Elies 33 Bio Retreat - Adults Only

“Excellent spot for a sunny getaway”

My girlfriend and I had a wonderful visit to this hotel. It was clean, all the facilities were new, the pool area was spotless and well equipped and the bedrooms were perfect for a few days in the sun. The reception/breakfast/lunch area was really well equipped and also brand-new. The coffee was great and the service at breakfast was second to none. The breakfast itself was delicious with everything from muesli, yoghurt, right through to eggs and bacon. There was a fine selection of fruit, local pastries and doughnuts which are always a bonus. The walk to the beach was easy and when you are there, it is secluded, clean and idyllic. We would happily come back as we loved every minute

Never visited the Elies 33 previously but always like small, quiet places, and this fitted the bill perfectly. This adults only hotel offers everything you need for a relaxing break, located 10 mins from town but easy access by taxi. The rooms are comfortable and cleaned daily, and the place is run by two lovely people, Malvina and Chryssa, two charming ladies who basically run things on a day to day basis. A buffet breakfast is provided, which has a wide variety of choices from continental and small English ( eggs, bacon, sausage). The hotel does not have a full kitchen, but the breakfast and snacks that are available through the day are very nice and filling (pizza, salads, and sandwiches). The pool area is quiet with plenty of beds. Most days, there were only a few people around. The pool is not massive but ideal for a cool dip and swim. Then there is the beach, which is a short walk down a steep hill, we read previous comments about this steep hill and we being 68 and 65 we a little concerned but no problem, it took us longer to go down than come up with no real problem, one thing is to go down early to get the best position as the beach is not very big, alternatively a taxi 7euros to Afitos beach which is one of the main beaches. Of an evening, a 6 euro fare to the town and numerous restaurants are available, if you like seafood there is an abundance here. All in all a very nice place to stay the staff all extremely pleasant only one minor comment wardrobe hanging space good but no drawers in room.

We are a couple late forties no children from the UK who stayed here in August 25. There is a lot you may not be aware of after reading other reviews. A beautiful small quiet hotel set in gardens with a small shallow pool roughly 5m X 5m and 12 sunbeds. You will always get a sunbed, there were not many people around the pool during the day. Bring your own towel or you will have to pay for them. A continental breakfast was included from 9-11 with a choice of fried or scrambled egg, no bacon or sausage. You could always find something to eat. The reception is open from 8am - 9pm, You can get alcoholic drinks and coffee between those times and certain food, burgers can take an hour as they are made at the sister hotel as this hotel has a limited kitchen. After reception closes at 9 there is nobody around only an emergency number. The woman who owns it is very kind and friendly and will help you order taxis etc. There is a private beach down a steep slope and steps at the rear of the hotel, 5 minutes to get down. It was very small, a bit dirty and full of rubbish, not really the best. Do not listen to other reviews you cannot walk into Afytos along the road. As you come out of the hotel it is onto a main road with no pavement. For 800 yards you are playing chicken with cars at speed until you reach a fork to afytos even then it's dangerous. If you wanted to it's a 25 minute walk but it's far too dangerous, deadly of a night. 7 euros in the taxi to get into the village. The rooms have a free safe, fridge, kettle, air con, hair dryer, TV, free WiFi, although there is not enough surfaces, no chest of drawers to put things on top of or in. Afatyos beach the sunbeds are €40 and you have to eat at their restaurant or they charge you another €10. Kalithea beach is very crowded full of beach bars. €30 for a bed, if you eat €30 of food then beds are free. The best beach was the one at the white suites. €30 for two. Very beautiful and quiet. This hotel is branded a retreat as you are very isolated if you don't hire a car you will have to take 4 taxis a day to get to the beach and back and restaurants of a night like we did. The reception shuts at 9. There is no supermarket. It is extremely quiet. If that is what you are after then this is the hotel for you, we would come back to afatyos just not here.
