Great Location and well equipped villa
This is the best equipped of the 9 villa properties we have rented in Europe since 2010. It has 4 excellent bathrooms, good a/c and is more than spacious internally. The pool area is excellent with good ares of shade and the property is most convenient for Ajaccio airport and Porticcio with a nearby supermarket, many restaurants and an excellent butcher , baker and fishmonger amongst other shops. In particular we found the Alto Vista an excellent restaurant, Le Club great for coffee and bread and the "posh" butcher excellent if expensive. The fishmonger next to Carrefour is also excellent but v expensive. We felt the property externally needs quite a bit of love and attention to bring it to the same standard as the interior with a wild garden that is rather too wild and attention needed to get the terrace etc into a tidy state but these are relatively small points and could be swiftly remedied if the owner chose to invest in some garden assistance. We also felt the cleaning regime was not clear and we certainly saw little if any of the property manager in the 2 weeks and we had to ask for sheets to be changed at the end of 1 week despite only one of the bedrooms being occupied for the first week!! We felt that a clear written statement of what the cleaner does and does not do in the 2 weeks would have been helpful. Overall this is a very well appointed villa in a very good location with excellent beaches nearby and with a very straightforward connection to the airport; happy to recommend it and with some small attention to detail we felt the property could become an excellent choice...

Lovely spacious family home with great views
We had a lovely stay in Porticcio at Jane's fantastic house. It is very spacious and easily accommodated 8 of us (2 families, each with 2 young children aged 5, 6, 7 and 7). The house feels like a real home rather than a rental property which made it far more appealing than most places. The rooms are nicely kitted out with very comfy beds and en-suite bathrooms (except one room which has a bathroom next door), and the air conditioning is very effective which was a godsend for the nights! The bathrooms are all nicely done and feel clean, whilst the kitchen has everything you need and plenty of the condiments and basics that annoying to have to buy at other rental properties. Outside, the pool area is brilliant - the pool is a nice temperature for the kids to enjoy (maybe slightly warm for the dads but the kids and mums all thought it was perfect!) and the area around the pool provided plenty of space for some cricket (although the garden also provides ample scope for lost balls...!) as well as plenty of shaded areas for lounging. Jane (the owner) is exceptionally responsive and provided all the information that we needed in advance, as well as responding to queries whilst we there. The pool cleaning system broke on one day and she immediately got the repair men out to fix it which was greatly appreciated. Porticcio is great - easy walk down to the beach and the shops (5-10 mins at kids pace) where there are various restaurants and supermarkets (Carrefour is the obvious choice, but there is also a very expensive butchers and fishmonger if you want to splash out - for meat, it is actually better to go to the Spar which is further out of Porticcio as they have a proper butcher on site (compared to Carrefour which wasnt great for meat) selling meat at better prices). Porticcio also has a GP surgery that you can walk into without appointments (also 5 min walk from house) as we unfortunately had to use! There are so many beaches to visit - our favourites were Ruppione and Plage d'Argent. Both have excellent restaurants on the beach for lunch. There are also lots of beach toys in the garage that we were able to borrow so no need to pack buckets and spades in your luggage! All in all, a great place for a holiday that we would heartily recommend and which we hope to return to at some point.

Great Villa and perfect location
The 6 of us stayed for 2 weeks (and glad we did so) in the villa. Each bedroom has space and storage, and an attached bathroom, very much like newer houses in the US. The living room/dinning room area is very spacious and comfortable; and the kitchen is well equipped. Also of note for long stays: a washing machine in the garage, very useful. The added points of the Villa: a nice out door/back yard, dinning/relaxing area (I really enjoyed taking my coffee in the morning sitting and watching the sea and the mountains) and the lower level with the pool and the cabana. Location, location, location: so convenient. One can go to one of the 2 beaches just walking; or grocery shopping the same way. Also very close to some front beach restaurants/ice cream parlors. It is also well located if you want to explore the island: we drove to Calvi, Ajaccio, Bonifaccio, Bastelica , Filitosa, etc. A lot to do and see. Jane, the owner, was very responsive and helpful, and ensured our stay was as we planned it. We will certainly consider going back for another summer vacation.

Gorgeous Villa near lovely seaside village in Corsica
My family of 7 just spent a wonderful week in this villa in Porticcio. Communication with the property owner Jane was welcoming, friendly and informative from the time of booking to the end of our holiday. There are so many highlights of this property ! The bedrooms were lovely with comfy beds, ceiling fans and air con, and each with an en suite or own bathroom Outside we spent many hours chatting at the table whilst staring at the view of the garden, sea and mountains beyond, or lounging by the beautiful pool. There are plenty of spaces to relax and chill . The kitchen was very well equipped when we felt like cooking, or it was an easy 5-10 minute walk into the village to one of the many seaside restaurants . Ajaccio is 20 minute ferry ride away. All in all a perfect holiday in a fabulous villa, one which I’m very happy to recommend

Perfection in Porticcio
Fabulous villa, spacious and comfortable, equipped with everything you could want. The pool is excellent, clean and heated, the outside spaces offer a choice of seating and dining areas. Jane the owner is a pleasure to communicate with, as it is her own island home, and she goes to great lengths to ensure your stay is the best it could be. The town and main beach are within 5 minutes' walk, as is the main Carrefour supermarket. A car isn't essential, but I would recommend one in order to explore other nearby beaches. We particularly enjoyed plage Ruppione, which had a few waves enough for playing in or gentle surfing. The boat navette to Ajaccio is a must, on which you may see dolphins, it's the easy way to visit the town.

