About us
OUR HOSPITALITY
Le Picchiaie, experience Elba
Essence Hotels begins with a simple idea: helping every guest feel part of the place they have chosen. At Le Picchiaie, that idea comes to life in the hills of Elba Island, among the scents of Mediterranean vegetation and open views over the Gulf of Portoferraio.
Our resort invites you to find your own pace. A morning by the pool, lunch with a view, time to explore the island and the pleasure of returning to your room: different moments brought together by thoughtful hospitality and a sense of place.
We want Elba to be part of your stay: in its landscapes, its flavours and the memories you take home.
Our motto is: Feels Like
Home
- A warm, personal welcome
- Rooms to suit the way you travel
- The flavours of Tuscan tradition
- Views over the Gulf of Portoferraio
- The comfort of feeling at home
