We absolutely loved our stay with our two young daughters. The staff were wonderful, food was great and the pools and outdoor space was amazing. Sunset dips in the sea and cocktails on the terrace made for wonderful memories. Thanks so much Elysium - you are fantastic and we cannot recommend you more highly.

Absolutely fabulous. Exceeded all our expectations, especially the staff who were professional and attentive, but friendly and unobtrusive. Also, the food was exceptional and great value. The location was amazing also; incredible pool area which is kept spotless and yet you are right in the seafront with boardwalk stretching in both directions. Couldn’t fault it; a truly memorable stay.

Such a gorgeous hotel. Lovely place and wonderful staff. Disappointed by the spa this is basically an indoor pool and jacuzzi with steam and saunda chambers. Pool and jacuzzi are available to kids most of the day so not a relaxing retreat at all. But the treatment area was nice. Evening music is nice but gets a bit boring. Pool table is availible but not great. Fortunately, there is a strip of bars and restaurants 5 minute walk away for a more lively evening outside of the hotel if you desire. Food and drinks are expensive, but the food is probably worth it- fantastic! Cleanliness, staff service and other amenities all excellent. Overall we really like the hotel and had a wonderful stay.

This property is truly excellent. The pools and location by the sea with garden area are beautiful. Food options and quality are great with the breakfast buffet, pool bar and then quality buffet, Italian, Mediterranean and Asian restaurants in the evening. Amazing sunsets to watch in the gorgeous terrace bar (seaview room definitely worth the extra). However it is the staff that really makes it special. They are so friendly and helpful, remember your room number, preferences and couldn’t do more to help you with a smile and it is everyone from the reception, concierge, pool staff, waiters and waitresses, cleaners etc. They were amazing with my disabled mum (had a mobility room) and 6 month old baby (quality infant items in the room and help creating purée food as she was starting to wean). Will definitely be going back.

Great hotel! Nice rooms, fantastic pool for the kids with toys provided and nice evening entertainment. Though it has a bit of a way to go to modernise the service. For example, to order room service, there’s no menus in the room and I couldn’t find it on the TV. I had to WhatsApp a number to find out where the QR code was on the TV, then when I found it & it finally worked on my phone, it was just a PDF menu & I had to call the room service. It’s a similar story with the QR codes next to the sun loungers, but these can’t be used to order drinks, instead it just brings up a menu and you need to either go to the bar or find a staff member. And we found it a bit odd that there were so many different people that came in to service the room throughout the day, instead of just one. May sound trite & millennial to comment on, though for the price we’d expect this customer journey to be more smooth.

Bed very comfy, pillows are a bit fat. Bath has a very high side which is difficult to get in and there are only 4 rooms available with walk in shower.

Nice calming resort. food and cleaning are cons
We went a couple and a 6mo. Staff were mostly very friendly and kind. Babysitting service was unavailable apart from the creche session. Pool areas were exquisite. The bar is very professional and nice though a bit expensive. Breakfast was excellent. Dinner (as a part of the half-board) was hideous. If you plan on going - we recommend eating lunch\dinner outside. The room was not properly cleaned every day and we had bed bugs in our bed and got bitten to our bones.

Dear reviewer AnonymousThank you for taking the time to review your recent stay so comprehensively, with lots of detail to future travelers. Your comments have all been noted for review but I feel I must comment as follows:Guest with young kids can book the creche and baby sitting upon request ( 24 h in advance ) Regarding the restaurants, I am very surprised that you were so disappointed with our culinary offerings, as we are regularly complimented on both the quality and variety we offer. All comments are welcome, and we will certainly consider your suggestions for improvement, making adjustments where necessary.We look forward to welcoming you for another relaxing stay soon.Best regardsEvdoxia Paschalaki Front Office Manager

A proper 5 star hotel.
We have stayed at the Elysium three times rolling back to 2007. The hotel is very well maintained and is immaculate throughout. It looks and feels brand new. The staff are hugely attentive, with the exception perhaps of the somewhat militant spa staff guarding the indoor pool. On arrival the porters couldn’t move fast enough to help with luggage. Reception has more staff than clients. It’s efficiency at it’s highest order. Around the pool your are looked after. Staff sort your sunbeds out for you (no messing around with bagging them with towels). Sunshades are delivered, as are drinks and cool towels. All the staff are superbly drilled and polite. Breakfast is a similar delight. So well run and organised. We didn’t eat in the restaurants in the evening but have before and there were a similar experience. If I was looking for a downside - the location. Whilst the hotel is off the main road the beach walk has been closed for refurbishment so you are forced to the main road to walk into town. It’s basically a drag strip. The driving is horrendous, and that’s coming from someone who likes cars and a bit of speed. Genuinely awful.

The property itself is excellent, top notch staff, food, facilities and service. The area around the property looks like a deserted lot on the north side with unkept sidewalk. The beach is small and not well maintained. These create some imbalance compared to property itself.

Room was top notch. Food was varied and good. I would have loved to have a deeper pool (more than 1.20m) outside but that is not a deal-breaker when the service and facilities are this good and well kept. It was my first time at any pool where an employee regularly tested the water a few times a day.
