A nature-inspired residence near Porto-Vecchio

Petripini, villas and studios nestled in the Corsican maquis

Here, the fragrant maquis, the wooded hills. In the distance, the silhouette of pine trees.

Invisible from the road, the Hamlet of Petripini reveals its exceptional ‘caseddi,’ houses inspired by traditional Corsican sheepfolds, set in a privileged location in the countryside of Porto-Vecchio, bordered by the Ospedale Heights.

Petripini inspires a sense of escape and promises an authentic stay, away from the hustle and bustle, a haven of peace for an immersion in nature.

Book

An organic design philosophy

Beneath the essential materials and clean lines, the colors of the maquis and the refinement of carefully sourced objects from the island, Petripini unfolds a sober modernity highlighted by traces of the past. Each caseddu is adorned with noble and recycled materials, and every piece of furniture carries a story. It’s up to you to make it your own cocoon, your refuge, perfect for relaxation...

Nature, wellness and surroundings

Between well-being and nature, Petripini offers the perfect setting to unwind: start your day with a peaceful fitness session, relax in the sauna, enjoy a herbal tea in the wellness area, then head out along the scented trails that wind through the maquis. Here, gentle walks, the fragrances of the surrounding nature, and the calm of the place blend together to create a truly restful experience in the heart of Corsica. Yet, the region’s must-see destinations are all within easy reach: Palombaggia, Santa Giulia, Bonifacio, the mountains of l’Ospedale, and the less known La Testa beach are all less than a 30-minute drive from Petripini.
See what awaits

The Experience of Suspended Time

The sweetness of a summer day, a cloudless sky, a glass of invigorating herbal tea. A peaceful and delicately scented atmosphere. Anticipating a magnificent tomorrow. Where you will explore the dazzling nature of the Porto-Vecchio hinterland, trekking through the pine forests, either on foot or by bike. And what a pleasure it is, after a busy day, to find yourself in your caseddu, watching the leaves of the pine trees rustling in the wind or just... cooling off in your private pool.

Jara Van der Ham

@jarafelicia

For Jara, her exploration of yoga began when she left Amsterdam to move to Paris in 2016. Always drawn to movement and sport — from baseball to ballet — she found yoga to be a gentler and more caring approach to the body and mind. She quickly realised that yoga could be extremely beneficial and that everyone should be able to enjoy it.


Today, Jara passionately teaches creative and functional vinyasa, often centred around key postures, as well as gentle but powerful yin. She also offers specific classes focused on backbends and back health.


With an approach that is both technical and accessible, she creates a relaxed space where everyone can challenge themselves with confidence, forget their insecurities and explore their potential. Jara is known for her passion for guiding her students to places they never thought they could reach. Teaching in English and French, she makes it a point of honour to bring a lightness to her classes. For her, yoga is above all a moment of reconnection with oneself and deep well-being.
