Beauty and wellness Corsica

The Caldane baths are a wonderful place to bathe and recharge. The baths are dug out of the rock, in the middle of nature, and are fed by a spring of sulphurous water that gushes out naturally at 38°C. These have curative properties (dermatology, rheumatology...). The Caldane Baths offer a Finnish sauna (80°-90°) and an infrared sauna, which you should try out urgently. Cosmetic products with Caldane waters are available on site and on the website. For a real moment of letting go and happiness in a majestic setting.

Located in Olmeto, in the heart of the beautiful Gulf of Valinco, the ancient Roman baths have been under the management of the municipality since 1992. It is like going to the swimming pool.

Built in 1881, the old baths hotel is a replica of a colonial house in Saigon. On site: swimming pool, whirlpool bath, hydro-massage bathtub, affusion shower, sauna and hammam!

The Taccana baths will be back in operation from spring 2024, thanks to the initiative of a courageous couple, Vanessa and Sébastien, who have reinvented the spa's sulphurous and sodic waters.
