Double Bay Beach Hotel

This island is paradise and the hotel isn’t far from it either! Steps from the beach and with views of it, you won’t regret staying here. There is a nice pool, but honestly you won’t use it much with a beach like that. The rooms are good, with little kitchens. The staff are friendly and helpful! The breakfast is full of homemade cakes and pastries and feels very complete. Loved our stay here, my only complaint is that it wasn’t longer!

The hotel was remote, the staff was great but the management and owners were extremely rude and arrogant. They did not make us feel welcome! Rude through our stay, we will not be returning! Storming wasps all around buffet and tables. We wanted to bring a cup of coffee to our room, the owner scolded us and charged us for the coffee even though the resort had an all inclusive breakfast. Have been to many resorts with breakfast included never once have we been charged! One of our worse experiences!

I picked this hotel based on location, architecture and reviews. A bit concerned as the date was coming closer based on some comments seen here. But soon I realized most of the negativity was nonsense. The building and its architecture are modern and awesome in the details. Tiles, marble, balconies, rooms, kitchen fully equipped, refrigerator, air conditioning all were like nowhere else I’ve seen at this prices. Furniture also very useful and complete. The service was impeccable every single day. Sheets and covers, pillows, towels, beach towels based on request, shower robes all top quality 100% cotton. The mattress maybe has reached useful life, but no complaints here. Water in the shower plentiful and nice pressure on the phone shower. All other amenities were adequate. Self Parking very convenient and partly covered. The owners are the nicest people both Joanis and especially Eleni always useful, always attending to any reasonable requests we made. Zoe and the rest of the service staff were also very friendly. Breakfast is home prepared and includes anything that anyone would want and plentiful. I’d say there are a lot of flies in the outdoors area, but tough to control the outdoors so we managed to protect our food. I give this place whole heartedly a five out of five and would recommend it to anyone. We really hope to be back here in this beautiful place where we felt like home. Thank you Double Bay for making our vacation so AWESOME!

We stayed at the Double Bay Hotel, Elafonisos. The hotel is located closest to the best beach on the island - Simos Beach. Eleni, the owner, is a very hands-on owner and personally interacts with all the guests. The hotel has beautiful rooms, is extremely clean, has modern bathrooms and sea-facing rooms. The hotel offers a very rich breakfast buffet. All the food was delicious, with many greek delicacies offered eg Greek yogurt, tiganites, fresh fruit, quiche, farmer’s sausage, bacon, pancakes, fresh juices etc. I highly recommend this hotel. You will not be disappointed when you stay at the Double Bay.
