Hotels near Calvi – Sainte-Catherine Airport - CLY, Calvi

Calvi is a small fortress citadel surrounded by shops and restaurants and everywhere is walking distance. Everyone spoke English but were kind about my schoolboy French. Lots of beach and restaurants on the beach easily accessible by walking the beach or the boardwalk set back by the small train line. Diving trips and boat cruises abound (our sunset cruise had dolphins !!!) as well as tours into the mountains to visit picturesque villages. We had an evening concert in the Cathedral of Polyphonic singers, very moving. Try the local train to get to beaches along the northwest coast, very relaxed.

Lovely old town and harbour and marina with bars and restaurants but expensive. 9 euros for 500ml beer. Main courses mostly over 20 euros plus Not easy for people with mobility problems as steep round the citadel and harbour. Not much choice for vegetarians except pizza pasta and salads. A nightmare for vegans!

Charming little place where the port joins the town and there plenty of good restaurants to choose from, the old town is pleasant to walk through and we found the people very friendly. Its all very pretty plus threes a good Citadel as well. We have the Moules which were excellent and as a starter the Local Charcutterie Fab

We loved Sun beach and hired sunbeds right on the beach under the restaurant for 3 days. The village was very cute with interesting shopping and great restaurants. We also enjoyed walking around the small harbour. Calvi has a fabulous supermarket (Super U) along the main street opposite the sea. The views of the mountains in Calvi is nothing short of spectacular. We also enjoyed the 30 min drive along the coast to L'lle Rousse and found a little pebble beach all to ourselves. A week is definitely not enough time in Corsica

We were there early November. Not ideal time of the year, it was sunny though! Property is in town near the water,, in downtown. Can walk to citadel, shops, restaurants, the marina. Lots of shops and restaurants were closed: next time I would go in May, June or Sept, Oct. The whole area is beautiful!

Loved it ! City centre is well preserved with paved streets and stairs allowing you to move around easily and reach the Port where there are plenty of bars and restaurant with a stunning view over the sea and the mountains. Beaches are 5 mns walk from the port. Calvi has managed to keep its authenticity throughout the years and is a perfect location for a long week-end escape !
