A preppy hotel located near Ajaccio. The Eden Roc keeps its international level despite its outmoded facilities. Hotel open this winter.
This hotel, on the outskirts of Ajaccio, basically lacks style. Its only advantage is the public beach a few meters away from the first bedrooms. The hospitality is rather cold.
Rest and reverie. The Castel d'Orcino is a relaxing hotel, more suitable for families and couples. As it is quite far from Ajaccio, it doesn't have too many tourists. The hotel is well run by the owners who are happy to welcome the guests.
This simple hotel is good for people with low budgets who wish to stay near Ajaccio. Open this winter.
Perfect for a week-end in the outskirts of Ajaccio. It's hard to be closer to the sea.
This charming hotel, located alongside the beach, has the soul of a family home. Its corridors lead to surprisingly decorated bedrooms. Mystery and marine fragrances. Le Maquis sea version.
Unique Paladien on the Island of Beauty, the Grand Bleu is located in the north of Ajaccio. It offers activities and entertainment for families, couples and friends.
In the heart of Ajaccio, the U Domu Palazzu is the latest jewel in the capital of southern Corsica. It has managed to create a modern style with panache, whilst keeping the atmosphere of a traditional Corsican residence. It wasn't an easy feat but they have succeeded !

Once again, the Club Med has chosen a wonderful site ! Completely isolated, facing the sea, it is a paradise for sport loving people and families with children who are searching for space. As a bonus: Cargèse, a very charming town. The village is open from April to October.
