Bentley Rental in Palau

Palau is Gallura at its most authentic: the Roccia dell'Orso — the Bear Rock — watching over the Strait of Bonifacio as it has for millennia, the exclusive car-free enclave of Porto Rafael, the harbour where the ferries cast off for La Maddalena. This is a landscape sculpted by wind and granite, and the unadorned solidity of a Bentley from the LSM fleet resembles it more than you might expect.

Everything worth seeing sits within easy reach of the wheel: the fortress of Monte Altura with its commanding military view over the archipelago, the sand of La Sciumara a stone's throw from town, and the bay of Porto Pollo, where the mistral fills sails and kites all year round.

From Olbia Costa Smeralda airport it is 41 kilometres, roughly 55 minutes: first the SS125, then the SS133bis dropping down to the sea at Palau. You can collect the Bentley in arrivals and savour the transfer yourself, or find it already waiting at the port of Palau, at your hotel or outside your villa in Porto Rafael.

Late spring and early autumn are the regulars' secret: mild weather, empty coast roads and no queues for the La Maddalena crossings. Luxury car rental in Palau is settled in a few messages: write to our WhatsApp concierge and check availability.

Between Monte Altura, Porto Pollo and the lanes winding down to La Sciumara, the Bentayga is the master key: raised stance, imperturbable comfort and space for boards, bags and guests. It is also the right car for anyone alternating days on the water with days on the road.

The Continental GT, by contrast, is for those who want the perfect loop: the SS133bis to Arzachena, a detour through the Costa Smeralda, and the return at dusk with the Bear Rock in silhouette. A hundred kilometres or so that justify the trip to Sardinia on their own.
