Les Mouettes Hotel Ajaccio - Corsica

One of Corsica’s first luxury hotels, Les Mouettes Hotel Ajaccio, Corsica, opened during the 1950s inside a converted house constructed in 1880. Today, this intimate villa - just a 15 minute stroll from the heart of Ajaccio town next to the Gulf of Ajaccio - still welcomes guests from around the globe. Ever since the hotel began its last major renovation in 2005, the amount of rooms here has risen from 19 to 28. Sea views can be enjoyed from 21 of these rooms, 16 of these rooms have private balconies, and 2 are suites. Toilets and bathrooms are separate spaces in most guest rooms, which are all individually decorated in contemporary or classical styles. A short climb will lead guests to the inn’s beach, and plastic sandals are available to protect swimmers from the spiky sea urchins that reside here. Although there is no large restaurant, cheese and meat plates are served at the hotel during the day. A water sports club lies just 200m away.

Number of Rooms: 26

Small pets are welcome.
