The U Capu Biancu is a place bursting withlife

It is said that great happiness is made of small pleasures. At the U Capu Biancu hotel, small pleasures are the great joys of life. They are like us: absolutely simple and warm, luxuriously humble and natural. They are made of discoveries – discoveries of exceptional places, mysterious legends and unprecedented journeys. Meetings too – with men and women passionate about the island of Corsica, about its land, culture and history. They are made of fun, laughter and life. We design these little pleasures as great joys, the breath of fresh air that you certainly need.

At U Capu Biancu, we love the sea!

Boatoutings

Prefer to head south or north? To drop your anchor on the coast of Bonifacio, the Lavezzi Islands or Propriano? To spend a day sailing the seas or half a day along the coast in search of secret bays? To pop open a bottle champagne in the evening aboard our Boston Whaler? Whatever your desires, you're guaranteed an exhilarating experience! Not just because of its tapered hull and three 350-horsepower engines, but also because on this tailor-made trip, you can add a touch of excitement with fishing or diving, a sunrise or sunset, a picnic, an aperitif or a lobster grill to be enjoyed on board or in a wild cove, not far from the U Capu Biancu hotel. Because we will have truly "offered you an island"...

Activities at the U Capu Biancu hotel

Our play and relaxationareas

Fancy throwing yourself into the water? But watch out! Not just any water. The one that shows off its bluish transparency at the foot of our four-star hotel in Southern Corsica. That water that sculpts secret beaches from which to set off on a canoe and let yourself glide on the waves in absolute tranquility. Want to find your balance or looking to perfect your core strength? Try stand-up paddleboarding, ideal for strength training, working out while having fun and annihilating any mental fatigue. Or take a dive, simply equipped with a mask and snorkel, for a quiet and soothing discovery of the underwater world.

Pétanque is synonymous with sunshine. With mad laughter and, we have to admit, a little bit of trickery. And it sounds like the accents of southern France. A singing accent that makes you want to shout: "So? Will you be pointing or shooting?" Petanque is the simplicity of the game, the accuracy of the throw, the craftiness of the cheater and the seriousness of the professional. Petanque, as we practise it on the bowling pitch of the U Capu Biancu hotel, is about friends and family, fun and good humour, simple joy and a shared moment. In fact, pétanque is a bit like us…

A pool table, foosball and board games to satisfy your inner child, what do you think? We've taken this goal of helping you find your inner child and made it a reality. Here, in the heart of this seaside hotel. With a cosy space where you can take on your friends and family at a game of rummy, belote or French tarot. Where we gather around chequerboards and chessboards. Playing at pool strategists. And where players spin the handles of the foosball table between their skilled or not-so-skilled fingers. Here, in this space dedicated to entertainment, we discover the freedom of childhood.

Here, books travel. They leave the leisure area to wander happily around the heart of the U Capu Biancu hotel. Moving freely from one reader to another, lazing in a room, by the pool or on the corner of a table. Letting themselves be devoured or simply flicked through, recounting incredible worlds and lives in a variety of languages. Here and there, the stories of Corsican authors narrate Corsica. Leaving you with the desire to scribble a few words and let them glide between pages, sharing your emotions with the next readers. Well then, transform our books into batons, tools of freedom and sharing!

Why not embrace Cross Training, Pilates & Yoga at Capu Biancu?

A supple body, a tonedholiday!

Sport at the U Capu Biancu hotel is "natural", "green" and adapted to your abilities. Natural because you will be using Swingbell® wooden and leather dumbbells and using the WaterRower® rowing machine to resist the primitive force of water, favouring fluidity over impacts and twists. Green thanks to the non-motorised Sprintbok ® treadmill activated by your legs and energy alone. And because sweating is mandatory, there's no point in looking for air conditioning …

Zen & Serenity
These words come to mind instantly when we think of yoga and Pilates. The serene smiles of Jean-Pierre and Camille, our expert yogis, and the warm, uplifting energy of Julice Vacca, our fitness coach, say it all.

