A ten-minute stroll from the sands of Pianotolli-Caldarello, this home promises modern ease on the coast. There's room to breathe, with four en-suite bedrooms in the main house and the fifth in a separate annexe. Though the heated pool and private boules pitch offer great social spots, you'll also find quiet places for arranging yoga lessons. Don't fancy a one-minute walk to the pizzeria? Hire a chef and enjoy alfresco dining on the terrace. Bonifacio awaits twenty minutes down the road, with a bustling marina and medieval citadel.
