Residence Verde Mare

The Resort and Its Setting

Residence Verde Mare is an independently run timeshare resort affiliated with RCI, located in Tortolì Arbatax on Sardinia's eastern coast. The Nuoro province is one of the quieter parts of the island — far less built-up than the Costa Smeralda further north, with granite headlands, hidden coves and a slower pace that regular visitors tend to come back for. Owning here means a fixed week (or points, depending on your contract) at a resort that trades on its setting rather than on big-brand amenities.

Tortolì Arbatax and the Nuoro Region

The town of Arbatax is known for its Red Rocks (Rocce Rosse), the striking porphyry cliffs that plunge into the sea just a couple of kilometres from the resort, and for the Gulf of Arbatax, with clear water that's good for swimming and snorkelling. Inland, the Nuoro province opens onto a very different side of Sardinia: the historic centre of Nuoro town, the limestone pools and hiking trails at Su Gologone, and the wild peaks of Gennargentu National Park. A hire car is genuinely useful if you want to get beyond the coast, since public transport in this part of the island is limited.

Selling or Renting a Week Here

If you're ready to move on from your Residence Verde Mare week, BidMyTimeshare lets you list it directly for other owners and prospective buyers to find — you set your own asking price, pay a one-off listing fee, and there's 0% commission on the sale. Buyers contact you through the platform, so you stay in control of the negotiation rather than going through a broker.

Because Residence Verde Mare is independently managed, resale transfers go through the resort's own owners' association rather than a branded head office. Before agreeing a price with a buyer, ask the management for the current transfer fee and the latest annual maintenance fee — these figures aren't published centrally, and a buyer will want them confirmed in writing before completing. If your week is affiliated with RCI, make sure the buyer understands that RCI membership and exchange credits are separate from the resort ownership itself and may need to be set up fresh under the new owner's name.

Renters, meanwhile, are typically looking for a specific week in the Mediterranean sailing or swimming season, proximity to the Red Rocks and the gulf, and the option to explore Nuoro's interior — so listing your rental dates clearly, along with what's within easy reach, helps it stand out to the right audience.

Practical Notes for Owners and Buyers

The nearest international airports are Costa Smeralda (Olbia), around 220 km to the north, and Alghero/Porto Torres on the western side of the island — both involve a drive, so factor that into any rental listing or exchange booking. Peak summer weeks (July–August) are naturally in highest demand for swimming and beach time, while April–May and September–October bring reliably good weather with fewer visitors, which many owners find the more comfortable window for their own holidays. If you plan to exchange your week through RCI rather than use it or rent it out, book well ahead for the summer dates — popular weeks in this region get requested early.
