With some of southern Corsica’s finest beaches and the historic town of Porto-Vecchio close by, Villa Arburi is a fantastic base for a summer holiday with your family or a group of friends.
This ground floor villa is in a private domaine with tall trees and a mere 2km from the coast - it's such a picturesque setting without being too cut off from the many attractions of this part of the island.
The heart of the home is the open-plan living space where you and your party can come together for breakfast or a glass of wine in the evenings. The living room has a large comfy sofa, a TV, and a dining table to seat up to eight guests. The well-equipped kitchen is also open plan, featuring everything you could need for cooking sumptuous meals with ease to enjoy on the terrace.
Guests can choose from four bedrooms to get a restful night’s sleep. The two double bedrooms and two twin rooms are all bright and airy with stylish decor. The home also has three brilliant, modern bathrooms with walk-in showers and chic tiling.
Outdoors, the garden is a green haven where you can unwind in the sun, enveloped by Mediterranean plants and towering trees. There are patios and terraces for guests to dine-alfresco or sunbathe before taking a well-earned dip in the inviting, private pool. If you would like to spend a fun afternoon outside together, then why not play a round of boules before cooking your evening meal on the barbecue.
For a quick dip, the pretty little bay of Marina Di Fiori with its old stone tower and maquis covered headland is under 2km away. This is a tranquil spot for unwinding in the sun and watching the boats from the nearby marina. But just 5km away is the stunning large bay at Cala Rossa where you will find it hard to leave its turquoise water, golden sand and summer beachside restaurants. Not that much further is Plage de Saint Cyprien, another gem of northern Porto Vecchio with clear water and white sand, surrounded by a handful of shops and restaurants. And of course, the world-renowned Palombaggia Beach is only 16km by car.
For restaurants you'll be spoilt for choice with plenty nearby; both the harbour side and Porto Vecchio's old town are just over 5km away, the latter offering plenty of atmosphere with with its old churches, boutique shops and restaurant and cafè terraces.
Breathtaking Bonifacio and its white cliffs is a perfect day out and for the mountains, head to the Ospedale Forest and the Bavella peaks or the mountain villages of the Alta Rocca.

Location
About the surrounding area of Villa ArburiVilla Arburi is located in a private domaine less than 2km from southern Corsica’s gorgeous coastline whilst restaurants, shops and the bustling town of Porto Vecchio can be reached easily.
One of the main attractions for those visiting Corsica are the unrivalled pristine beaches with white sand and shallow waters for swimming. The nearest beach is at Marina di Fiori bay, just less than 2km away next to a private marina. This beach is a lovely, natural sandy beach shaded by trees. There are plenty of other beaches to visit within easy reach, including Grande Plage de Cala Rossa (5km) with its red-coloured sand and rocks, surrounded by woodland. With restaurants next to the beach, you can stay here all day relaxing.
Another great option is Plage de Saint Cyprien (6km), a breathtaking, vast sandy beach which is one of the finest in the area. Saint Cyprien is also renowned for its water sports - you can try windsurfing, jet skiing, snorkelling and hire kayaks to tour the pretty rocky inlets of the shoreline.
Further south, you should also add a day trip to Plage de Palombaggia (16km) to your itinerary. This incredible bay has been ranked by UNESCO as one of the world’s nicest beaches - get there early to avoid the summer crowds.
If you wish to dine out or shop for groceries, you can find a selection of sea-view restaurants and a supermarket close to the marina, which is just 2km away. There are many more restaurants as well as little shops surrounding Saint Cyprien Beach and if you prefer something more low-key, you can tuck into fresh, locally caught seafood at family-owned restaurants along the seafront.
You will discover a wider range of cafes and restaurants in Porto-Vecchio (5.5km), a lively town filled with street-side cafes where you can enjoy a lazy lunch and little bistros for traditional Corsican cuisine. For example, you can try one of the famous charcuterie boards along with a glass of local wine, delicious Corsican cheese and honey or wild boar accompanied by chestnuts.
Porto-Vecchio has lots more to see and do in addition to dining out. You can spend a day shopping in charming boutiques or bartering for fresh produce at market stalls. The town has a rich history seen in its architecture which spans centuries. You can admire Roman structures, medieval churches, the old walls and a citadel built in the 16th century by the Genoese to defend the town from pirate attacks and invading armies. These days you do not have to worry about pirate attacks and can enjoy visiting the fortress and wandering the pretty streets at your leisure. From Porto-Vecchio, you can also head out on an enchanting day trip to the nearby protected group of islands called the Lavezzi Islands, which are a haven for wildlife and filled with stunning walking routes and unspoilt beaches.

Best Suited For: All AgesVilla Arburi is a wonderful base for your Corsican family holiday. Located just a few kilometres from tranquil sandy beaches and near the historic town of Porto-Vecchio, there is plenty to do near the villa without travelling too far by car.
If you would like to treat the kids to an adrenaline-fuelled day out, then why not visit Parc Aventure de Porto-Vecchio, which is 8km away. This large park is great fun for all ages as there are nine tree-top climbing routes to suit all ages, from toddlers to adults. As well as the climbing trails, there are tunnels, slides and zip wires to play on and make memories together. If you are here for lunch, you can dine at the café or pack a picnic to eat at the on-site picnic tables.
Another great attraction is Corsica Park which is near the tree-top park. This is an amusement park with rides to suit everyone in your party. The park opens in the evening during the height of the summer and is lit by bright lights, which kids will love.
