The Don César will speak to your adventurous side by allowing you to discover places only accessible by boat and to visit the loveliest beaches in the very south of Corsica, including Palombaggia Bay, Santa Ciulia Bay, the Gulf of Porto Novo, the Îles Cerbicales, the Gulf of Sant’Amanza, the Îles Lavezzi, the Strait of Bonifacio with its cliffs and grottos, and the Maddalena Archipelago.

The hotel can provide you with tailor-made rental options with or without skipper. Our skipper, well liked by all our clientèle, is an added bonus who will help you to better appreciate Corsica, from its beaches to its wild creeks.

SAIL THE TURQUOISE WATERS
Rentals are made directly from the hotel’s private pontoon. The following quality boats are available: Capelli Tempest (7 m, 8 pers. maximum, with or without skipper), Capelli Tempest (9 m, 12 pers. maximum, with or without skipper), Chris Craft (9 m, 8 pers. maximum, skipper compulsory) and Magazzu MX 11 (11 m, 12 pers. maximum, skipper compulsory).

AROUND PORTO VECCHIO
With a stay at Hotel Don César in Porto Vecchio, all the most prestigious destinations in Southern Corsica are within reach.

A highly sought-after destination for holiday-makers, Porto Vecchio and the surrounding region are home to magnificent landscapes between the sea and the mountains, the forests and natural reserves, the sheltered coves and heavenly beaches.

Southern Corsica is full of natural treasures, prehistoric sites and a rich architectural heritage that you must visit if you want to properly get to know the island.

During your stay with us, make sure you take a trip to admire the Aiguilles de Bavella red granite rocks, also known as the Cornes d’Asinao, an hour’s drive from the hotel. Bavella is one of the most stunning Corsican mountain landscapes.

It is both a massif, a pass and a forest – a majestic site which seems to bring together all the idiosyncrasies of Corsican landscapes, with its extravagant, brightly coloured rocky formations that go from the lightest of reds to the darkest of greys, and its vast laricio pine forest.

The Bavella mountain chain is a big draw for amateurs of trekking (with the famous GR20 path at the foot of the massif), climbing and canyoning. It peaks at an altitude of almost 1,900 m, linking the west of the island to the east.

To the south of Porto Vecchio, 30 minutes’ drive from the Don César, you will find a little gem at the far south of Corsica: Bonifacio. Surrounded by an emerald sea, Bonifacio, the southern-most commune in France, is full of precious treasures.

Protected by its high cliffs, the Citadel, built on a stunning limestone headland, proudly dominates the sea, where the Strait of Bonifacio separates Corsica from Sardinia.

With its rich history which can be traced back to Neolithic times, Bonifacio has been the site of events which have left their mark on the town with its places of worship, medieval architecture, military installations and port. Not to be missed!

DISCOVER PORTO VECCHIO
Known as the “City of Salt” (it was once famous for its salt manufacturing), Porto Vecchio is a must-visit destination for any type of stay. With its vestiges of the past, breath-taking landscapes, and stunning beaches, this corner of Southern Corsica is a little diamond shining in the Gulf of Porto Vecchio.

Easy to reach by land (there are several roads), sea (one of the best mooring locations on the eastern coast of Corsica), or plane (with Figari airport nearby), the town is located deep in a shimmering bay between Bonifacio, the southern-most point of Corsica, and the Côte des Nacres, a small region on the eastern coast of the island.

The hotel, 1.5 km from the centre of Porto Vecchio, gives you easy access to this many-faceted seaside resort. Once you reach Place de la République, in the centre of the old town, set off to discover the citadel with its ramparts, five bastions, Genoise tiled gate, paved streets, and shaded squares.

Below the ramparts, the marina is particularly busy in summer, as is the entire town, both by day and by night. The town centre is also known for its boutique shops which stay open until midnight in the high season.

If you’re feeling lively, have a drink, and then head to one of the clubs which host some of the world’s biggest DJs. Sheltered from all this bustle, Hotel & Spa Don César is the ideal place to retire to after adventures in Porto Vecchio.

SANTA GIULIA BEACH
This is also one of the most famous beaches in Southern Corsica. At the end of the magnificent, lagoon-like Bay of Santa Giulia, its white sands stretch out for miles on end. Its shallow, crystalline waters make it an idyllic location for visitors of all ages.

The beach has as much to offer those simply looking to lounge in the sun as it does those more adventurous holiday-makers seeking the excitement of outdoor activities.

PALOMBAGGIA BEACH
This is without doubt the most famous beach in Corsica. Opposite the Cerbicale islands, and surrounded by red rocks, this sumptuous white sandy beach stretches out at the foot of the dunes where the stone pines grow.

The water shimmers with turquoise, navy and amethyst hues. It is also a great beach for families, as the water remains shallow.

ST CYPRIEN & PINARELLO BEACHES
St Cyprien beach, one of the most beautiful in Corsica, is located by the town of Lecci, to the north of the Domain of Cala Rossa, famous for its celebrity guests.

The 2 km long Pinarello beach is sure to delight with its white sands and stone pine forest. Like with all of the aforementioned beaches, the shallow waters make it ideal for bathers of all ages.

Nestled in a secluded cove along the Gulf of Porto-Vecchio, the Grand Hotel de Cala Rossa has lived like a family house for four decades.

