About the home

“Alberi” is a delightful ground floor apartment in a charming villa with a spectacular view of the Gulf of Mola, the mountains of Porto Azzurro, the picturesque old hilltop town of Capoliveri and the Italian mainland.
The apartment, surrounded by pines, palm trees and typically Mediterranean vegetation, is away from traffic and ideal for couples or families with children. The spacious lounge has a double sofa-bed, TV (new for 2013 season!), writing desk, dining table and chairs. Large patio doors lead on to a paved pergola, complete with sun-loungers, deck-chairs and table and chairs for meals "al fresco" or for quietly relaxing overlooking the sea. The open kitchen area has fitted cupboards and worktops, hob with 4 gas rings and cooker hood, refrigerator with freezer compartment, kettle and toaster. In addition, an iron, ironing board and hairdryer are provided for guests.
Air conditioning is available on request.
The main bedroom has a double bed, fitted wardrobe and bedside tables with lamps. Patio doors lead on to the patio with a view of the sea and surrounding countryside. The second bedroom has twin beds or, on request, a double bed.
The tastefully tiled bathroom is fully equipped with a large shower cubicle, WC, bidet, bathroom cabinet and wash basin with mirror.
Garden facilities include table and chairs, sun-loungers and barbecue. The garden area is fully enclosed and ideal for children and/or dogs.
On the beautiful sandy beach of Lido di Capoliveri (within walking distance of the apartment - approx.700 m), there are several cafès, pizza- bars, and restaurants where you can take time off from sunbathing and swimming and enjoy a meal of tasty sea-food, genuine lasagne, superb pizza or a bottle of Elba's white wine. The beach also caters for a variety of water-sports. A mini-market at one end of the beach will supply all your day-to-day needs (anything from postcards and beach-balls to fresh bread and Parma ham) and if you feel like some evening entertainment, try taking a stroll in one of the harbour towns where you can enjoy a delicious Italian ice-cream while looking at the beautiful yachts moored in the harbour. And if you do decide to come without a car, you can always count on a taxi to bring you home to a welcoming well-lit patio where you can enjoy a cool evening drink overlooking the glittering lights in the distance.

Mini-market and newsagent (on the beach) only 700m. from the apartment.
Nearest supermarket, petrol stations, bank, etc. just 1.5 km from the apartment.
Many other supermarkets, shops, restaurants, pharmacies and other amenities in Capoliveri and Porto Azzurro within a distance of 2 - 3 km.

The owner provides detailed directions on how to get to the apartment, but if required, will come and meet guests.

The Tuscany / Island of Elba region

The Isle of Elba is the largest of the seven islands in the Tuscan archipelago (most of which now enjoys National Park protected status) and only 10 km from Piombino harbour on the Italian mainland. It covers an area of 223 sq. km and is renowned for being the greenest island in the Mediterranean, with spectacular mountains alternating with woodland areas, hills covered with typical Mediterranean maquis sloping down to crystal clear sea and vineyards which produce the famous “Elba Bianco” wine. In short, a paradise not only for nature lovers and sun-bathers, but also for horse riders, mountain bikers and trekkers who can explore the mountain trails and even climb the island’s highest peak (Mt. Capanne, 1018 metres). For the less energetic a cable car will take you to the top in the summer months.

There are many places to visit on the island, including the Summer and Winter residences of Napoleon Bonaparte, where he was exiled in 1814, the ruins of an ancient Roman villa, Etruscan and Roman remains and traces of Norman and Saracen invasions in various parts of the island. Elba is also renowned for its minerals and a visit to the old mines at Capoliveri, Rio Marina and Porto Azzurro is warmly recommended.

Many visitors like to combine a holiday on the Island with a few days sightseeing in Florence (only about two hours from Piombino), Pisa or Siena, Lucca or the Garfagnana district.

The Capoliveri area

The quaint little hilltop town of Capoliveri (only 2 km from the apartment) is a hive of activity in the summer months, particularly in the evening, and well worth a visit. It is perhaps one of the most spectacular and characteristic spots on the whole island, offering views over the rest of the island, Corsica, the islands of Montecristo and Pianosa and the Italian mainland. And if you’d like to take a closer look at any of these islands, you can take advantage of the many organized day trips, some of which offer fantastic views of underwater flora and fauna in their glass-bottom boats.

And, if you are feeling even more adventurous, try a session at the Diving Centre on Capoliveri beach which organizes short "expeditions", ideal for anyone with an underwater camera.

On 14 July, Capoliveri celebrates the “Festa dell’Innamorata”, one of the Island’s most fascinating legends which recounts the sad story of two young lovers. In the first decade of May, the “Festa del Cavatore” (Miner’s Festival) is held in honour of the island’s ancient mining traditions, while on the last Sunday in September, the annual Wine Festival is held, when the town’s “rioni” (districts) re-propose the historical setting for old peasant traditions and challenge each other in creating outstanding pageantry, all centred around the main harvest theme. A prize is awarded to the best reconstruction.
Porto Azzurro, only 3 km away, is a delightful old fishing village, now a harbour and fashionable resort, where there is plenty of nightlife.

Car advisable.
