The Local Area

Résidence L’Amiral is situated close to the heart of the charming town, port and beach of L’Île Rousse, (23km from Calvi and 73km from Bastia), named after the red granite islets now linked to the town by a causeway built by Pasquale Paoli when he created the port in 1758.  

Whilst architecturally more reminiscent of buildings found in southern France, this beautiful town still retains an authentic Corsican atmosphere. A pleasant evening pastime is to sit beneath the plane trees and date palms in the central square, Place Paoli, with an aperitif or a coffee, watching games of pétanque and listening to the locals chatting in the island’s own language - Corsu.

There is a small market on the edge of the square where a variety of fresh Corsican produce can be purchased, and there is also an excellent selection of restaurants and bars.

This is one of the warmest towns on the island with shelter from the Balagne hills and with gently sloping sandy beaches, makes L’Île Rousse a favourite with couples and families alike.

Huw's View

Résidence L’Amiral is a great addition to our collection offering a combination of quality and convenient self catering accommodation in a wonderful location, enjoying sea views, just 30m from the beautiful beach.

The apartments have been well equipped with attention to detail to create spacious, airy accommodation with superb kitchens for self catering although the proximity to a huge choice of excellent restaurants will be a tempting alternative for guests.  

Early booking strongly advised.  Car hire recommended to see more of the local area.
