Great family holiday villa in southern Corsica.
We stayed in Ajaccio in June 2023. The villa is spacious and was ideal for our group of seven adults. Beautiful weather and warm temperatures meant that eating outside was routine. Very good, clean pool, that we used a lot. Excellent views of the sea and coast. It was useful to be just a short distance out of Ajaccio. Quieter and still convenient to get into the city. Multi-level villa with airconditioning in most of the bedrooms. Fans in the very large lounge. Well appointed generally with a great charcoal barbeque. Rubbish collection at the gate but recycling needs to go down the road to the bins. All in all an excellent location from which to explore the whole region.

About the host

Hosted by Sheila Smertnik

Host profile image
We are a family with 2 grown children (34 and 30), and now two grand - children who all live abroad.. We are all French ; I am originally from Canada, and our children live abroad so we have a fairly international family,.
We all have quite diifferent occupations: my husband in finance,and teaching myself in the automotive sector, my son in hotel investment and my daughter in development consulting .
We are therefore very happy to spend time all together with family and friends in our villa in Ajaccio

Why they chose this property

We first discovered Corsica from the sea, having made many cruises around the island. Enchanted by its beauty, we wanted to get to know the island better. ,. Ajaccio is a wonderful city , as it is lively and pretty in summer of course, but also throughout the year., and our house is very welcoming . Our children love the island and the house, and come as often as they can. My son even chose Ajaccio and the Route des Sanguinaires for his wedding, and the beauty and magic of the place as well as the Corsican hospitality , contributed greatly to the event's success. Our house is therefore part of our family history, and we come back every time with the same pleasure
We would be very happy to have the opportunity to introduce you to the house , its location , its atmosphere, and the nbeauty of Ajaccio and Corsica

What makes this property unique

Alba Marina is a very pleasant and welcoming house.. It is spacious and cool with a magnificent view of the pool, the sea beyond , and the bay of Ajaccio with sailboats and ferries criss-crossing in the distance The villa has the unique advantage of being close to town, (, with everything you might need available nearby) while minutes away from a protected wilderness area
You can spend time at the pool, on the terrace just outside the house, or under the large palm tree in the garden. You can go swimming at sea many times as you want and for as much time as you like, since the beach is is a 2 minute walk away.
You can have lunch in the shade on the terrace ,, or if you don’t feel like cooking, go to the nearby beach restaurants,” Le Goeland “or “The Weekend “-. In the evening cocktails under the palm tree before dining under a starry sky at home , or going to test the cuisine in the retaurants along the sea , or in Ajaccio.
There are enchanted days to spend just in and around the house. ,to which you can add sports, cultural, and tourist activities
For sport, there is swimming, windsurfing, running or walking to the Sangunaires Nature Park reputed for the most beautiful sunsets .There are tennis courts nearby, and the possibility of boating kayaking jet skiing, paddleboard.
.You can go on excursions in the mountains, or visit other beaches For culture and tourism ,you can go down town, , visit the market, go shopping, visit the museums . !
So the house in itself makes for a wonderful stay, , and in addition can act as a base for the activities you prefer.
