Pool beautiful and clean, local bars and restaurants are great with very friendly people and great welcome. Then you have the only problem. The manager Thassos who is like a poisonous smell around the place with his arrogance and bad attitude to his customers. He seems to live in a world where everyone else is at fault. His voice can be heard all day, EVERY day shouting at customers and staff alike. His head is so far up his rear end that he hasn’t seen daylight for years. We would return to this idyllic place anytime and recommend it to anyone IF!!! he wasn’t there. Totally ruined our stay by losing the plot and upsetting everyone on such gorgeous, sunny days which should have been memorable for all the great things about Ela Mesa and the beautiful village of Souvlana but will only be remembered by our meeting this horrible, sad little man. Having read many reviews on trip advisor BEFORE our holiday and ignoring the warning signs about this little dictator who has more rules than a prison commandant, please stop and think again. I would warn anyone thinking about going to think hard and not make the same mistake that we made. DONT BOTHER JUST LOOK ELSEWHERE. ##### Brian Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Petronela 26 Sept 2024 Liked: Amenities Great spot, quiet and close of everything. The owner helped us to rent a car, which was great. The Aegina Island is very beautiful, the view is spectacular. We went to Afaia Temple and the view was stunning. The roads are so so, but stit ok. Great Greek Taverns close too. ##### Petronela Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Angelika 19 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Die Unterkunft ist recht gut. Nur der Ort bietet überhaupt nichts. Wenn man nicht nur am Pool liegen will, braucht man unbedingt ein Auto. Zum Baden souvala nicht zu empfehlen. ##### Angelika Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nick 27 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities A well run hotel, the staff are very friendly with good communication. I needed help getting a taxi when I arrived in Aegina and they arranged one for me within 5 minutes. The hotel is very clean and I loved the pool. The breakfast is nice as well. I can recommend this hotel and hope to come back. ##### Nick Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Tracy 1 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### High highs and low lows This is a hard review to write because there was substantial advantages and good points but also some concerns. I’ll start with the good points. Nice breakfast with a variety of protein (eggs, sausage, yougurt) and carbs (pastries, fresh bread, etc.). Great location as it is close to many sights (Temple of Aphaia, beaches) but still only a 15- minute drive from Aegina town. Pool is beautiful. Staff very friendly and helpful. But unfortunately not everything was perfect. We had to switch rooms after two nights because the A/C wasn’t working. Those nights were very hot. And it took quite a bit of convincing to get the rather crusty owner to acknowledge the problem. (We even went to a hardware store and bought a thermometer!) In the second room (which was very large and cool), the bed wasn’t great. And lastly, the wifi sucked. We always used data. Driving around, the hotel stock in Aegina seems rather poor (compared to what I’m used to), so this might actually have been one of the nicest places. ##### Tracy Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Chankyu 26 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication Our stay at Ela Mesa was great, the staff was so warm and accommodating. ##### Chankyu Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lewis 16 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication #### Excellent hotel The hotel was lovely and a 5 min walk to the small harbour village. The room was serviced every day with linen change every 3 days. All staff were very helpful and friendly. Lovely beach 5 mins walk beyond the harbour up the steps of the end restaurant. Free sunbeds if you buy a coffee or snack. Delicious homemade food and excellent breakfast. Pool is lovely and we were often the only ones using it. Would recommend. ##### Lewis Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Serguei 4 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Great convenient location and good condition of propery, friendly and helpful property owner and staff.

Free upgrade. Hugh room with all facilities (refrigerator, oven, hair dryer, they have even a fire place) The hotel have 2 swimming pools (one is private if you book the 2 specific rooms.) Breakfast it could be little better but still i am very satisfiyed.

I accidentally broke a cheap plastic lid to the cistern when pressing the flush button(on first day) and I felt intimidated by his displeasure. It subsequently made me uncomfortable and I did not stay on the premises other than to change and sleep. Lid was replaced within a couple of hours and could not have cost that much. Needs some customer services training. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 6 nights in May 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 15 May 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The owner and staff were very welcoming!

