Elysium

From the minute we stepped out of the taxi and were greeted so warmly, we knew we were going to love it and we absolutely did! The room had a gorgeous view of the sea and pool and the bed was huge and so comfortable!! There was a pillow menu which I love and they sent up some options which meant I had the best nights sleep! It was serviced twice a day and we always had water and the room was left immaculate. The pool was lovely, lots of space, although the water was quite hot as others have said but the Hydra Pool was cooler and quieter. They don’t have the best beach but they have a gorgeous seating area around the sea with stunning views and the jetty allowed you to get in and out of the sea easily- maybe that ladder could have a slightly more generous angle!! Breakfast was one of the best we’ve had! Mario at the Omelette station was a highlight of course but so was the honey dripping from honeycomb, the selection of fruits and the delicious Cypriot breakfast section. They would make you any coffee you wanted and were quick to collect plates and ask if you needed anything else. We are in many of the restaurants and never had a bad meal! The sushi was delicious, the buffets were themed and had so much choice and the Mediterranean restaurant had great views and delicious dish. We even had afternoon tea- wonderful! I enjoyed the sauna and steam room but would have liked the jacuzzi to have been a tad warmer! But hey, it was super hot the week we went and maybe they wanted somewhere for us to cool off!! The staff were the best bit, so friendly and helpful! They couldn’t do enough for you! Already looking at when we can go back! Loved it!!

Top hotel in a beautiful location with several restaurants from buffet to Asian cuisine. The selection of food is extensive in all restaurants and the quality is very good with a great selection of vegetarian and vegan food. The indoor and outdoor pools as well as the spa area leave nothing to be desired. The rooms are very clean and stylishly furnished, the service is professional and exquisite.

Wow! My friend and I stayed at Elysium Resort in May to celebrate her birthday and our graduation from med school, and we absolutely loved every aspect of our experience. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with a glass of champagne and assisted by a helpful staff member who took our luggage to our upgraded room with a stunning beach view, a thoughtful gesture we hadn't even requested. The breakfast spread was phenomenal, offering a wide array of delicious options. The pool and private beach were equally impressive and conveniently located. The only downside was the gym, which lacked air conditioning and became uncomfortably hot after just one workout session, preventing me from using it as planned. On my friend's birthday, the staff surprised us with a delightful cake and candles in our room, which was such a lovely touch. Additionally, finding complimentary champagne, wine, and water in the fridge upon arrival was a pleasant surprise. Overall, our stay at the resort was nothing short of amazing, and we are incredibly grateful to the staff for making our time there so memorable!

Beautiful resort with on the mark service! My commendation to everyone who contributed to my visit! Thank you. Breakfast was vast & generous. Easy walk to the boardwalk, proximity to main drag was walkable. It was a comfortable stay. All was excellent, the hot tub, steam room, sauna, indoor pool, the sea -> wonderful. Personal preference, the pools were too cold, no one was using them.

Just not enough and I don’t understand the positive comments of others. The quality of the breakfast can be much better, especially when they claim it to be the best breakfast in the area (for example sparkling water is not included but sparkling wine is, hair in the food (can happen but…), not so much variety and mostly English breakfast and also seems more like a 50-50 choice between food and dessert), long waiting times to get coffee). If you love these big resorts and typical related tourists, this is the place to be. And yes, this includes other guests reserving beds at the pool with towels. Also noisy other guests ruined often the peace. Very small room and for a 5 star hotel everything is quite basic. I would rate it as a good 4 star hotel. Staff is so so, they try to be friendly but it is just not enough. You are more treated as a number and personalised service is absent (for example when booking services via phone, they addressed me by the name of the previous guest). Seems like the staff needs to pay the water bottles themselves, in a country with high temperatures and in a 5 star hotel, this is essential and should be limitless. Spa prices are out of this world and just embarrassing. All in all, value for money was completely out of balance. We will definitely not come back. Waste of money unfortunately.
