Curiosities about the DOLCE SPOSA
The apartment is one of the most notable in the Villaggio la Dolce Sposa, designed by Luigi Vietti, a great exponent of Italian rationalism.
At the beginning of the sixties, Prince Karim Aga Khan IV commissioned him together with Jacques Couelle and Michele Busiri Vici to design his interventions on the Costa Smeralda. In this context he built the center of the village of Porto Cervo, hotels, such as the Cervo and the Pitrizza, the Dolce Sposa complex and many prestigious villas such as the Cerbiatte, chosen by Prince Karim as his home. These were his "places of the soul" as Vietti called them.
La Dolce Sposa, one of the first settlements he built on the tip that closes the bay of Porto Cervo. Thanks to the centrality of the apartment, unique in its kind, the panorama embraces both the old port and the marina.
Furthermore, nature is of particular beauty, the area where the Dolce Sposa stands, the vegetation, between breathtaking from several centuries old trees, perfectly formed, but reduced to small and twisted by the wind, real Japanese bonsai.
But where does the name of the complex come from? Mentasti, owner of the Southern Cross and one of the first buyers of the lands of the Costa Smeralda, had a wife named Riccarda, who he loved to jokingly call "my sweet bride". It ended up that the place where the woman loved to spend almost every day, despite the large number of wonderful places in the surrounding area, was the beach where the village now stands. Thus, Vietti decided to call it "The sweet bride".
