Our villas around Saint-Florent are selected for the quality of their setting and the way their living spaces open onto the surrounding landscape. Some properties have wide terraces with a view of the gulf, while others sit among olive trees or within a Mediterranean garden, creating a quieter atmosphere away from the centre.
Several villas with private pools in Corsica can be found around Saint-Florent, including properties with heated or infinity pools, lounge chairs and outdoor dining areas. Depending on the villa, guests may also find generous reception spaces, fully equipped kitchens and well-appointed shower rooms, with luxury amenities such as heated or infinity pools, a private tennis court, outdoor kitchens or direct access to the sea.
Service levels vary from one property to another. Some villas are fully independent, while selected homes include house staff or a cook, allowing meals and day-to-day assistance to form part of the stay without compromising privacy. This type of accommodation is particularly well suited to families and groups looking for space and independence.
Villanovo’s properties are located in Saint-Florent itself and in quieter surroundings around the gulf. Some villas are set around Fromentica or the Fornali area, close to the coastline while remaining within easy reach of the marina, restaurants and beaches.
Other properties lie slightly inland, including around Poggio d’Oletta, where the landscape becomes more rural and the views open towards the surrounding hills. These different settings allow guests to choose between proximity to Saint-Florent’s waterfront and a more secluded environment within the Nebbiu countryside.
Guests wishing to explore more of the island can also discover our villas in northern Corsica, with further properties positioned between the coast, vineyards and mountain landscapes.
Villanovo’s dedicated local concierge service can assist with airport transfers from Bastia, private drivers, restaurant reservations, childcare and practical arrangements at the villa.
The team can also organise private chefs, wellness treatments, boat outings across the gulf or activities suited to families. These personalised services, together with support throughout the stay, help guests shape their time in Saint-Florent according to their own pace and preferences.
Local knowledge also plays an important role. The concierge can share travel tips on restaurants, vineyards, beaches and places to discover around the Nebbiu and Cap Corse, helping guests make the most of their stay without overplanning it.
Saint-Florent is a natural departure point for exploring the Agriate coastline, where beaches such as Saleccia and Lotu can be reached by boat or along routes through the surrounding landscape. The clear waters of the gulf also lend themselves to swimming, paddleboarding, sailing and snorkelling.
Inland, the Patrimonio wine region offers a very different setting, with vineyards spread across the foothills between Saint-Florent and Bastia. Tastings provide an opportunity to discover local wines while exploring the villages and landscapes of the Nebbiu.
Closer to town, the marina, old quarter and Genoese citadel are easy to explore on foot. From Saint-Florent, guests can also continue towards Cap Corse or spend a day discovering Bastia, combining time by the sea with cultural visits and the quieter rhythm of the surrounding countryside.
