Cool white plaster walls, natural stone floors, a high ceiling, and traditional shuttered windows, lend a wonderful quality to the light in the stylishly-designed Casa Raffaela. The interior is a clever mix of modern and traditional furniture and art.

Sitting on the edge of the Piazza del Teatro opposite Alghero’s jewel of an opera house, you will sometimes find your long Italian lunch accompanied by the melodic strains of a music rehearsal.
