Home · Contact · List your business About this listing The Regalia Hotel & Spa, a five-star luxury establishment located in Zonza, Corsica, offers a refined setting for a Passover retreat. Overlooking the turquoise waters of the Bay of Pinarello, this boutique property balances the high-end amenities of a luxury hotel with the welcoming atmosphere of an intimate family home. For the 2024 Passover season, the hotel provides a comprehensive program that focuses on culinary excellence, spiritual fulfillment, and the serene natural beauty of the Corsican coastline.
Positioned as an upscale destination for the Jewish traveler, the hotel emphasizes a quiet, sophisticated experience. The architecture and service are designed to provide guests with a sense of privacy and exclusivity while ensuring all religious requirements for the holiday are met with precision and care. Whether relaxing by the pool or participating in communal holiday celebrations, visitors can expect a high standard of hospitality in one of France's most picturesque island regions.
About the area Situated in the south of Corsica within the commune of Zonza, the property is located in the seaside hamlet of Pinarello. This area is celebrated for its pristine bay and protected natural environment. While Corsica does not have the large, dense Jewish quarters found in mainland French cities like Paris or Marseille, the island has a documented history of welcoming Jewish communities during various periods of the 20th century. Today, Jewish life on the island is primarily centered around seasonal programs and the historic community in Bastia, which houses the Beth Meir Synagogue, a landmark of Jewish heritage in Corsica built in the 1930s.
The Regalia's location provides a peaceful alternative to the more crowded tourist hubs. It serves as a gateway to both the sea and the mountainous interior of the island. Being located in Pinarello allows guests to experience the unique "Mountain in the Sea" geography that defines Corsica, characterized by aromatic maquis shrubland and crystal-clear coastal waters.
Nearby Jewish landmarks Pinarello and the broader Zonza region offer some of the most dramatic landscapes in the Mediterranean. Guests can enjoy the famed Pinarello Beach, known for its soft white sand and shallow turquoise waters, located just a short distance from the hotel grounds. The nearby Aiguilles de Bavella provide a striking backdrop of granite peaks, ideal for scenic drives or light hiking for those wishing to explore the rugged interior of the island.
For those interested in local history, the Genoese towers dotting the coastline serve as reminders of Corsica's strategic maritime past. Porto-Vecchio, a bustling harbor town with a rich history, is within driving distance, offering additional opportunities for sightseeing and coastal walks. The surrounding pine forests offer natural shade and a tranquil environment for those seeking a quiet retreat from the sun.

From lavish Israeli breakfast buffets to elegant plated service on Shabbat and Yom Tov, the dining experience is designed to be a highlight of the stay.
Spirituality is central to the program, with an on-site synagogue hosting daily prayers led by a professional Hazzan. Religious life is further enriched by Kiddushim following services and lectures given by the Rabbi.
