Top 10 of the most beautiful hotels in Corsica

The Capu Biancu has to be earned: a good ten minutes on a (very) bad road with almost no signposting. But once you get there, you're in for a treat! Built on a small ledge, between the maquis and the sea, this hotel is the only one of its kind in the world, and is the perfect place to relax.

And what about the swimming pool, surrounded by greenery and overlooking the sea? The hotel also has several restaurants, a lounge bar and three private beaches. The rooms at this 4-star establishment have superb views of the sea or the maquis.

Unquestionably one of the best addresses in the Calvi region. Its assets: a lot of charm, a bucolic and confidential setting, a gourmet restaurant and very comfortable accommodation. In short, a great place to live, just a few kilometres from the beach and Calvi town centre!

On a human scale, with just 18 rooms, this establishment is ideal for couples who want to get away from it all in an idyllic setting, and more simply for anyone looking for top-of-the-range comfort without the fuss.

Made entirely of stone and wood, Le Belvédère is a surprising hotel, a place full of character that will appeal to those in search of an unusual place to stay. Here, the peace and quiet will delight you. And don't forget the exquisite, Michelin-starred cuisine!

The hotel's big plus? Its location! Le Belvédère is set in a centuries-old forest of umbrella pines, eucalyptus and palm trees, directly on the beach opposite the old town of Porto-Vecchio. With just 15 rooms and 4 suites, all carefully decorated, the atmosphere is intimate.

Situated on the heights of Calvi, the hotel La Villa offers top-of-the-range services in a pleasant and peaceful environment. Built on a vast plot of land overlooking the Bay of Calvi, La Villa has around fifty rooms arranged around a beautiful infinity pool.

A member of the Relais & Châteaux family, the hotel boasts a pleasant, tranquil setting and a sober, stylish decor. It has a tennis court, 3 swimming pools, a fitness room and a hammam.

Situated at the end of the Gulf of Ajaccio, on the edge of the beach, this charming hotel has the soul of a family home and the services of a luxury hotel. Its corridors lead to elegant rooms decorated in the style of yesteryear. Mysteries and scents of the sea, the Maquis by the sea!

This bourgeois house has 25 bedrooms, all different. Three overlook the garden, the others the sea. Depending on the season, you can enjoy the outdoor pool with sea views, or the indoor pool under a glass roof.

A charming hotel in a dream setting. The Marina di Cavu is a tiny luxury hotel lost in the maquis, just 10 minutes from the centre of Bonifacio. You don't come here by chance. It offers royal peace and quiet to those for whom a holiday can only be envisaged in a luxury establishment.

Marina di Cavu is a small, cosy hotel with just nine rooms. The establishment is nestled against blocks of granite. In some rooms, the raw rock has been left as is. It couldn't be more intimate: from the restaurant to the swimming pool, heated in autumn, you'll feel right at home.

A beautiful 4-star hotel, the Best Western is a top-of-the-range address in a dream setting, facing the lighthouse on the Pietra islands. The most spectacular place to admire the view, apart from the balconies of some rooms, is undoubtedly the bar!

The 57-room hotel boasts a modern style and cosy, designer decor. You'll love the swimming pool, the various lounge areas and the two terraces on either side of the hotel, where you can soak up the sun. And don't forget the delicious breakfasts!

The Marinca estate rises in the hills near Propriano and stretches down to the first grains of sand in a pretty, solitary cove. A gentle slope tumbling down into a warm, clear sea. Tucked away in nature, this unpretentious, secluded hotel enjoys peaceful days.

The hotel is of modern construction, and the site and its breathtaking views over the Gulf of Valinco are beyond reproach. The 56 rooms are spread over two levels, are fairly large and all have sea views.

The address for those who deny themselves nothing. Thalassotherapy, private beach, posh clientele... The Grand Hôtel de Cala Rossa is all about luxury, and it shows. This extremely chic Relais & Châteaux hotel is located on a private estate known for its beautiful beach.

This large building dating from the 1960s welcomes you in a halo of vegetation. Here, silence is golden. At night, the establishment has around fifty large, bright and comfortable rooms. They are decorated to a very high standard, and half have a sea view.

Rest and contemplation. Castel d'Orcino is a Zen hotel, renowned for its tranquillity, and more suited to couples. Its remoteness from Ajaccio means that it is unspoilt by tourism. The establishment is well run by welcoming owners.

This hotel, with its modern architecture, blends into the natural setting of the Gulf of Sagone. The hotel's 30 rooms are well-decorated, elegant and unfussy. We love the beautiful swimming pool and whirlpool surrounded by a large wooden deck overlooking the deep blue sea.
