The house La Forana is located just 3 minutes walk from the beach of Chiessi, an idyllic small coastal village of the Elban "Costa del Sole". The beach is made of granite pebbles and beautiful, sweeping granite cliffs. The water is crystal clear and also in midsummer extremely clean. Ideal for snorkeling and swimming! Grocery stores and other services are located in nearby Pomonte (2 km). There is a bar and a restaurant in the village.
In the western part of the island of Elba, one lived traditionally from viticulture and granite mining. Even today, the small village of Chiessi is surrounded by the old terraces where the wine was grown. The old mule tracks, which served to carry the grapes with donkeys from the top of the mountain to the village, have since been converted into hiking trails. From Chiessi there are some well-marked trails and in about 3 to 4 hours you reach the highest peak of the Tuscan archipelago !: Monte Capanne (1018 m).
Chiessi is very sunny and sheltered from north winds and the sun sets directly in the sea!
Getting there
He port of embarkation for Elba is PIOMBINO. From there you can drive to the main port on Elba PORTOFERRAIO (32 km from Chiessi) or to Rio Marina (44 km from Chiessi) or Cavo (50 km from Chiessi). The crossing to Elba takes about 1 hour. The cost for 1 car + 2 passengers varies between about Euro 65 and Euro 95 depending on the season for a one way trip. From Portoferraio to Chiessi you need about 50 minutes. by car.
When you book you get a discount code from me, which you can use online in the link of the ferry companies and with which you can save 20% of the ferry fare for car and passengers round trip.
If you arrive by train: the train station of PIOMBINO MARITTIMA is just opposite the pier. From Portoferraio there are regular buses every hour in the summer to Chiessi.

Ich habe es sehr genossen. Die Lage ist perfekt für ruhige Tage in einem kleinen Dorf an der Westküste. Es ist buchstäblich nur einen Steinwurf vom Meer entfernt.
Das Frühstück ist erstklassig. Hausgemachte Kuchen und Marmeladen sind köstlich. Unglaubliche Ausblicke.
Die Zimmer können etwas einfach und veraltet wirken, aber das ist wirklich nicht der Ort, an dem Sie Ihre Zeit verbringen werden.

Das Hotel Aurora befindet sich in einem kleinen, schönen Dorf namens Chiessi. Der Gastgeber war sehr freundlich. Das Zimmer, das wir erhalten haben (und bestellt hatten), war für 4 Personen etwas zu klein. Es gab einen seltsamen Geruch in der Wohnung, möglicherweise von der Klimaanlage. Das Frühstück war gut und es gab einen schönen Blick vom Hotel auf den Strand und das Dorf. Der Kiesstrand war nur 1 Minute zu Fuß vom Hotel entfernt. Das Schlimmste war die Suche nach einem Parkplatz jedes Mal. Ein sehr kleiner Supermarkt befand sich im nächsten Dorf.
