The story of the villa Scrosa
The villa originally belonged to Gianni Onorato, owner of the La Voce Sarda television network, and was subsequently bought by Silvio Berlusconi via Flavio Carboni, who had been convicted of the collapse of Banco Ambrosiano in the 1980s. Following the pressure of creditors, the property passed to Berlusconi and was renamed “Villa Sartos” and was also used as a “alternative seat seat” for the former prime minister.
Completion of the sale remains uncertain, as Cavaliere’s heirs do not seem to be in a hurry to hand over this little paradise, just a few steps from Costa Smeralda.
In recent years there have been various rumors of stakeholders, some of which have proven inaccurate, such as rumors of the Sultan of Brunei, Hassanal Bolkia, or the Four Seasons Hotel, who denied any involvement with the villa.
In the early 2000s, Villa Sartosa acquired the ‘Top-SECRET’ label, with strict secret measures across the area. Among the facilities were the amphitheater, the pools of thalassotherapy and the “pier 007”, which was connected by underground cave accessible by boats and underwater, as a stage by a film by James Bond.
Berlusconi’s lawyers refused to deliver documents to investigators investigating possible arbitrariness in a protected area, with a single directive approaching no stranger.