We stayed at the Ela Mesa for a fabulous two weeks of relaxation and in a lovely room with great views of the sea from the balcony. All the staff are wonderful and so so helpful and kind at all times. The buffet breakfast has a huge choice and is so tasty - Greek yoghurt, honey, a variety of fresh fruit, cheeses, eggs, meats, breads, pastries and more - delicious. We also ate at the restaurant and found the food to be superb - Greek traditional hot food and salads and a wonderful Fisherman's Spaghetti. We took a trip over to Athens for a day each week - the city is breathtaking and pretty easy to reach by ferry or Flying Dolphin from Aegina Port and the Metro from Piraeus. Lots to see and do on the island too; car hire is reasonable. A truly wonderful place to stay - we are definitely going back: so many people staying when we did were regular visitors which is a huge recommendation in itself. ##### Carmel Stayed 14 nights in Sep 2018 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotels near Dubai Mall](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dubai-Mall-Hotels.0-l6123356-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [The Roc Club, A Grecotel Hotel to Live](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Athens-Hotels-The-Roc-Club.h1107812.Hotel-Information) > > [Divani Apollon Palace & Thalasso](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Athens-Hotels-Divani-Apollon-Palace-Thalasso.h527451.Hotel-Information) > > [Blazer Suites Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Athens-Hotels-Blazer-Suites-Hotel.h1639808.Hotel-Information) > > [Mangia's Brucoli, Sicily, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Augusta-Hotels-Brucoli-Village.h1619803.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Vincci EverEden](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Athens-Hotels-EverEden-Beach-Resort-Hotel.h663369.Hotel-Information) > > [Sofitel Dubai Jumeirah Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dubai-Hotels-Sofitel-Dubai-Jumeirah-Beach.h2557312.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Astir Palace Hotel Athens](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Athens-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Astir-Palace-Hotel-Athens.h16279225.Hotel-Information) > > [A Hidden Sanctuary In Athens Riviera-Saronida](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Athens-Hotels-A-Hidden-Sanctuary-In-Athens-Riviera-Saronida.h34018045.Hotel-Information) > > [Apartment- Hotel Altamira](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Adeje-Hotels-Apartment-Hotel-Altamira.h45261046.Hotel-Information) > > [Plaza Resort Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Athens-Hotels-Plaza-Resort-Hotel.h1110109.Hotel-Information) > > [3 Olive Trees](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Athens-Hotels-3-Olive-Trees.h69305470.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Resort Lagonissi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Athens-Hotels-Grand-Resort-Lagonissi.h525289.Hotel-Information) > > [UniversalOrlandoResort Hotels in Orlando](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Orlando-Hotels-Universal-Orlando-Resort.0-0-d178294--bUniversalOrlandoResort.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Best Western Manchester Bury Bolholt Country Park Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bury-Hotels-Best-Western-Manchester-Bury-Bolholt-Country-Park-Hotel.h888936.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Valaisia Crans Montana, a Faern Collection Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Crans-Montana-Hotels-Arenas-Resort-Valaisia.h5209480.Hotel-Information) > > [Calamos Beach Family Club Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Athens-Hotels-Bomo-Calamos-Beach-Hotel-All-Inclusive.h15410090.Hotel-Information) > > [TLH Victoria Hotel - TLH Leisure, Entertainment and Spa Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Torquay-Hotels-TLH-Victoria-Hotel.h6325603.Hotel-Information) > > [Apollonia Hotel Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Athens-Hotels-Apollonia-Hotel-Apartments.h908931.Hotel-Information) > > [Athenian Riviera Hotel & Suites](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Athens-Hotels-Athenian-Riviera-Hotel-Suites.h18665618.Hotel-Information) > > [Oasis Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Agistri-Hotels-Oasis-Beach-Hotel.h1705906.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Avra by Smile hotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Athens-Hotels-Avra-Hotel.h987641.Hotel-Information) > > [Luxury Hotels in Hull](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hull-Hotels-Luxury-Hotel.0-0-d10154-tLuxuryHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) ### Flights > [Flights from Athens (ATH) to Edinburgh (EDI)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/ath/edi/athens-to-edinburgh) > > [Flights from London (LHR) to Santiago de Compostela (SCQ)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/scq/london-to-santiago-de-compostela) ### Activities > [Things to do in Calgary](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Calgary.d178245.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Florida](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/theme-holidays/golf-holidays/211/Florida) > > [Pefkos Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pefkos-Beach-Rhodes.d6138862.Attraction)
