The beach of Olmeto Plage is only 200 metres from the entrance to the residence and further beautiful beaches are only a short distance away.

For those wishing to pamper themselves, the staff at the residence will be happy to arrange spa treatments in the nearby Hotel Neptune whilst, for those searching something more active, walking, horse riding and boat trips can be organised.    

Whilst there is no restaurant on site, there is an excellent choice along Olemto Plage together with a small supermarket (just 500m away) for those choosing to prepare their own meals. In high season a bakery visits each morning with fresh bread (extra cost).

The Local Area

Located midway between Bonifacio and Ajaccio and originally founded in 1640 by the Genoese at the innermost point of the Valinco Gulf, this village has since become a busy port and town, surrounded by maquis-covered hills and turquoise sea.

Palm trees fringe the charming quayside with its inviting pavement cafés, restaurants and boutiques. There are various beautiful sandy bays and rocky coves to visit nearby such as Porto Pollo, Abbartello and Campomoro, which combine with the colourful town to make Propriano a popular holiday resort just 11km from the Residence.

Huw's View

Arco Plage is a lovely, spacious and well maintained hillside residence offering excellent accommodation which is ideal for couples and families alike. 

Its location, close to a choice of sandy beaches, together with its proximity to many interesting attractions such as the prehistoric site at Filitosa, the cosmopolitan marina at Propriano and Sartène which is described as “The Most Corsican of Corsican Towns” makes it an excellent base from which to explore the south west of Corsica. Car hire recommended.
