I had several beginners lessons with Swiss Kite teacher Sebastian . I have no specific talent nor experience what water sport is concerning. He made it extremely easy for me to follow instructions und learn quickly how to start a kite. The organization of the lessons itself was very easy and I was well informed from the beginning. Therefore. I can highly recommend KVS as kite school in Punta Trettu - a great place to learn this exiting sport.
Great spot to learn kiteboarding with a huge shallow water zone.
I can totally recommend Kite Village Sardegna. The location is nice with a small bar/restaurant, showers and toilets. The school owners Francesca and Pietro try their best to plan your lessons flexible and according your wishes. The instructors are very good and the price-performance ratio offers unequalled opportunities.
We had a great time!
I had a GREAT TIME with the team of KVS!! Francesca and Pietro are super-organized, available, friendly and happy to help solving all the issues you might have. The instructors are all super professional, patient and they adjust to your learning style, especially ANNA!! Michele at the beach makes sure everything works perfectly. The spot is great for learning from scratch and for beginners. I can only recommend it!
I have never practiced kitesurfing before, so I decided to try it at KVS Sardinia. I got the recommendation from 2 experienced kiters I must say it was defo above my expectations. The teachers know what they are doing and I felt it from the first class on. It took me 8 hours and I was already able to kite safely (without changing direction, the video is after 8 hours). The prices are also great and the value you get for it. The owners are super friendly and helpful. The atmosphere was also super nice and the food was prepared with local ingredients, which I really cheer up. The spot is great for learning as well as for advanced kiters. After all I think you will have a great experience at KVS Thanks again for everything Francesca and Piedro, you are awesome
Organisation:
From the first contact, the staff of KVS helped us organise everything, including our transfer from the airport, accommodation, car rental, bike rental, recommendations for various landmarks and beaches on slow wind days and they were even kind enough to give us a ride on the way back to Carbonia!
(Thank you Francesca, Pietro, Poncho, Mikaele and Matia!)
The club:
The club house is located right on the punta trettu kite spot. The club membership comes with all the perks of using the club facilities including storage, barbecue equipment, showers, (and it is possible even to camp at the club at very low prices!), as well as insurance for your kite equipment, valid in all of italy for the whole year, and all of this for just 15 Eur! (At the time of this review)
The food and drink prices are more than fair, and the staff will make sure you are never hungry or thirsty!
The Spot:
Punta Trettu (if not the best) is probably one of the best locations for kite beginners! It is characterised by the wide shallow water, with dedicated areas for teaching which is separated from the kiting area for more advanced surfers, and constant wind, allowing you to spend more time in the water and less time waiting for the wind!
The instructors and kite lessons:
The course is always tailored to the individual's level, and all instructors speak good english and have the patience of Shaolin monks! You communicate with the instructor with modern radios, so that the instructor is always next to you, offering friendly advice and improvement suggestions, regardless of how far away You have sailed! The lessons are organised based on the wind conditions, and you are only charged for time spent on the water, with the kite in your hands!
We were lucky enough to have two instructors, with Mateo teaching us the basics, and Matia helping us refine our technique and had us up and kiting in just three sessions!
In summary: Whether you are just hanging in the club, waiting for the wind to pick up, kiting in the marvellous shallow Water of Punta trettu, or bathing in the nearby beaches of Callasetta or Chia, toy are guaranteed to have a great time! We loved every second of our trip, and cant wait to get back!
Thank you guys for everything!
