About this property
Architect Villa · Valinco Gulf · 3ha · 8 guests
A contemporary architect-designed villa set on a private 3-hectare estate, Casa Cuntorba overlooks the Gulf of Valinco with a 180° sea view from every room. Less than a kilometre from the first beaches, surrounded by unspoilt Corsican maquis.
Your stay is taken care of from the moment you arrive: personalised welcome at the villa, gourmet basket of local Corsican products, bed linen and towels provided and refreshed throughout your stay, regular cleaning included, concierge service available at all times. Hotel comfort, the freedom of a private villa.
THE PROPERTY
King-size master suite with en-suite bathroom, three flexible bedrooms (beds configurable as singles or doubles to suit your group), two additional bathrooms. Fully equipped kitchen open onto a bright, spacious living room. Room-by-room air conditioning.
Large panoramic terrace recently extended, with a pergola — the
perfect outdoor living space for al fresco dining and evenings overlooking the Gulf of Valinco. Full laundry room (washing
machine, dryer).
High-speed Starlink satellite internet — reliable and stable, suitable for remote work. Beach equipment provided: parasols, towels, bodyboards, full snorkelling sets.
Outdoor games (table tennis, badminton, mölkky, football goals) and board games available.
New in 2026: Corsican and Mediterranean/Levantine cookbooks (Ottolenghi)
BEACHES AND THE REGION
Olmeto's beaches (Tenutella, Scodi Neri, Capicciolo) are less than a kilometre away. Propriano and Porto-Pollo are 15 minutes by car for restaurants, water sports and boat trips. The Gulf of Valinco is home to some of the wildest coves in southern Corsica, reachable by kayak.
For hikers: the Mare e Monti Sud trail passes nearby; the Campomoro Tower and its coastal paths are 30 minutes away; the Bavella Needles and Alta Rocca are an hour's drive.
For history lovers: the neolithic site of Cuntorba is right on the doorstep. Filitosa 25 minutes away, Cauria's standing stone alignments 40 minutes, Bonifacio and the Bouches de Bonifacio
(UNESCO) 1 hour.
New in 2026: A digital guide and phone app providing geolocated recommendations for places to visit, activities, restaurants, and local food and craft producers.
