What does Sardinia cost?
Sardinia has a divided price level: The Costa Smeralda and Porto Cervo are among the most expensive corners of Europe, while the inland and the west and south coasts are significantly cheaper than the Italian mainland. Generally, prices are at German levels or slightly below — except for the luxury enclaves in the northeast.
