Island of Elba: where to stay – the Hotel Giardino in Lacona

Introduction

Welcome to Elba, the third‑largest Italian island after Sicily and Sardinia. With an area of about 224 km², Elba offers an astonishing variety of landscapes: golden beaches, pebble coves, Renaissance fortresses, fishing villages and trails through Mediterranean scrub . The island measures roughly 27 km east–west and 18 km north–south and lies only 10 km from the mainland, so it can easily be explored in just a few days . Its mixture of seaside tourism, food traditions, mining history and rich natural heritage have earned Elba a place within the Tuscan Archipelago National Park .

This guide, written by the team at Hotel Giardino in Lacona, takes you on a thorough discovery of the island and our hotel. Throughout the following sections you will find detailed descriptions, frequently asked questions, summary tables and travel advice . As an accommodation provider we only mention our own hotel, while all recommendations for restaurants, museums, beaches and towns are given to help you explore the territory.

Discovering Elba starting from Lacona

Elba surprises with its landscape variety: within a few kilometres you can pass from granite cliffs to long sandy beaches, from fishing villages to vineyards on the hills . The following sections propose an itinerary that starts from Lacona and touches the most characteristic centres of the island, enriched with frequently asked questions and summary tables .

Capoliveri – a medieval village on Monte Calamita

The town and its history. Capoliveri rises 167 m above sea level on the ridge of Monte Calamita . Its origins date back to Roman times, when it was known as Caput Liberum and associated with the cult of Bacchus. Today it is one of the island’s most fascinating centres: a medieval village of narrow vaulted alleys (chiassi), craft workshops and welcoming bars . Walking through the centre you encounter the remains of the Church of San Michele, where Pope Gregory XI celebrated Mass in 1376, and the Alfeo Ricci Museum of Elban Minerals, which displays rare gems such as the prase quartz .

Dream beaches. Capoliveri is renowned for its numerous beaches. Entirely sandy beaches include Barabarca, Calanova, Felciaio, Ferrato, Lacona, Lido, Morcone, Naregno, Norsi, Pareti, Straccoligno and Zuccale . Other beaches, such as Madonna delle Grazie, Margidore and Remaiolo, mix sand and pebbles . A table later in this guide summarises the key features of these bays.

Culture and nature. Nearby you can visit the Sanctuary of the Madonna delle Grazie and the Spanish Forte Focardo, built in the 17th century . For lovers of legends we recommend an excursion on Monte Calamita (413 m); the peninsula is rich in magnetite and popular folklore tells that sailors’ compasses malfunctioned near Punta Calamita . Every October the Grape Festival (Festa dell’Uva) takes place, while in July the Festival of the Innamorata celebrates an ancient love legend with a historical parade and competitions between the town’s districts . Mountain bikers can take part in the Capoliveri Legend Cup, a race across the scenic trails of Monte Calamita .

Portoferraio – the island’s capital

History and fortifications. Portoferraio lies on the north‑eastern coast and is the capital and main port of Elba. Its origins go back to ancient times: Ligurians, Etruscans and Greeks settled here before the Romans, who named it Fabricia . In 1548 Cosimo I de’ Medici transformed the village into the fortress of Cosmopoli, building a defensive system composed of the Falcone, Stella and Linguella forts linked by powerful walls that still protect the city .

Napoleon and the museums. Portoferraio is also associated with Napoleon Bonaparte, who lived here in exile from 4 May 1814 to 26 February 1815. His residences – Palazzina dei Mulini in town and Villa San Martino in the countryside – can be visited . Don’t miss the Foresian Art Gallery, which houses a collection of artworks donated by Dr. Mario Foresi, and the Archaeological Museum at Linguella, displaying artefacts from the late 8th century BC to the 5th century AD . Nearby are the remains of the Roman Villa of Linguella and, across the bay, the Roman Villa delle Grotte .

Porto Azzurro – fishermen and Spanish history

Located in the centre of the Gulf of Mola, Porto Azzurro is a charming fishing village whose current name dates from 1947 when the original “Porto Longone” was replaced . Its sheltered position has made it a safe harbour for ferries and tourist boats . The symbol of the village is the San Giacomo Fortress (also known as Fort Longone), built in 1603 with a star‑shaped plan; it currently houses a prison but some sections are open to visitors . The village spreads at the foot of the fortress with lively Piazza Matteotti lined with shops and restaurants . Wandering through the lanes you encounter the Madonna del Carmine Church and the Sacred Heart Chapel from the 18th century . Nearby attractions include the Piccola Miniera, a reconstructed mine visited by little train, and the Sanctuary of Madonna del Monserrato . Local beaches include Barbarossa, Reale and Rossa with sand, Terranera with pebbles, and Pianotta where sand alternates with rocks .

