Sea Lounge - Porto-Vecchio

Such a shame, as this place could be so good with a great location and the beds are actually quite well priced Vs others in the area. However, having visited many beach bars across Corsica and beyond, the service really lets this place down with a challenging combination of naivety, rudeness and ignorance. (This isn’t a Las Vegas pool party or sugar beach St Lucia this is a local beach bar on a good Mediterranean beach) I try not to write negative reviews but felt empowered to warn people that particularly if you are a non local, you are likely to be overcharged for food and drinks, treated with total indifference and left with a sour taste in the mouth, as the venue may completely ignore confirmed reservations. We drove well out of our way on this basis on this reservation and we’re sadly let down by incompetent staff. Do yourself a favour and go to Linda beach, which ensures the same view, comfortable beds and great service with zero hassle, exactly how it should be done for the area; sea lounge could learn a lot….

I think this should be the best beach experience I had in porto-vecchio, nice ambiance, nice food, nice service. I feel like in Nikki beach Monaco or saint tropez. chilling place for couples and friends, 100% recommended!

This is not a joke! They siriously asked for a simple mashed potatoes 12€! It was ordered for my 8 year old dougther! What a Cheek!!! Don't waist your good money to such bad manner!!!

My Family (my wife (40 and our kids (17,16, 12 made a reservation at the ‘Sea Lounge’ in Porto Vecchio. At the reservation we were told, that the rent for the sunbed is 50 days each and 30 € for parking. But the parking fee, we would get reimbursed if we have a lunch/dinner at the restaurant. So we booked 2 sunbeds for today, 22. August. We arrived around 11 at the Sea Lounge and asked about our beds, where we were not even welcomed, but informed that we have to have lunch here, otherwise we cannot have the beds. When I said, That this was not mentioned at the reservation the lady said, that this can happen, since they have a lot of people and they sometimes do not know, what the boss wants. So she further said, that we have 2 opportunities…either to have lunch at 12:30 (when we arrived at 11 after having breakfast at home at 10!!! or we have to leave again. So we decided to stay and eat some light Stuff for lunch then later on. We went for lunch then finally at 12:30 and had to wait for 17 mins for a waiter to order some water. After another 13 minutes we got some drinks. Then we asked for the menu, we waited for another 35 mins and then we decided To go back again to our sunbeds, because our plan was to stay at the beach and not to wait for services….! Then 10 to 2 pm a lady came and said, that we have to go immediately for lunch, otherwise we have to leave the sea lounge and our money will not be refunded…! Since tasted are different I do not comment on foods, but to say that the dessert was great..the main food was not good at all! And above all we were told, that we have to order a MIN of 2 dishes….otherwise….YES … we have to leave. But in the same time we recognized that a lot of people came in who did not have any food but only drinks..This gave us the feeling, what for French/Corse people the rules are different. All in all we paid for the day: 100 € for the sunbeds, 30 € for parking and 166 for some really ‘normal’ foods. (Also we recognized, that some friend of service people paid only half the price……..without eating…. If you would like to be treated as a cash-cow, with mostly unmotivated and unfriendly Service staff, having far too much expensive food…. Sea lounge in Porto Vecchio is the right place!

Satuday they have “les chants Corses” (music) i recommend night reservation to save on the long chair costs as some can complain. This place is the best cost to value I know in the area. You get the best this world has to offer.
