7.4 out of 10, Good, (13 reviews)
"Ägarna till hotellet var väldigt vänliga. Familjerummen var stora med plats för 6 personer i varje rum. Familjerummen var nära poolen så det var väldigt smidigt. Bussen gick precis utanför grinden och vi kunde transportera oss enkelt på ön. Det fanns en bra familjevänlig restaurang 50 meter från hotellet och ett bageri 400 meter bort. En promenad på cirka 600-700 meter till en av de finaste stränderna på ön - Hovolo Beach. Man får balansera på stenarna på vägen dit men det är lätt värt det....

"The beach was further away than what was described and the “road” was not an actual road. The amenities ended up being less than what was listed, there are no washers, no parking, wifi sucks, etc. the pool was not clean, the food remained the same every day. It’s far from the main road. Towels were never changed, sheets never changed, never sweeper or mopped the room and we stayed for a decent time. Depending on the room the appliances did not work which we didn’t find out until everything went...

"We had a great stay at Margi House. The room was beautifully furnished, and the outdoor jacuzzi was so lovely. The hill, which many mentioned, wasn’t too bad and was easily doable. The receptionist was super helpful and friendly - always with a smile on her face. Just a few things that could be improved: our coffee & water glasses weren’t cleaned until the last day. Since we didn’t have a kitchenette, this would have been nice. The main pool was lovely, but we did have to fish out a lot of bugs...

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Elios?
The best area to stay in Elios is the main village itself, offering convenient access to the beach and local amenities.

Couples often find Elios ideal for a relaxed getaway. Its uncrowded beach provides a peaceful setting for sunbathing and swimming, and the local tavernas offer a pleasant atmosphere for evening meals by the sea. The pace of life here is slow, encouraging rest and connection.

Families also appreciate Elios for its calm environment. The beach is generally calm and shallow, making it suitable for children. Accommodation options often include apartments with kitchenettes, which can be very practical for preparing family meals.
When is the best time to go to Elios?
The best time to go to Elios is during the shoulder seasons of late spring (May to early June) and early autumn (September to early October).

During these months, you'll experience pleasant weather, with warm temperatures great for exploring the beaches and countryside without the intense heat of mid-summer. The sea is lovely for swimming, and the natural beauty of the island is at its peak, with lush greenery in spring and comfortable warmth in autumn. These periods also offer a more relaxed atmosphere compared to the busier peak summer months, meaning fewer crowds at popular spots and easier access to restaurants and attractions.

For couples looking for a romantic getaway, these shoulder seasons are ideal. You can enjoy quiet dinners by the sea, peaceful walks along the olive groves, and intimate moments on less crowded beaches. The milder temperatures are great for hiking or cycling through the island's picturesque landscapes.
