Location & what to see

Villetta San Martino is located in the quiet countryside of Portoferraio, in the renowned Località San Martino on Elba Island. The area is famous for its relaxing and leafy atmosphere, surrounded by the rolling hills of the Tuscan Archipelago National Park, offering a balance between privacy and proximity to the island’s main points of interest.

Just 150 metres from the property lies the historic Villa di San Martino, the summer residence that hosted Napoleon Bonaparte during his exile on Elba, today one of the most visited museums in the region. The geographical location allows quick access to the coast: the famous beaches of Biodola and Scaglieri are just 1.9 km and 2.1 km from the house, while the shoreline of Procchio is 2.8 km away. For those arriving by plane, Marina di Campo Airport is located just 4.2 km away, while the port of Portoferraio, the ferry terminal from the mainland, is about 4.5 km away.

The central location on the island makes the holiday home a convenient base for exploring both the seaside shores and the historical-cultural heritage. In a few minutes by car, it is possible to visit the Medici historic centre of Portoferraio with the Medici Fortresses situated 4.7 km away, or go hiking along the trails of the nearby Monte Perone Pass 7 km away. In summer, the area allows guests to alternate relaxation in sandy coves with dinners in nearby coastal restaurants.
