About the property

Inside

accommodation at Tamaricciu is spread over three floors. The main entrance takes one into the ground floor, which is home to two double bedrooms: one with a small double bed and en-suite shower room and a second one with an adjacent shower room. Both these bedrooms have splendid views down to the coast and the sea and large sliding glass doors opening onto a panoramic little terrace. A shared w/c (there is no w/c in the bathrooms) completes the accommodation on the ground floor.

A flight of stairs leads up to the first floor, where guests spend most of their waking hours. Here there is a spacious, light-filled open-plan living and dining area furnished with a pair of sink-in sofas to one end and a dining table to the other. Banks of sliding glass doors access the wonderful wrap-around terrace and pool area and bring in the gorgeous sea views.

Just off the dining area is the well-equipped modern kitchen whose large panoramic picture window above the sink might induce you to actually do the washing up rather than use the dishwasher. The first floor is also home to a laundry room and a guest bathroom.

Another flight of stairs takes you up to the second floor and the remaining bedrooms: a double bedroom with its own en-suite bathroom with tub; a second double and a double-twin sharing a panoramic terrace and a shower room. All three bedrooms on the second floor boast stunning views out to sea. Neither the shared shower room or the en-suite bathroom have a w/c inside but there is a shared w/c accessed from the corridor linking the bedrooms.

Outside

the living room on the first floor spills out onto a large, wrap-around, teak-decked terrace offering incredible views out over the bay of Palombaggia.

There is a sitting area and a shaded dining area served by a barbecue, but the centrepiece is undoubtedly the impressively panoramic infinity pool. The terrace curves around the building to a shaded al fresco dining area served by a barbecue.

The two ground floor bedrooms have access to a small terrace area delimited by Mediterranean shrubs and two of the bedrooms on the second floor share a wonderful sea-view terrace.

About the Area

Tamaricciu is located in the southeast of Corsica, just a few kilometres south of Porto Vecchio, one of the island's most charming towns. Just a few minutes' drive below the villa are some splendid beaches, including the long expanses of white sand and shallow, crystalline waters of Palombaggia and Tamaricciu. A few minutes more in the car heading south and you will arrive at the glorious semi-circular bay and beach of Santa Giulia.

Nearby Porto Vecchio offers a great deal, including a good selection of shops, bars and restaurants and a nice old town centre looking over the large natural harbour.

30km south of Tamaricciu is beautiful Bonifacio, one of Corsica's most dramatically positioned and picturesque towns. Teetering perilously on a high cliff above the sea it offers sublime views over to Sardinia. Meanwhile, just over an hour's drive west is the panoramically positioned, medieval town of Sartène, whose pretty labyrinth of streets gives an idea of Corsican life away from the coastline.

Further afield is the island's capital, Ajaccio, which is well worth a visit, not least so you can say that you've been to the birthplace of the great Napoleon.

Considerations

Tamaricciu features a fantastic infinity pool, offering swimmers stunning views out to sea while in the pool. There is a drop from the infinity edge so we recommend children are supervised at all times. Please refer to our general safety page if you would like more information about infinity pools.

Due to the nature of the property including terraces low walls and several drops around the grounds, children must be supervised at all times.

The number of steps that must be negotiated to get into and/or around this property might make it unsuitable for people with mobility problems.

Tamaricciu is in a residential zone and some areas may be overlooked.

Tamaricciu had great views and was close to the sea, and very functional and comfortable. It's the perfect villa from which to explore the beauty of Corsica. We loved the welcome hamper and goodies too. Nice touch. We would return for the location and the views.

We loved Tamaricciu: stunning views, a beautiful pool and lots of space for all four of us. Also we were close to beaches and restaurants. This is the 3rd villa we have rented through The Thinking Traveller. All have been wonderful experiences. We could not have asked for more! Thank you to these amazing employees who made our trip so amazing!
