We stayed at the Elix in August. Having read some of the TripAdvisor reviews I was abit worried, mainly about the noise and the size of the pool. The journey from the airport was long, about 1hr 45mins but the driver was excellent and knew the roads well. It was worth the long transfer for a 10 night stay, maybe not for a 7, for me. Checkin was relaxed and we were soon in our rooms. The rooms are large and have stunning views. We were in a part of the hotel with quite a few steps, no lifts. It was fine until my husband badly sprained his ankle on the boat trip. The food at this hotel is excellent, I love that you can eat at the pool for lunch on AI, again so good. The beach area was great, water too choppy to take canoes etc out after lunch but 10am was the best time of day. The pool area was great, never a shortage of sun loungers, good service from the bar staff, the pool was big enough for everyone and never got overly busy while I was there. Yes, maybe one or two kids having a mad half hour here and there but that’s totally normal. Mostly very peaceful. This hotel is remote and the taxi situation in peak times is strained. However the location is so great that we didn’t want to go far anyway. The evening entertainment was low key and chilled out, we really enjoyed it but maybe too quiet for others. I would definitely go again, although maybe early or late season as it was so hot, over 30 most of the time. The wine list had so many really good Greek wines on it, and every member of staff we spoke to knew so much about them. I will definitely be back to this hotel and to this group in the future. The airport heading home is very small, so don’t get there too early as you can’t get through to main area until 2 hours before flight anyway.
