Elissa Lifestyle Resort

Would definitely recommend! This was the best hotel we’ve stayed at and definitely worth five stars.

The food was delicious - we had the Ellavated Bliss package (like All Inclusive premium), so we could access the A La Carte restaurants free of charge and as often as we liked (but only one per day). There were a few items on the menu that were an extra charge, but there was so much choice it didn’t impact us. The restaurants had some of the best food we’ve eaten, and the breakfast A La Carte was also delicious. The portions were very big and they had very nice drinks menus too.

The buffet was also very good with lots of choice. For lunch you could use the buffet or order food to your sunbed from their poolside menu, which had burgers, pizza, sandwiches, pasta, salads and more. Our room mini bar was always stocked and they used branded drinks. Most were included but a few very premium brands were an extra charge.

On the Ellavated Bliss package we also had 24 hour room service free of charge, and there was a very extension food menu we could use, which was useful if you wanted to eat breakfast in bed or have late night snacks.

There were lots of pools and no rush to reserve a bed first thing. If you stayed at the pool near either of the pool bars then waiters would order and serve you drinks and food from your sunbed, which was lovely. The waiters and staff were all really friendly and helpful, and there was a lovely atmosphere to the hotel.

We stayed in a Junior Suite which was very nice. It had a really good shower and lots of space, and the cleaners were very good.

For entertainment there was an outdoor cinema 3 times a week. It was a little hard to hear depending on where you sat, but a nice idea. They served popcorn too. They also had live acoustic music playing a few times a week at the jazz bar, and during the A La Carte restaurants. They had a DJ at the main bar, although no live singers or bands.

The location was great too, about 30 minutes from the airport and around 10/15 from Old Town. There was a bus stop very near the hotel which went to Town for €2.50 each way, or you could book a taxi from reception.

We also did a boat trip to Lindos which is worth it, it’s a lovely area with great food and nice swimming stops.

Overall it was very a relaxing stay, with excellent food, lovely pools and was very clean. Would recommend it for couples looking for a luxury holiday.

Firstly the location of this hotel is ideal. Not to far from the airport and you are in beautiful surroundings. I have been to Dubai and this definitely gave the same feel as a 5* hotel. The staff are super friendly, the food is fresh, tasty and varied. The cocktails were amazing as was the service of the waiting staff. The room we had was a junior suite with a shared pool which was very clean and the beds were the comfiest I have ever slept away from home in. Everyday the rooms were cleaned and beds made. Especially liked the little biscuits left by the bed in the turn down service. There was no rush for sunbeds (we were a party of 5) and the beanbag sunbeds were so comfy (although a little tricky to get off!!) If I had one suggestion that would be to open the restaurants on site every night as they get booked up quickly. Sun, sea, iced latte’s and cocktails a plenty. Would definitely recommend this hotel and we will surely be back in the future. 🤩☀️

We’ve just returned from an incredible week at Ella Elissa and honestly, what a place! This was our first ever all-inclusive holiday and we were completely blown away by the experience. It was one of the best family holidays we’ve had.

The staff were amazing from start to finish, so friendly, attentive and genuinely happy to help.

We stayed in a Junior Suite with a pool and sea view in Block 9000, which was incredible. The room was beautiful, the bed was so comfortable and the feather cloud pillows were just dreamy! Having direct access to the pool was such a luxury and made our stay even more special.

The restaurants were fantastic and we were so glad we booked them all before arriving. Fourni, Masari and Shori Table were our favourites. We also loved Breakfast Stories at Fourni, which was such a lovely experience and literally just a stone’s throw from our suite.

A special mention to all the wonderful bar staff at the Siana Lobby Bar. They were brilliant, so attentive, knowledgeable and friendly, and always remembered what we liked.

We also made great use of the gym and tennis courts, which was perfect for the three of us.

What we loved most was how relaxed and effortless the whole holiday felt. There was plenty to do if we wanted it, but equally we could just completely switch off and enjoy being together.

We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better family holiday. Ella Elissa completely exceeded our expectations and we were so impressed with the all-inclusive experience.

Thank you to the whole team for making our stay so special. We will definitely be back!
