Overview
by Allison Tibaldi
At Villa Rodriguez on the Tuscan island of Elba, the multi-lingual staff treat guests like long lost relatives. This seasonal family-run hotel is located on a lovely stretch of soft sand and calm blue sea. Lush greenery, including palm trees and oleander, surround the property. Rooms are simple, uncluttered and functional with everything you need and nothing you don’t. Sports, including sailing and mountain biking, can be arranged. The Mediterranean surf is usually bathtub gentle, making it just right for little swimmers.
Three homemade meals are served each day at Villa Rodriguez. A low-tech bell rings when it’s dinnertime and the fresh feast begins. Breakfast and lunch are equally delicious. It’s the perfect place to experience a dash of la dolce vita.
