Hotel Emelisse

This was, I think, my seventh stay at the Emelisse. It is astonishing how the magic of the place simply doesn't wear off, it is a wonderful place. The views really are beyond description; the atmosphere could not be more relaxed; and this year, in my opinion, the food at the hotel was the best it has ever been. My only slightly negative comment is that some of the equipment in the gym needs to be replaced because it has worn out.

We have just returned from a week at Emelisse Nature Resort in Fiskardo. What a fantastic hotel, beautiful surroundings, friendly staff and top service. We will definitely return. The only 'negative' comment I would give is that we stayed in an upgraded room with shared private pool. I appreciate that there is an adults only pool on the complex but it would be great if some of the blocks of rooms with shared private pools could be allocated to adults only too. It's a bit of a shame that you pay to stay in a room with a pool but then can't sit around it due to screaming children!

We stayed here on the night of our wedding, in the honeymoon suite which was £305 a night! I am well travelled and used to being in hotels, that amount of money should give you one spectacular room, oh how wrong we were. We arrived at 1130pm to be greeted by a night porter who was reluctant to answer the call bells and proceeded to take us to three other rooms before eventually finding the suite. The room was dark and dated. The toilet once flushed continued to flush all night as it was broken, the toiletries were open and half used and had not been replaced from the last guests, the ceiling had holes in it, the room was part of a number of villas which meant we were surrounded by screaming children the next morning (in a honeymoon suite....really???) the private pool not so or8vate, shared by 5 rooms, the sea view .........I think I could just about see some blue from the patio door. The best bit was they tried to bill us for the room as we left, despite the fact it had been paid for and when I complained about our stay, the receptionist looked at me and said ‘thank you for letting me know’ Unreal. Very, very disappointed with what should have been an amazing night.
