Very dirty kitchen,lots of foods expired ! Very poor menu. Terrible!

The whole atmosphere and place were magical, very relaxing, and chill. It was my surprise for the birthday of my husband, and he really loved it! But in general, for a romantic night, or just to relax, is the perfect location... It's like you are entering the paradise ✨️
Clean, big and pretty rooms, very comfy beds and pillows, the smell of the herbs in front was wonderful.
The interior of the restaurant was very beautiful, and the food was super tasty. I eat an octopus, and it was the most tasty one that ever tried 😋
Then, to finish properly this escape, we had a nice couple massage ❤️💆‍♀️ 💆‍♂️❤️
Definitely, we will make such an escape again! It's worthy 🙌

I haven't stayed there as a guest, but attended the New year's Eve party and the food and atmosphere were lovely!

We absolutely loved Aelia! It’s a small boutique hotel, beautifully designed with natural decor, perfect for relaxing and escaping the crowds. The room was spacious, spotless, and super comfy, with a rosemary-scented terrace. The lounge area was calm and cozy, perfect to unwind with a cup of tea after a massage. We tried the face, leg, and full-body massages — all done professionally with great care.
The food was delicious, and the waiter was very friendly and kind. For my birthday, they surprised me with a cake and sang in English and Greek — such a sweet touch!
All the staff were wonderful, and special thanks to Julia for handling our booking so quickly and thoughtfully. We left completely relaxed and can’t wait to come back!

The perfect resort located in a calm and isolated place, where you can rest and regain your lost energy. The food and service is great. Definitely recommend it to visit for your stay, food, relaxation, a calm evening or even your wedding!! Don’t forget to try the massage services and their awesome freshly made deserts!! Props to the management.

Absolutely loved my experience at Cocoon Spa! The atmosphere was peaceful, the staff were kind and professional, and my treatment was incredible. I left feeling totally relaxed and refreshed. Highly recommended! Amazing dinner and breakfast!

What I liked about this property is that it's quiet, health oriented, beautifully designed based on a therapeutic theme

It's such a shame. The place looks beautiful, and it's clear that a lot of time, money, and effort went into designing Aelia. However, there seems to be absolutely no ongoing maintenance. It feels like nothing has been done to preserve the property since it was built. We visited today, and with two christenings and a wedding taking place, it’s easy to see why they may not bother with the spa or other facilities when they're generating significant income from events. The last time I visited a couple of years ago, I was already disappointed with the massage service. I had booked a facial and a massage. Typically, a neck massage is included during a facial. I was in the same room as a friend, and when her therapist started her neck massage, my therapist quietly whispered in my ear: "Since you're getting a massage later, you don’t want the neck massage now, right?" — and left before I had a chance to reply. Today, I decided to give Aelia another chance and booked a massage and lunch with friends. We were greeted at reception and asked to wait in the waiting area, which was uncomfortably warm due to the lack of air conditioning. We weren’t offered anything to drink — not even water. Visible signs of decay could be seen on the walls and floor, and the tent above us was covered in black mold. To be fair, the massage itself was quite good. The lunch was also enjoyable, but again, the overall maintenance was lacking. For example, the menus were just printed on cheap paper, worn and torn. Finally, you can't really call this a spa, with just a few treatment rooms for massage. It needs at least a swimming pool. A sauna and steam room would be nice, but a swimming pool is a must. There is absolutely nothing to do after you finish your therapy. Overall, while the place looks nice at first glance, it’s in desperate need of proper maintenance, renovation, and improved service.
