Sometimes, all you need for a perfect holiday is a small private beach with white sand, a cocktail in hand, and the setting sun casting a glow over the blue sea. Hotel La Plage Casadelmar in Porto-Vecchio offers exactly that, nestled on a pristine, private beach overlooking the bay. It’s the perfect spot to soak in the vibrant, seaside charm of Corsica.
The breathtaking beauty of Corsica inspired the renowned French architect Jean François Bodin, who revamped the hotel, set to reopen in May. Taking cues from the island’s pure sunlight, stunning landscape, and warm hospitality, Bodin designed a hotel that harmonizes beautifully with its seaside surroundings.
For the renovations, natural materials were used to create a unique structure that blends seamlessly with the environment. The exterior combines elements like volcanic rocks, cement, resin, glass, and oak with the old stone. Inside, the rooms are furnished and decorated in soothing shades of green, blue, and brown, along with neutral tones like white and beige. With just 15 rooms and suites, guests can expect a truly personalized experience.
Whether you’re dining at the beachside restaurant with its gourmet Mediterranean cuisine or relaxing on sun loungers by the heated pool, you’ll always feel the warm hospitality that makes this place special.
