Vacation Rentals in Ajaccio

The capital of Corsica offers a wide range of holiday accommodation, from apartments in the picturesque alleys of the old town on Place Foch to idyllic vacation rentals with swimming pools on the outskirts of the city. You will also enjoy your stay in a holiday apartment on Quai Napoleon and Port Tino Rossi, from where you can enjoy the view of the ferry port. For those who prefer a quieter atmosphere, there is a family-friendly apartment or vacation rental along the Avenue de la Libération or the Chemin de Torreta, where you can enjoy the Mediterranean panorama from the hills.

Small and big get their money's worth in Ajaccio. Especially the four beautiful beaches Plage de Vignola, Plage de l'Adriadne, Plage de Porticcio and Plage de Ruppione with their fine sand offer ideal conditions for relaxing days at the sea. The citadel of Ajaccio, the Napoleon Museum and the Musée Fesch, which, after the Louvre in Paris, has the largest collection of Italian works of art in the world, provide a change of scenery. The holiday in Ajaccio is rounded off by excursions to Monte Renoso and the Cascades du Voile de la Mariée, the highest waterfalls in Corsica with a drop height of 150 metres.

The programme of events in Ajaccio is characterised by three major highlights. The sailing regatta "Les Régates Imperiales" starts at the end of May or beginning of June, when the Gulf of Ajaccio turns into an open-air maritime museum. Further highlights are the cultural festival "Spring in Ajaccio" and the historical spectacle "Journées Napoléonniennes d'Ajaccio" in August.

A visit to the turtle park A Cupulatta is great fun, especially for the young visitors. But even the "big ones" can learn a lot about the 170 species of turtles that live there on a tour of the park.

Follow in the footsteps of the probably most famous Corsican and start a discovery tour through his birthplace. The "Place Letizia" building houses a top-class exhibition on several floors, illuminating Napoleon's life in all its stages.

The rugged west coast of Corsica is best explored by boat from the port of Ajaccio. Enjoy the ride on the sun deck and go ashore in the bay of Girolata to explore the picturesque pebble beach and the old fort.
