In the heart of Elba Island, in the picturesque setting of Portoferraio, lies the B&B Aethalia, where the tranquility of nature meets the comfort of family hospitality. Surrounded by the greenery of the Tuscan Archipelago National Park, this family-run establishment offers a unique panoramic view that extends 360 degrees, providing moments of pure contemplation and relaxation.

The rooms, carefully curated by owner Massimo and his mother Nunzia, reflect warmth and hospitality that make every guest feel at home. The strategic location allows guests to reach some of the island's most beautiful beaches, such as Sottobomba and Capo Bianco, in just a few minutes, while the center and port of Portoferraio are only 1.5 kilometers away, thus offering the convenience of easy access to local services and attractions.

Every morning, guests can enjoy a hearty breakfast prepared with fresh, local products. Among the delights are pastries, local cold cuts, and dishes made to order, a great way to start the day. In the garden, an oasis of serenity and beauty, the B&B also offers recreational spaces, such as a foosball table and a ping pong table, ideal for moments of fun.

For those who desire a more independent culinary experience, Aethalia provides a well-equipped kitchen where guests can prepare their private meals. Although not all rooms are air-conditioned, the establishment is designed to maximize comfort and relaxation, away from the noise and chaos of everyday life.

B&B Aethalia is not just a place to stay, but a true lodging experience, enriched by the passion and dedication of its managers. Here, every detail is designed to offer sincere and warm hospitality, thus facilitating the creation of unforgettable memories and moments of sharing that will remain in the hearts of every guest.

In reality, I should give two different ratings to the facility: 9 for the first eight nights, 3 for the last two. Massimo and the staff are very kind and helpful. The location is beautiful, above Portoferraio with a lovely view of the gulf and in 5 minutes by car you reach the center. Beautiful garden very well maintained with comfortable private parking. Breakfast served in the garden under the shade of two very lush olive trees with a view of Portoferraio and the sea. The room for the first 8 nights was nice, equipped with air conditioning, large screen TV, refrigerator, safe, large wardrobe, spacious windowed bathroom that is not always found in these accommodations. For the last 2 nights we were transferred to another room. Massimo told us it was an attic room but it was still equipped with everything like the other rooms. It is true that it has everything if not more: 2 TVs, fridge, kitchenette, 2 bathrooms. The problem is that it is VERY attic-like, with an average height of perhaps 170 cm. I am 187 cm tall (and for this reason I do not consider myself out of shape) so I could only stand upright in the center of the room, otherwise I had to move bent. Moreover, the room is very dark and hot, being an attic, in fact it is here that we had to activate the air conditioning even at night. The bathroom adjacent to the room is equally low with a very small access door, the other, on the ground floor, is accessible via a very steep, narrow staircase with narrow steps. Our advice is: feel free to stay at Aethalia because it is nice, but do not be given the ROOM ABOVE as it is uninhabitable, moreover it is not worth the mere difference of 10 € less compared to the other room.

Massimo, a guarantee for my holidays. Originally from Elba Island, I have been living in Pisa for years and spent my week in complete relaxation and tranquility at Aethalia B&B. Everything perfect from breakfast to very accurate cleaning. Nothing to complain about, just compliments and good luck for the season. Greetings.

The bed and breakfast is in a strategic location, very close to the most beautiful beaches on the island. The structure is very well maintained by the manager Massimo, who takes care of everything, the breakfast is excellent, and the stay was wonderful for us.

Massimo, the manager, was really kind and helpful... besides being very nice! The B&B is about 2 km away from the center, but the view and tranquility are worth it, not to mention that parking near the center was not difficult to find. Recommended B&B!

Even this year the stay was very pleasant, thanks to the tranquility of the location where you can enjoy excellent relaxation. A special thanks to the management which with sympathy, availability, attention, taste, alternative and hospitality give a very welcome touch of familiarity. The right vacation in the right place that regenerates you. Claudio and Vanessa.