Each session is an invitation to realign body and mind—a pause in time, a moment of true harmony where you reconnect with your inner self.

And what better place to experience this than our seaside hotel? The sound of the waves, the salty breeze, and the soft morning light create the perfect setting for peace and renewal.

Join us every morning for a moment just for you.

They say some practices help you recentre. And it’s true. But here, it’s more than that — it’s a deep reconnection. To yourself, to nature, to what truly matters.

Whether it's yoga, Pilates, Ayurveda, Qigong, or any other wellness discipline, our retreats take on a new meaning in this extraordinary setting, nestled between the turquoise sea and the wild Corsican maquis.

Each breath becomes a return to the self. Each movement, an opening to a more peaceful world. Here, body, mind, and soul align, lighten, and let go. It's not just about balance — it’s an inner journey.

Give your next retreat a truly exceptional setting.

Let yourself be guided by the energy of the place. And make U Capu Biancu the stage for your next wellness experience.

U Capu Biancu, from one art shop to another

The island creators, our guests ofhonour

The U Capu Biancu hotel is a real gallery: paintings and photographs from island artists are displayed on the walls, exhibited for our travellers. Presented in this way, these works question, transport and invite audiences on a singular journey across Corsica. Beyond their sometimes astonishing discoveries, they offer the chance to discover talented creators.

Take a breath and browse our island creations. Take a breath and try on a piece of jewellery, a dress or even a hat. Take a breath and treat yourself to a souvenir. At the open-air shop of the U Capu Biancu hotel, it's true, we love to spoil ourselves. Even better, you can spoil yourself while enjoying the fresh air. You can even try on your new purchases while admiring the Corsican horizon! Here, shopping is infused with the flavour of holidays – but above all, with the taste of freedom.

The artistic truth of Corsica can be found behind our windows. They are the showcase housing the talent and passion of island creators and artisans. The stopover before these creations set off on their great journey towards new horizons. Yes, far from imprisoning them, our windows display jewellery, clothing and decorative objects solely so that you may bring them back as a souvenir or as a present to gift to your loved ones.

Activities in Southern Corsica

What to do in Bonifacio and the surrounding areas?

What could we say about the Sperone golf course that has not already been said? That it is a unique place? An exceptional golf course? But you already knew that, didn't you? And you probably know that its eighteen holes include some known and recognised as the most spectacular in the world. That in order to reach the famous number 16, players must drive over the sea? But did you know that playing golf on this very spot on the island of Corsica, on the edge of the cliffs of Bonifacio, is synonymous with breathing? Breathing in the sea breeze and the maquis. Breathing in life itself. And did you know that Sperone golf course is located close to the U Capu Biancu hotel?

Bonifacio … An age-old city made even more beautiful and attractive by the twists and turns of the centuries. Bonifacio the pious, whose town walls are filled with religious monuments. Whose secular alleys, once brought to life by the hustle and bustle of town criers, water carriers and other pedlars, are simply teeming with incredible adventures. A Bonifacio whose history rises above the bastion. Following our guide, you'll shudder at the thought of the great plague of 1526, the incessant sieges (including the most terrible of all, led by Dragut the Pirate) and the dramatic sinking of the Sémillante in 1855. This tour offers you the chance to dive right into the very soul of Bonifacio.

How about doing like Jean-Jacques Rousseau and setting off "on foot in good weather, in a beautiful country, with no need to hurry (…)"? Well then, leave your seaside hotel and head out for a walk along the paths of Corsica. Let yourself be amazed by the orri* of the Monaccia d'Aullène trail, and blinded by the Madonetta lighthouse in Bonifacio or even that of Pertusato. But watch out! Reaching these destinations will force you to cross some exceptional landscapes and sites, confronting spectacular views. And who knows? Perhaps, once at your destination, you will discover the secrets of a bewitching land ... *Orri are shelters located under rocks. They welcomed the men of prehistoric times. They have also been used as grain silos or even as burial grounds. Above all, they have fuelled imaginations and inspired tales and legends.
