Marinca

A narrow mountain road off the coast of Propriano deposits you at this luxury resort perched above the sea, far enough from anywhere that leaving feels like a conscious decision. Four pools, a Clarins spa with a hammam and an ice room, a private beach, and the hotel's own boat make a persuasive case for staying put. Rooms in the old Corsican villa lean white and ivory, with Carrara marble bathrooms and terraces facing the water. It holds a Michelin Key.
