A seminar in Corsica,
in a villa of your own.
What you need to know before organising: real capacity, working spaces, seasons, costed budget and access. No spin.
Most seminars in Corsica are held in hotels. That is a default choice, rarely an informed one: you share the venue, you inherit a schedule, and confidentiality stops at the partition wall.
What a private villa does better — and what it does less well.
Confidentiality, for real
One group at a time, no other guests in the building, no staff living in overnight unless requested. For a leadership team, a reorganisation or a negotiation, that is not comfort: it is a working condition.
The informal hours
The heart of a seminar is not the sessions but what happens between them. A shared house produces those moments — breakfast together, the end of the evening by the pool — that a hotel scatters down its corridors.
Large formats
Beyond 14 people accommodated, you have to lodge elsewhere. If you need three simultaneous rooms, a sound and lighting technician or a 50-person plenary, a seminar hotel remains the right choice. We say so plainly.

What the week actually costs, per person.
May, June, September: the right window.
Working at 26 °C, not 34 °C
August is the worst period for a seminar: heat, a saturated island, full flights and peak rates. In May, June and September the temperature allows you to work during the day and dine outside in the evening.
Almost half price
The same week costs €10,906 in low season against €20,505 in August. For identical facilities. It is the single heaviest variable in a seminar budget, and the easiest to arbitrate.
Figari stays served
Direct flights to Figari operate from April to October. In May, June and September flights are plentiful and seats still available at reasonable fares — which is no longer true in August.
Every stay is built with you. Here are the four formats we organise most often — each with its own page.
Executive seminar
Leadership team off-grid: quiet working days, nights on site, decisions taken without listening ears.
Corporate retreat
Several days to bond a team: workshops in the morning, maquis in the afternoon, the long table in the evening.
Client incentive
Reward your best clients or your sales team: private chef, boat outings, evenings in the private club.
Private event
An exceptional dinner, a celebration or a company evening: the villa and its grounds for one night.
A single point of contact, end to end.

Organising a seminar in Corsica
What does a seminar in Corsica in a private villa cost?
For 14 participants over 7 nights, full accommodation at Villa Terra comes to €11,987 in low season, that is €856 per person for the week, or €122 per person per night. This covers the rental of the whole villa (€10,906), end-of-stay housekeeping (€650) and the tourist tax (€4.40 per person per night). It does not include meals, transfers or speakers.
When is the best time for a seminar in Corsica?
May, June, September and early October. The climate is favourable, the island is quiet, flights to Figari remain plentiful and rates are those of low and mid season — €10,906 to €12,208 per week against €20,505 in August. It is also when teams work best: August heat is a handicap for working days.
How many participants can Villa Terra host for a seminar?
14 participants accommodated, in 5 bedrooms. An independent staff studio can house additional personnel. For daytime meetings without accommodation, capacity is higher and is defined with the concierge depending on the format.
Does Villa Terra have a proper meeting room?
The cinema room serves as a screening and presentation room: screen, sound system and complete darkness. The living room, the dining room seating 14, the covered terraces and the pool house serve as additional working spaces, notably for breakout groups. High-speed Wi-Fi covers the entire property.
How do you reach Villa Terra from the mainland?
Figari airport (FSC) is about 45 minutes by road, with seasonal direct flights from Paris, Marseille, Nice, Lyon and several European cities. Ajaccio airport (AJA) is around 2 hours away. Private transfers are arranged by the concierge.
Can the villa be fully privatised?
It is the only rental format offered. Villa Terra hosts one group at a time: the 530 sqm and the 5,300 sqm of grounds are reserved for your group throughout the stay. No other guests, no outside traffic, no staff living in overnight unless requested.
Is a private villa better than a seminar hotel?
It depends on the format. A hotel remains preferable beyond 20 participants, where you need multiple simultaneous rooms or heavy technical services. A private villa suits leadership teams and small groups better: real confidentiality, no other guests, a free schedule and a setting that encourages informal conversation.
2026 rates, whole villa, Saturday-to-Saturday rental. Formats outside a full week are reviewed case by case by the concierge. A firm quote is issued before any commitment.
