Fantastic location. Excellent service. Great rooms, pools and beach. Breakfast is heavy on pastries and breads as becomes the French cuisine. At the restaurant the risotto dish was very good. The linguine with clams is not very good.

Beautiful resort with gorgeous views. The balcony was lovely. Convenient location with short drive to Propriano and Sartene. A couple negatives- not enough pool chairs and beach chairs must be rented (40 euro/day). Beach restaurant and drinks are priced a bit too high. Be aware there are a lot of stairs to get to the restaurants, pools and beaches.

Traveling with a baby

We had an amazing stay at Marinca. We were traveling with my sisters son who is 1 and a half years and the staff were very accommodating and friendly. The room was beautiful and clean. The first pool was perfect for lounging in the sun since the pool was so shallow that the baby could play while we watched him. The beach is beautiful and the sand perfect, made from miniature pebbles that don’t stick to the skin and doesn’t get everywhere. We loved the restaurant at the beach with stunning views and great food. 10/10 would recommend!

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Private beach, but mediocre hospitality.

We arrived 11:30pm at the hotel due to a 6 hour flight delay at Paris CDG airport. The male concierge reception staff that checked us into our hotel room Friday was amazing. The bar and restaurant was closed, but concierge made us 2 cocktails and cheese and cold cuts charcuterie board. However that’s when the good customer service stopped. We never received a tour of the hotel compound from reception desk staff. Then we were never informed about any Spa services by the reception desk staff. Next, we were not informed that we had to reserve day beds at the beach a day prior. Private beach was amazing. Super safe to leave our valuables on towels since we had no day bed. The WiFi internet at hotel was horrendous. I could not connect to WiFi and I didn’t have cellular service. Hotel staff didn’t care I could not connect to WiFi. Internet is a necessity in this modern age to research reservations for restaurants, bars, and driving routes. But the most appalling behaviour from Hôtel reception desk staff was check out process. I went to front desk if I should call from my room phone to have a bellboy bring my luggage to reception lobby to get our luggage into car. They said, “yes of course please call.” But in reality when I called the front desk from my room phone the front desk receptionist said, “no it’s impossible I cannot get collect your luggage and haul it to front desk reception check out area.” So I had to hand carry to my heavy luggage up 30 steps of stairs to lobby!

Great location and facilities. Staff were welcoming and accommodating. The gym could do with better kits and fit-out. Another improvement could be serving drinks at the beach restaurant during the day, rather than just serving food. The weakest point was the breakfast; it's not included in the base price, and it's pretty pricey for what it was.

The location, the views the overall experience will take your breathe away. The check-in staff is a hit or miss.More so a miss - very rude and unhelpful. Do not take their word for RSVP’s or information. However the location and the beach experience is priceless. The staff that work the beach and beach restaurant are excellent! They should teach management and front desk a thing or two about customer service and overall kindness.

Mezcla de muchos estilos, no se sabe muy bien qué tipo de hotel quiere ser. En todas las piscinas hay niños y familias, y también hay gente que va a comer al restaurante del hotel pero luego se quedan igualmente y ocupan las piscinas del mismo, y lo acaba convirtiendo en un sitio vulgar sin un solo rincón en el que relajarse del todo.

Das Marinca ist ein elegantes und mondänes Hotel. Bezaubernd und beeindruckend sind sein genialer Blick auf die Bucht von Propriano die man von (m.E.) allen Zimmern und den Balkonen hat . Der Strand ist ein Traum und erinnert mit seinen Felsen etwas an die Seychellen, nur der Sand ist gröber. Letztere wird tgl. gereinigt. Das Beachrestaurant La Pailotte bietet ein hervorragendes Essen und ein wunderbares leichtes Erlebnis von Dinner am Meer. Ein Board und ein Paddelboot laden zum aktiven Erholen ein. Das Personal ist jung und engagiert. Der Spa bietet Ruhe und Entspannung auf hohem Niveau. Aber … dem Anspruch Nummer 21 der besten Hotels in Frankreich zu sein genügt es nicht. Zu viele Kleinigkeiten irritierten uns als Gäste. Dazu zählte leider auch die klare Ansage des Managers on duty über genau diesen Fakt: We are the Best. Leider wurde das was die Bewertung gebracht hat - das Hotel mit seinen Leistungen nicht vorgestellt . Bei einem verwinkelten Bau unglücklich. Die Grundsanierung ist doch schon etwas her. Die Schirme am Strand muss man sich selbst richten und leider sind nur ca. 30 Liegen am Stand erlaubt. Keine Einschränkung: die Poollandschaft ist traumhaft und verfügt über viele abwechslungsreiche Liegemöglichkeiten. Fazit: Ein bisschen mehr Zurückhaltung des Managements würde Sympathien heben.
