Ein Juwel auf der Insel Elba! Absolut empfehlenswert!
Pros:

Ein Juwel auf der Insel Elba. Wir waren vom ersten Moment an so begeistert. Die Lage, die Aussicht, der schöne Garten, die Ruhe… Einfach toll! Alles sehr sauber und gepflegt. Das Essen war sehr gut und das Frühstück ebenfalls. In vorherigen Bewertungen wurde die Zufahrt zur Unterkunft immer wieder bemängelt. Eigentlich lächerlich. Eine einfache Schotterstraße, vielleicht ein paar wenige Schlaglöcher, aber alles in allem gut befahrbar! Da haben wir auf Elba andere Straßen gesehen…
Außerdem wird die Zufahrtsstraße jetzt neu geteert und dann sollte das ganz sicher kein Kritikpunkt mehr sein. Für Ruhesuchende, die nicht unbedingt ein All inclusive Hotel brauchen und locker ohne Pool auskommen, ist das Hotel Santo Stefano ein kleines Paradies! Sehr empfehlenswert!

Ein perfekter Urlaub und unglaublich erholsam.
Pros:

Eine wahnsinnig schöne Unterkunft in perfekter Lage auf der Insel und ein toller Ausgangspunkt für sämtliche Aktivitäten.

Das Personal war unglaublich freundlich, hilfsbereit und zuvorkommend.

Das Frühstück war sehr gut und reichlich, das Abendessen wirklich zu empfehlen wobei die Pasta Gerichte mit Abstand das Beste waren.

Auch das Reisen mit Hund was völlig unkompliziert.

Somit absolut zu empfehlen und schön genug um wieder zu kommen.

Cons:

Nichts. Es war perfekt wie es war.

Veramente un bellissimo posto gestito in modo splendido e con un gran gusto.
Pros:

Stupenda terrazza con vista mare per le colazioni e le cene.
Personale preparato, disponibile e cordiale
Tutto curato nel dettaglio
Pulizia e organizzazione
Colazioni e cene molto varie e molto buone, tutto preparato in cucina con prodotti freschissimi.

Cons:

La posizione, se da un lato è super tranquillo e panoramico e la sera fa piacere goderselo, per ogni necessità ti devi spostare in auto... ma questo all'Elba è abbastanza normale.
