Seemingly floating above the hillside from which it rises, Casa di Macine is an ingeniously conceived and ravishingly finished mountain retreat. It is both a triumph of contemporary architecture and an ode to local traditions, where granite, chestnut wood, artisanal know-how and intoxicating vistas combine to capture the essence of the island's ancient landscape. Down below, meanwhile, just a 10-minute drive away, is the sparkling sea of Corsica's east coast.

An illustration of a guest book

Wow! Casa di Macine is the villa with the best view ever! The villa itself is spacious, and beautifully designed, with incredible attention to detail and all the extras: hot tub, gym, sauna, pull down cinema screen. Would we return? Yes, we'd love to go back.

JM September 2025

Casa di Macine is an amazing villa, very welcoming and very spacious. We were there with 9 people and we were never bored or cramped together. Amazing views and stunning pool. We also really loved the style of the villa, with the natural stone continuing on the inside. There was lots to do on Corsica. Our stay was amazing, thank you.

Sophie Tolboom April 2025
