Huw's View

Sofitel Golfe d'Ajaccio Thalassa Sea & Spa stands in a panoramic position in the Gulf of Ajaccio. 

Suitable for both couples and families, this hotel benefits from stunning sea views from its rocky promontory which can also be enjoyed from the guest rooms, restaurant, pool and bar terraces. 

I can highly recommend the MyBed™ concept which are very comfortable! 

Sofitel offers guests excellent service and a wide variety of activities particularly for those who are looking for watersports (extra cost). 

This hotel is well situated for both the airport (which is not intrusive) and to visit Ajaccio, the capital city of Corsica. 

Car hire recommended to see more of the local area.
