The nicest accommodation that we have ever stayed in Greece. Clean, amazing staff, nice food and good facilities. If a quiet relaxing week is sought then this is ideal. Not much on the doorstep aside from a few bars and restaurants with limited choice. But plenty to choose from in Lefkada town where you are spoiled for choice but a taxi is required. We hired a car which allowed unlimited days out. Could not recommend Villa Elia highly enough. Thank you

We stayed at Villa Elia for one week in August 2022.
It is a lovely, quiet place with a large, well maintained garden/park, swimming pool, tennis court and it is only under 10 min walk from the nearest beach. Our apartment was a separate little house, with private outdoor sitting space, surrounded by banana trees and flowers.
Everything was very clean and comfortable. Breakfast was delicious, plenty of options, from fresh fruit to eggs and muffins.
The staff at Villa Elia were very welcoming, helpful, professional and someone was always at the reception making sure everything is alright.
A lot of planning and care has been taken of every detail- from various options to regulate the lights in the apartment, to super clean swimming pool and lovely flowers arrangement around the garden. It is very easy to find Villa Elia as it is clearly signposted from numerous directions. I strongly recommend Villa Elia and would happily stay there again.

Bassenget var det beste med plassen
Nydelige bassengområder! Nært strand, men mye vind der. Opplevde å ha dårlig lukt på badet. Noe treghet i å få dette ordnet, men fikk byttet boenhet dagen etter og vinflaske som kompensasjon ved utreise. Noen restauranter i gangavstand, ellers noe isolert beliggenhet.

A lovely small complex with beautiful grounds, about 8 mins walk from a beautiful beach. Two pools and comfortable sun beds. Gardens were immaculately kept with plenty of places to sit. Staff were all very helpful.

Εκπληκτικό κατάλυμα, πολύ καλή τοποθεσία, εξυπηρέτηση σε όλα από το προσωπικό, πάρα πολύ καλές παροχές, ΕΚΠΛΗΚΤΙΚΉ ΠΙΣΙΝΑ ΚΑΙ Ντεκόρ που θυμίζει εξωτικά νησιά.. Αριθμημένες θέσεις στάθμευσης και γενικά πολύ καλή δουλειά του χώρου! Μπράβο! Οι διακοπές μας άξιζαν!!
Petit studio très bien avec une petite terrasse. Literie correcte. Seul bémol manque de bols pour le petit déjeuner piscine très bien. Plage et premiers restaurants à 2 km environs
Lovely family who run a clean and tidy establishment. Thank you.

Positiv: Pool, freundliche Mitarbeiter, sauber
Nicht gefallen: buchen konnte man Gartenblick oder Poolseite (die teuer war) Poolseite ist allerdings genauso Gartenblick nur ist man näher am Pool. Bei der Buchung stand max 1 Kind, dies muss man jedoch dazu buchen (stand zumindest sehr verwirrend dort) wir mussten für das Kind extra bezahlen müssen obwohl wir keinen Mehrwert davon hatten - gleiches Zimmer kein extra Bett oder ähnliches, nur ein Leintuch mehr. In der Beschreibung stand 32“ Fernseher drinnen ein 17“ auf meine Reklamation hin bekamen wir einen 26“.
Die Einrichtung war sehr veraltete Einrichtung
Man konnte bei offener Balkonrüre nicht schlafen da in der Umgebung Hunde bellten
Der Stand in der Nähe ist nicht der schönste
Amazing place, beautiful scenery all around, very clean, super friendly staff especially Alina. Great location near the beach and not far from Lefkas town. Will definitely return!
We kwamen bij toeval bij deze accommodatie uit en wat een aangename verrassing wachtte ons daar. Een super goed onderhouden complex en dito appartement. Compleet met whirlpool. Elke dag nieuwe heerlijke handdoeken en elke twee dagen volledig nieuw beddegoed. De houding van de vriendelijke en trotse eigenaar voelde alsof je bij een oude bekende ging logeren. De moeite waard dus, we gaan zeker nog eens terug
wonderful hotel, the rooms are super clean and equiped with all the things are necessary
the workers at the hotel are amazing and give you the feeling they are there for you
.location is great very close to Lefkada town weare highly recomend this place
Thank you vila Elia

Super freundlich, gemütlich und top in Schuss
Wirklich tolle und freundliche Mitarbeiter. Sauber, ruhig und Entspannung pur.
Zimmer waren wie abgebildet und gut in Schuss.
Sehr gut hat uns das Frühstück und die Poolanlage gefallen.
Guter Startpunkt um Land und Leute zu erkunden.
Wir wollten nicht mehr weg und kommen gerne wieder.
Appartement sympathique et bien agencé. Suffisant pour un couple mais peut-être un peu petit avec des enfants. Calme si vos voisins le sont et proche de la plage (prévoir impérativement des chaussures de plage !) et de Lefkada. La piscine n'est pas très grande mais suffisante et bien aménagée. Un terrain de tennis est à dispo pour les plus courageux.
Nous avons passé un bon séjour à la découverte de la région même si nous avons regretté que la plage ne soit pas vraiment adaptée à la 'farniente".
Quelques points négatifs toutefois, comme la douche un peu trop étroite et le wifi lent et capricieux. Voiture indispensable pour tout sauf pour la plage accesible en quelques minutes à pied.
Le propriétaire et le personnel sont très chaleureux mais à notre avis, le prix de la nuitée est trop élevé pour la prestation au niveau des appartements et pour la localisation.
Beautiful hotel, romantic pool and very nice people working there. The area and the beach is quite windy, yet the hotel is well protected from the wind. You can play tennis, basketball and the stuff and the hotel overall is family friendly.
There are about 4 restaurants nearby, the town centre is 30 minutes walk, the supermarket is about 1 hour of walking
Staff was wonderful place was lovely nestled in an olive grove has a pool tennis courts a little play ground for kids great for families. I could go on and on about this place I chose the hotel by a flip of a coin and couldn't be happier You can walk to a beach. I totally recommend
Villa Elia is nice hotel, at very good position for everything: close to the beach, close enough to the city center of Lefkada, close to the west side of the island where are the best beaches. The stuff is nice and kind, ready to help you any time. The property is very good for children.
The Villa Elia is a wonderful place to stay. The staff are very friendly and thoughtful. They took extra time to get to know my 11 year old and teach her some Greek phrases every day.
You can walk a few minutes to the beach that is not crowded and has a restaurant right there for snacks and drinks.
You can also take a taxi a few minutes into town and enjoy the very easy to walk around Lefkada Town.
On top of this, the pool is beautiful.
Highly recommended; the pic does not do it justice
Honest friendly staff. good price and everything worked (this is Greece remember). 5 min walk to a really clean beach, used by the locals. not a tourist trap
