A very nice campground, surrounded by greenery. Great entertainment, and the staff was courteous and helpful. We stayed in a glamping tent equipped with a bathroom and kitchen—everything was well-maintained. The restaurant was very good, with prices comparable to those of restaurants off-site. The shuttle service was extremely helpful for getting … to Ottone Beach, and the central location makes it easy to reach most of the island’s beaches by car. We’ll be back!

Camping molto bello, immerso nel verde. Animazione super, personale cortese e disponibile. Siamo stati in tenda glamping dotata di bagno e cucina, tutto ben tenuto. Ristorante molto buono con prezzi in linea rispetto ai ristoranti esterni. Il servizio navetta utilissimo per spostarsi alla spiaggia dell'ottone e posizione centrale per raggiungere in auto la maggior parte delle spiagge dell'isola. Ci torneremo!

A beautiful campground, built into the side of a hill. This means there are significant elevation changes, so you do need to be fairly mobile. We stayed in the lodge tents, which were located at the very top. We did have plenty of privacy thanks to the way these tents were arranged. This isn’t true for all the “
” accommodations at the … campground. Others were actually lined up in a row. The only downside of the lodge tent, in our opinion, was that there was no comfortable furniture. Just hard wooden chairs. And there wasn’t a breath of wind, so there were fans in the tent, but ours was incredibly loud. There’s a nice, big pool on-site. The shop and restaurant are fully equipped. Friendly staff, too! They organize a ton of activities, especially for young children. You can reach the beach by shuttle, on foot, or by car—then down some stairs. It’s a shame the bar there closes so early in the evening. Because of that, you can’t really stay there in the evening to watch the sunset. Otherwise, it’s a great location, though it’s a bit remote from the villages. You have to drive everywhere.this is a translation, click here for the original
Mooie camping, gelegen tegen een heuvel op gebouwd. Daardoor veel hoogteverschillen dus je moet wel goed ter been zijn. Wij hadden de lodge tenten en die lagen helemaal bovenaan. We hadden wel veel privacy door de manier waarop deze tenten geplaatst waren. Dit geldt niet voor alle
accommodaties op de camping. Anderen stonden wel echt in een rijtje. Enige nadeel van de lodge tent vonden wij dat we geen relax meubilair aanwezig is. Alleen maar harde houten stoelen. En er is geen zuchtje wind dus stonden er ventilatoren in de tent maar die van ons maakte enorm veel lawaai. Mooi groot zwembad erbij. Winkel en restaurant zijn van alle gemakken voorzien. Vriendelijk personeel ook! Er wordt superveel georganiseerd, vooral voor kleine kinderen. Het strand kun je bereiken via een shuttle, of lopend of met eigen auto en dan via trappen naar beneden. Jammer dat de bar daar zo vroeg op de avond dicht gaat. Daardoor kun je daar niet echt lekker ‘s avonds blijven zitten om de zonsondergang te bekijken. Verder prima locatie, wel wat afgelegen mbt dorpjes. Alles moet je met de auto doen. -

My family and I stayed for 10 days on a campsite with our tent. Everything was wonderful!
A campground with great facilities, a large pool with slides and a hot tub. Engaging entertainment with fun and original evening shows. A well-stocked, clean market with friendly staff.
Clean, new bathrooms. We booked a private bathroom—it was … practically a suite, given how spacious it was, and everything was modern and clean.
For the kids, what can I say—there’s everything and more… a mini-club, entertainment, a playground…
Fitness and yoga activities in the botanical garden were my favorites.
Overall, a campground/resort I’d recommend to anyone.
The shuttle service to the beach was perfect!
Convenient for getting around to Porto Azzurro, Capoliveri, and Portoferraio—it’s practically right in the middle.this is a translation, click here for the original
Io con la mia famiglia abbiamo soggiornato 10 giorni in una piazzola con la tenda. Tutto stupendo!
Campeggio con bei servizi, piscina grande, con scivoli e idromassaggio. Animazione coinvolgente con spettacoli serali divertenti e non banali. Market fornito, pulito con personale gentile.
Bagni puliti e nuovi. Noi abbiamo prenotato il bagno privato, praticamente una suite da quanto era grande e tutto moderno e pulito.
Per i bimbi che dire di tutto e si più...mini club, animazione, parco giochi ....
Attività fitness e yoga nel giardino botanico le mie preferite.
In generale un campeggio/villaggio che consiglierei a chiunque.
Sevizio navetta per la spiaggia perfetto!
Comodo per spostarsi a Porto azzurro, Capoliveri e Portoferraio. Praticamente è a metà. -
