The hamlet of Pinarello sits on one of Southern Corsica's most beautiful bays, just north of Porto Vecchio. Take a stroll along the sandy beach or escape the heat of the day in the old church or nearby restaurants. Every August, you can also expect the melodic intervention of the annual jazz festival.

Even better, you couldn't be closer to the beach and a rooftop swimming pool to enjoy the wonderful views. Alternatively, should you need a change of scene, a day-long mountain excursion offers a welcome adventure into the unspoilt island landscape.

Staff were very friendly and helpful. Great location on the beach with plenty of good sun beds and towels. Simpson travel provided excellent instructions for driving to the resort and return to the airport. Thank you

Mr Paul Vallance, September 2024

Lovely hotel with friendly helpful staff, situated right on the beach. Views from the sea-facing rooms are beautiful and there are lots of enjoyable restaurants within minutes walk serving good quality cuisine. Leisurely breakfasts on the beach patio were a pleasure and the beach was clean and safe to bathe in warm water (September).

Ms Margaret Read, September 2024

Excellent if you like being right on the beach with a few alternative restaurants within a short stroll.

Ms Allison Ingram, September 2024

This was a special holiday for me and my elderly mum. It was perfect, the hotel was wonderful with such friendly helpful staff and it worked for people of all ages. Swimming in the sea was a delight and exploring the towns, villages and spectacular mountains nearby was easy with the hire car. We loved every minute of our holiday. Thank you Simpsons.

Mrs Catherine Herrod, September 2024

Hotel Le Pinarellu, from the moment you arrive until you leave the staff made us feel welcome. Polite, effective, multi-lingual. The room and view was to die for. Stunning. A calm of nature and spirit fused into one. 7 days of bliss. Very much needed and appreciated. Thank you.

Mr Robert Kime, August 2024

Wonderful stay at amazing hotel.

Mr Jonathan Elvers, July 2024

We found Simpson Travel excellent…with our holiday we got exactly what we were promised and more...in every aspect . We don’t normally use travel agents as have never found them beneficial, but we will definitely be using Simpson again

Mrs Laura Muskett, June 2024

One of the best-organised holidays we have ever booked. Excellent choice of flight, hotel and car, and informative notes supplied beforehand. (I'm sure that the local reps would have been excellent had we needed them – but we didn't because it all just worked.) Truly relaxing. And Corsica is a wonderful mix of sea, mountain, river, and fragrant vegetation.

Mr Nicholas Jones, June 2024

The Hotel Pinarello was lovely- the staff were all extremely friendly, helpful and kind. The location of the hotel is just gorgeous. Thank you Simpson Travel...another outstanding holiday!

Mrs Michele Crisp, May 2024

Beautiful setting, very peaceful and a great place to recharge batteries. We loved sitting on our terrace in the evening watching the dolphins coming into the bay on the hunt! The staff are delightful and nothing is too much trouble - we can't recall the last time we had such great service and thoughtfulness from hotel staff - and we have travelled a lot in our long lives. Driving can be a bit tiring on the windy roads and places take longer to reach than you might expect. Typical of islands we found. But that was not an issue for us. There is plenty to do if you are keen on water sports and the beach is beautifully maintained by Charlie and Jordan so very safe for walking which we did everyday several times!

Mrs Pamela Burn, May 2024

A charming hotel with incredibly lovely staff. Perfect location, and balcony view was fabulous. Would have liked lighter food options for lunch; as well, food prices were quite expensive. Thank you to Simpson for our 3rd holiday with you and more in future.

Ms Maria Cristina Agnini, May 2024

We had a lovely week in Pinarello, all the hotel staff were very friendly and helpful. The hotel is right on the beach and the strip of restaurants so close by are great for evening meals which meant no driving out anywhere for supper - perfect! We will definitely be back!

Mr Geoffrey Pentecost, August 2023

Absolutely fantastic holiday. Corsica is fantastic and booking through Simpson Travel made it so easy. We needed some help whilst there with taxis and nothing was too much to ask, Claire was quick to respond and so helpful. Will definitely be looking to use Simpson's in the future and we can't wait to go back to the hotel. Perfection!