Campo nell’Elba – between sea and ancient villages

The municipality of Campo nell’Elba occupies the island’s southern and flattest part, stretching from the Gulf of Lacona to Pomonte . Here, within a few kilometres, you can alternate the lively coast – with localities such as Marina di Campo – with the tranquillity of the hillside villages San Piero and Sant’Ilario . This area also includes the Island of Pianosa .

Marina di Campo, once a fishing village, is known today for its vast sandy bay, the longest beach on the island . On the west point stands a cylindrical Pisan tower 25 m high which is now a lighthouse . The beach is appreciated for its golden sand, gentle seabed and shady pine forest , making it ideal for families. Nearby you can visit the sandy beaches of Fetovaia and Galenzana, the pebbly coves of Colle Palombaia and Fonza, and the mixed beaches of Cavoli and Seccheto, where sand, rocks and pebbles alternate . Climbing towards the villages you reach Sant’Ilario and San Piero, characterised by Romanesque churches such as the Pieve di San Giovanni and ancient towers; along the road you find the San Giovanni Tower and the Butterfly Sanctuary .

Marciana – the island’s oldest village

Marciana is a medieval hill village on the slopes of Monte Capanne on the island’s western side . Founded in 35 BC, it is one of the oldest settlements in the archipelago . During the Appiani rule (14th–16th centuries) it flourished; the Pisan Fortress with its four towers and the civic buildings that housed the mint and foundry are testimony . From the fortress you enjoy panoramic views of Monte Capanne (1019 m) and the coast . Notable churches include the Romanesque Pieve of San Lorenzo, destroyed by the Turks in 1554, and the Church of San Cerbone, built in honour of the saint who sheltered here in the 6th century . The Civic Archaeological Museum in the Palazzo del Pretorio conserves finds from prehistory to the Villanovan culture .

Marciana Marina – the “little Marseilles”

Separated from Marciana only in 1884, Marciana Marina is the smallest municipality on the island . The village develops along a narrow coastal strip enclosing a bay; behind it rise Monte Giove and Monte Perone, creating a scenic backdrop . In the past Marciana Marina was an important commercial port, earning the nickname “Little Marseilles” . Today the ancient harbour is popular with sailors. Highlights include the 16th‑century Appiani Tower, the Church of Santa Chiara, and elegant 19th‑century villas along the promenade such as Villa Anselmi, Villa Leonardi and Palazzo Fossi . The picturesque Cotone quarter, the original settlement, still preserves the Etruscan imprint in its name .

Rio – mines and castles between hills and sea

The young municipality of Rio, created in 2018 from the union of Rio Marina and Rio nell’Elba, encompasses hills scented with Mediterranean scrub and the crystal waters of the eastern coast . The area is famous for its long tradition of iron mining, begun by the Etruscans and continued to modern times; the red‑coloured hills testify to the ancient mines . To learn more about mining history you can visit the Archaeological Museum of the Mining District in Rio nell’Elba and the Minerals and Mining Art Museum in Rio Marina . The latter exhibits minerals and faithful reconstructions of mining environments . Beyond industrial heritage, the municipality offers monuments such as the Church of San Rocco, an oratory from 1570, and the Port Tower, a watchtower erected in 1534 . Near the historic centre of Rio nell’Elba you find the 16th‑century public washhouses fed by the Canali spring . A recommended hike leads to the Castle of Volterraio, an 11th‑century Pisan fort overlooking the bay of Portoferraio .

Experiences in nature

Elba is not just about the sea: the inland and hills offer hiking routes and breathtaking panoramas. Here are some suggestions to try during your stay .

Excursion to Capo Stella

The Capo Stella promontory separates the Gulfs of Lacona and Stella. A scenic loop trail of about 6.6 km (184 m elevation gain) lets you circle the peninsula in roughly two hours . The walk crosses Mediterranean scrub and offers numerous viewpoints: the highest point, Monte Capo Stella, reaches 141 m, while the lowest is 5 m above sea level . The trail is easy and can be walked year‑round; wear hiking shoes and take care on wet ground . From Hotel Giardino you can reach the trailhead on foot in minutes .

Ascent of Monte Capanne

At 1 019 m, Monte Capanne is the highest peak in the Tuscan Archipelago and offers a 360‑degree view of Elba and neighbouring islands . The easiest way to reach the summit is from Marciana, where a yellow cable car takes you close to the top; alternatively you can hike the CAI 101 trail through chestnut woods and granite outcrops . From the summit the panorama stretches from Pianosa to Corsica . The visit can be combined with the historical tour of Marciana and the archaeological museum .

