Corsica is a mysterious island made of tradition and generosity, so what better period could describe it than Christmas? It is under the summer sun that you have left your villa at Les Oliviers de Palombaggia in Porto –Vecchio, but it is the story of our island in winter that we will tell you …

In Corsica, children and grownups enjoy the Holiday traditions; however the “7 evenings” tradition is very much popular with children. The custom wants that the week before Christmas the children of the village gather in small groups and pay a visit to 7 families, each evening a different family. Children bring a log to be burned in the fireplace, around which they will share tales and stories with their host alongside a good laugh and eating delicious Frappe and Canistrelli…
On Christmas’ eve, do not forget to take care of your guest by putting one log per guest in the fireplace, thus giving them all a good health for the year to come…
From the residence and its stone houses, Les Oliviers de Palombaggia’s team wishes you a wonderful Christmas made of conviviality and sweet moments…

Bon Natale a tutti !
Merry Christmas !