Lorraine Ballantyne, July 2023

Simpson travel were extremely helpful and it was good to have a local representative on the island. The location was beautiful. Warm crystal sea and long sandy beaches. Small, clean and friendly hotel all perfect for a relaxing holiday. Seeing the sea view every morning from our room was a joy. There is a choice of restaurants near the hotel for lunch or evening meal. A very chilled holiday just what we needed.

Julie Hanson, September 2022

This was our first time with Simpson and everything was excellent and we will definitely be booking through you again.

C Davies, September 2019

Location, breakfast, staff and introduction by Simpson – 10/10. Very much looking forward to a return visit.

The Murrays, September 2019

We were very impressed with Simpson Travel – from the commencement of our journey to our return, the whole process was well organised and stress free. Everything was aimed at keeping the client happy and informed so overall a very good experience to say the least.

Mrs Bourne, September 2019

This was our first experience of a Simpson holiday, and we were definitely impressed. From the knowledgeable and helpful booking team, the pre-travel information, the quality of the hotel, to all the travel details, everything was very well organised with a personal touch. We would definitely recommend Simpson Travel to take care of your holiday.

Mrs Sergeant, September 2019

Hôtel le Pinarello is in a fabulous location with excellent staff who were always attentive and friendly. Sunbeds were always available on the beach for hotel residents. The inclusion of car hire for the whole two weeks gave us the flexibility to travel around the island at leisure.

Jacqui Byrom, September 2018

We would recommend Simpson Travel to anyone. They provided us with a great holiday from the transfer to and from the airport to the fabulous service, location and quality of our hotel.

Ralph Snow, September 2018

Le Pinarello is a lovely small hotel. The website pictures are totally accurate – it really is on the beach. The staff can't do enough to make sure that you enjoy your stay. I'd recommend it for couples.

David, September 2018

We had a wonderful stay at the beautiful Hotel le Pinarello. The rooms, beach, food and the amazing pool were all excellent, and we must particularly recommend the high level of service and friendliness of the staff.

Mrs J Jackson, June 2018

We had a very good holiday in the excellent Hotel le Pinarello. We liked the bar area overlooking the sea, and there is a selection of good restaurants within walking distance. The beach was amazing with easy access and lovely clear and warmish water; perfect for elderly swimmers! There are comfortable sunbeds with good shade as part of the package with plenty of towels. Valet parking for the hire car was a plus and came with no charge – excellent. Altogether a first-class holiday experience.

Arthur Douglas-Nugent, June 2018

We so enjoyed our stay at Hotel Pinarello. Everything was excellent, from its beachside location with plenty of sunbeds to our clean and bright room – and the view from our room and balcony was just lovely. The food was excellent and of an extremely high standard. We did as another reviewer suggested and lunched in the hotel (fabulous food!). All the staff were extremely pleasant, smiling and helpful – from the top people down to the lovely, friendly cleaners. An excellent hotel and I would highly recommend it.

Mrs Serjeant, May 2018

Pinarello a wonderful gem of a hotel. Stunning location with fabulous views across the bay. Junior Suite – gorgeous and very modern and comfortable. Breakfast was lovely (delicious fruit and pastries) and the lunches on the terrace, although very expensive, were a real treat. Beach outside the hotel nice but a short walk takes you to one of the best beaches I have seen in Europe. Lots to see and do in the south east of Corsica too. All in all a beautiful hotel in a beautiful location.

Mrs Galazka, September 2016

Hotel le Pinarello, in the South of Corsica, is very well located for sightseeing of Bonifacio, Porto Vecchio, the mountains (Bavella), Filitosa archaeological site, and other places, including lots of beautiful beaches. The hotel itself is directly on a private well-manicured beach, and is surprisingly peaceful and respectable. There is the possibility of all sorts of watersports and sailing, and is very child-friendly. The beach is also extremely safe for children, being on a very gentle slope, with very little tide or undercurrent. There is even a children-only time of day in the small but nice infinity pool on the roof. The breakfasts were delicious and catered for every taste, and always plenty of helpful friendly staff. We had a most enjoyable time there.

Mrs Abbott, September 2015

Our choice of Corsican properties is as diverse as the island itself, ranging from simple seaside charm to genuine luxury and style. Much of our portfolio is privately owned, and price alone is therefore not a universal guide. We contract all our accommodation in person, and each property has its individual appeal. To help you make the right choice based on your own priorities, we have devised a simple grading guide to be considered in conjunction with each individual property description, awarding up to a maximum of five stars for the below categories.
