The apartment was really clean and had everything we needed. It is in a great location close to the beach, walking distance into the town and a great play park which my son loved. Francesca was very welcoming and quick to reply to any messages.

We had a fantastic stay and one of the best vacations ever. Francesca and Matteo were wonderful hosts. The location was fantastic for Padulella beach (one of the nicest on the island). The parking within the property was an added bonus (street parking in the area is scarce). In fact, after driving to many beaches on the island, we decided our best option was to leave the car at the villa and walk the 5 minutes to Padulella beach. The villa was spotlessly clean and extremely comfortable with all the amenities described. The well-equipped kitchen, outdoor oven and patio made it very easy for us to cook every night. The garden was lovely and well kept and washing machine also incredibly helpful for a family. We cannot say enough good things about our stay and we would highly recommend it. Grazie Francesca e Matteo.

We couldn’t have asked for a kinder and more attentive host in Francesca; I’d recommend her locations to friends/family and wouldn’t hesitate to come back! She was warm and responsive in her communications from beginning to end (which made her stand out from other hosts when I was searching for a place and had questions up front). She lives nearby as well so is able to respond quickly if something pops up. The house is 1 of 3 in a cluster on a plot of land there, with everyone having their own patio space. The outdoor space being the best part, places to have your meals outside, lounge chairs, a wood-fired oven (!). If you need to do laundry, the area where the clothes line is lined with a wall of jasmine flowers, so you might find yourself wanting to linger a while. The inside was clean and well kept, the beds comfortable, shower pressure was good. Note there is no living room space, which we found ourselves outdoors so much we didn’t mind. The kitchen is minimal but worked for the light cooking we did. The house is in walking distance to a nearby beach, the port, and gelato, etc.

Matteo’s and Francesca’s place was simply amazing. It really made our stay in Elba island special. I guess we will never forget how well we felt at their place. For us is undoubtedly a 5 star rating! 100% recommended. Check-in, check-out were perfectly arranged also according to our needs. Communication with the host was smooth and effective throughout the entire process . The house (a portion of an amazing villa in Portoferraio) was way beyond our expectation. Stylish, super clean, comfortable, and fully equipped with all you can possibly need (air-conditioning, TV, strong wifi, garden, patio, barbecue, private parking etc.). Superb location, close to Portoferraio (main harbour in the island) yet in a very quite and green residential area. Walking distance (15 min) from shops/restaurants and most importantly literally 2 min walking distance from what I believe are among the most beautiful beaches in the island. The so called white beaches like Padulella, Cala dei Frati, Sottobomba etc. It is also a very strategic location to use as a base to explore this wonderful island. I know reviews should also speak about cons, but we really could not find one. One suggestion… if you ever stay at this place try to wake up early at least one morning during your staying and simply walk down to the Padullella beach….you will enjoy one of the most beautiful swim ever.

Wir haben den Urlaub als Familie in der Villa Fiore sehr genossen. Sie liegt in einem ruhigen Quartier und das Zentrum/der Hafen ist trotzdem in 8-10 Minuten zu Fuss zu erreichen. Zwei sehr schöne Strände sind nur 3-5 Minuten entfernt. Alles in allem ein empfehlenswerter Ort.
