The staff are the most helpful and friendly people on the island. The view is spectacular and the restaurant buffet is superb. The pools and private beach too are perfect. The speedboat shuttle service to Porto Azzuro is also very prompt and swift. I'd return to this hotel again. The hotel is quite dated in design. Overall it's also slightly expensive.

The swimming pool is very nice and the kids playground for small kids it's a plus. Our 2 year old son enjoyed a lot these facilities. Didn't like the smell of cigarettes the room had. Asked reception to check and they send the cleaning lady with a spray to try to make the smell better. Eventually we found out the smell was coming from the air entry from the bathroom. This put me off a lot about the hotel and the fact they didn't change our room, the shower and the safe were not working but the hotel solved it quickly. Our stay there was ok but the hotel was too business like for our taste.

Great view of Porto Azzuro Hotel needs major refurbishment (dirty halls, furniture,....) and proper cleaning. Even if breakfast is until 10:30, if you come at 10, choice of food is limited. And as English speaking guest, you sometimes feel not to be the preferred client personal...

It is not a 4 star hotel but rather a 2.5 or 3 star hotel. It is a bit dated and tired, but in general relatively clean. Sadly, it is in better shape than the other hotels I have seen on Elba, which is a mass and low end tourism destination. The nice feature of the hotel is the private beach which allows you to stay away from the loads of cheap tourists that plague the public beaches. Welcome to Italy I guess. Lord I miss the usa east coast beaches... The common areas of the Hotel really need a complete renovation / upgrade. Tired and not so clean.

This hotel's location is what stands out from the rest. We had a room with a balcony overlooking a bay and out to sea and the view was gorgeous. The room was small but fairly comfortable. Breakfast buffet was quite good for a 4 star hotel. The half board was reasonable value but we felt the dinners were ordinary. The hotel is off the main road but there is a bus nearby and a water taxi across the bay. Staff were very friendly and efficient. It has a lift which goes down to its own private beach was was great. We thought the daily tariff was expensive for a hotel that is fairly shabby and old, although we did enjoy ourselves. The rooms are quite small. The hotel needs renovating.

Good location between port town of Porto Azzuro and the hill town of Capiloveri. The pool is fine and taxi boat from the hotels beach to the port is great, though you need a car on this island if you want to get around. In general we were disappointed with the hotel, It's a bit 70's 'old-school', in need of a refurb. It lacks charm and to be honest I think is overpriced. The breakfast is pretty average as well. There's nothing bad but for it's overpriced given our expectations

The view Food was terrible. I tried to cancel halfboard after the first night but they would not let me due to booking with booking.com. Paid extra for a superior room but was still in a very small room. My wife got a facial which was meant to last 20mins but only lasted 10 because the therapist was late.

The view from our balcony. Amazing sea view! The resturant was very confusing for English speakers due to the lack of English speaking waiters/waitresses. The resturant was very unorganized and over priced. Dinner menu contain no prices, and to ask was impossible. Also, the room was very nice and we had an amazing view. The price was a little ridiculous for what you get. I was expected a great private beach, and when asking front desk staff upon arrival he mentions it is nasty and good for fishing only. We checked it out and it was not the nicest beach. Lots of rocks, moss, and trash.

The staff was very helpful with any need; always friendly and caring. Their private beach area is wonderful and very well cared for and clean. If you want quiet time, this is the place for that. The location to the "town" area is a little difficult...but there is a way to get to the town by a small boat and he even let us "drive" the boat!

Really enjoyed it and it exceeded our expectations. The only thing that was disappointing was the attitude of the man in the kids club. He only liked boys over about 8, so our 5 year old daughter he excluded. Also very unimaginative activities. everything else wonderful!

Sehr freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal an der Rezeption. - Auskünfte in englischer oder deutscher Sprache sind kein Thema. - die Lage des Hotels ist gigantisch - die Einrichtungen und Anlagen sind OK - das Essen HP (Dinner) ist zu empfehlen - empfehlenswerte Zeit zur Buchung ist die Nachsaison im September/Oktober -> weniger Betrieb, weniger Hitze, geringere Preise

Lage Das Hotel ist erheblich renovierungsbedürftig. Obwohl als Leistung inbegriffen, war der Fitnessraum gesperrt. Außerdem fand an drei Tagen ein Oldtimer-Rennen statt. An einem Tag führte der Kurs bis Mitternacht an unsrem Hotel direkt vorbei. Diese Informationen hätten wir im Vorfeld haben müssen, dann hätten wir nicht gebucht.

Die Lage und Zimmer mit Blick aufs Meer (ansonsten Blick auf den Parkplatz); eigener Strand; großer Parkplatz ohne Parkprobleme; Die Wände sind so dünn, dass man sogar Gespräche aus dem Nachbarzimmer oder das Schnarchen aus dem Nachbarzimmer ganz deutlich hört, was den Erholungswert sehr einschränkt. Frühstücksbuffet: wenn man spät kommt, ist nicht mehr alles da, nur eine Käsesorte

Ottima accoglienza. Esternamente non si presenta molto bene, ma all'interno, specie sul lato mare ha una vista molto interessante. Valido ogni settore del personale. Bellissima la spiaggia con l'animazione per I bambini. Adatto però a famiglie con bambini che sappiano nuotare. Bella e panoramica la piscina ed il bar sul tetto la sera. Ottimo anche il servizio boat taxi.

Die Parkplätze sind in ausreichender Zahl und kostenlos verfügbar. Meeresblick vorhanden. Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis katastrofal. Das Hotel sieht wie ein unrenovierter Plattenbau aus den neuen Bundesländern 5 Minuten vor dem Abriss. Es gibt kein Strand im gewöhnlichen Sinne, sondern eine Holz-Stahl-Konstruktion von der das Meer erreicht werden kann.
