Beautiful place / rude and unhelpful receptionist
Enlarge letters A A Downsize letters A AClean, nice appartment with basic ammenities.
Location
Bay of Santa Giulia is very beautiful. Fantastic view from appartment. Well kept grounds. Beach and restaurant within walking distance.
Difficult to find at night. Not well signposted.
Noticed many other confused drivers in search of the place.
Picturesque and dramatic landscape make the search and trip worthwhile though.
Corsica is one of the most beautyful places in the mediterranean that I have ever visited. Other than one particular person we found the people quite ok to deal with.
We found the receptionist very rude and aggressive. As we encountered a problem that was later easily solved she yelled at us instead of trying to help us or try to find a solution. All our dealings with her were of an unfriendly manner (mildly put). She made me regret to be able to understand the french language.
The minute we were able to talk to someone in our own language, we encountered friendly, helpful service and even the receptionist changed her tone during the length of that conversation. I wish we had come across this internet site beforehand. Our experience with this particular staff member is very much in line with the other reviews and we would have been a little more prepared for what awaited us. Even for English speaking folks it might be a good idea to browse through the other reviews which happen to be in german, as the words "arrogant" and "unfriendly" are spelled pretty much the same.
Gastronomy
Not offered. But a selection of local restaurants at beach close by. Awesome little restaurant under umbrellas at beach that doesn't offer a lot but very delicious risottos and tartares.
Sport & Entertainment
Beautyful Pool. Kids loved it. Tennis courts there but key from reception hard to obtain due to absence of receptionist.
Room
As above. Clean and comfortable. Need to pay for or bring own linnen.
Tips and recommendations
Arrive in daylight. Straight away get the receptionist to contact someone that speaks your language as you are arriving for a holiday and probably would like to be treated with decency and in a welcomming manner. To property owner:
Read through the reviews posted so far and re-think the representation of your property.
