CORSICA – THE ISLAND-SPECIAL

Overall, significantly more than 10 weeks of intensive reconnaissance and exploration form a solid foundation for the program you can expect on the island. Finding beautiful routes was not really the challenge; spoiler: they are abundant, even in sufficient to excellent condition. On the other hand, finding suitable and pleasant hotels, that was quite a challenge. Therefore, we are all the happier to present to you five wonderful destinations that have now also been tested during the first Corsica event in May 2024.

Enjoy a relaxed stay in a relais surrounded by a true sea of flowers on the outskirts of Bastia (two nights here), delight in the joy of a modern privatized boutique hotel on the west coast of the island (three nights in this gem that could have come straight from a high-gloss edition of “Architectural Digest”), marvel at the view of Bonifacio from a small hotel resort in the south of the island (two nights here), and unwind in one of the most luxurious five-star hotels in the southeast (two nights) of the island.

You will spend your last night in Corsica in a very special, completely traditional three-star house in the hills above Bastia. We have fallen in love with all the hotels, hopefully immortalized, at first sight. The location of the hotels—both in relation to each other and generally on the island—will allow you to experience the entirety of Corsica during this Corsica-Special.
This also includes the adventure and beauty of the coast seen from the sea. Thus, two boat trips are an integral part of this Corsica Special. Because the Calanques of Piana—beautiful as they are seen from the small road—are best admired from the water. Skipper Léo will present “his” UNESCO World Heritage site in a unique way. Just as unique and yet quite different is sailing in front and at the foots of Bonifacio—we have chartered a catamaran here—where we cultivate a generous dose of “Dolce Far Niente” for a sensory experience on the water, including the best ‘linguine scamp’i personally preparedby the boat's owner and, for those who wish, a jump into the clear water in front of the Plage de Spérone."
