Atlantica Eleon Grand Resort

Second time here. Place is great. Rooms are nice, clean. Food is fantastic. Pools not too crowded. Loved the sea too. Went with family, kids loved the slides.

We spent 2 weeks at Atlantica Eleon Grand as a family of 4 with 2 boys (9 & 13) and we had such a wonderful time! Things I thought worth noting, sorry for the lengthy review! 5 x pools: Adults only - small pool with jets, next to the Panorama Bar at the top of the resort. Lovely place to chill with a cold beer / cocktail with beautiful views over the sea. There are no sun loungers here, because the tables and chairs are in full use during the evenings. Baby pool - we didn't use this but it looked decent with a sail for shade. Infinity pool - a tier down from the adults only pool. Doesn't get too overcrowded, a good spot to try and get some swimming in, especially around lunchtime when it's quieter. Main activity pool - 3m deep at one end, super shallow at the other. You're allowed inflatables, balls, games etc in this pool. Aqua fit, water polo, water volley etc all takes place in this pool. It gets busy but not to the point it feels overcrowded. Slide pool - so much fun!! 4 slides that everyone can go on. Little ones can sit on adults laps. We all went on the slides every day. The pools don't open until 10am, which to start with I thought was a bit late, however this really does prevent the 5am bed reservers! Most people start sauntering down around 8am / 8:30. So long as you don't put your towels down and leave for the morning, you're ok to lay, read, chill and wait for the pools to open. Lifeguards - Marcus & Marianne have a job on their hands! They are really lovely people with rules they have to follow. They definitely do their job of keeping everyone safe. They have their eyes on the pools at all times. It is a little excessive that no jumping or diving is allowed in a 3m deep pool, however 2 sides of the deep end have very narrow sides, so perhaps this is the reason? However there is a side with a larger surface area, so it would be ok to jump or dive from that side, surely. It seemed a bit unfair. One of the slides is a really wide orange slide and the kids were constantly told off for turning / spinning around while on this one, which again seemed a bit mean. The slide is big enough for 3 kids to go down side by side so to make them go one at a time and only facing forward, again, seemed a little bit like a fun sponge! Having said all that, we still had lots and lots of fun in all the pools. Beach & sea - the beds by the beach are absolutely lovely! This was our favourite spot. There is a beautiful sea breeze and the Olive trees provide shade throughout the day if needed. It's a great base if your kids are a bit older and can go to the pools on their own. The sea was perfect temperature, clear waters, excellent conditions for swimming - there are no time limits in the sea ;) It is shallow for a long way out and is rocky / pebbly for a while before hitting the sand, sea shoes are thoroughly recommended. You can hire jet skis and private boats from a guy who is based next to the beach. It's worth keeping an eye on him

Grate food with virety of options, clean room, towels exchange every day. Joee and Lena are very helpful, gave us a lot of tips about the hotel and island. They definetly need a raise! :) We had a lovely time and recommend thin place for everybody who would spend grate time with familly or friends

Super service a special thanks for Joee and Lena the evening with them, were wonderful grate service and information about the hotel and about the island. The best evening in this hotel.

We've stayed in the hotel for a week and overall it was a good stay. The staff is very friendly and the food in the main restaurant is nice. Rooms are cleaned daily. Prepare yourself for sitting on a sunbed till 9am, otherwise your towels will be taken away. There is a lovely italian a la carte which has great food, but also has a gigantic problem with wasps. Entertainment department is going strong throughout the day and is quite diversified. We had a room facing the main event stage and if we didn't have kids, it would be unbearable, for the events are every day and finish around 23:00 and are very loud. Kids were happy about it though. The room was moderate - spacious enough, but definately needs a renovation in every aspect. The waterslides are nice and fun. There are queues to the main restaurant during rush hours and you are seated to the table by the waiter. We didn't have to wait very long, but still. To sum up: it was a good stay in - truth be told- a 4-star hotel which requires renovation and definately a bigger restaurant area.

Wonderful hotel due to the friendly and helpful staff, cleanliness and top quality all inclusive food and drinks. Sadly the entertainment was poor at night for children. The location is great and the beds are really comfortable. There is an issue with people slamming the doors at night and so the hotel really should look at installing something to fix this. The pools and the slides are great and the you are literally on the beach which has a small sandy area you can enter the crystal clear water from. Again it is the happy staff that can not do enough for you that made our stay so Wonderfull. The food was incredible and the drinks unlimited and strong! I would say 4 star not 5 but would definitely visit again and recommend
