We decided to stay at Elix following a stay at the sister hotel (Marbella Beach, Corfu) last year which we enjoyed. The hotel lobby is beautiful and airy with spectacular views. The rooms are also lovely and clean and plenty big enough. As a family group we stayed in 3 rooms, 2x family suites and 1 suite for sole use. The rooms were of a good size and clean with lovely views from the balconies. The beds, including the children’s beds were comfy. We are at the buffet, and both a la carte restaurants and the dine out meal at local restaurant. The buffet was good, but I found it quite limited with options for the children, although there was the usual bread, salad, fruit and pasta so they managed. The Italian restaurant by the pool was our stand out favourite. Every dish was perfect and delicious. The beach was shingle/pebble for the most part which we found a struggle with the youngest children who wanted to play as the sea was too rough for them to swim in some days. The sea was beautiful though, so clean and blue. There were a couple of things that I thought let the hotel down though. There are stairs everywhere. Perhaps we should have guessed there would be, with the hotel being on a hillside but as the youngest child we had was 2, we had to hold his hand everywhere so he couldn’t run ahead as there were so many steps around which he wasn’t too pleased about. There is also only 1 main pool. The pool, wasn’t ever too crowded but it got pretty boring not being able to change it up throughout the week. The children’s pool is just a small shaded pool set to the side of the main pool. This meant the water was really cold all day, and there are no loungers/chairs around it so if you want to let the kids play in it you have to sit on the steps to watch them. I saw no children play in this pool the whole week of our stay. I would say this hotel would be best for adults only or families with older children. Overall the hotel was pleasant but wouldn’t stay again for the reasons above.

Beautiful location with lovely views from all over the hotel. Rooms are brilliant and new with comfy beds and awesome views out of the windows. Beach was a great experience with great staff on hand helping you out with drinks and sunbeds always looking out for you. Service was awesome throughout the whole hotel with brilliant food selections across the restaurants and a buffet that had everything possible! Plenty to do with the gym, tennis and spa keeping you active and busy throughout the whole day. Boat days and dine out options was also a great touch. Particular mention to George the guest relations manger who helped my family through a difficult last couple of days and looked out for us amazingly. He was brilliant along with all the staff which made it a pleasant and enjoyable experience.
