“Awsome!”
A group of 9 of us stayed at Eltina Apartments for our lads holiday and we couldn't fault the place at all. From the moment we arrived, Petros was incredibly friendly and welcoming. He really made us feel at home throughout our stay. The pool and bar area are fantastic and were the perfect place to relax during the day. Petros even ran a happy hour every day before we headed out in the evenings, which was a great touch. The food from the bar was excellent and very reasonably priced. We had breakfasts, lunch and dinners there and everything was consistently good quality and great value for money. On our final evening, the team even put on a barbecue for everyone staying at the apartments, which was a brilliant way to finish our holiday. It's clear that they genuinely care about their guests and go the extra mile to create a great atmosphere. There was also a security guard on duty during the evenings, which gave everyone extra peace of mind. Ultimately, Eltina Apartments is a really nice family-run place with a friendly atmosphere, great facilities and excellent hospitality. We have absolutely no complaints and would highly recommend it to anyone.

“Excellent hotel with excellent staff”
I liked the distance it was from everything not to close and not to far. It also had 2 pools so if you wanted some quiet you could go to the other pool.

“Awesome stay”
We had an amazing stay here! Petros and his mother are great hosts; very kind people and welcoming. The location was as in the photos, the price is great for the value and there was no issue with noise or parties as we were expecting reading other reviews; maybe it depends on the year or time of year, but either way, we had a great stay and was above our expectations

Staff were very welcoming, close to beach and strip but not too close that it was noisy and the room had air conditioning.

The family who run the hotel are lovely. I arrived a bit grumpy as we had had a long journey, (which I felt bad about later on). I can't fault this hotel or the staff- the family are so nice (mum and son)and we had a great stay there. I would recommend it to anyone.

“bosh”
petros was an absolute legend. welcomed me and my friends in with open arms. creates a really good friendly atmosphere which made our stay very comforting. room was good. got the simples. good bed. working shower etc. location was good. just a 5 mins walk from the strip. which was good as it was closer to the old town meaning it was not a far walk from good food and easy to get back from a night out. definitely recommend for anyone looking for an easy trip with great company.
