9/10 Wonderful! (61 reviews)
Firstly, we are fussy!!! We can honestly say U Capuchin Biancu was faultless. The team were truly superb and looked after anything and everything, The suite was amazing, and the view to the sea stunning. The design of U Capu is shabby chic which we loved over sterile or the mass contemporary hotels popping up everywhere. A real gem.

The best location 5 seconds to a sandy beach. Food is the best in the area (don’t trust old low reviews). Enough of sun beds (important as beach clubs are expensive in Corsica). People are very nice - both hotel and the restaurant
