Craig David and Donna Summer Bring 'Hot Stuff' To Cala di Volpe

Where: Costas Smeralda, Porto Cervo, Italy, 07020

Be still, our beating hearts. You know how Craig David’s been off the scene for what seems like eons? Well he’s coming back in style — by hitting Sardinia to sing his little heart out this summer.

Not just him, either; the posh Hotel Cala di Volpe on the Costa Smeralda is also throwing a concert with Donna Summer on July 25 (Craig’s is on August 13, by the way).

It sounds like a pretty fly setting: around the biggest outdoor seawater pool in Europe, overlooking the sea itself. Starwood, who own the hotel, is calling the summer series “a soundtrack exuding dynamic energy and cool”. Sounds like hot stuff ; we’re telling ourselves we were born to do it (sorry).

Rates here start around 315 EUR (440ish USD) — but they can get pricey; we've seen the same standard room up around 1,110 EUR.

Vacation and Vino at the Porto Cervo Wine Festival

Where: Costa Smeralda, Porto Cervo, Italy, 07020

Don’t know where Costa Smeralda is? Neither did we...till we looked it up on Google Maps. Turns out this erstwhile jetsetter haven turned-sun-bleached has been is in Sardinia, that unspoiled jewel of Mediterranean leisure. But this continental cougar is about to get her claws back.

The Porto Cervo Wine Festival in Costa Smeralda is taking place Friday-Sunday, April 24-26, this year, and is being presented by the family of Starwood Hotels & Resorts in Costa Smeralda. The five-star Sheraton Cervo Hotel will be serving as the main venue, and is offering a deal starting at 1197 euros for a double room.
