, and lounge flow seamlessly into one another—the kind of configuration that lets you cook while watching conversation happen in the next room. A double bedroom and a single bedroom occupy the ground floor, accompanied by a full bathroom with bathtub and a separate guest WC, meaning the early risers or those needing privacy won’t disturb sleeping guests upstairs.

The first floor houses two additional bedrooms, each with its own ensuite bathroom. One offers a single bed with terrace access and an ensuite featuring a bathtub; the other provides a double bed, also with terrace doors and a full ensuite bath. The kitchen arrives equipped with everything from a functional hob and oven to kettle and toaster—the real-world appliances rather than showpiece gadgetry. Wraparound glass doors throughout the living spaces frame views of the garden and surrounding landscape, collapsing the boundary between interior and the Sardinian countryside beyond.

Outdoor Spaces and Living

The grounds stretch across 1,000 square metres of thoughtfully landscaped terrain. The swimming pool—60 square metres with a depth varying from 0.9 metres to 1.65 metres—operates seasonally from approximately May through October, bordered by sun loungers and a dedicated terrace where afternoon light lingers longest. The rooftop terrace commands 130 square metres of unobstructed space and houses a hydromassage tub; standing here at dusk, you understand why visitors to Pula travel thousands of kilometres to stand exactly where you are standing.

An outdoor dining table positioned to catch the sunset creates the natural gathering point for evening meals, while a gas trolley enables grilling at will. The property includes dedicated parking and maintains the kind of gardens where you’ll find yourself spending considerably more time than originally planned, particularly if you arrange the available chef service to prepare dinner while you linger over aperitifs on the terrace.

Location: Pula and the Surrounding Area

Pula itself—a picturesque town 10 minutes by car from the villa—functions as the practical hub for daily needs: supermarkets, restaurants ranging from casual to refined, and bars where locals outnumber tourists even in high season. The town maintains the unhurried character that attracted visitors to Sardinia before mass tourism reshaped other parts of the island.

The surrounding coast contains some of the Mediterranean’s most photographed beach coves. Spiaggia di Nora, a sweeping arc of pale sand backed by archaeological ruins, lies 10 kilometres away. The Chia area, accessible in 20-25 minutes, comprises a cluster of exceptional beaches; Cala Cipolla delivers dramatic limestone cliffs descending to sheltered turquoise shallows, while Tuerredda Beach—30 kilometres distant—presents the kind of Caribbean-style sand and water clarity that snorkelers seek out specifically for its underwater visibility and protected marine life.

Culturally, the Archeological Site of Nora sits merely 10 kilometres away, where Phoenician and Roman ruins emerge from hillside and sea, among Sardinia’s most comprehensively preserved historical landscapes. The Foresta Demaniale di Pixinamanna—a protected forest reserve 10 kilometres distant—offers hiking trails through native Mediterranean vegetation where you’ll encounter juniper, cork oak, and wildlife largely absent from accessible coastal regions.

For regional exploration, the Cagliari-Elmas Airport (approximately 60 kilometres north, roughly 60-75 minutes by car) provides international connectivity. Wineries operating in the interior hills around Arzachena and Sant’Antonio produce Vermentino whites that pair naturally with the local seafood culture. Motorbiking routes through the Sulcis interior reveal villages where tourism infrastructure barely exists—intentionally, it seems.

May through October represents the optimal rental window—water temperatures reach comfortable swimming levels from June onward, while May and September offer warm days with considerably fewer visitors than July-August. The mistral wind arrives unpredictably in winter, making outdoor pursuits less reliable between November and March.

Who This Villa Suits Best

Extended families will appreciate the ground-floor bedroom accessibility for grandparents or guests with mobility considerations, combined with the upstairs separation that gives younger guests their own floor. The four distinct bedrooms prevent the awkward configuration of some holiday properties where the primary suite vastly outclasses secondary bedrooms.

Couples and pairs of friends benefit from the resort’s built-in golf club—a 5-minute walk downhill from the villa—without requiring car journeys to practice a round. Families with school-age children find the seasonal pool (May-October) and protected beaches like Cala Cipolla ideal for managing ocean safety. Multi-generational groups appreciate the chef service option, transforming potentially stressful mealtimes into shared experiences where someone else manages the kitchen logistics.

Guests seeking solitude gravitate toward the rooftop terrace and hydromassage tub, while those prioritising activity benefit from immediate proximity to water sports, hiking access through Foresta Demaniale di Pixinamanna, and the 10-minute drive to Pula’s restaurants and evening venues.
