Hotel Fabricia

Set within sprawling gardens and boasting a semi-Olympic pool, two tennis courts, and a private stretch of shore, Hotel Fabricia sits right on the water’s edge of Elba Island, just a 10-minute drive from Portoferraio.

The rooms are bright, modern, and fully air-conditioned, each equipped with a minibar and an LCD TV with satellite channels, while select accommodations add a private balcony.

Each morning, a generous buffet breakfast is laid out in the garden, featuring fresh pastries, cakes, cold cuts, and cheeses. The in-house restaurant serves up hearty Tuscan dishes and timeless Italian favorites.

For relaxation, guests can take advantage of free Wi-Fi in common areas, unwind at the poolside bar under a shady gazebo, or explore the extensive grounds—home to a bowling green, a volleyball court, and a playground for kids.

With complimentary parking on site, the hotel is just a 15-minute drive from Porto Azzurro, and ferries to the Italian mainland depart regularly from Portoferraio Harbour.

Couples especially love the setting, giving it a solid 8.9 rating for two-person getaways.
