I booked this after reading mainly positive reviews and the amenities onsite. Then before I travelled the reviews had got alot more negative and gave me cause for concern. Those concerns were very quickly quelled on arrival. Overall we had a lovely stay and will definitely return. 

Rooms - we stayed in a basic room. They are basic. Next time I would pay extra to stay in a better room. It was ok but a little small, the bathroom in particular. No issues with noise, kept clean, towels changed regularly and air con very effective. 

Food - the best all inclusive food I’ve ever experienced across Europe. Granted, if you’re looking for mass produced fast food and standard all inclusive produce this isn’t the hotel for you. The choice was limited however even as a fussy vegetarian I never struggled to find something to eat and we stayed for two weeks. Fresh Greek salad, tzatziki and local Greek dishes every day were a real treat. The desserts were probably the worst part but if they had made baklava every day I would have been delighted. Maybe ice cream at dinner for the kids would be a nice option too. Good range of themed nights as well. The soft drinks weren’t great, the coke light was hit and miss depending what bar you got it, we bought our own water as the hotel water wasn’t nice but it’s cheap so it didn’t bother wasn’t

Amenities - this is the real sell for me. Never experienced a hotel of this size with so much on site. The gym is great. Yes it’s extra charge to use but it’s basically a private gym and well equipped. The addition of heavier dumbbells would make it perfect. The water park was fantastic. Never busy and kids happy to play in there all day. Very peaceful and relaxed atmosphere. 

Staff - they were all lovely, nothing too much trouble and very friendly and welcoming. 

Location- the village is quiet, there’s not much to do but buses to Lindos/pefkos are cheap and run regularly. Worth a visit. 

Some things of note are that the hotel doesn’t provide beach towels but they will give you a discount on ones at the shop next door. Also the hotel provide a fantastic laundry service for 10 euros for a big bag. Really good deal. 

Overall we had an amazing time and cannot wait to come back. Highly recommend. Amazing place and a few tweaks and it would be perfect.

Amazing!

Upon arriving I was greeted extremely polite by reception. I eas shown the notice board with times for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, snack times. Shown to my room the pool bar by the swimming pool the guy running it was very polite. I would like to try and spell his name but would get it wrong. The restaurant staff would go above and beyond to keep the restaurant clean and tidy. I was moved rooms but upgraded. I did lose my key and staff were nice enough to give me a new key for £20 until I found my key. Upon finding it I was refunded. I made many friends while I was there all different nationalities. The bar man Nicolas was very funny qnd very pleasant yo be around. My holiday was fantastic thank you ellia 

Amazing

Okay so I’ll start with the price I paid £581.00 in total so that’s for easyJet flights (good daytime flights) then I booked the all inclusive accommodation through Thomas cook (little tip don’t assume that a package deal is the best value as they rarely are) also you don’t need a rep why pay for that service? Any issues the hotels will sort for you. 

We had 2 separate sleeping areas as was for myself and my 15 year old son we did have an issue with the first room (1414) but spoke to the night guy on the reception (nice guy) who told us to go back to reception first thing which we did and after a little discussion we were put into a much better room ( no extra cost) The pools were good (beer and burger) mini splash park was a good bonus to have access to ( except the miserable barman seriously this guy couldn’t smile 😃even if you paid him! 😆 so he was Mr Happy 😊 all other staff at the hotel were good, young guy working the main pool bar also Nikolas on the evening bar lovely guy and the maids ( Maria) is lovely also and the reception staff and maintenance guys too, The food was very good and I’m well travelled across the Greek islands, Cyprus and Malta I’ve stayed in many 4 star hotels all inclusive and the food at this hotel was as good if not better than some of the 4 stars I’ve stayed in and I’m a vegetarian so if I can find a decent meal here then others should be able to imo also restaurant staff were excellent and good at their jobs, very smiley and friendly only thing I’d say they could improve would be to have ice cream available more than just once a day.

All in all for what we paid for all inclusive at this 3 star hotel it was a bargain and I’d return great staff (except Mr Happy) 😊 good food, the drinks were fine the Fanta lemon was great and the beer wasn’t bad for an all inclusive I was gonna either give 4 or a 5 but as it was such a good deal and I don’t agree with the bad reviews I’m gonna give this hotel a 5 ⭐️ and I hope this review helps I get that we all have our own opinions but this is mine!