Trekking and biking on Monte Calamita

The Monte Calamita promontory offers panoramic trails and ancient mines. The magnetite‑rich ground has inspired legends about shipwrecks and wayward compasses . Today the paths are popular with walkers and cyclists; the Capoliveri Bike Park offers routes of varying difficulty, while guided visits reveal abandoned mines and the museum . During the Capoliveri Legend Cup the best bikers race along these trails .

Trip to Pianosa and other islands in the park

From the port of Marina di Campo there are daily excursions to Pianosa, a small gem with prison history and unspoilt beaches . Day trips also visit other islands of the Tuscan Archipelago National Park – Capraia, Giglio and Montecristo – allowing you to appreciate protected marine environments and snorkel in crystal waters .

Art, history and museums

Elba’s cultural richness is demonstrated by museums, fortresses and archaeological sites spanning from the Neolithic to the modern era .

Medicean fortifications of Portoferraio

Portoferraio’s defensive system includes three forts – Falcone, Stella and Linguella – connected by walls and walkways built from 1548 . Designed by architects Bellucci, Camerini and Buontalenti on the orders of Cosimo I de’ Medici, the impressive complex responded to the need to defend the island from sea attacks . From Forte Falcone there is a wonderful view of the Piombino channel , and the fortress hosts exhibitions and temporary displays .

Napoleonic villas

The two residences of Napoleon Bonaparte on Elba are essential to understand his period of exile. Palazzina dei Mulini, on the headland at Portoferraio, was his main residence and preserves period furnishings, memorabilia and terraced gardens. Villa San Martino, set in the countryside a few kilometres away, served as his summer home; both villas are open to the public and host exhibitions dedicated to Napoleon .

Forte Focardo and Spanish fortresses

On the headland closing the Bay of Mola stands Forte Focardo, built by the Spanish in the 17th century . Its strategic position allowed control of two stretches of sea and protection of nearby Porto Azzurro. Not far away is the San Giacomo Fortress (also known as Fort Longone), built in 1603 with a star‑shaped plan . Although today it houses a prison, part of the fortress can be visited with guided tours .

Churches and sanctuaries

Among the most significant religious sites are the Sanctuary of the Madonna delle Grazie, which houses Marcello Venusti’s painting Madonna del Silenzio ; the Madonna della Neve Church in Lacona, built in the 16th century by monks from the Abbey of Vallombrosa ; the San Lorenzo Church and San Cerbone Church at Marciana ; the Santa Chiara Church at Marciana Marina ; and San Rocco Church at Rio Marina .

Mining and archaeological museums

Elba’s mining importance is testified by several museums. In Rio nell’Elba the Archaeological Museum of the Mining District displays finds and minerals illustrating the evolution of iron extraction from Etruscan times to the present . In Rio Marina the Minerals and Mining Art Museum exhibits Elban minerals and reconstructions of mining tunnels . In Marciana the Civic Archaeological Museum preserves prehistoric, Etruscan and Roman artefacts and materials from shipwrecks .

Maritime museums and maritime traditions

In Capoliveri the Sea Museum tells the story of the Polluce shipwreck through recovered objects – cabin sets, jewellery, coins and furnishings – and is complemented by the Alfeo Ricci Mineral Museum displaying beautiful gems . At Marciana Marina, maritime tradition is tied to tuna fishing: the village houses one of the last active tuna traps and still remembers the historic mattanza (tuna massacre) .

Events, traditions and gastronomy

Elba’s culture is expressed through festivals, legends and flavours. Here are some unmissable events and specialities during your holiday .

Grape Festival and Festival of the Innamorata in Capoliveri

In October Capoliveri divides into four districts (Fosso, Torre, Fortezza and Baluardo) that compete during the Grape Festival, with costume parades, floats and tastings celebrating the wine tradition . On 14 July the Festival of the Innamorata takes place: a historical procession winds through the village to the beach of Innamorata, where crews compete to commemorate a love legend .

Legends of Monte Calamita

Monte Calamita is shrouded in legend: according to local stories, the magnetite attracted the metal parts of ships, causing shipwrecks . Today, although such tales are evocative, excursions on the promontory allow you to observe magnetic phenomena that alter compasses while listening to stories of miners, pirates and hidden treasures .

Food and wine: wines and traditional dishes

Elban cuisine blends rustic tradition and sea produce. Dishes to try include cacciucco (fish soup), gurguglione (vegetable ratatouille), sbrinciolato (dry biscuit) and sweet schiaccas . The hotel’s cuisine reproduces some of these recipes, pairing them with local wines such as Aleatico and Moscato di Capoliveri, an aromatic golden wine appreciated for centuries . Take advantage of the à la carte menu to enjoy specialities based on fresh fish and meat from Tuscan farms .
