Positives and negatives
The staff, beaches, position of hotel were first class. However the hot food at breakfast was always cold. This is something that has been highlighted by previous visitors for months but has obviously not been addressed. Cold fried eggs, bacon, mushrooms etc. The other issue is our pool. We had a nest grove junior suite with pool. The pool was not circulating water constantly like the pools around us. The filters were not emptied and full of bugs. The staff tried to assure us the pool was safe even though the water wasn’t circulating which I feel is not true at all. Consequently it wasn’t very clean. Overall I felt the hotel staff were fabulous but the food wasn’t. There wasn’t a children menu either and very little around the hotel for children to do even though it’s advertised as child friendly. However, the nest grove rooms are very close to the beautiful Banana beach so that compensates for it.

Amazing Hotel on the Beach
All friendly staff and amazing leisure infrastructure. Beach access to private and public area and swift bar services make the stay unforgettable. Hotel cuisine is international, who likes Greek kitchen will find tavernas and beach bars in walking distance

Great Hotel etc. May not suit everyone.
The hotel and room was fantastic- we loved the personal service and the staff were obliging and always had a smile. The breakfast was amazing with everything you could wish for, the staff always kept the various bowls full and good coffee. We must thank the hotel for an upgrade- this should not be expected- as we were booked in near the end of September and the Season was coming to an end. Our only disappointment was that the beach and beach bar which were not up to the standard of previous years before the building of the Elivi Hotel when they were outstanding, and the reason for our booking this year.(thank goodness we had a pool) Lastly we found that by spending a while at the Hotel it was not convenient for Skiathos Town as it was a bit too far to drive to for a casual walk around or after a meal and a few drinks - the Restaurants at the Hotel were expensive when compared to those of similar quality in Town.

Views are exquisite, best on the Island and the setting for the hotel cannot be faulted. However, The kids club isn’t quite as advertised online and doesn’t always happen. Service could be better.

Good but could be great
Pros: Lovely location and rooms with large private pool. Banana beach was beautiful and the sun beds had the most comfortable far mattresses of any I have tried. Very relaxing day time resort. Cons: the hotel restaurants were over priced and not great food. The hotel beach bars had limited choices and were also expensive. The Nest apartments were a long way from the main hotel where breakfast was served and the exit to get buses. The was a golf buggy service but sometimes you had to wait for 20-30 mins so had to plan ahead. We ended up going to Skiathos town every night to eat as the area had limited choices. Summary: This could be a great hotel but it needs some staff training and improvements to the restaurants.

Great hotel - perfect location with good beaches. Room was lovely - got an unexpected upgrade on arrival which can was a nice surprise! Only disappointment was the lack of service from the staff on the beaches... 2 staff servicing over 100 loungers meant it was extremely slow and frustrating.

An amazing place. There was plenty to see and do and with a family wedding (in a different hotel) as our main reason for the stay, we didn’t get to spend as much time as we would have liked here and still discovered new areas on our last day. A site map would be a great benefit to guests.

Nice hotel - 8 out of 10 due to air con issues
The hotel, beach and room were really nice, the service was great. The only negative i have was the air conditioning which was not cool, reported it and sent someone to fix twice but nothing changed, warm air, which made sleeping uncomfortable. The clear sea on their beach was really good for snorkeling and the breakfast was really well done.

Beautiful Hotel but not quite 5 star.
Beautiful hotel in gorgeous surroundings. Breakfast was amazing , so much choice and great view. Beds were really comfortable. Would have given top marks but for the fact that our room wasnt cleaned one day by 5pm so had to be chased up as we had no clean towels for showers etc Also the hotel offers to take you wherever you want to go within the complex via golf buggy but we gave up waiting twice as was told 2 mins and still waiting 25 mins later but overall a beautiful hotel.

My wife and I brought our youngest son (15) to Elivi, based upon a recommendation from a family member. It is a new 5-star hotel but it has teething problems. The location and amenity is 5-star with 4 beaches that have hotel guest luxury sun-beds. The hotel decided however, to earn extra daily cash by re-selling beds to 3rd party’s and not allowing guests to reserve beds for themselves. (this is notable by the amount of colorful beach towels used by visitors rather than the guests beautiful Elivi charcoal grey towels provided by the hotel). This is simply awful when there are no beds available at 11am in the morning. The cleanliness is not 5-star yet, and we found that we had to ask on average 3 times for something to be done. The breakfast was 5-star so too was the food however it often took 10-15minutes to get served coffee when you took your seat on the veranda. I am sure a couple of years of constructive feedback will resolve these teething problems, but Elivi will definitely have to address the taxi service for its guests as Elivi is situated at a remote part of the island. The taxi drivers charge too much money if for example you wanted a lift to local Resturant’s 1500m from the hotel. (€22!). At an island level, there are no footpaths and we found most taxi drivers drive too fast and overtake on dangerous bends. If they up their service to being asked once, cleaned a bit better, don’t sell the guest sun beds for extra cash and sort out taxis, it would be truly 5*

Superbly located on the beautiful Koukounaries Beach, we had a lovely Grace suite with an amazing view of the sea. Our room was brand new and we did have a few teething problems but these were mostly dealt with speedily by the friendly hotel staff.

The response for transportation from the room back to the main facility was delayed and the return transportation to our room during evening hours was delayed as well. Both waits were lengthy. Food amenities are limited during mid day.
