Capoliveri Legend Cup

We stayed here in a cabin/static caravan thing and it was great. The staff were Really great and could you get out site is arranged in a valley full of lush tropical vegetation with the entrance at the bottom in the middle surrounded by reception, the bar, the restaurant and the super market (good value). If I was staying there again, I’d go for the top end safari tents which have the best place on the site in that they are near the pool and have lovely view down the valley. The restaurant is ok, the bar is fine and serves good lunches but the pool with its slides is great. Elba has loads of amazing beaches with excellent snorkelling conditions. Be aware that many beaches are pebbles so take rubber shoes. We drove and stopped in Obernai, Lugano and near Parma before getting to the ferry. By the way get to the ferry on time or it will leave! Elba is amazing and we all loved it.

We stayed in a Diamante and are a family of 4. Our pitch was ideal for us being close to the swimming pool and near the amenities of the campsite. We thoroughly enjoyed the lamination which was excellent for the kids. It was all very welcoming. I would come back again and recommend to other families.

Large Family Campsite 15 mins from Portoferraio on the Isle of Elba. The site sits in a steeply side valley covered in a lush woodland providing huge amounts of shade and cover over all the pitches. A mix of camping pitches, camper and motorhomes pitches and lodges plus other facilities including large pool with slides, children’s pool, restaurant, shop and tennis court. Programmes of activities are also available. There is also a little minibus which ferries people to the local stony beach about 500ms away and a programme of evening entertainment at the pool. Toilets (mainly European style) and showers are placed around the site and rarely busy. Cleaned regularly. Very popular with the Dutch and families with a well stocked shop and pleasant restaurant with inside and outside facilities.Main issues are that the campsite is very stepped sided so walking from the bottom to the top for older people or those with mobility issues and possibly young children unless in buggies. Getting the right pitch is worth some researchThe roads are steep and narrow so parking can be tricky and movement around the campsite for larger mh’s and camper vans needs care. Additionally access to your pitch can sometimes be tricky due to parking on the access roads.Finally the location is beautiful with a great view over the Bay and parts of Elba but there is no village or restaurants nearby to walk or promenade to in the evening without moving your vehicle. The nearest places, Portoferrairo or Porto Azurro are 15 mins drive or a taxi ride away.

We spent 10 days here (two adults and two children) in a Diamante bungalow. It was an excellent accommodation, fully equipped with all we needed, and very comfortable. Great view from the veranda, the breeze was constant and much welcomed (we also had A/C inside which in the heatwave we experienced was a life saver). The village is very safe, our two children (5 and 7) could easily go from the bungalow to the baby club without any concern. One other point of excellence is the staff that manages the entertainment: OUTSTANDING!! the girls in charge of the baby club (4-12 years old) were amazing, children loved it, they had many activities and the international aspect of the village made for a great mix of languages and culture. We will definitely go back! There is a mini market in the village, fully stocked with all you may need at very normal prices, but in any case a larger convenient store is only 5 min drive away. The only thing that is not super is perhaps the beach, it's a public one, not too far, it is quite small and the sea is not the best of Elba. We didn't mind that at all as we spent most of the time at the pools.

Stayed for 2 weeks in a Diamante chalet with my family of 5. The chalet is small, but big enough because we can stay outside on the terras because of the beautiful weather. The chalet has airco and that's great at night as temperature doesn't drop below 20 degrees. On forehand we did not know what the inventory would be and we expected a dishwasher , that was not present. Not a big problem of course. There is a very nice swimming pool with 3 slides that the kids loved. The slides close between 13 - 15, but the swimming pool stays open. Everybody wears a cap, at first it's a bit strange, but you get used to it soon. I would specifically like to mention the Just Friends Animation Team with Emanuel, Nunzio, Yuna, Matteo etc. that made this holiday unforgettable. They make you feel at home straight away and they work their ass of to give everyone a good time. Elba is beautiful, loved it here!
