Great Food Experience

During my stay, I was pleasantly surprised by the variety and quality of food offered at the restaurant. The meals were plentiful, and I especially enjoyed the local dishes served by the pool bar. Dining on the terrace with a view over Mirabello Bay only enhanced the experience. It felt like a treat to enjoy delicious food in such a beautiful setting.

Fun Poolside Activities

I loved the activities organized by the hotel, especially the aqua gym sessions led by Ulyana. She was fantastic at bringing energy and connection to the group! The outdoor cinema was another highlight, showing movies a few times a week, creating a lovely atmosphere for relaxation in the evenings.

Lovely Accommodations

I stayed in a spacious suite that was not only clean but also offered stunning views. The room was well-maintained every day, and I appreciated the comfort it provided. The two balconies added a nice touch, allowing us to soak in the scenery any time of day.

Relaxing Pool Area

The pool area was one of my favorite spots at the hotel. It was spacious, with plenty of sun loungers to choose from, allowing me to find a perfect spot in the shade or sun. The serene surroundings, complete with olive trees, created a tranquil atmosphere, making it an ideal place to unwind after a busy day.

We had a lovely stay at Elpida Village, where the atmosphere was perfectly relaxing and quiet, just as we hoped. The staff were incredibly friendly, and we enjoyed our spacious room with a fantastic sea view. However, the dining experience left a bit to be desired with cold food during meals and limited drink options. Overall, it’s a charming place if you’re after a peaceful getaway, but some improvements in dining would elevate the experience significantly.

I had a lovely and relaxing stay at Elpida Village, surrounded by stunning views and a nice quiet atmosphere. The facilities were great, especially the pool area, though I found the internet to be a bit weak. My only concern was the number of steps, which was challenging for my knee, but I managed to find an access road to help me with my luggage. Overall, it's a beautiful place to unwind and enjoy nature, but it might not be suitable for those with mobility issues.

I had an absolutely lovely stay at the hotel! The staff was super welcoming and really made us feel at home. The location is perfect for a peaceful getaway with charming views, and I enjoyed walking to the nearby beach. The food was delightful, although a bit repetitive at times. Overall, it offers great value for money, but I wish the Wi-Fi was included instead of having to pay for it.
