“Stunning property on a beautiful private beach”

We visited with an infant and a child and stayed in the family suite for a week. The hotel was an hour away from Figari Airport where we landed and 3.5 hours to Bastia Airport where we departed from. The roads were in good condition and the long drives were not as bad as I had imagined. The family suite was beautifully decorated and spacious enough for a family of four. It was very clean and comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed the extra large balcony overlooking the ocean. The bathroom was large enough with a double vanity, a walk-in shower, a tub and a separate toilet area. They provided Clarins toiletries and Le Petit Prince kids toiletries and everything was replenished daily except for conditioner and body lotion for some reason. But they were happy to provide when asked. There was a mini bar in the room and glass water bottles were provided per day. Housekeeping was efficient and there was an evening turn down service as well. We loved everything about the room except the AC and venting were weak for a 5 star property. The grounds and facilities are meticulously maintained and well taken care of. The reception and concierge were professional and helpful. We enjoyed the beautiful views from every level of the property as it is laid out on a hill. The breakfast was plentiful and delicious and the service was prompt and efficient. We tried both restaurants, and thoroughly enjoyed everything we ordered. Restaurant La Paillote had more of a relaxed vibe with an excellent view of the ocean. The food was amazing. We particularly enjoyed all the pasta dishes including ravioli and spaghetti. We enjoyed the molecular cuisine served at Restaurant La Verriere. The presentation and attention to details were mind blowing. We had our child with us and the staff were very kind to let him enjoy his moment at the kitchen as well. The hotel beach is very private and absolutely stunning. The blue water and the golden sand were just beautiful. We drove around to many parts of Corsica but the hotel beach was our favourite beach due to its privacy and exclusivity. We paid for the cabana to enjoy the private beach and it was totally worth it in my opinion for a family with children. It was very comfortable and the beach boys provided an excellent service. We ordered drinks, food and ice cream to the beach and they were delivered promptly. The coconut ice cream was delicious. I thoroughly enjoyed the facial I received from Clarins Spa at the hotel. The therapist was professional and attentive. I was able to relax using their indoor pool, sauna, steam room and ice room. The valet boys were very hard working and efficient, making it a breeze to get in and out of the hotel. There was an electric vehicle charging station. There were several small pools which made it more private and we were the only ones in the pool most of the time. All of them had amazing views of the ocean. It wasn’t the most family friendly hotels we have been to due to the elevation of the property and how it is laid out on a hill but we managed to push the stroller all the way down and just had to fold the stroller to take stairs down to the beach. The walks were enjoyable through the beautifully landscaped gardens and the beach boys were always willing to help.