In the heart of a luxurious private peninsula, along a white sandy beach, this Eden has successfully perpetuated a long tradition of hospitality, attracting international guests of all generations.

After undergoing major renovations, the hotel is a truly unique place, a friendly, elegant and refined retreat, blending heritage and modernity.

A beautiful family-owned hotel that stands on the Cala Rossa peninsula, with the sea lapping at its feet along a vast sandy beach. A timeless fairy-tale setting with a warm atmosphere that wonderfully combines letting go, relaxing, and regenerating.

A select address right on the bay of Porto-Vecchio, owned by the same family and handed down from generation to generation. A charming location to rediscover how to “take the time to live”, while enjoying an exceptional property.

GREEN THINKING AT CALAROSSA
Nature is omnipresent at Cala Rossa, so it is only natural for us to make protecting the environment a real priority.

It is also a unique opportunity to get all of our employees involved in setting up a sorting system for recycling, being more energy efficient, redesigning gardens and creating an organic vegetable garden, and also buying from responsible and local sources as much as possible.

Your help is also essential to reduce waste in all its forms. Thanks to your efforts, we have already been able to significantly reduce the number of laundry loads, but there is still a long way to go.

In today’s world, it is certainly hard to imagine giving up the comfort of air-conditioning. But far too often, windows are left open and rooms temporarily empty with air conditioners running… Apart from the negative impact on appliance systems, such actions lead to a generally unacceptable situation.

Our facilities make it possible to cool down your space in just 15 minutes if all guidelines are followed. Thank you in advance for your vigilance. Greater awareness of ecological issues also led us to create our natural cosmetics brand, NUCCA.

To respect the health of our customers and therapists, we made the choice to ban all chemicals in making our brand, and opted to source the ingredients for our cosmetics from an exceptionally preserved natural environment in Corsica. The toiletry items placed in the room are packaged in recyclable containers.

The marine environment is another area that must be respected and protected. After almost two decades of absence, molluscs and sea urchins have returned to the Gulf of Porto-Vecchio. On our own small scale, we want to help to protect marine fauna and preserve bathing water quality.

Guests can join us in this ambitious mission during their stay. This is why we ask that guests not use traditional sunscreens containing chemical filters and nanoparticles.

For smokers, there is an excellent selection from Cuba. And during concert events, or for evenings when you feel a little peckish, you can prolong the pleasure by choosing piattini, plates to share, accompanied by excellent local wines.

The beach bar
On the waterfront, entirely built from wood, it’s the place to be! For a morning coffee, facing the sea as the bay slowly awakens, for a peaceful look at the day’s news, for a large glass of rosé on ice at aperitif time, for gourmet and ice-cold teatime treats, for a coupe of champagne at sunset.

La Tisanerie

“So green”! The warm beverages are served in small, stylish thermos flasks, while recyclable cups and straws are used for the cold refreshments. The gentle magic of these blends offers relaxation, purification and properties to boost slimming and blood circulation.

Le Chef
PASCAL CAYEUX
At Cala Rossa, gastronomy is a four-hand art, headed by Chef Pascal Cayeux and assisted by Sébastien Chauchat. This powerful and talented duo is keen on reinventing daily new delicious recipes, inspired by the Mediterranean cuisine and their morning pick at the hotel’s private garden. With a success recipe of their own : authenticity, seasonal products and simplicity.

Le chef pâtissier
FRANCIS PEAN
For three decades now, Francis Péan’s delicious deserts have seduced the most demanding palates. He really loves his island and selects the best ingredients with the utmost attention (honey, citruses, hazelnut) and takes his inspiration from the hotel’s herb garden.

CALA ROSSA’S GARDEN OF EDEN
Cala Rossa’s kitchen garden is quite simply amazing. A paradise of vegetation a few metres from the kitchens, encouraging and enhancing gourmet creativity.

Landscape architect Philippe Niez, a poet of the senses and the emotions, was inspired by the Mediterranean basin’s outstanding natural environment to design a deliciously sensual and prolific garden.

Surrounded by mimosa and tamarisk, lavender and fig trees stand side by side with aromatic herbs, tomatoes, aubergines, rocket, mangetout and a multitude of other species.

The aim is to attract pollinating insects, with a method that uses straw and compost to protect the soil microfauna, obtaining an entirely organic vegetable garden. The rewards are apparent, since this kitchen garden has become a marvellous setting for meditation and exploration.

The oyster flavoured mertensia maritima grows here, along with turmeric, ginger and Sichuan pepper; at the end is a circle of citrus teas (citron, kaffir lime, limequat, Buddha’s hand fruit and the rare finger lime, or citrus australasica…)

Before sunset, the chef’s assistants appear as if in a culinary dream to gather borage flowers, herba-barona thyme, lesser calamint, raspberries and wild strawberries to complement the chefs’ dishes.

PORTO-VECCHIO
Porto Vecchio is Corsica’s third biggest town.
It is ideally located between sea and mountain, bordered on the east by the Tyrrhenian Sea and on the west by the Ospedale and Cagna mountains.

The slogan “city of salt” is sometimes used, with the presence of salt marshes that are still active adjacent to the harbour. Surrounded by 4 bastions, the upper town, with its cosy small bars and elegant boutiques, hosts ongoing cultural and leisure activities during the summer months.
