Eliathos Hillside Retreat

Guests appreciate the modern, well-equipped villa with a superb pool and kitchen. They enjoy a delicious breakfast with beautiful views. The staff provides exceptional service, and the rooms are impeccably clean and comfortable.

We fully concur with Donnie Y's comments below. We also booked a one bedroom villa and while the ground floor layout was fine, we found the very steep, narrow, stairs to the bedroom very tricky to negotiate. We are both under 1.7 meters and still found most of the bedroom was too low to walk in. Plus, the ceiling came down very low over the bed-head end so if one got up during the night (or even raised themselves to a sitting position) a bad head injury would result. Our solution was to leave the downstairs light on all night so that should one wake up enough light would (hopefully) alert one to the roof beams hovering overhead. The access road was very narrow with blind bends and hardly a passing space. The property was not well signposted and we drove into a neighbour's driveway in error. We also found the managers conspicuous by their absence: there was no-one on site when we arrived: we had to phone them to arrange to be met (even though we arrived at the agreed time). So that is the bad news. The good news is that the grounds are indeed beautiful and the pool area superb. The development itself is certainly externally attractive. We also very much liked Arhanes village and the friendly people there: Bakaliko was our go-to taverna in the village square and we highly recommend it.
