Very clean and pleasant apartment. No "entertainment" so perfect for a couple like us wanting to relax. Not too many English people, you will need to make an effort with your french language skills, but it's nice not to have to speak to anyone!
Definitely hire a car, though cheaper to do so before through an independent. Supermarket on the way to Porto Vecchio much cheaper than the one near the hotel. Definitely have a drive inland where the restaurants are cheaper.
Beach a short walk away, worth turning left at the beach past a rocky outcrop to another quieter spot where a lovely chap has some sunbeds (reasonably priced for the day) and some balls and inflatables to play in the sea with (if you are 30 going on 13!). Restaurant Pinu (15 mins walk) seven course Corsican menu very nice but HUGE so we shared!

I and my partner stayed in an apartment on this resort. Overall the apartment was lovely, nicely done out and plenty of space for just the two of us; however there was space to sleep 6 in total!
The kitchen was fully equipped; it even had a dishwasher and microwave, as well as a hob, kettle, toaster etc. The only downfall was the bathroom; it was the tiniest space I have ever seen, managing to squeeze a toilet, basin and shower cubicle all in one little square space!
There is supermarket on site which stocks quite a wide range of food, drink, toiletries etc although it is quite expensive. There is a big supermarket a short drive away which is cheaper.
The resort is on a spit and so the beach is quite narrow and so gets very busy very quickly. It was however stunning, white sand and turquoise water - like the Caribbean!
I do recommend that you get a car though to really benefit on this holiday!

If you are a beach lover then this resort is perfect- it has the most amazing beach with crystal clear waters, and despite it getting quite busy during the afternoon, you could still have a relaxing time without being too over crowded.
The hotel/apartment, was clean and very quiet. We had a studio room which was very small, but with a nice balcony. The bathroom was disappointing as it was ridiculously small (only one person in at a time!) but the shower was fantastic.
Cleanliness could not be faulted and location to the beach was superb, with a small supermarket near by.
Choice of places to eat out and drink was extremely limited here as you are quite cut off from going anywhere else. this also seems to effect the prices of eating and drinking out as in Santa Guila it was very expensive.
There is also no real public transport. Taxis have to be pre ordered and it is very advisable to make sure you book a return taxi. We went to Porto Vechio (5miles away) and could not get return transport. We had to walk the whole 5 miles back late at night where street lighting doesnt exist- i would not recommend that.
On the whole we had a very relaxing holiday, but there really was not that much to do and it was very expensive.
