Tucked away in one of the Gulf of Porto-Vecchio?s most peaceful coves, the Grand Hotel de Cala Rossa has been living its ?refined family-estate life? for over four decades now.

Nestled in the heart of a privately owned park, along the pristine expanse of a powder-soft sand beach, this Eden has ensured the continuous upkeep of knowledge on how to warmly welcome an international clientele and endless generations in a manner to suit all. It is your atypical hideaway by excellence, renovated in time with the gentle passing of Time. A location with heart-warming ambience, elegance and refinement, where souvenirs leaping up from the past melt in unusual harmony with modernity.

The Cala Rossa is also the promise of a sumptuous meal. It is with talent and expert sleight of hand that Pascal Cayeux and Francis Péan combine and pair the best of this provincial region?s produce, with their daily pickings from our very own organic garden patch. Their lunch menus are served at the water?s edge, and for the most part offer healthily grilled, or wok-style options. In the evening the tables are set under the stars, surrounded by hundred-year old pines, for a gastronomical, Michelin-starred journey conducted by the very tastes and smells of the South.

One of our highest-rated homemade rituals: to walk barefoot, whilst the rest of the hotel is still fast asleep, along the 2km expanse of our beach, and to be rewarded upon your return with our breakfast?something of a Sunday brunch every morning. And, topping it all, is the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity of sleeping in a tree house looking over the beach and our gardens. Nestled in the trunk of a pine tree, fashioned entirely out of various woods, this is a cozy and intimate setting. Sleep is guaranteed by the soft serenade of the waves below, and your awakening, by the charming family of chickadees that resides in the branches with you...
