Hotel Villa Ottone, Italy

• Tuscan island idyll: Unwind in the pristine natural surroundings of Elba Island, cast adrift from mainland Tuscany - the perfect setting to escape from the stresses of daily life. The five-star Hotel Villa Ottone embodies timeless charm and shows off incredible seafront views.

• Private beach bliss: With a private beach, gym, wellness centre and outdoor pool, this 19th-century villa is surrounded by lush gardens which extend all the way down to the beach. The full beach service comes with umbrella, sun chairs and towels so all you need to worry about is what to eat for lunch.

• Rest and relaxation: Enjoy long afternoons and exquisite sunsets at the scenic tavern and pool restaurants, or slip away for an aperitif in the villa bar beneath original fresco ceilings that transport you back to the glamour of 1930s Italy. The hotel carries a TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence.
