This beautiful apartment, in an early-1900s palace located in the immediate vicinity of Portoferraio’s historic old town, enjoys an excellent position just a few steps from all local services. The white beaches of Ghiaie and Padulella, the Medici Darsena, the port and the main square are reachable within minutes on foot. A careful, well-executed renovation has restored the charm and refined elegance of bygone times; at the same time, refurbishment using modern, high-quality materials has made the rooms relaxed and comfortable. Warmed by natural oak flooring, the apartment is laid out on a single level and consists of an entrance hall leading to the living area with magnificent sea views and to the adjoining kitchen, which also overlooks the sea. The sleeping area includes two very large bedrooms, a bathroom, a laundry room and a walk-in wardrobe. Thanks to the large windows, this very bright and well-ventilated apartment is ideal to live in even in winter, becoming a place that embraces and warms us on slow, quiet winter days. All rooms, except the second bedroom, face the sea on the north coast and offer a wonderful view. High, gently vaulted ceilings with original stucco rosettes, restored double-leaf doors, warm colors and attention to detail are just some of the elements that make this splendid apartment so valuable.
The most populous municipality on the island of Elba and also its main town: as the seat of numerous public and private institutions and as a vibrant hub for arriving and departing sea traffic, Portoferraio combines a perfect blend of history and tourism, offering some of the island’s most beautiful and impressive beaches.
On arrival by sea, travelers enjoy a spectacular view of the Medici Darsena, Forte Falcone, and Forte Stella. At first glance, the city’s Renaissance charm stands out.
When visiting Portoferraio’s old town, in addition to interesting historical monuments and sacred sites, you will discover narrow, winding stepped alleys that open onto small panoramic piazzas, old houses with flower-decked balconies, and atmospheric corners where you meet locals ready to share anecdotes and curiosities about island life.
Portoferraio is a 25-minute drive from Marina di Campo, 15 minutes from Procchio, 20 minutes from Capoliveri and Porto Azzurro, and 20 minutes from Campo Airport, which in summer offers connections to the airports of Pisa and Florence as well as to Milan Linate and Lugano.
