Atlantica Eleon Grand Resort

Had a lovely holiday at Atlantica Eleon, what a beautiful stay with my partner & daughter (11 yrs). The staff are AMAZING, such hard-working lovely kind people - working really long days in the heat yet always greeted you with a smile on their face . So accommodating & helpful too. People who have left negative reviews are nit picking, it’s a lovely hotel with lovely views overlooking the sea. We had a warm welcome on reception plus they had left food aside for us as we arrived about 11pm & they thought we’d be hungry (which we were). This was a lovely gesture. The Italian restaurant in the hotel (beside the pool) was outstanding, such a beautiful meal & a treat / change from buffet- recommend (you get 1 meal included in your stay) beautiful atmosphere & food. Friendly & professional staff. Beautiful vibe Lola (I think ?) Albanian staff member, was so lovely and bought my daughter a gift just before we left (for helping her pick some litter on the beach), was such a lovely surprise- she’s been showing off her purse to family since coming home. Just shows what the staff in this hotel are like! Above and beyond. Our daughter particularly liked Joe, Will and Chelsea in entertainment team .. and we loved Joe on the bar plus several staff members (sorry we didn’t get everyone’s names). The only downside is hotel is slightly out of the way, but also only €10 for a taxi to the nearest town where there are heaps of eateries, pubs and shops. But you could easily spend the week at the hotel if you’re not a fussy eater. FOOD: Pretty decent but same as every all inclusive it can become a bit samey. I’m Vegan and managed. I’m not a big breakfast person, had toast & jam + fruit, lunch I had a lot of salady stuff, pasta, rice , olives, chips etc.. and dinner much & such - but they always had veggie sometimes vegan options- there was heaps of salad, lentils, vegetables etc. pasta, chips. And a theme every night - we were sad as left on the day of oriental night so didn’t get to try that .. but the noodles etc looked tasty. You will get by as vegan but we did end up going for a Chinese in the next town 1 night.. and 1 night in the Italian restaurant which was as I said above a nice treat. I think 2 weeks as vegan might be a bit samey DRINK: You get what you pay for. This hotel was a pretty good deal/price so can’t expect everything to be high end. Beer was fine but tasted low percentage/maybe watered down- nice enough though . Wine was fine, Prosecco was the nicest drink of all, not to be fussy but cocktails were pretty samey and very sweet/syruppy. The drinks were flowing though and it was a lovely touch that they came by the poolside (top pool) taking drinks orders. There was also the option of paying for better quality drinks (I think) SNACK BAR: Great if you don’t want to get dressed to go inside for lunch. Good if you eat meat - hot dogs, chicken, chips, baguettes.. veggie -they had a veggie burger or salad sandwich… or just chips if

Just got back home this week from a lovely time here…… The Food, Entertainment, Staff and location are perfect. Not to mention our room…. Wow it was just amazing we had a room right next to the pool, bar, snack bar, children’s entertainment , water slides, beach and Greek restaurant we couldn’t have asked for better. The hotel check in was ran so efficiently the whole holiday was an absolute recommend

Went on the 13/09 for a week, quite disappointed in the hotel very dated , needs a major upgrade. Our room had a large table/ bench which was sagging in the middle, door cover hanging off the fridge, shower screen let water over the bath side after using the shower, floor always wet. But the most disappointing thing was the lack of cups in the room , no bottled water , although they give you a complimentary one when you arrived which you had to fill yourself from the bar, dining room or near the pool, nothing near the bedrooms !! Also a coffee machine in the main dining room, no pot of coffee or tea as is usual in this type of hotel. Food repetitive! not a large selection. Glad it was September rather July when the place was full! We ate out 3 nights as the dining area was so busy. We had 4 weddings in the week so the ‘Greek ‘ restaurant was a non starter as this was used as the wedding venue‍♂️, we did try the Italian, the only thing I can say is, I’m glad it was free on your first visit. Otherwise I likely wouldn’t have paid! We have stayed in several Atlantica Hotels before, and since Covid . If this is the standard going forward I can’t see us using them again. Literature in your room advises it’s about being more ecologically minded, etc, I’m more of the view that it’s more around economics ( cheaper ! ) than anything else! It’s a shame really as it has the potential to be a great hotel. Definitely not a 4 star though. The staff as usual, make the difference and are the main positives to the hotel. Sorry Eleon Grand
