Hotel Cala di Volpe of is a luxurious five-star hotel located in a stunningly beautiful corner of the Italian island. Its modern and elegant design has been praised by many, but its close connection to the Bond franchise makes this hotel even more iconic.

Not only did it feature in The Spy Who Loved Me (1977) but also in other films such as Octopussy (1983) and even Spectre (2015). It was also featured in Ocean's Twelve.

Located on the stunning Costa Smeralda, the hotel provided a luxurious backdrop to one of the most memorable scenes in The Spy Who Loved Me, involving Agent 007 and Anya Amasova (Barbara Bach).

Bay of Lights

The hotel's name translates to "Bay of Lights" in English, which perfectly describes its beautiful beachfront location. Guests can enjoy the supremely elegant dining room with its epicurean cuisine, an outdoor terrace overlooking the pool and sea and two bars serving classic cocktails with a modern twist. Relax at the spa, sunbathe by the pool or explore the rugged coastline from the private beach with access to catamarans and kayaks. There are also plenty of water activities to enjoy such as swimming, snorkeling and scuba diving. 

It is not just a popular destination for movie stars but also for royalty. It has hosted the likes of Queen Elizabeth II and King Constantine II of Greece. The rooms range from standard double rooms to luxurious suites with terraces and balconies offering panoramic views over the Mediterranean Sea and bay.

At Hotel Cala di Volpe you can still relive your favorite spy moments while enjoying all of its amenities. You can stay in rooms that were featured in the movie or visit some of its famous sites like the Intermarine Cigarette 37 speedboat dock or Karl Stromberg's hideout Atlantis – both featured prominently during Naomi’s arrival at the beginning of the film.
