Hotel Antares

Pool, beach and hotel grounds very nicely laid out and well maintained.
Overall a beautiful hotel in a perfect location.
Sufficient parking spaces available with shade roofs.

Unfortunately we had to wait a very long time after arriving at the specified time. Room was only ready more than two hours later than announced.
We also got a different room than booked.
It was in a private house 300m away on the lower first floor of the rear annexe. An apartment with the flair of a converted garage. A bit musty, lots of mosquitoes and vermin. The furniture was very basic and in places very worn, hardly any equipment, no bottle opener, no hairdryer.
But the beds and mattresses were good. Bathroom and shower too, but hardly any water pressure.
Keys were not available for all the patio doors and shutters, which made locking complicated and meant it was usually dark in the apartment.

At dinner on the beautiful terrace, very hard-working and extremely friendly waiters, but despite this, the wrong thing was served several times or the order was completely forgotten.
Food in general and the evening menu were ok and average in taste.

No clear and transparent billing of food and drinks in the bar and restaurant. Everything is charged to the room without comment. At the end you receive a completely confusing final bill in which individual days and individual transactions are no longer visible.

My family (4 people) was on the Island of Elba for the first time and we stayed for a week at the Hotel Antares. It turned out to be a very good choice as it did not surprise us from all points of view. The extreme kindness and professionalism of the staff especially that of the restaurant. Great entertainment for kids. Super clean structure and it is reductive to consider it only a three stars. We used the beach, literally 15 steps from the hotel and also the tennis court in a fabulous location. It will certainly be our choice again if the destination is still the Island of Elba.

Staying at the Antares again this year - 4th year running.
In the simplest terms - Heaven on Earth.
Understated cool with phenomenal staff, food and a beach to die for...couldn't recommend highly enough. Fantastic

The hotel is in a fantastic location. Everything is within reach, with a beautiful sea. The rooms are not recently furnished, but clean and functional. Restaurant with excellent, polite and friendly service. Very good lunch buffet, decent dinner.
Staff always ready for the customer.
Private parking.
Highly recommended

The position was perfect. The beach of Lido Capoliveri is one of the best in Elba. The beach service was good. Also the food was good. One can eat from buffet or can order from menu a la carte.

Very friendly staff, clean rooms, good breakfast and dinner choices! Nice views, private beach, quiet, great place for a relaxed holiday!

Very nice hotel. All the staff are always helpful, kind and very welcoming. In this hotel you can eat in an exceptional way, it was years since I found a hotel with such quality in the restaurant.
I would say it could be a 4 star easily.
Beautiful location.
I only recommend to redo some details of the bathroom, for everything else 10 with honors.
