Beaches, and nearby towns Besides the magnificent Lido di Capoliveri beach there is a wide variety of other nearby beaches to choose from: sandy, rocky, secluded, all with crystal clear water.
The quaint little hilltop town of Capoliveri (only 4 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 mainland.
And if you want to visit any of these islands, why not take advantage of the many boat trips which will take you there and back in just one day, some of which offer fantastic views of underwater flora and fauna in glass-bottom boats.
Porto Azzurro, only 3 km from the apartment, is a delightful old fishing village, that is now a harbour and fashionable resort, where there is plenty of nightlife.
Bars and restaurants Numerous excellent bars and restaurants on the beach and in the little towns of Capoliveri and Porto Azzurro, where you can enjoy a glass of wine overlooking the bay or dive into a plate of mussels "alla marinara". And if you prefer a pizza, we recommend "Pizzeria Giuseppe" in Porto Azzurro for the best pizza in Italy!
How to get to Elba British Airways, Alitalia, Ryanair, Easyjet and many others all operate regular flights to Pisa and Rome Airports from the UK and various other European countries.

Why is Lupain Holiday Rentals the only holiday rental company to verify the ownership of holiday accommodation? Research has shown that not all advertisers are genuine. There have been cases where people have booked holiday accommodation only to find out it does not exist.
This sort of ‘scam’ is hard to comprehend but these days fraudsters are coming up with ever more imaginative ways of obtaining money by deception from innocent people like you. We do not want holidaymakers who book with us to fall victim to this type of scheme. Money is mostly hard earned we know, so taking a holiday is usually a major expense. In addition, we do not want you to remember us for a shattered dream.
Therefore, in order to protect you we have introduced our Owner Verification Scheme. We ask all holiday home advertisers to submit proof that they own the property they are advertising. Only when we are satisfied that an advertiser and their property is genuine do we add our Green Shield to their property advert. Apart from being a deterrent, it also encourages advertisers to make sure they verify their property, giving you peace of mind when you make your booking.
If you want to make a booking look for the Green Shield on the top right of the property advert, if you do not see our Green Shield it may mean we have not yet completed the verification process. We normally complete this process within a few days if no verification is forthcoming the advert is removed.
We take this Owner Verification Scheme very seriously for your protection. If you have any doubts about the validity of an advert or misrepresentation please contact us with your concerns.
Please note, Lupain Holiday Rentals does not verify the advertisement content placed on this website by property owners, nor do we offer any guarantee as to the correctness of the advertising information placed on this website by third parties.