Great, well equipped house with beautiful view, perfect for two families. Lovely pool.
We were 4 adults and 4 children, aged 9-12 and have really enjoyed a week in this lovely villa with ample space both indoor and outdoor. The house is within walking distance from shops, a beach and restaurants which is very convenient. However, most days we drove 15-20 minutes to find better beaches ( not difficult!). We enjoyed dinner out in Porticcio a couple of nights and also enjoyed cooking in the well equipped kitchen ( and barbecue).The owner is very helpful and service minded and for us who do not speak French it was very convenient with a British owner. The house was clean and nice, but the outdoor area could perhaps have benefitted from a bit more attention. A couple of nights there was quite load music and laser shows from local night clubs, which may disturb some people, but we were OK with it and it never disturbed any sleep. All in all, very happy with the stay!

Three generations able to enjoy time together and separately in homely surroundings. Plenty of things to do for all ages combined with relaxation and the ideal environment for water babies like our grandchildren.

Wish we had the time to stay longer
Our third annual visit and it gets more comfortable and relaxing each time. Even our 6 year old granddaughter was trying to persuade us that she needed another week here. It is a home rather than an impersonal holiday let which helps you to settle; we even had a discussion over a lunch about what day it actually was! If annual leave allowances were greater and the adults' schedules could be co-ordinated, it would be hard to resist a longer break. Thank you Jane & Brigitte for your usual standard of hospitality and care.

A beautiful family home .
The villa we stayed in was very clean and spacious ,each bedroom was very comfortable and had a lovely bathroom and shower with masses of hot water. The villa had lots of equipment we could use from bikes and table tennis table to docking stations for i phones. The great thing about the kitchen was that it had lots of utensils we could use and was stocked with basic things such as salt and pepper, herbs and cooking oil that we could use and replace . Brigitte was very helpful when we arrived and also when we had a minor problem after the thunder storm . The village had some good shops and a big supermarket , a lovely clean beach that had lots of activities for water sports. We also took the ferry over to Ajaccio and had a wander around the town and visited the Cathedral and Nelsons house.

Beautiful spacious villa, a real home from home. Highly recommend for a relaxing holiday.
Stunningly beautiful villa with amazing views of the sea and mountains, equipped with everything you could possibly need. We had a lovely relaxing time with our three teenage boys as there was plenty for them to do - table tennis, pool, water sports and swimming at the beach. The villa is very clean and all the beds were super comfortable with plenty of areas to relax in either the sun or shade. The owner goes to great lengths to make sure you enjoy your stay and answer any questions. I can't recommend this villa highly enough if you want a relaxing villa/beach based holiday with guaranteed gorgeous weather!

We loved our stay. The proximity of the town, beaches and shops meant we only used the car to stock up on heavier items. A brilliant time had by six teenagers and two now very relaxed adults! I'd highly recommend stating here. Jane was so helpful in sending out lots of information before our stay which made things really easy once we were there. A brilliant time which I wish could've been longer!

Exceptional Villa
I cannot recommend this villa highly enough. It was by far the best villa we have ever stayed in. The location was perfect, the villa itself was fitted out to a very high standard. The owner's attention to detail was fantastic. All the separate seating areas gave so many options for relaxing, especially with three generations staying together. The kitchen was SO well equipped and the fact that all oils/spices/tea/coffee and cleaning materials were left for the guests was a lovely touch. We have never had that before, and it made things so much easier. The resort was perfect, not too busy but with lots of shops and restaurants and the ferry to Ajaccio was great. Jane the owner went out of her way to make sure we had everything we might need, as I was travelling with my disabled mother. HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommended

Komfortable Ferienvilla mit persönlichem Flair für die große Familie
Sehr schönes Haus mit allen Annehmlichkeiten wie Klimatisierung, großer, gut ausgestatteter Küche, schönen Bädern, mehreren schöne Terrassen und einem schönen Pool, das Ganze in guter Lage zum Meer und mit tollem Blick über die Bucht von Ajaccio und auf die Berge Korsikas. Die Kommunikation mit der Besitzerin war sehr angenehm und hilfreich. Angenehm auch die persönliche Note im Haus durch die geschmackvolle Ausstattung und die vielen persönlichen Gegenstände (Bücher, Spielsachen, DVDs, Sportutensilien, Fahrräder etc.), die großenteils genutzt werden konnten. Positiv ist die Nähe zum Meer mit mehreren Stränden zur Auswahl und zu Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und zu Sporteinrichtungen (Tauschschule, Bootsverleih etc.). Einzige Einschränkung: Das Lage des Hauses ist nicht ruhig. Weniger die nahe Hauptdurchgangsstrasse war störend, sondern vor allem die laute Discomusic jede Nacht bis morgens um vier, wodurch man nur mit geschlossenen Fenstern schlafen konnte. Trotzdem, alles in allem ein sehr schönes Feriendomizil, welches wir sehr genossen haben.
