Just back from an amazing week at the Elba. What a fantastic hotel, I booked to stay in the adults only part but you have access to the entire complex.
I literally cannot fault anything about the hotel-the rooms were like small apartments complete with your own private decking area. Clean and modern with all the things you’d want for your stay.
The hotel was spotless and the staff are amazing no matter what their jobs were they are an excellent team who go out of their way to make sure guests stays are enjoyable. The food was very good especially in the adult only restaurant where the choice was excellent and very tasty.
Loads of space around the pool area and never an issue finding a good spot.
Only a 10-15 walk into town where the views are amazing and there is some fantastic bars/restaurants.
All in all a great holiday so much so I’m going to re-book for next year.
On a side note I just wanted to say for anyone with kids this is a brilliant hotel-I wish I knew about this hotel for when mine was younger. The entertainment team were the best I’ve saw in any hotel, hard working and friendly and making the kids trips as fun as possible, again everyone of them brilliant but especially I think her name was lulu……she brought so much energy and fun to the poolside area, made it a great experience. She (and the rest of the team) are a real credit to the hotel, keep up the good work and see you next year!

We stayed at the Elba Suites in Lanzarote, which is rated as a four-star hotel, but in my opinion, it’s closer to a solid three.
The grounds, pools, and rooms are lovely — spacious, clean, and really well-maintained. The hotel itself looks great from the outside, and the location is excellent for exploring the area.
However, the hotel feels quite short-staffed. The staff do try their best, but it’s clear they’re stretched thin, and unfortunately, some of the restaurant staff come across as unfriendly. The food was okay, but for a four-star hotel, I expected more variety and better quality. I also noticed chipped plates and cups in the restaurant, and cracked plastic cups being used around the pool — small details, but they really take away from the overall experience.
One major frustration was the late checkout option. They advertise it, but I’m not convinced anyone actually gets it. You’re told to ask at 6pm the night before leaving, only to be told your room is already allocated. It feels like a pointless offer that just leads to disappointment.
Overall, we had a good holiday — the weather, the setting, and the relaxation made it enjoyable — but I wouldn’t stay in an Elba hotel again. For the price, it’s just not up to four-star standards, and I think the hotel could do a lot more to meet the expectations it sets.

A good hotel, with adults only section, although you have to walk through the non adults only 😆 to get back to reception and breakfast /dinner restaurants.
Breakfast food has a good selection, but the cooked items need some love, bacon swimming in a vat of fat, not really to my liking.
Staff very helpful.
Near impossible to get a late checkout, as you can only ask 6pm the night before

Staff are super friendly and more than happy to help with anything going above and beyond to be helpful.
The entertainment is great for the kids and for adults later on the night. Mike was brilliant brake dancing
