Just a few steps away from the train stop (ask to get off at Lido), and the beach. The beautiful old town is about 15 minutes walk, although there are cafes, restaurants, an ATM and a large supermarket nearby. The supermarket does hot food, which is ideal for a beach picnic. As seems to be the norm in Corsica, they... More

On a visit to Europe from our home in Australia, this was a perfect place to spend a week in early September and to meet up with an old friend from France. We had rooms opening on to the beautiful, well-maintained garden. Hotel staff were friendly and helpful. We chose half board: breakfasts were generous buffet-style and could be eaten... More

From the main road, La Caravelle doesn't look like anything special - positioned next to the railway line at the back of a dusty car park - but step into the pristine gardens and you enter another world. I arrived quite late but was greeted by a friendly receptionist who showed me to my small, but spotlessly clean room on... More

Nice hotel with lovely garden just next to the beach and 5-10min walk to the harbour with all restaurants and bars. Very clean rooms and helpful staff. Hotel restaurant is good as well. We stayed 7 days and didn't have any issues at all or things to complain about. Guests were in general not the youngest (40+) due to the... More

We stayed here for seven nights - 4 half board and 3 breakfast only - and were very impressed. Warm welcome at reception, and when we discovered that a lock on our suitcase had become jammed, a handyman was with us in no time to snip the offending lock. Lovely bathroom, very clean, and our room on the first floor... More

This is a nice hotel right on the beach, only few minutes pleasant stroll along the beach to the town. Our room was very small, but modern and clean, the bathroom was spacious and had a window. Most of the rooms are on the ground floor with a small patio area outside with tables and chairs. It's perfect for families... More

When the travel agent tells you that La Caravelle does not have a pool, but you really don’t need it, since the beach is barely 50 metres away, you have doubts, but you go ahead and book it nevertheless, since you have 2 weeks to go for your vacation, and everything else is booked. But man, is that true! We... More

We stayed in the hotel for 7 days as a family of four including two teenagers. The hotel is quite small with a very pretty large courtyard-style garden. The beach is accessible by crossing a narrow gauge railway which runs along the coast to Bastia. The hotel has its own station and you can use this train to beach hop... More

We needed a hotel for one night as we were catching the SNCM ferry back to Nice the next day. The hotel is attractive and the staff were really nice. The room was modern, clean and had a little patio where you could sit. The beach is next to the hotel and is really close to town. The only minus... More
