Eliámos Villas Hotel & Spa - Relais & Châteaux

Eliamos is a beautiful boutique hotel, a collection of villas with pools scattered down a cliff op with stunning views across the sea. We stayed in a two room villa which was perfect for a family of four - the bedrooms and living area were spacious, and the outdoor area had a sizable pool and secluded seating area. The restaurant served delicious, locally sourced food and nothing was too much trouble for the attentive and friendly staff. We failed to find a restaurant on the island which served better cuisine than here! A daily morning Pilates session was a particular highlight, taking place in the outdoor gym, led with skill and patience by the resident PT, Dimitris. There is a track leading down from the hotel to a small cove, about a 10 minute walk, (or alternatively, the hotel will drive people down in their buggy) where the sea is perfectly calm and there beach is deserted. It was perfect for an early morning or early evening swim, although there are no facilities on the beach, so bring the hotel-supplied beach towels and water.

The hotel and the staff were perfect, we had no quibbles about the stay. The only (very minor) consideration is that visiting other parts of Kefalonia requires either a hire car or a taxi, as the hotel is outside a small sleepy village. Most guests seemed to have hired cars. We used taxis, which the hotel arranged for us, and found this very convenient, and probably cheaper than a week's car hire. The taxi drivers all spoke excellent English and always turned up promptly.

WE loved everything,Suggestion:1.Would be good for Villas to have a bath in addition to the shower, especially this category boutique hotel. 2 A steam room for health benefits ( not a sauna) 3. Washing machines in the villas would be incredible.

The property was exceptional. The decor, attention to detail and facilities were fantastic. Everything was well catered for and was the accommodation was immaculate. Even prior to our arrival the staff were beyond helpful - answering questions and arranging airport transfers. We were greeted with drinks and a tour of the facilities. The view was stunning. Anything we wanted was immediately provided; all we had to do was pick up the phone. The full body massage is a must! The staff are knowledgeable and keen to help.

There is nothing we did not like about the property, however we did rely on taxis as we were a little way out of town. This certainly didn’t detract from our experience or enjoyment.

Our stay at Eliamos was flawless! Our villa looked out across to amazing views. The food was delicious - from breakfast through to dinner, with plenty of choice. The staff were so friendly, and the spa therapist was particularly brilliant. I've been to Kefalonia a number of times, but Eliamos is easily the best hotel I have stayed at. I only wish I stayed for longer! Thank you Eliamos - I will be back!

Without a fault!

This is a truly special place, a very relaxing experience catering to discerning customers used to the very best facilities.The team behind the hotel has obviously consider everything to make sure your stay is unforgettable, from the design of every villa so each guest enjoys a fabulous view, to the gardens but the best part of it is the people delivering truly exceptional service. Their smiles simply will stay with us until we come back.The breakfast is to die for, great, healthy options and after ten days in the property it is difficult for me to choose a favourite dish at dinner as the menu has so much to offer. Do try the strawberry gazpacho.

Nothing to report here

Eliamos offered me the dreamed for respite from stressful days. The massage therapist is excellent - and I speak from years of experinece. Ideal for me - fresh air, sea, sun, the luxury of a private pool and delicious meals in the restaurant offering view of the villas tumbling down the hills with terracotta roofs supported by local stone. Add the enthusiasm to provide the best possible service of the entire staff. I'll return ASAP to see what the gorgeous grounds will look like in another season. Now they are full of poppies, jasmine, ivy, lavender,olive and citrus trees and what will mid-summer present? You can be as private as you wish or join the various activities at the Wellness Center. Wine tasting arranged arranged as well as suggestions for activities. Just writing a review makes me yearn to return sooner rather than mid-summer! Don't miss Eliamos, Kefalonia, this summer!

The meticulous attention to detail leaves me at a loss although another hook for the luxurious toweling robe would be appreciated.

A beautiful, well thought through hotel. What makes it special are the staff - everyone was really warm.

A fantastic hotel with breathtaking views. The staff here are incredible and can’t do enough for you. We really enjoyed our stay.
