The rooms were lovely with amazing beach access and views, beach bar and pool. Lovely beds and pillows, showers etc. Very tasteful and clean. The real stand out is the staff. Teresa at the front desk made our stay absolutely magical. She went above and beyond, even helping arrange a surprise proposal, many activities and romantic outings. Every staff member was just so accommodating, attentive and compassionate. Truly an amazing stay right in the heart of placencia village steps from many fun, colorful and delicious food and drink.

Best hotel experience we have ever had. Rooms were clean, decorated nicely, the beach area is very convenient and well kept. Vanessa at the pool bar makes some amazing cocktails. The rooftop restaurant has great views and tasty food. Teresa at the front desk spoiled us by ensuring everything went smoothly, booked restaurant reservations and excursions for us, and was absolutely lovely to chat with. I can’t recommend the Ellysian enough, we would go back in a heart beat.

Staff was great, really great. Probably the best restaurant on the island. My wife also liked the spa. Housekeeping was a bit uneven but got sorted out. The big problems are: (1) the furniture in the room was uncomfortable-you sit down on the furniture and there is so little padding you realize you’re sitting on the wood frame of every piece; and (2) for God’s sake put a decent coffee maker in the kitchen - not a WW2 relic.
