Car hire required?
Depends on your holiday plans. If you are planning to be in and around Caleta, no. If you want to explore the island and want the convenience of having the transport, yes.
The villa is just a 15 minute from the airport by taxi
From the villa, it is a 15 minute flat stroll to the nearest golden sandy beach, supermarket, playground, shops, café and restaurants (Atlántico Centre).
Taxis are readily available and cost approx. 5 euros around Caleta. There is a free coach service from Elba golf hotel, every half hour.
Car hire company?
There are several car hire companies on the island and most have a collection and drop off from the airport counter.
We have always booked via internet with Autoreisen (http://www.arcarhire.com/car-hire/car-hire.php). The condition of the vehicle and price has been competitive and has included the hire of child car seats and an additional driver. Get super cover insurance for peace of mind and reasonably priced.
Autoreisen has a check-in desk at the airport. As you come out of the arrivals hall turn left, check-in and pick up your car keys (and child car seat if booked), walk out of the arrivals hall, cross the road, up the ramp and into the car hire carpark.
Can two families book the villa together?
Yes, with two rooms with double beds and the other two with two single beds as long as the total guests in the party don’t exceed 8. Exception is a 1 toddler below 2-3 years.
What is the pool dimension and heating temperature?
The pool is 8m (L) by 3m (W) and 1.5m deep all the way. The pool temperature is dependent on the ambient air temperature and the usage of the pool cover. At night, covering the pool will ensure a warm pool the following day.
In the winter months (October to May) our pool is heated to warm 28°C. To retain this temperature still relies on the solar cover being on the pool whenever the pool is not in use.
Smoking policy?
The villa has a strict no-smoking policy within the building. Please smoke or vape outside of the building and dispose of your cigarettes in a safe manner. Please do not litter or leave disregarded cigarettes on the floor. This is our family home and we would like to keep it looking and smelling fresh and clean for all the guests we host. We also hope to keep our community litter free and cause no upset to our neighbours.
