Elivi Skiathos

The location is pure paradise. The hotel very comfortable, spacious and accommodating. The staff were all fantastic with smiles on their faces and eager to please. Service with a smile as they say. Probably one of the best hotels for beauty and relaxation I have been too!

Lovely 7 day stay in May. Beautiful beaches with comfortable sunbeds, Banana beach the preferred for second half of the day where you can relax & enjoy stunning sunsets. Modern hotel in beautiful leafy surroundings, wonderful gardens and superb facilities. Breakfast very good with excellent selection and chef on hand to prepare eggs how you like them. Delightful staff, special mention to Michael on Reception who made our stay so much more comfortable and always with a smile and Claudio too all for his help. Room lovely - comfortable bedding, good shower and excellent coffee facilities. Only slight downside was air con as the room felt too humid - but just might be as it’s the beginning of the season?? Overall, a hotel that we’d love to return to.

Disappointing – Not Up to 5-Star Standards We had high expectations for Elivi Skiathos, but unfortunately, we were let down in many areas. For a 5-star hotel, there is a lot of room for improvement. Our room was located at the very end of the resort. While that wasn’t an issue in itself, everything took significantly longer from there—whether it was the buggy service or room service. Waiting times were the norm. At one point, we waited 45 minutes just to receive an iron, which is simply not acceptable for a hotel of this level. On the very first afternoon, we ordered drinks—the glasses were still left outside our door after four nights, despite us informing reception twice. Similarly, a bag of used towels remained in front of our entrance until we again had to inform reception to have it removed. This kind of neglect is not what you expect in a 5-star environment. The staff overall did not seem particularly warm or welcoming. We often felt like a burden rather than valued guests. Our room had repeated technical issues in the mornings—between 6 and 9 AM the lights would randomly switch on and off. When we reported it, there was no apology or concern, just a cold response that it would be “passed along.” At checkout, we were basically pushed out of the room with a blunt “When can we collect your luggage?” No one asked about our stay, no farewell—just a rushed goodbye. This is not the level of service you’d expect at this price point or star rating. A beautiful location, but sadly, much work needs to be done when it comes to service, communication, and attention to detail
