Casadelmar

Jean-François Bodin's weathered cedar facade looks like it grew out of the Corsican hillside, which is either very clever architecture or a remarkable coincidence. Casadelmar is a sleek, design-forward hotel above the Gulf of Porto-Vecchio, where every room terrace faces the bay and the private beach is a short walk down the hill. Le Corbusier chairs, an infinity pool, a spa, and a two-Michelin-starred restaurant on the premises keep the bar where it is. Open late April through early October.
