Elba Sara Beach & Golf Resort

The hotel is comfortable clean and caters to client needs well. This hotel charges for a sea view and charges additionally for a premium view, this was my issue… The room I was allocated did have a lovely view but it was overlooked and set back in the corner meaning over my 7 day visit there was no sun making it very cold for sitting out. I have posted photos for all to make up their own mind. So all should be aware, in my opinion the premium sea view rooms are simply upper floor sea view.

The staff at this hotel are amazing, the food was lovely as well. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone, we are going back in July we enjoyed our self's that much. The rooms are really spacious and the maids came in every day and the hotel is very clean and modern.

This was our 1st visit to the Elba Sara Resort and we wouldn't return again. It's more of a 3 star hotel in our opinion. Firstly I will start with the positives and there isn't many. - good location, beach near by, nice promenade. - entertainment team work very hard and good with the children. Negatives - On arrival our first impressions were not great. Reception staff extremely blunt. I noticed straight away the thick dust behind the desk , which made me doubt the cleanliness in general. -No offer of help with our cases, having 2 children, a pushchair, and 3 large suitcases , made it a difficult to manage. - The room. On entering, it looked ok. They have tried to give the rooms a mini makeover but its half hearted. On closer inspection we discovered the floor was very dirty. You couldn't walk about bare foot. Which then makes me question the overall standards. - on one of the children's beds, we found long hairs on the sheets - the room is very tired looking and the cleanliness is very poor. The floor wasn't mopped all week. - on closer inspection walking around the hotel , it's very noticeable that the hotel is looking old and is maintained poorly. - the ladies pool toilet window was patched up with cardboard. - the sunbeds around the pool were visibly dirty and half of them were broken. - one of our children became ill for 48 hours whilst there, which I can only put down to something he ate in the buffet restaurant as no one else in our group became ill so couldn't of been a bug. - the food was poor, we have had much better quality in other 4 star hotels. These are just some examples of what we saw whilst staying and why we don't feel it's a 4 star hotel, it's 3 star at the best. I have attached some pictures of what we saw but there was many more I didn't photograph.
