Luxurious bathroom at Eliamos

Why you’ll love it: Guests appreciate our holistic approach to offering a genuine wellness experience, which is why wellness is extended beyond our spa walls. Here at Eliamos Spa, we offer two-private rooms for treatments, along with an array of treatments for guests to choose from. We have an amazing outdoor wooden gym and yoga deck looking out across the sea, and offer nutritious, balanced options in our menus. Guests can also opt for in-villa treatments. 

Key features: We have two treatment rooms in our wellness center, which use local products. Guests are asked about any problem areas, as well as what they'd like to achieve from their treatment, and from there our therapist offers a tailored treatment, ensuring guests leave feeling rejuvenated and relaxed.

Spa snacks: A selection of tea and herb infusions are available on our compliments at the end of the therapy/ massage.

Dining options: At Eliamos, guests can expect fresh, healthy, and above all, flavorsome food in our restaurant and café/bar with organic, local, and regionally sourced food in an earthy format and feel without pretense. Guests can kick-start each morning with a healthy breakfast full of flavourful, nutritious treats or savor Mediterranean dishes with a modern twist, prepared with quality ingredients from local farmers and producers. 

Signature treatments: We offer different types of massage such as relaxing, therapeutic, sports, and even pregnancy massage, as well as facial treatment programs which are special for every face and age. Also, there are the after-sun programs for the whole body and the face which are programs when the skin has suffered from prolonged exposure to the sun and has burned.

The most popular treatments are the relaxing, therapeutic, and sports massage lasting an hour along with a combination of head or face massage, as it helps guests to relax both physically and mentally. 

Most unique treatment: Reflexology, with appropriate pressures on the soles of the feet, helps to relax the nerve endings of the body's organs. It helps relieve the stress and tension that accumulates in the body every day.

Wellness experiences: Here at Eliamos, we offer a wide range of experiences for our guests to choose from. Whether it be our unique and memorable spa offerings, fitness classes taught by our in-house instructor, or off-site excursions, such as wine tasting, horseback riding, turtle watching, private boat tours, and guided stargazing at the Dark Sky Park within the Mount Ainos National Park, we’re able to create unique and unforgettable experiences for each and every guest. 

Featured products: We feature Zealots of Nature, an exclusive Greek 100% natural based brand. It’s herb-based, ideal for soothing and natural massage oils.
