Villa Padulella

The best thing about the NORTH apartment at Padulella Apartments is how close it is to Capo Bianco and Padulella, two of Elba’s prettiest beaches. They’re under a five-minute walk away, with the apartment about 20 meters from their parking lot. Portoferraio centre is a few minutes by car or around 20-25 minutes on foot. We stayed in the first week of August. The apartment was spotless, nicely finished, and had new furniture and a well-equipped kitchen. Bed, bath, and kitchen linens were included, which isn’t always the case in vacation rentals. The garden is well cared for and has a table and chairs. A couple of deckchairs would have been nice.

The North Apartment was spacious, comfortable, and clean, with a big garden outside. The views are stunning, and you can get to La Padulella beach on foot along a little path from the courtyard. The apartments are also close to the center of Portoferraio, so I recommend them.

This was our second year, and I’m still giving it five stars, though I’d give it ten if I could. The apartment is immaculate and has everything you need, while the garden is cared for down to the smallest detail and frames the sea in so many shades of green. It’s peaceful and beautiful everywhere you look, another holiday we won’t forget. The owners make you feel at home, and leaving feels like leaving a piece of your heart behind. We’ve already booked for next year. A special thank you to Lisa and Gaia, who’ll stay in my heart, and to Matteo too. A hug to your wonderful family, and thanks for everything.

The shared outdoor space is a real treat, with so much attention to detail, and the location is fantastic, only 200 meters from Padulella and Capo Bianco. We stayed in an apartment with a garden. The house itself is simple but practical, and that garden is kept beautifully. Just wonderful.
