Elarin

A lovely little family-run hotel on the outskirts of faliraki. It's quiet, about a 10-minute walk to both the beach and town. The service was fantastic and everyone was so friendly. The food is basic, but cooked really well. The pool is lovely, and the rooms are simple and comfortable.

We had a fantastic stay at the Elarin and couldn't fault it. The studio apartments run by the family were spotless, the food was very good, and the family and staff were friendly and helpful. It's a great spot if you want some peace but still want to be close to Faliraki's busy areas. The relaxed atmosphere was lovely. After a night out, sometimes around 1.30 am, we'd sit by the pool with drinks and unwind. The pool area looks lovely lit up at night, and there were plenty of sunbeds for its size. The beach is about a 10-minute walk away. The bus stop for Rhodes or Lindos is at most a three-minute walk down the lane on the main road. Thanks to everyone at Elarin. We'd happily come back and recommend it to anyone wanting a good base for Faliraki.

We've just got home after 10 days, and this was our best stay out of three trips to faliraki. The rooms were spotless and cleaned daily, breakfast and dinner were 10/10, and there was always a sun lounger free. The pool was brilliant and not too cold. Everyone was unbelievably friendly and could not do enough for us, especially Jenny and angel. They were great with our five-year-old too. It's in a perfect spot, with the first restaurant or bar a 3-5 minute walk away and the main strip about 10 minutes away. There are a couple of cats around, all vaccinated, and our little girl loved them. We couldn't find a bad thing to say. We'd highly recommend it and will definitely be back.

There are lots of nice restaurants nearby, and the small supermarket right next door is handy. The location is in the nicer part of Falaraki, not far from the beach. You can get nice meals downstairs, along with drinks and snacks. The pool is clean and warm, though not large, and there's also a shallow pool that's only half a meter deep. The rooms are pleasant, with a nice balcony, and staff are very friendly and helpful. A few things could be better. The mattress was hard and the pillows flat. Air conditioning costs €8 per night and was noisy even on quiet mode. The shower is very small, and the curtain kept sticking to me. Toilet paper can't be flushed, which was a bit gross, though the cleaner came every day to change towels and empty bins. The poolside toilets were clean and always had toilet roll. I wouldn't recommend the shower room, since the cloudy glass door doesn't give much privacy and feels awkward when people can see in. Still, it's a really nice place to stay.