All good 👍

Ok, before I start please ignore the minimal poor reviews on here about this hotel. We were a group of two couples and found it to be a very pleasant stay. Staff, cant fault them all very pleasant and helpful, I think you get what you give with all staff on holiday, treat them the way you expect to be treated! Our rooms were at the top of the complex so quite an uphill hike and plenty of steps, perhaps ask for a room closer to the facilities or reception if your not that mobile. Room had what we needed and yes I agree the bed was a little firm but how can they tailor for individual needs! Basic clean most days towels changed once in the week but I'm sure if we asked the cleaner we could have exchanged them at any time. Food, like in most places tends to go a little luke warm but was replaced at regular intervals, never going to keep everyone happy with choice but you certainly will not starve and we all found it to be a good selection particularly with the show cooking offerings. Location is good, this is not a lively resort so great for some relaxation. Plenty of bus's and car / bike hire places if you want to go anywhere else. We all took a trip to Rhodes town on public transport, about 1.5h at around 6 euro each. Two different pool areas which were never overcrowded, quite enough for me to be snoring away on a sunbed anyway. Beach is a short walk away (within 5mins) with free sunbeds and shades, small shop and water sports activities. My opinion is this a great little resort and hotel if you are after a nice relaxing break. May be different in busier seasons but I cant comment on that. Would we go back, YES - definitely.   

No issues here

Just back from a wonderful holiday  in this lovely hotel and we are already looking forward to returning next year .
The surroundings are beautiful and always clean and tidy ..Our room was modern with a very good shower and comfy bed ,it was  cleaned daily and towels and bed linen changed frequently .We had the most beautiful views from our balcony .
The elevated dining  area is  also lovely with a choice of eating on a large balcony overlooking  one of the swimming pools , an outside area sheltered by trees or the cooler inside area .
Food is very good, always plentiful and varied We loved the fresh oranges and gorgeous watermelon 
A lovely chef was present at every break fast cooking omelettes, pancakes or fried eggs .At dinner he did things like kebabs, burgers, sautéed veg etc.This in addition to the large buffet ares with hot and cold food.
Best of all were the wonderful staff who work hard to make the holiday perfect and were always welcoming super friendly , really polite and so very helpful .



Beautiful hotel

Very kind staff, especially Alex and Slawek. Tasty cousine -  variety of dishes for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Beautiful views. A lot of attractions - spa, waterpark, bilard and pool. Thanks to the manager for upgrading our room. 

Pleasant surprise

Enjoyed staying at Ellia hotel. 
Place looked good & staff were great
We arrived at 2am in the morning & the guy on the desk showed us to our room took our cases. 
Room clean 
Pool clean even tho you may get abit of blue paint on you from in pool ? 
Beer was great & mocktails during day 
Soft drinks good also 
Food was good

Great price for stop 
Has water park & beech is 5-10mins down the road with crystal clean ocean. 

Get a car and explore the island like we did it’s fantastic 
Would stop here again. Cheers

Great place for the price

We arrived at 11pm and the chap on reception happily gave us a hand with our cases.

The room was basic, but clean.  The beds were comfortable and there was plenty of storage space.  There is a fridge, TV (didn't watch it) and the bathroom was fine.

The pool was clean and it is where we spent much of the daytime.  Crucially, there wasn't the usual battle for sunbeds, and the hotel have the pool area just right for the amount of guests.  We went to the water park a few times and that was fine as well.  The beach is 5 minutes walk away and was truly stunning with crystal clear water.

There are plenty of facilities around the hotel.  The public bus goes from just outside and we took it to both Lardos and Lindos, but you can go much further.

The food was great and changed from day to day and meal to meal.  The drinks were fine, but my wife commented that the only alcoholic bevie available during the day was beer.  On an evening, the cocktails were great by all accounts.

The best thing about this hotel is the staff.  Every single one of them, the cleaners, the reception staff, bar staff, waiters, cooks, managers, they did everything they could to try and make sure everyone was happy.  I cannot thank them enough.

The staff put on events every evening and there was something quite disarming about it.  They did their best and my daughters were very happy with it.

All in all, a lovely hotel and a really enjoyable holiday.  Don't be put off by the negative reviews.  Thank you to all at Ellia.

Great holiday, lovely hotel and fantastic staff

Excellent service as always from this hotel. Friendly staff, food is plentiful and always something you can find to eat. Very clean. New part is excellent and have to disagree with earlier review from “lone parent” not feeling safe in downstairs room as I have stayed at this hotel many times and not once have I had any issues with safety! Staff look after you well. Good addition of evening bar (indoors). Water park addition is good if you have kids (I don’t) Lita at bar and burgers as always is wonderful.

Fantastic time

Just home after an amzing 2 weeks at this lovely hotel. Don't be put off about bad reviews.  I went very optimistic after reading bad reviews the week before we were due to go.  Rooms very clean, pools fantastic, food and drink average but something for everyone. What made our stay even more special were the Amazing staff. From the lovely cleaners, bar staff around both pools (mario and George), lovely lady in burger bar, restaurant staff, reception (Angelo) and the owner Yanis who was always on hand around the hotel. All the staff around the resort made us feel welcome and all went above and beyond and worked very hard. We will definitely recommend this hotel and will be visiting again in the future to see the lovely resident cats.
