In the heart of the Corsican west coast between Ajaccio and the Porto Gulf, Paese di Lava is the ideal starting point for travellers looking for discovery on the l’île de beauté.
At the gateway of the imperial city, our holiday resort is located only 20 minutes from the significant sites of Ajaccio: birth house of Napoleon Bonaparte, the Fesch museum, Genoese quarter of Ajaccio…
For nature lovers, the Lava Gulf is one of Corsica’s best preserved areas. Hiking trails start directly form the resort. The first trail joins the Pelusella Tower located on the norther tip of the gulf, the other winds along the sea cutting through the underbrush to reach the Capo di Feno beach, known as being one of the most primeval beaches of Corsica.
The beach located just below the holiday resort is the starting point of several different sea outings. The boats carry you to the gems of western Corsica: the rocky inlets of the Calanques de Piana, the Scandola Marine & Nature Reserve, the Porto Gulf, Sanguinaires Islands…
Finally, the entertaining activities offered during your stay are mainly focused on the discovery of Corsican culture and local savoir-faire. Weekly, the producers of the region come to meet with you at a nighttime market. On Fridays, the restaurant highlights Corsican specialties at its Spuntinu party: a concept whereby everything you eat is produced within 30km of Ajaccio. You hence contribute to the sustainable development of Corsica while discovering the flavours of the island.
