Portoferraio, the capital of the Island of Elba, is an economic and cultural hub whose growth can be attributed to its mining activities. Though its mining industry is no longer robust as it used to be back in the days, the town has remained a popular summer destination for most Italians and travelers from other parts of Europe. It is home to interesting structures, such as Chiesa di Santo Stefano Alle Trane, Chiesa Reverenda Misericordia, Bastioni Medicei, and Castello del Volterraio. History buffs will appreciate visiting Fort Stella and Forte Falcone. To enjoy the town’s laidback and old-world atmosphere, you can simply troll around Centro Storico di Portoferraio. If a trip to this beautiful area is in the works for you, then read below for the best Airbnb vacation rentals in Portoferraio, Italy.
