Is Prendas, the green heart of Sant'Efis

The Garden of the Hotel Sant'Efis in Pula

At the heart of the Hotel Sant’Efis in Pula lies Is Prendas (“the jewels”), the main garden designed for relaxation and contemplation. The pools surrounded by greenery, pergolas, and shaded loungers create spaces of intimacy and well-being, where every moment becomes a harmony between body and nature.
The garden becomes an extension of the hotel: a place to wander, experience, and breathe. Here, you can read in the specially designed relaxation areas, stroll among aromatic Mediterranean plants, bathe in the greenery, or let the scent of the sea envelop you. Every corner invites you to slow down, breathe, and rediscover the simple beauty of Mediterranean nature. A garden designed to be experienced, not just admired.

The garden of the Hotel Sant’Efis in Pula was designed by landscape architect Maurizio Usai, known for his ability to unite nature, architecture, and landscape design. The goal was to create an authentic oasis that reflects the soul of southern Sardinia and enhances the hotel’s privileged location, just steps from the sea and the archaeological site of Nora.

The result?
A garden that doesn’t separate, but unites the sea, architecture, and Mediterranean scrub, blending the hotel with its natural landscape.

Discover palm trees, mastic trees, bougainvillea, lavender, myrtle, and rosemary, enriched with exotic touches that lend a tropical charm. The Sardinian stone paths and winding flowerbeds lead you to discover ever-changing views, where the greenery reflects on the blue of the pools.

The garden’s aromas mingle with the sea breeze, offering an immersive sensory experience of scent, light, and silence. Staying at the Hotel Sant’Efis in Pula, you’ll immerse yourself in a landscape of beauty and tranquility. Since 2023, the garden has been part of the Grandi Giardini Italiani, the network that celebrates Italy’s most beautiful and significant gardens. It’s the perfect retreat for those seeking relaxation, well-being, and Mediterranean authenticity, a place where nature becomes an integral part of the Sardinian experience.
