Vue magnifique de la terrasse, Juste à traverser la route pour aller se baigner à la mer, tout est propre, la piscine est sympa, le cadre est sublime. Stéphane, le patron, est juste adorable et serviable, ainsi que toute sa petite famille. Baby foot, Ping Pong, demandez, c'est installé ! Les canadairs qui passent s'entrainer, volent à quelques mètres au dessus de vous, c'est impressionnant le matin. Les commerces à côté, les restaurants en face à pied, le choix est vaste. Attention aussi à tous les cochons sauvages qui se promènent sur la route, sans avoir peur des voitures. La promenade en mer, journée complète pour visiter les calanques de piana, à ne pas rater, le paysage est juste magique. Hors saison égal moins de monde, 10 jours au calme, le kif assuré ! fin septembre. Je recommande x 100. Merci à toute l'équipe du California Motel, je repars avec pleins de souvenirs et d'histoires ensoleillées. Merci les Corses ! ^^)

Séjour agréable dans cet appart hôtel où le service était irréprochable. Situé dans une mini station balnéaire au pied d'une belle plage dans l'anse de Sagone, le port offre des excursions dans les calanques de Piana et la réserve naturelle de Scandola
