Sea Lounge sur Porto-Vecchio

Fantastic restaurant!!! If we return to Corsica, we'll definitely spend another wonderful evening at this magnificent establishment!! Thank you!

A very pleasant experience. Refined and delicious cuisine.

Top-notch service, we come every year, highly recommended

Twice this year, in May and September. The first time, I have excellent memories. Beautiful food, a fantastic wine list. The service wasn't great, but overall a pleasant experience and I want to return. The second time, the service was catastrophic! Okay, the food is still very good. I love the wine list with its really reasonable prices for the location. But the service... we have to talk about it! First of all, I have to beg for a drink at the front table. If I have to chase after the waiters after paying 45 euros, I'll go somewhere else! Then we sit down to eat... and that's where the service reaches its absolute worst. The bottle of wine doesn't arrive, and of course, the appetizers eventually arrive... everything I love... And then a waiter finally arrives with our bottle and, of course, doesn't apologize (what's the point?...). I asked for different glassware because some of the glasses were damaged, and since the restaurant's glassware is of such excellent quality, I have the right to request different glassware. And then came the final straw: "At the price of the bottle, these (glasses) are fine..." In short, arrogant behavior that I can't stand, especially coming from a superb Corsican winemaker. So what am I to conclude? Do I have to order a €500 bottle to be treated properly? As a result, I ordered two bottles at lunch. This arrogance needs to be addressed, especially since the second waiter was very professional. And the final bill: a bottle charged for a poor vintage, at a higher price, of course. In short, an experience that leaves a bitter taste. I don't like getting into price competitions; it's ridiculous. The quality of a wine isn't measured by its price; otherwise, you don't know your business. The service needs improvement, because otherwise it could be flawless. Nevertheless, it's the service that contributes to the overall experience...

After several visits to the Sea Lounge—three times in 2026 alone, and several times in previous years—I felt compelled to leave a detailed review. Our recurring visits demonstrate our genuine appreciation for this place. But precisely because we value the location and its potential, certain points deserve to be addressed. Being able to park easily, for free, and in the shade is a true luxury in this area, which is very busy during peak season. This is an excellent feature that deserves to be highlighted. The setting is exceptional: from the moment we arrived, our eyes were delighted. The location is magnificent, and the surroundings greatly contribute to the enjoyment of the day. However, the reservation system could be more transparent. We requested a prime spot, but the allocation sometimes seemed to be based on criteria that were difficult to understand. Is it chronological order? Or by watch brand? At this point, it's hard to know. A clear explanation of the allocation rules would prevent misunderstandings and frustrations. We were greeted by a very friendly and pleasant team of beach attendants. That was appreciated. However, their presence throughout the day could be increased for taking orders. At €90 for a sunbed for two people, one naturally expects more attentive and consistent beach service. The real drawback: the table service. This is where the experience doesn't live up to the price. We have a pre-set time for our meal, which is a good system. But once we're in the restaurant, the continuity of the welcome and service needs to be ensured. On our three visits in 2026, the table service was not commensurate with the price paid. An order that begins with "What can I get you?", when the price of a simple salad starts at €25, deserves, in my opinion, careful consideration of the wording. The phrasing may seem innocuous, but it immediately sets the tone for the entire experience. And above all, the wait was very long on all three of our visits. Our last visit, in September, at the end of the season, almost turned into a disaster. We had to ask for our wine two or three times. And when it finally arrived, we noticed that the glasses were chipped. So we asked for them to be replaced. The response we received was particularly surprising, even insolent: "For this wine at this price, these glasses are fine." This remark deserves to be highlighted. The quality of a wine is not measured solely by the price of the bottle, and certainly not to the point of considering that a €60 wine deserves to be served in damaged glasses. This wine is from a very good Corsican estate. Respect your terroir and your customers. A bottle of wine at this price deserves to be served in glasses in perfect condition, regardless of its price. And when you consider that our lunch bill for two came to around €260, excluding the bed and the gourmet meal, just for lunch, it's reasonable to expect service commensurate with the expense. It's not a question of luxury or excessive demands. It's a question of respect for the product and the customer. With a bit of humor, I finally managed to lighten the mood. But I must admit it wasn't easy. We ate well, even if the portions were really very, very small for the price. We did order a second bottle of wine, which was served by a different, much more pleasant waiter. This just goes to show that the experience can also depend on the person serving the table. Special mention goes to the dessert, which was more than enjoyable. That's a real plus worth highlighting. In conclusion: we like the place, but expect more. A place this beautiful deserves service that matches its prices. Much improvement is in sight, especially when we hear management happily boasting about the amount of money earned each season...

Place generally has a nice vibe and it is well maintained. Waiters were not polite and welcoming in restaurant part. They should behave much better with guests. Their english was poor as well so communication was bad as well. They did not inform us that the fish we order will not be cooked properly, so the food was not good at all. Prices are high.

A high-quality beach restaurant with sophisticated and unusual dishes. The setting is magnificent, and a special mention goes to the excellent cocktails!

A truly excellent experience. The entire team was fantastic, very welcoming, attentive, and offered great advice. We felt very well taken care of from beginning to end. A huge thank you especially to Valentina, who was absolutely lovely and very attentive to us. She took the time to look after us thoroughly and answer all our questions. A truly professional and caring person ❤️ I recommend them 100%! A top-notch team and a wonderful experience. Thank you so much for this marvelous moment.

No complaints whatsoever about the quality of the meal, the welcome, or the charm of the place. Everything was perfect. The staff was very friendly. And we were even offered a complimentary digestif. A must-try, or a must-revisit.

We were so lucky to get a table at Sea Lounge, and what a lovely find! The food was absolutely delicious, the fish tacos were packed with flavour, the ceviche was fresh and beautifully prepared, and the stuffed zucchini was a real highlight. Everything was so fresh, colourful and full of flavour. The location is gorgeous and the whole setting made it such a lovely place to sit and enjoy lunch. The staff were wonderful too, our lovely waitress accidentally forgot to bring our drinks, but she was so apologetic and immediately sorted it out with a smile. A really delicious meal in a beautiful setting with genuinely lovely service. We’d definitely come back! 🌊🐟🌮
