About this house rental
Villa Nerea is an architect's house of approximately 250m2 on 3 levels plus 250m2 of terraces. Large reception room with TV area, American kitchen, 7 bedrooms each with its own private shower room including a master suite with bath and shower and a children's bedroom with 4 beds, 7 toilets. Large swimming pool heated with salt (no smell of chlorine) and wooden deck, sheltered area for outdoor meals. The house, not overlooked, overlooks the sea, the Bavella mountains in the distance and the wild maquis all around. Open to the surrounding nature, each room will offer you a wonderful view and lights.
Its location is also ideal to enjoy either the confidential beaches and coves, or hiking or canyoning in the Valley of Cavu and its emerald natural pools (15 minutes by car) or in the mythical massif of Bavella. You also have a pretty natural sandy beach, family just below the house with many restaurants open to the Mediterranean. Finally, the village of Sainte Lucie de Porto Vecchio with its many shops and its market is 10/15 minutes from the villa.
Located at the end of a partially dirt, steep road, villa NEREA dominates the pretty sandy beach of Tarco, ideal for swimming for the little ones and with several pleasant beach restaurants. You can reach it on foot in less than 10 minutes. Nearby, 5 minutes away by car, you can discover the wonderful cove of Fautea or go to Canella or Favone. Pinarello and its pretty seaside village is less than 20 minutes away by car. Finally, if you prefer nature hikes, the pools of Cavu and its transparent emerald waters are also about 20 minutes from the house. Bavella and its incredible hiking or canyoning are less than an hour's drive away.
On your arrival, our home manager Nathalie will welcome you, explain how the house works and will be happy to give you all the advice (shops, charming restaurants, the most beautiful beaches nearby) that could be useful for an idyllic stay.
A cleaning service is included, 2 times 2 hours a week or every day at an extra cost if desired. A breakfast service brought in the form of a basket between 9 am and 10:30 am is also available on request and at an additional cost. Finally, only sheets and towels are provided with the rental of the villa; if you wish to rent beach towels, do not hesitate to request them in advance. Villa Nerea can comfortably accommodate up to 15 people but it can also be rented in 2 or 3 bedrooms if you request it with a rate depending on the number of rooms.

Magnificent house with exceptional views! The pictures don’t do it justice as the views of the mountains and water are breathtaking. What a wonderful location with a sleek beach that is definitely walking distance. We would love to go back again one day with our family and kids

Es hat uns sehr gut gefallen und es hat alles sehr gut gepasst. Die Strasse hoch zum Haus ist etwas steil, aber man gewöhnt sich daran…
Der Laden in der Nähe ist klein aber fein. Auch der kleine Strand gleich nebenan, ist sehr sauber und empfehlenswert.
Wir können das Haus aus unserer Sicht sehr gut weiterempfehlen (4 Erw. & 4 Kinder). Jedes Zimmer mit Dusche & Lavabo und dazu 4 WC.

This is an exceptional property but we had 3 issues - access, loos, and living room aircon. Some people won’t mind these issues but best to know in advance.
The views of the sea and mountains are wonderful. But this is only possible because the property is perched atop a hill. Private access from the road is some 400 metres long starting with a gentle upward stony track then climbing some 70 meters on concrete at an almost impossible gradient. This requires 1st gear in a car (one car we saw slipped its clutch). Due to the gradient the walk down is not pleasant and the walk up is challenging in the early morning or late evening and punishing if not impossible in the heat of the day. It's only for very fit humans and dogs. Those with mobility issues, small children or buggy pushing parents should not attempt it. There is a work around - take your car down and park at the foot for the return up - not ideal. The property in effective terms is 700 meters from the beach / shop – driveway (with gradient) some 400 meters plus road to the car park 300 meters.
The swimming pool is wonderful, warm at around 30 degrees, checked weekly, powered cover. The toilets are awful! There are only 2 small loos, neither has hand basin or bidet. The ground floor loo serves 3 bedrooms, the top floor loo 2 bedrooms. You can hardly fit in the top one, there is no fresh air or extractor. The property description states 5 en suite bathrooms – I had expected 5 loos in a “luxury” property.
The outdoor eating area is a lovely place to have lunch.
The indoor living area has no aircon. At night leave the doors open and brave the insects, or close the doors and suffer extreme heat. The bedrooms have aircon.
The glass doors have no visible safety strip - one guest walked into a door causing a serious black eye and bruised face. There was no audio we could find but we took our own Bluetooth system. We didn't see an advertised "boat" or "petanque".
The bed linen was partly substandard - helpfully exchanged by the local agent; the kitchen knives were not sharp. It was good having 2 fridges and 2 dishwasher machines. The restaurants at the beach and further away (e.g. at Solanzara) are lovely. The little shop at the beach stocks most essentials. There are supermarkets (Spar at Ste Lucie and Leclerc at Porto Vecchio). Local wineries e.g. at Lecci worth a visit also trips to Zonza and Bonifacio.
