An island of beauty, read: Corsica. A family vineyard and homemade meals. Rooms nestled among the oaks in the quiet southern part of the island, not far from beaches that look like they belong in the best catalogs. This definition of French relaxation is called: Domaine de Peretti della Rocca.

Here, mornings greet guests with the aroma of freshly brewed coffee and homemade pastries. Local delicacies tempt from breakfast – honey infused with the Corsican sun, jams bursting with fruity sweetness, and chestnut flour cake. In the village of Figari, one can indulge in simple pleasures and carefree holiday vibes. The package includes hiking, reading in the shade of trees, and refreshing dips in the pool. In the evening, the hotel restaurant spoils guests with Corsican cuisine. Dinner with a sunset view. The family winery Jean-Baptiste de Peretti della Rocca invites guests for tastings and strolls, revealing the secrets of island winemaking traditions.

A stay at Domaine de Peretti della Rocca promises regular marvels at the views and an allergic reluctance to return home. Pack your swimsuit, crossword puzzles, sunscreen, and Bon Voyage!
