About the Work

Costa Smeralda emerged from the untamed, unspoiled land at the northeast end of Sardinia in perfect unison with nature. With Prince Aga Khan and other like-minded associates at the helm, they uncovered the area's boundless potential and transformed it into an exclusive, luxurious retreat. A-listers such as Marisa Berenson, Roberto and Eva Cavalli, and Naomi Campbell have been enticed to the region by the fragrant aroma of juniper mingled with the salty Mediterranean breeze. The region's rich natural resources blend seamlessly with a unique architectural style, making Costa Smeralda an unparalleled destination.

Established on March 14, 1962, on the request of Prince Karim Aga Khan, Consorzio Costa Smeralda was created to plan and balance urban and residential development within the territorial boundaries of Costa Smeralda. Based in the heart of the village of Porto Cervo, the Consorzio has been enhancing the tourist destination for the past sixty years while monitoring environmental protection. Smeralda Holding, the largest member of the Consorzio Costa Smeralda, has the majority of ownership of the most important hotels (Hotel Cervo, Hotel Pitrizza, Hotel Romazzino, Hotel Cala di Volpe), land, restaurants, and shops on Costa Smeralda.
