Accoglienza

Wouldn't change a thing !

Gabriele and Riccardo are excellent hosts making you feel welcome and "at home".

Detail oriented like who really cares about his guests and his job does.

The whole stuff is very professional, friendly and overall excellent !

Hotel Elios got gifted with the loveliest people on earth. Every holiday feels like a trip to heaven. Even if italian is not your language of use, you can easily communicate with them in english or german. In addition to that, Hotel Elios has the best food I've ever had - you can choose your favourite meals and get served a 5-star-dish. My boyfriend and I absolutely loved it and we make sure to go there again next year (and the year after that, and of course the year after that)

This hotel is one of the best hotels we have ever been too! This family run hotel takes care of its guests, and they go out of their way to deliver on excellent service. This is the second year in a row we have gone to this hotel, and we will continue to go to this hotel for the next years. The food is amazing! the rooms are amazing! the hotel is amazing! And of course the staff and the owners are AMAZING!
We can only recommend this hotel for everyone!

They are amazing people and we enjoyed our stay!

My family and I are visiting this place since I was a little kid and we keep coming back every year. The thing that keeps us coming back every year is the staff and the great food they cook. I have ti say that i have not ever met more friendlier staff ... I even befriended some of thwm and I keep chatting with them over social media till today. The food is unbelievably tasty and well prepared. I couldn't imagine a summer without staying at hotel Elios or as we call it Ricardos after the owner of the hotel. He is one of the friendliest people I know and he goes out his way to make us feel comfortable. His son Gabriele takes after him in kindness and hard-working. I can't wait to come back this summer.

Everyone connected with running this hotel were so friendly and helpful. Riccardo checked us in, helped my husband find somewhere to park, and then managed to find adjacent rooms for ourselves and our daughter.
We enjoyed the beach area, with the inflatables, table tennis etc.
At breakfast time we were offered eggs and bacon, which was great. We didn't have full board as we like to eat in different restaurants, plus we find the idea of a full lunch and dinner too much. However this area is very much geared towards full board. The beach emptied at 1pm, as everyone went over to the hotel for lunch. There weren't that many restaurants nearby, as presumably there isn't a massive demand.
On the day we checked out we were offered a small room so that we could continue using the beach until the afternoon.
Really enjoyed our stay in this lovely family run hotel.

This is a third generation family owned hotel. The owner, Riccardo, his children Gabriele, Anna Rosa, and additional hotel family Max, Ivo and Lavinia welcomed us and made us feel like a part of their family instantly. They couldn’t do enough for us. We have traveled extensively and stayed in many 5 star hotels… but none of them were as wonderful as our stay at Hotel Elios!

The rooms are not elaborate but are very well presented and all of our needs were more than well met (even the bedding was quite comfortable)! The hotel staff that took care of our rooms were friendly and super considerate – they were quietly attentive to our schedule and knew the best time to come and clean without disturbing our stay. Everything was always spotless and perfect – daily!!

And I cannot say enough about the food….3 full meals a day, included in the cost of our room. The breakfast and appetizers are served buffet style, but you get to choose your first & second courses for lunch and dinner (and also dessert), which are served at your table. And be prepared, there is no way that you will go hungry because the portions are virtually never ending. All of the food is freshly made right there, including the pastas, breads, and pizzas. We were up one night while Riccardo himself was baking bread and pizzas! The wait staff are all over the top cheerful & attentive.

The hotel has its own private beach across the street, where we had reserved sun loungers and a table with a sun umbrella, again, all included in the cost of our stay. We got to meet and interact with many of the other hotel guests, making new friends from around the world! The beach has a very large and safe lagoon bathing area which is patrolled by lifeguards, outdoor table tennis, showers, a lovely beach bar (run by Riccardo’s son, Gabriele), bocci ball areas, and even inflatables rafts and toys for the children.

The trip was a family reunion for us, which in itself was a happy and wonderfully perfect event. Riccardo and his family and staff made it all the more perfect by creating the feeling that we really were at home.

It's the friendliness and the extra thoughtfulness that puts this hotel and its people head & shoulders above the rest!! We will be back!!

I only wish I could show you in pictures how great an experience we had. The food, location and friendly staff were fabulous. A beautiful beach with 2 bocce courts. Only allowed so many words I can use. We plan on returning to this little slice of heaven on earth. Thanks Ricardo,Lavinia Ivo, Gabriel, Max and AnnaRosa. Hard to explain wonderful time. See you next year Ricardo. Difficult to get to easily, but worth every hour spent on planes and cars.

It is with a heavy heart and heavy stomachs that we leave Hotel Elios after a glorious long Easter weekend. For once here is a hotel which exceeds its reviews.

A small third generation hotel with a greeting which is truely a family welcome by Gabrielle who now runs the hotel although the grandparents are always around to chat to guests in English, French or Italian as is the sister and other members of the hotel family. You are warmly welcomed and in the rooms in a few minutes.

Directly across from the beach, it is easy for kids to wander back and forth and entertain themselves with the local Italian kids. While parents can visit the little shops and marina or also hang out in the eternal sun.

Emilia Romana is the home of Italian cuisine and this hotel has home cooked food which is wonderful and reflects the region. From sea bass, veal to tuna so well cooked it melts in your mouth to fresh mussels; every day brings more delicacies and surprises. Pasta courses and desserts are also wonderful and there are seconds and thirds if you can take it. Food served with a genuine charm and love in a way which cannot be replicated.

At 18:00 there are appetisers at the bar and it is wonderful to start the evening with local wines and salami, anchovies and parma reggiana playing cards overlooking the Adriatic from the hotel.

Breakfast is wonderful with local cakes, hams, cheeses or bacon and eggs freshly prepared.

This is a hotel for those who want to be part of something, to immerse themselves in the local culture, to leave feeling a change somehow ...perhaps wanting to be a bit more Italian.

This is not a 5 Star hotel and I know some would demand to be closeted away in luxury somewhere away from the real Italy . But this is the real Italy right here. Somehow Hotel Elios becomes your family and I know my family will return next year. A true gem.

Below is a copy of my last review. The only thing I can ad is that everyone is as smiling and pleasant as we always remember - and there are potted palm trees on our balcony. :>)

"Riccardo and his son, Gabriele, make us feel so welcome - almost like family. This is our 5th stay at this delightful hotel directly across from the beach.

Our large room has one of the 2 huge balconies on the first floor (2nd floor in the US) - overlooking the Adriatic.

We only take half board, as the food is so delicious, if we ate lunch here, we would get charged extra by the airplanes on our way home! :>)

The appetizers are served buffet style, but you choose your first & second courses (the night before), which are served at your table, as well as your chosen dessert. The wait staff are all exceedingly cheerful & attentive.

Across the street is the private beach with your reserved chaises & umbrella. The 2 bocce ball courts are almost always in use. Plus there is a ping pong table.

In the morning, and especially in the evening after dinner, people gather on the large covered veranda to chat and watch the people on the sidewalk below pass by.

Riccardo, Gabriele and the receptionist are always happy to help with any touristic information.

Each time, it is harder for us to say goodbye!!"

I have been coming back often to Hotel Elios for 31 years now with family and friends. I am meeting adults I have seen in Hotel Elios when they were children. I am sure my children will someday bring their children. Repeat business like this is indicative of the (consistent) excellent management of Hotel Elios by Riccardo.

I can't possibly expand on the praise for Riccardo and his staff and the entire customer service experience that my family has experienced year after year.
Gabriele's management of the beach bar is a perfect compliment to the Hotel Elios adjacent private beach area as well.

And we already miss what we consider the best food in the world.
