Well located beautiful resort
After a shaky start involving an “upgrade” to an inferior room (declined ) we came away from a five night stay with good memories of the Emelisse. It is well laid out across a headland next to the picturesque town of Fiskardo. We had a room with shared pool access (recommended) which was spacious, clean and private. The resort has an impressive swimming pool for all guests as well as one just for adults in a separate quiet area. A small pebble beach with stunning water is a short walk away. Breakfast is excellent. The restaurant provides reasonable lunch and dinner offerings and there are many dining options at Fiskardo (accessible via shuttle at lunchtime and in the evening). Staff are lovely and service is generally very good. If you book a trip to Kefalonia, you should see this part of the island and you should stay at the Emelisse if you do.

What a beautiful hotel! We had the most incredible stay at Emelisse, the food is outstanding with a lot of choice and variety and not a single dudd on the menu, everything we ordered was absolutely delicious and fresh local produce, the breakfast buffet is the best I’ve had and the views from the hotel are breathtaking. Lots of activities available, we played tennis and games and went kayaking, but also would have been totally happy laying by the pool the entire time it was so relaxing. All the staff were so friendly and helpful the service is top notch, very hard to leave this place at the end of our stay! Can’t recommend enough.

Beautiful property with multiple pools. Gorgeous views. Lives the fancy boat trip to neighboring islands and highly recommend it. Easy parking. Had to ask for coffee pods daily rather than getting refills. Also requested oat milk, which had to be delivered or i would pick up from reception area. Fitness center not open until 8.

A ‘nice’ resort with a spectacular pool area. Restaurant is good, while buffet breakfast is decent but no a la cart available. Main issue with the resort is parking. If you arrive by car expect to park outside on the roadside. Checkin was the most awkward experience ever when trying to enter the main entrance getting told there is no parking and told needed to wait on the roadside for buggies to collect you and your bags to reception. Rooms are decent size but bathrooms a bit disappointing with small basins and little room for toiletries. Decor is a bit ‘meh’ but functional. Balcony and view was spectacular for our dual room family suite. Overall not a 5 star to me but about 4.5 … could be really good but let down in some simple areas, perhaps due to sale of day passes to casual visitors.

Health and safety crisis.
It was terrible we had a book for six days. We ended up only staying one night and leaving early. They do not comply with health and safety standards. When we asked for a refund they refused. Hotels.com also did not intervene which made us very unhappy. We lost thousands of pounds and we are not happy.

Disappointing
Emelisse Nature Resort is a Hotel that was probably amazing and fully deserving of their 5 stars 10 - 15 years ago. The rooms are nice but you can feel that a lot of it is old or not been serviced for a while. The pool area is fantastic and the view is great. The staff is very helpful sometimes a little too much but I had issues with the restaurant and especially the chef. None of the food plays up the to price tag that is set on it. You can make a steak look very pretty but you can't hide the fact it's overcooked and tasteless. On a personal note I have allergies and during the evening there are only 4 things on the menu that I could eat and the chef refused to try to change some things because the menu is the menu. Even with a menu of 50 items in the daytime that are completely off in the evening. This is the reason I would never pay to go back their again.
