The emelisse has to be one of the most beautiful and relaxing hotels I’ve stayed in. I was weighing up all the hotel options prior to the trip and was so glad to have booked this when we arrived! I was initially worried that the rooms looked a bit dark in the photos but that’s because they utilise “mood lighting” and there’s no big bright main lights in the room which I personally love.
We had a junior suite with a shared pool and it exceeded our expectations. The room was comfortable, very quiet and spacious and the views are phenomenal.
It’s a 10 min stroll to the centre/ port of fiscardo (we visited fiscardo, Argostoli and Sami and for us fiscardo was our favourite of the towns). The hotel also offer an hourly shuttle bus service to and from the centre for those that don’t fancy the walk.
All the staff were wonderful, especially Denise on the front desk who was so helpful, a great asset to the hotel, and Anastasia in the spa who gave me the most amazing massage!
If you are looking for a peaceful, relaxing trip where you can just switch off and enjoy the luxury and beautiful surroundings, I would highly recommend this hotel.
