Discover the island of Elba
A dramatic landscape interspersed with verdant hills & picturesque villages, and a genuine warmth - both owing to its Mediterranean climate and to its wonderful people - the island of Elba is a truly fantastic place.

Elba is rightly known for its gorgeous sandy beaches. There is plenty here to please beach lovers and water sports enthusiasts: Kayaking across smooth azure waters, so clear, you can see the fishes play in front of your bow, relaxing & catching the rays on Ghiaie, Padulella or Sansone Beach & the absolutely stunning Spiaggia di Capo Bianco... People at home will think you're in the Caribbean!

History buffs & photographers alike will marvel at the Fortifications of Portoferraio (built by the notorious Medicis). Start early to climb the Forte Stella for amazing panoramic harbour views. Elba is also famous as the site of Napoleon Bonaparte's imprisonment, and visitors can still visit the places where he resided.

To make the most of your holiday, we have found you a friendly, top-rated stay in one of the loveliest areas of the island: The Villaggio Innamorata - Villa Gisella is located in picturesque Innamorata, just steps from the beach, and within easy reach of the fascinating Miniere di Capoliveri and the lovely Spiaggia di Lacona.
