The hotel staff very nice, helpful and friendly. Special thanks to Sophie for helping us with the room when needed because of a hiccup with the ferry coming from Sardinia and also to Jacques for all the tips and info. The room was spacious with a balcony offering a splendid view of the pool, sea and the lush vegetation. The location of the hotel is perfect, in a quiet area about 2 mi away from the center of Ajaccio, but you can reach it by a bus which has a stop about 300 ft away from the hotel. The beach is right in front of the hotel, plenty of restaurants along the the beach within a walking distance. The hotel offers a bar opened 24h with drinks and snakes and the rich breakfast at an extra price is worth it. Close to the city with a resort feeling.

We liked EVERYTHING about the hotel. The location was fabulous, 20 minutes taxi from the airport, 2 minutes walk from lovely beach! We were greeted, very warmly, by Lasheka & others at reception. I had made an unusual request for a large number of pillows to help me sleep even with my spinal injuries. This was handled with precision: something that most hotels have failed to do for me in the past. This small, independent hotel, however, treated me as if nothing was too much trouble, which is how it should be, imho. The remainder of our stay, although sadly short, continued in a wonderful, comfortable way and was aided by the truly fantastic hospitality from everyone at the hotel. We were located in a quiet spot, set back from the main coastal route which was inaudible in our superior seaview room, due to the fabulous & thoughtful design of the garden, the perfect distance set back distance. All night, with our windows open, we could hear the waves lapping on the beach but no traffic noises at all. Our room was a very good size, the bed was comfortable, spacious, supportive & firm without being as stiff as a board. The shower in the en suite was superb. The pool was beautiful: enough quality sunbeds around the surrounding deck and the glass curtain around it all kept out all the sounds of outside life and any sneaky winds coming in from the Sea were also rebuffed. We spent many happy times here. There were plenty of restaurants within walking distance, providing fresh fish &: seafood, wood-fired barbeques preparing excellent meat dishes. Our ABSOLUTE FAVOURITE of all of these was the Texas Cafe. Whether it was an inventively prepared avocado toast for lunch, a perfectly marinated chicken skewer, the slowly-cooked, melt in the mouth tender ribs or the flavorsome, expertly cooked Charolais sirloin steak, the food was absolutely brilliant. As an experienced chef-restaurateur of 30 years experience, since I retired I've enjoyed some great places.

Going home.....,

The hotel is beautiful with a gorgeous pool area and sea views. The staff were lovely and very helpful. The room was spacious with comfy beds and very clean. A/C is available. Breakfast at €14 and the room price were good value for money. We will definitely use the hotel again.

The room was a bit dated, and the car park gets full, although we were able to park on the road outside the hotel. The hotel does not have a restaurant, only serving breakfast and snacks, and there is not much around for food. So planning where to have dinner is a must.

This hotel is really lovely with very clean and comfortable rooms and all of the staff we met were so friendly and helpful. The quadruple room is great for families with kids. The pool area and gardens are beautiful and there is beach access directly across the road. There are nice restaurants within walking distance and the hotel breakfast was delicious. This is a good location for exploring Ajaccio - you can get the bus into the city centre from just outside the hotel if you prefer not to drive. I'd love to go back and see a little more of this part of Corsica.

Very beautiful garden and pool and sea view. very friendly staff and great location with a beautiful beach. not too far from the city center but still enough distance to get relax in. quiet area.

Room cleaning service quite late during the day where we would like to spend 1-2 hours resting time in the room. So we didn’t use it even though it would have been necessary at least once during our 3-nights stay.

The location of hotel was good , nice pool with sunbeds and big grassed area with some sunbeds and timber decks with lounges etc . Beyond the grass area is an access door to walk across road to the beach. We also walked to the Italian restaurant and the Mexican restaurant down the road both were very good. Our room was the standard small room, we tried to upgrade but no availability. The room was very small and the hotel is L shaped at the back. So our view was over a house and beach in background, whereas the larger rooms overlook the pool and beach in background. If I stayed again , I would definitely pay for larger rooms. The staff were so nice and helpful, we didnt have breakfast , but most mornings after breakfast there were pastries on the bar for all to eat. The bar area was great, we took our drinks outside, to the pool and to the grassed area. A very nice area to relax. Parking provided out the back. Overall it was a lovely relaxed stay.

The standard small room , was small and view not as good as the larger rooms that have pool area views towards the ocean. Most of the time we werent in our room, so we enjoyed the facilities

It was wonderful to have direct beach access approx 10 steps from hotel All staff were incredibly friendly & professional, and always happy to provide advice about local area and further afield. Breakfast options were really good with both hot and cold options with great views of the beach and pool The room was large and the balcony views amazing!! Close proximity to great restaurants and walking area with great snack bar options available

Due to travelling with young child, we would have preferred room service option and laundry services on site

Amazing location with a nice pool and the beach just 2 minute walk away. The garden is very nice to relax in the shade with a coffee. The staff is super friendly. They also sell small salades for lunch. The airco in the room is really nice. Restaurants are just 5 min drive away, or you can pick 2 nice restaurants just in front of the hotel at the beach. Bring your snorkle to see the fish. Thanks so much La Pinède for a lovely stay.

A lovely hotel just a few minutes outside of downtown. The pool is wonderful and the staff are very kind and helpful. There are two great restaurants just across the street. There is great hiking just a short drive from the hotel with spectacular views of the coast and one of old towers that dot the Corsican coastline.

The hair dryer in the room is horrible, but the front desk provided a nice substitute dryer.

Fantastic location with local bus into centre of Ajaccio. Great view with good pool. Easy car parking and lots of outdoor seating in the sun and shade.

The room had lots of mosquitos when checking in. The staff request for the windows to be left open when checking out which would make sense why there were lots of mosquitos
