We fell inlove with Elba and the people at Casa over our month of volunteering 🌞 Bety is amazing and super helpful when it comes to island recommendations, volunteer shift preferences ect!! We loved being so close to the beach and getting to know the awesome Casa team. The food truck serves the yummiest food which is a huge bonus. We will miss you guys so much- see you soon!!! Te amo ❤️❤️

I loved every second at casa! My girlfriend and I had the most incredible time, the island is so bellisimo and the beautiful people that work at the campsite are STUNNING. Betty was an incredible host and made sure we had an incredible time. The work was relaxing and fun and the memories I made were priceless I am also now learning Italian and almost fluent. Thank u !

This was my second time at the camping and I had a really nice experience once again. I helped in several things around the campsite but my favourite part was the DIY projects that we did to decorate the food truck area. This experience gave me the opportunity to explore the island as we rented a car between the volunteers for two weekends and I couldn't recommend it enough :) Thank you betty for give me the opportunity to repeat this great experience!! 💗

Returning to CDP for the second time was a joy! I came to experience the island in season and see the campsite come alive - it didn't disappoint. Very grateful to the whole CDP team for the laughs, warmth and flexibility that made it feel like a second family. Evening food truck shifts with live music and great people were a vibe. Outings and local experiences with the team became core memories. Two unforgettable months! Grazie di cuore per tutto – alla prossima :) 🫶

This was my second time at the camping, and it was even better than the first. Visiting in peak season meant everything was open, so I met great people and had amazing experiences. The staff are incredibly helpful and often include you in activities after work. There are endless ways to immerse yourself in the island's culture—it felt like one long holiday. I highly recommend this experience. Thanks for having me back, Betty—wish I didn't have to leave!
