> Know the train to Piombino Marittima
You can reach the island of Elba by car where on arrival to Piombino, two different shipping companies (Toremar, Blu Navy and Moby Lines) offer comfortable ferry services that during the tourist season navigate hourly, on a daily basis.
In only one hour circa, the ferries cover the 10Km distance from the mainland arriving in a chioce of ports; Portoferraio, Rio Marina and Cavo. For a more rapid sollution, a Hydrofoil service operates from Piombino to Portoferraio (via Cavo) in only 35mins. of navigation.
This service is available to passengers without automobiles only.
2010, a new navigation company called Blunavy has started its service on the route to the island of Elba.
Our hotel has reached an agreement with this company for a certain number of tickets at a very affordable price: the place for two cars for each route is guaranteed to us at a low cost price; should these two low cost tickets be already sold, other competitive prices would be available.
The ticket price must be paid together with the deposit.
If you are interested in booking with us, please send us an email or call us and specify:
date, run (Piombino – Portoferraio or Portoferraio – Piombino), preferred time of boarding and possible alternative time, number of adults, number of children under 4 years and number of children under 5 and 12 years.
It will be our care to instantly verify the availability and give you a positive or negative confirmation about which tariff will be applied to you: low cost or regular.
In case of availability you will receive your boarding pass by email.
We hope that our effort is valued as a sign of concern to you and may even encourage those who would like to visit Elba maybe in "low" season or maybe for a few days.
