U Capu Biancu… a luxury hotel in Bonifacio.

  • 7 minute read
U Capu Biancu ouvre ses portes et c’est l’âme d’une île qui se révèle. Une île que l’on nomme Corse. Ou Corsica. Ou encore Kallistê, la très belle. Une île qui se dresse comme une frontière lumineuse face au monde comme un bout de paradis, un patrimoine exceptionnel à protéger.

“There’s a magical place where I love to lose myself and relax, in southern Corsica, where pink granite rubs shoulders with the white chalk of the Bonifacio cliffs, where the beaches seem to describe the end of the world, the green of the immortelle-scented scrub contrasting with the translucent blue of the Mediterranean. The southern winds cradle you in an exceptional setting, the Hotel U Capu Biancu. You can get there by road or by sea, and stay in complete tranquillity”. Alexandre Joulia

Hôtel U Capu Biancu 4****

“People say of the Hotel U Capu Biancu that it has a… independent character. And it’s true. We wanted it that way. We thought of it as a singular land made up of equally singular islets (our rooms). We’ve blended it in with the scents of the maquis, the shimmering colors, the incisive aromas, the comforting silences and the expanses of the sea. So many natural resources that make Corsica what it is: a rare land. A land where you can breathe deeply. A land of ideas. Among these ideas, one is particularly dear to our hearts: to continue along the path of a different kind of hotel, whose luxury is none other than the surrounding nature”. Sylvie and Jean-Louis Limongi – The creators.

You’ll be welcomed by an exceptional team, led by Marie-Josèphe Mucchielli, who speaks the language of “U Capu Biancu”. A language of values, authenticity and innovation. A team based on the fundamental values of an exceptional 4* hotel: humor and hard work, respect and honesty, endurance and sincerity go hand in hand. These are values governed by high standards and the desire to exchange and share.

We know that this team listens to you with special attention. That each member of the team is committed to pleasing and satisfying, that here we share more than we exchange. So, yes, the atmosphere at U Capu Biancu is that of a seaside hotel in Southern Corsica, hushed and intimate. Above all, it’s the serene, convivial atmosphere of a vacation home that smells of human warmth.

The 4-star luxury hotel U Capu Biancu is hidden from the world by fragrant, flower-filled maquis. Built above the sea, it gladly opens its doors to travelers in search of serenity and reminiscence. Here and there, you’ll find an arbour, a “siestodrome”, a hammock, a four-poster bed, a beach or a corner of the maquis. Shelters where new memories are made. Nests where you can devote yourself entirely and uniquely to yourself. Refuges where life flows peacefully to the rhythm of a vacation home.

The rooms

A journey, a story, a country. This is what the rooms and suites of the U Capu Biancu hotel tell us: a trip to Corsica, a natural and… dreamlike history. They tell it with noble materials, such as stone and wood, copper and brass, clay and iron.

With captivating colors as well, marine and “maquisard” essences which they are impregnated with, objects found here and there which testify to an exceptional singularity.

The Villas

Located just 3.5 kilometers from the U capu Biancu hotel , the villas have inherited their uniqueness, authenticity and discreet luxury. Independent and open to the outside, they have a heated and private swimming pool, a summer kitchen, and an almost infinite natural space which makes them real family haunts… or gentle refuges for ‘lover.

With their bedrooms equipped with a bathroom and toilet, their unique decoration, their garden with hammock, their outdoor shower and their summer kitchen with plancha, these villas smell the sweet scent of the holidays. We come here with family or friends, to enjoy the surrounding nature and serenity.

U Capu Biancu Restaurant

An authentic and assertive restaurant! Thus, most of our products come from island soil and the work of local producers. Question of commitment and responsibility. The cuisine of the U Capu Biancu restaurant is therefore distinctive, gourmet, colorful and eclectic.

The chef of the restaurant

Gadio El Hadji is not just a chef; he is a genius. A genius born as if by magic from an Africa where cuisine plays with colors and fragrances. A creative, relentless and committed genius. Who invents, as a true man of the world, daring alliances with resolutely Corso-African influences. Subtly mixes the raw flavors of Corsica with the colorful and spicy ones of Senegal.

When evening comes, the restaurant of the U Capu Biancu hotel welcomes its guests in a cozy atmosphere made of sharing and good food. We contemplate the sunset from the terrace or the panoramic lounge. And we savor an identity cuisine. A cuisine that is invented according to the rhythm of the seasons, the markets, the peaches.

The hut at the U Capu biancu hotel

It is a place overflowing with an energy that is found in each of the dishes. A place exceptionally open to the Mediterranean where notoriety plays on anonymity and where generations meet. Artists, businessmen and women, craftsmen and retirees rub shoulders there in the same relaxed spirit. Privatizable , the straw hut is the perfect place for those who wish to experience simple and gourmet moments .

PAILLOTE BEACH

The active beach with its private pontoon

Located directly at the foot of the U Capu Biancu hotel hut and equipped with a private pontoon, there is something terribly… lively about this beach! Yes, that’s it: lively and paradoxically soothing. Soothing because you can lounge there at will behind a gazebo or on a four-poster bed. We sip a refreshment served by our beach attendant. Which helps with the installation, on request, of mattresses and parasols stored on a corner of the beach. Alive because from its shore, we set off on the wave in a canoe, we perfect our balance in stand up paddle and we dive, simply equipped with a mask and a snorkel, to discover the underwater world. .

Corsica is an exceptional region. Fertile, generous and sunny, it gives rare, distinctive and noble wines. Powerful reds, floral whites and fruity rosés are recognized for their high quality and typicality. For years, U Capu Biancu’s sommelier, Vanessa Maloyer , has been touring the island vineyards . Selects the best vintages which it then shelters within the walls of our cellar. Alongside them also mature AOC wines from other regions. In all, some 700 references, 90% Corsican and 60% organic, are waiting to be observed, smelled and above all… savoured.

Cellar dinners

Freshness and delicacy ! Here is what awaits amateurs, collectors or simply curious. Freshness, delicacy and much more. Because our dinners in the cellar go beyond a simple introduction to wine with a background of Corsican cheese and charcuterie . They are friendly parentheses that we share with family or friends. Moments during which we discover the island vineyards and, through them, the work of local winegrowers and producers . We play with aromas, flavors and textures. We write down our impressions which we keep in memory or which we bring back to our tasting notebook.

Boat trips

Do you prefer heading south or north? Drop anchor near Bonifacio, the Lavezzi Islands or Propriano ? Spend a day sailing the seas or half a day along the coast in search of secret bays? Popping champagne in the evening aboard a Boston Whaler? Whatever your desire, the moment will be exhilarating! A zest of fishing or diving, a sunrise or a sunset, a picnic, an aperitif or grilled lobster to enjoy on board or in a wild cove, not far from the U Capu Biancu hotel.
