Location
It was a dream - our holiday home, the Quartzo, had everything you could wish for, well furnished, stylish and tasteful down to the last detail. The hosts Laura & Enrico are very courteous, always trying hard and friendly.
The spacious, wonderful, very well-kept garden invites you to linger. The fantastic view of the sea, the idyll a little away from the town center, the magical house, the friendly, helpful hosts, all of this really appealed to us and enchanted us!
Dear Laura & dear Enrico - thank you very much - we'll be back, it was a wonderful holiday with you!
We'd love to come back.
The only place where I spent a holiday where I wouldn't have wanted to change anything, everything was simply perfect.

The place is simply wonderful, totally immersed in nature and at the same time close to the center of Marciana Marina.
During the day we particularly appreciated the sea water swimming pool and the relaxation areas located in various parts of the garden, equipped with tables, benches and hammocks. In the evening, we were able to admire the view which is truly suggestive because from the panoramic terraces, which among other things are equipped with truly unique taste and refinement, you can enjoy a breathtaking view of the gulf below and you can relax chatting underneath the starry sky.
We were in the Turchese apartment, equipped with all comforts, I found much more there than I could have imagined. There is not a detail that has not been thought of to make the stay comfortable and special and in every corner of the house you can perceive great attention towards the guest.
Laura and Enrico are very helpful, pleasant and welcoming hosts and after meeting them in person I understood much more about the beauty that envelops and surrounds you as soon as you enter the Borgo.
Sea view. The two owners are exquisite, helpful and professional people. You can feel all the care and love they put into their project.
Special thanks to the owners and in particular to Laura, capable of looking after the guests discreetly but always with a very kind and attentive look. I highly recommend it: it will certainly be a point of reference for our next holidays on the island.

To reach Borgo dell’Uccellaia, after arriving in Portoferraio, drive to Marciana Marina (16 km). The first tourist place, which you will reach after about 9 km by car, is Procchio, from where you continue towards Marciana Marina. The curvy road leads along the coast to the charming harbor and the village of Marciana Marina. When you reach the village, go straight to the elementary schools (Scuole Elementari). Then follow the signs to Borgo dell’Uccellaia.
The Località Uccellaia can be reached by a paved and illuminated road that ends at the top of the hill. The area is quiet and surrounded by woods overlooking the Gulf of Marciana Marina. It is also a stone’s throw from the village and the sea. In less than 10 minutes on foot you can reach the beach of Fenicia, which is located to the left of the village of Marciana Marina next to the Torre degli Appiani.
In the immediate vicinity are the tennis courts, the municipal swimming pool, restaurants and shops. An ideal place for nature lovers: on foot you can walk signposted paths that lead through the woods and you to spectacular places on the island.
Borgo dell’Uccellaia is located 2.6 km from the very popular Monte Capanne mountain cable car, from which you can reach the altitude of 1019 meters, admiring the morphological silhouette of Elba and enjoying a magnificent view over the entire Tuscan archipelago. If the days are particularly clear, it is also possible to see a section of the Italian coast and Corsica.
