Eliamos Villas Hotel & Spa

We are a well travelled couple in our seventies and can honestly say that this was one of the very best hotel experiences we have had.The service is second to none with every member of staff superbly trained to treat guests with absolute charm and politeness. Nothing is ever too much trouble and response is immediate to any request.The way that the 12 villas are located around the property provides guests with privacy.It is like walking through a small village with the dining room/bar the village square. For us the single most significant symbol of excellence was location and layout of the site.Our villa looked across the terrace with it's private pool which each has to the Ionian sea with a totally uninterrupted view of what can only be described as paradise. The food is of the highest quality and the hotel is no more than 15 minutes to a whole host of friendly and hospitable tavernas, indeed the closest is a 5 minute drive so you can mix and match if you wish to do so. Given that it only opened in May there were very few teething troubles and those that did reveal themselves were quickly and graciously dealt with.All staff were keen for feedback which was always taken note of and as time passes this will become one of those rare finds, a hotel with which you will struggle to find even the most minor complaint or disappointment. If heaven is what you are seeking, look no further than The Eliamos.

We had the most wonderful stay last week. Your location is divine, the villas surpassed the pictures, the staff was above and beyond friendly and helpful, we loved the food and Pilates, massage, cycling. Seriously a 10/10 experience.

It was our first visit to Eliamos Villas Hotel & Spa and indeed Kefalonia and we loved all of it. Our one bedroom suite was delighful and the view over our infinity of the coast beyond was stunning. It was our minimoon following our wedding and we just relaxed - an easy thing to do there. We stayed in the Ammos seaview suite with private pool and it was just perfect. Through the hotel we arranged a private tour of the island with Mr Dennis, who was delightful and very knowledgeable about the island. We loved it so much we've booked to go back for our anniversary. It really is a lovely place to stay and the staff are so friendly and helpful.

Eliamos Hotel and spa is a very special place. The villas are luxurious and of a very high standard. The location is tranquil and peaceful. The experience was made extra special by the excellent early morning Pilates and optional personal training sessions provided by Dimitris. He is a very professional, personable and knowledgable coach who is able to work with people of all abilities. It was this experience each day that made this a stand out holiday!

Highly recommend! Absolutely amazing stay! The hotel exceeded all my expectations — beautiful, clean rooms with stunning views, excellent service, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere. The staff went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. The location is ideal, close to everything yet peaceful and relaxing.

This is a great resort. You can leave, but why? I found it difficult to find something better off property than on. Shout out Dimitri at the fitness area who is a consummate professional and made the entire trip a vacation with daily AM pilates. I will note the cliff side taverna, Sea Salt was charming and delicious. Avoid the primary city Agristoli, it is not charming. Roaming vagrants abound. A boat tour is nice, I would recommend splurging on a nicer vessel, otherwise you will find yourself on a small boat in a big sea. We had trouble striking the right balance with the concierge, but I left with a solid feeling as they comped us the last nights dinner at the michelin star restaurant. Overall, I recommend this resort, a strong value for the money with no gaps. However, there are many places in this world, and I consider this one permanently marked off my lists of places to revisit.
