Between turquoise waters and wild landscapes, Corsica is an island of striking contrasts. AEC Collection offers a curated selection of exceptional villas and apartments all around the island, from the untamed south to the historic north, from paradisiacal beaches to hilltop villages.
The Island of Beauty, from one cape to another
Ajaccio
Corsica’s capital and imperial city, Ajaccio brings together Napoleonic history with Mediterranean ease of living. Its bay, Genoese alleyways, urban beaches (Saint-François, Trottel) and the Sanguinaires road trace a city that is both elegant and welcoming.
A major resort in the south, Porto-Vecchio is centred around its Genoese citadel and picture-postcard beaches: Palombaggia, Santa Giulia, Rondinara. The town is the epicentre of a coastline punctuated by unspoilt coves and estates set within the maquis.
Suspended above its white limestone cliffs at the far south, Bonifacio is one of the most iconic silhouettes of the Mediterranean. The medieval citadel, natural harbour, Lavezzi Islands and nearby archipelago make the town a point of unique significance.
At the heart of the Valinco gulf, Propriano combines a lively harbour with perfumed hills. The resort offers one of the finest anchorages in the south and provides access to the beaches of Cupabia, Campomoro and the prehistoric site of Filitosa nearby.
Between Bonifacio and Figari, Pianottoli-Caldarello remains one of the most preserved corners of southern Corsica. Its white sand beaches (Chevanu, Caldarello) edge a coastline of granite and maquis, away from the main tourist influx.
Figari is home to Figari South-Corsica airport, the main gateway to the island’s south. The village and its hinterland offer an authentic rural setting, ideal for those wishing to step away from beach resorts whilst remaining just 15 minutes from Porto-Vecchio and Bonifacio.
The island’s economic capital, Bastia retains the dignity of a Genoese town shaped by centuries. Its Citadel, Old Harbour, baroque churches and Cape Corsica within reach make it an ideal base for exploring Upper Corsica.
At the heart of Balagne, Calvi is one of the most sought-after destinations in the north. Its Genoese citadel, its 5km bay of fine sand, its lively port and rolling hinterland (Pigna, Sant’Antonino) make it a benchmark for a Corsican summer.
Just minutes from Calvi, L’Île-Rousse takes its name from the red granite islets that frame its harbour. Daily covered market, sandy beaches, access to the Balagne Railway … The town combines authentic Corsica with seaside charm in a more intimate format than Calvi.
