Tasteful Concepts and 12.18. open the Signature-Beach Club at the new 7Pines Resort Sardinia, “raw” luxury for an unforgettable experience. 76 days and nights of emotions in the enchanting nature of the Costa Smeralda.
A combination of a trendy beach club and an exclusive restaurant, where fun is combined with excellent cuisine, good music and an informal atmosphere opens in Baja Sardinia, after the soft opening on 25 June, from 1 July with a grand opening.
This is the Cone Club Sardinia, the Beach Club of the new 7Pines Resort Sardinia, not far from Porto Cervo, a magical place to live an unforgettable experience in the heart of the Costa Smeralda until it closes in mid-September.
The Beach Club sits enthroned on the water, where the sea for centuries has created a gentle promontory by carving the rock, while the Maddalena Islands loom on the horizon and elegant yachts dock nearby, served by the club-owned tender service. A setting that promises something extraordinary. All day. All night. All unique. A place for hedonists looking for the pure pleasure of life.
Guests will have “76 days of uniqueness” to experience it, followed by as many nights, each one different from the other, with slow rhythms alternating with moments of pure fun. From relaxing on the beach to night-long parties, all surrounded by the pristine and characteristic nature of this stretch of coast.
The architecture and design of the Temporary Club blend harmoniously into the landscape where the scent of myrtle is added to that of the emerald sea. Tohru Nakamura, German-Japanese top chef, curates the unpretentious but excellent beach cuisine in close collaboration with the on-site chef, local producers, growers as well as fishermen. Last but not least, part of the kitchen crew the chefs Clemens Kriegerowski and Nicholas Hahn who propose light menus with surprising flavors. In addition to the premium Mediterranean cuisine with materials coming from local sources and a “Japanese” touch, a selection of signature tartare (meat, fish, vegetarian and vegan) will be a captivating proposal on the menu.
The Cone Club does not bear the claim “76 Days of Uniqueness” for nothing. Because guests only have 76 days this season to experience this special place. That means exactly 76 sunsets, each one an unforgettable experience not to be missed. But not only for sundowners is the Beach Club at 7Pines Resort Sardinia the right place to turn individual dreams and desires into reality – sometimes intensely decelerated, sometimes excitingly energetic.
The outdoor-only concept, which Munich-based restaurateur and Managing Director Marc Uebelherr devised for the dreamy bay together with Project Developer Christoph Kiening and strategic consultant Mirko Negri, skilfully and casually balances the fast and slow moments of the day. From relaxed hanging out on thebeach to exuberant partying into the night, exclusivity and the highest quality meet unspoiled nature and down-to-earthness, accompanied by exclusive signature foods & drinks.
From the architectural point of view, Jörg Lindner, managing partner of the 12.18. Group, considers the 7Pines Resort Sardinia the ideal place to continue the Cone Club concept that started at the 7Pines Resort Ibiza, which opened in 2018: “When I was here for the first time, I knew immediately: if we want to take the Cone Club brand into the future, Sardinia with its flair, its people and this unique bay is exactly the right place.”
Natural materials and authentic aesthetics provide a “raw luxury experience,” as Mirko Negri puts it, who as strategic consultant brings to the concept his many years of expertise from luxury beach club legends such as Nikki Beach and Phi Beach. “The idea of the beach club has always evolved over the past 20 years,” Negri emphasizes. “The Cone Club is the best possible result of this evolution and all our experiences: back to the roots, holistically active, pleasantly casual and elegant at the same time.” The concept thus deliberately addresses people of all ages who live by the motto “quality not quantity.” They decide what happens at the Cone Club: “Whether they prefer to relax on the comfortable daybeds or dance on the tables,” announces Christoph Kiening, “the mood will change every day at this very special place.”
“Together with the 12.18. team, we have been working towards the opening day for a long time. We are happy that it can now start soon and that we can welcome the first guests,” sums up Managing Director Marc Uebelherr. “We are therefore looking forward to young, internationally minded people who share our vision and let the Cone Club shine with their personality,” he encourages applicants with a suitable mindset to become part of the Cone Club team.
