Dream vacation!

From the warm welcome at the airport pickup, to the friendly and wonderful front desk staff, to the beautifully maintained ground and our very comfortable and classy room this stay was 5 star. Highly recommended and we really enjoyed our stay! Excellent location to find cute coffee shops, little stores and great dining options all steps away. The restaurant on site is also very good and we enjoyed both lunch by the pool and a lovely rooftop breakfast. Can't wait to go back!

We loved our stay. Everything was wonderful from the view to the accommodations. The staff is AMAZING! Vanessa was our favorite as we spent the most time with her. We loved our personalized notes each night as well. The only negative is that the huge balcony only had a small sofa type bench to utilize. Would have loved to have a small table and chairs with a couple lounges.

The Ellysian was a fantastic stay for our family of 4. It is a great location - beachfront and a nice enough deep pool. The staff are exceptional - super friendly and helpful. They really stood out as soooooo nice! The location is great - walk to everything. The room was also very clean and appointed well with plenty of towels, fridge, microwave... even though we brought our own toiletries, my kids loved the hotels shampoo, conditioner and body wash. The restaurant is also quite good. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend!

It was a very good location. The hotel was quiet and the food was good. The housekeeping was very poor and had to beg to get creamers for my coffee in the morning. The hotel staff really didn't like cleaning the rooms. The equipment for water activities was broken.

Absolutely lovely spot in the village within walking distance of everything. Gorgeous pool and beach. Exceptional staff. Rooms are posh for sure. Ask for first or second floor as there isn't an elevator but strong folks took care of luggage! Definitely coming back.

This property advertises itself as a "luxury boutique" hotel. It was neither. The bathroom floor was dirty and not cleaned in spite of my request. Bath towels were tattered and worn; shower tiles had black mildew patches. We had only two beach towels for two guests and were denied others when I requested them. I had to insist I be given more than two towels after my repeated requests for towels at a beach resort were denied. There was no evidence of a manger. There wasn't anything hanging on the white walls of the guest room, while the small lobby had three large matching abstract canvases spray painted in red paint. The interiors were drab though very white. Bed was comfortable and air conditioning worked well. Outdoor seating banquettes at restaurant were rotted and did not support our sitting on them. Restaurant staff were friendly. In summary, we felt this was an unmanaged, disappointing hotel that was too costly for the accommodations and service offered.

Attractive but not comfortable

The people were awesome, location awesome, bed and bathroom awesome… However, the furniture in the living areas and balcony was not comfortable… it was attractive but not comfortable. It seemed as though whoever decorated the room was more concerned on having a certain modern “look” than to comfort and convenience. Could have also used a desk and a small table with chairs.

Sometimes when you get to a hotel room the photography used to sell the room is far better than the room itself. In this case my expectations were high and room exceeded my expectations. The staff were friendly and attentive and we will stay there our next visit. Wesley & Katherine Peterson
