Rafael’s historic home

Once the private home of Count Rafael Neville, today a boutique hotel overlooking the piazzetta and the shimmering sea of the La Maddalena archipelago. Bougainvillea in full bloom, whitewashed houses, and the endless blue sky create a setting that radiates quiet beauty and timeless charm. Hotel La Piazza is an adults-only bed & breakfast — a place of balance, understated elegance, and pure joie de vivre.

Where everything finds its rhythm.

A car-free village

Porto Rafael is a car-free haven. That’s why we meet you at the parking area with our golf car.

The spirit of La Piazza

The original home of Count Rafael still exudes the soul it was built upon – an elegant space created for a kind of hospitality that charms and leaves a lasting impression.

The sea at your feet

Surrounded by the scents and colors of Gallura, kissed by sun and breeze, Hotel La Piazza sits right on the piazzetta — a heartbeat away from the sea.
