This place is called Elixir due to its prime location in the heart of one of the world’s Blue Zones, and if there are secrets of longevity to be revealed, you’ll find them here. The interiors are simple, traditional, and characterful, crafted from reclaimed materials and antiques, for an effect that embodies the slow, wholesome lifestyle that defines this mountain village. The apartment has a living room with a well-equipped kitchenette, a double bedroom, and a bathroom, plus a small terrace with glorious views. Outdoorsy types, take note: There are reams of excellent hikes right on the doorstep, and you’re perfectly placed for all of Baunei’s stunning beaches, including the golden sands at Cala Goloritzé and Cala Mariolu.
