Charming

If the promise of love was a place, it would look a lot like Elix – the upmarket hotel standing tall on a hillside, overseeing the tranquil Ionian Sea. This romantic retreat is just a stone’s throw from the stunning Karavostasi Beach, a mere 21 km from the historic Parga Castle, and an easy 87 km from Aktion International Airport. The chic rooms boasting Wi-Fi, flat-screens, and furnished balconies with sea views, are just the beginning of what Elix has to offer. It’s all about the details here – from the private pools in upgraded quarters to the round-the-clock room service – Elix leaves no stone unturned in making your stay a memorable one.

Accommodation

Each room at Elix is a testament to luxury. You won’t be able to resist the allure of the furnished balconies that offer uninterrupted sea views, or the convenience of tea and coffeemakers. The suites and family rooms take it a notch higher with spacious living rooms and comfortable sofabeds. And for those who crave an extra dose of opulence, the upgraded quarters come with private pools. No matter where you stay, rest assured, you’ll be pampered with 24/7 room service.

Amenities

Elix is more than just a place to rest your head. With five top-notch restaurants and bars, a relaxing spa, two outdoor pools (including one designed just for the kids), and a hot tub, it’s a world of indulgence. Fitness enthusiasts will appreciate the well-equipped gym, while those looking to explore can head to the tennis courts or try their hand at water sports. And if you’re here for a while, take advantage of the complimentary breakfast and parking services.

Activities and experiences

At Elix, the adventure begins right outside your door. The hotel is surrounded by crystal-clear waters and magnificent pine forests, making it a natural playground for the outdoorsy. You can spend your days hiking, cycling, and enjoying water sports, all while soaking in the magical views of Paxos, Antipaxos, and Corfu islands. For an extra special experience, don’t miss the private tours that will take you to must-see sights and into the Grecian wilds.

Dining

When it comes to dining, Elix is a gourmand’s delight. Its restaurants offer everything from à la carte Greek and Italian dining to laid-back, fresh Mediterranean buffets. And the best part? You can enjoy your meals in a relaxed ambience, surrounded by stunning views. As you witness the sun setting, with a glass of something cold in hand, you’ll feel at one with the magic of this wondrous location.

Nothing says romance like a getaway to Elix. So, pack your bags and let the magic of this stunning hotel sweep you off your feet.

A little corner of Greek heaven

Our first time visiting this resort and what a treat it was. A warm welcome and explanation upon our arrival and we settled in very quickly. The resort itself has been clearly well designed and thought through, in sympathy with the surrounding rocky terrain. The flower beds are beautiful, and...

Beautiful setting, but service and food let it down

The hotel itself is beautiful. We were welcomed with drinks on arrival, and our bags were taken to our room, which was lovely and offered an amazing view of the sea. Breakfast had a good variety to choose from, and lunch at the pool bar was enjoyable. However, the overall...

Average

Pool music far too loud to relax especially if you want to listen to your personal music via earphones as it is still overpowering. Room cleaning varies sometimes excellent other times a complete rush and half done ? Food very good , would I come again I don’t think so

Wonderful Elix

Another amazing holiday at Elix. The hotel is stunning, staff wonderful and food and drinks super. We spent mornings by the pool and afternoons lounging by the beach, swimming in the crystal clear water. Really can’t fault anything and already planning our return for 2026.
