keep seeing alot of negative comments about the elga. you've gotta respect your room and the staff (especially darren - legend and butch - even bigger legend) we had the absolute best holiday of our lives been on a couple of lads holidays maga, kavos but kos is without a doubt the absolute daddy of a party resort the pr's and people in general are awesome as long as you aren't a dickhead we met some absolutely legendary people (like az , bielby, foggy, gaz and the rest of the boys and the welsh lasses). who cares if its not quiet if you want peace go somewhere else could have been cleaner(wasn't exactly dirty) its much better than any other hotel - trust me (most of the others are s**tbombs)
it was too hot, no air con. wouldnt recomend for a lads hol. crackers is bangin tho. oooh raaa
We just got back from a week in Kardamena (7-14 sept 06) and i'd say ignore all the comments..the hotel is basic but has everything you need. we got out breakage deposit back and there were slight marks on out sheets which weren't an issue! the location itself is fab..a short walk from everything including the bars and the beach. i'd definately go again!!!
Hi we stayed in the apartment in early august '06' and the nightlife was fantastic, the hotel is basically what u paid for, but the holiday is what u make of it so dont be put off!! We advise the faom party at starlight, its wkd, but be prepared to get very WET, and wake up the next morning with unidentified drunken injuries.!!
Stayed at the Elga from 4th till 11th May 06. First week of the opening of the season. Elga was well quiet while werwere there - felt like we had a private pool most of the holiday! Cant fault the location though!

sorry to disappoint u heather but i was the rep at the elga until the 6th of october, for escapades there was me, scott and stu, and we were never on anything and we were always at the hotel, on our last week we were there 3 days bcos os paperwork, but had notices up and a number to contact us.
Holiday wa great but didnt really rate the hotel at all. They absolutely stung you for money! When i first went on this site before i went to Kos and was reading about not getting deposits back i was like o yeah whatever what did you really do?...Now i know you all did nothing! They changed our white towels once in a fortnight and then tried to keep our deposit coz they were dirty at the end of the holiday. Managed to get it back after a struggle. Lads next door got charged for things they had not even done.
Only good thing about the hotel is Butch the barman.Stayed here from 28July for 1 week. Rooms as always in Greece are basic, if you want a shower you will have to use it betweet 3-5, cos its all solar powered! The hotel do charge you for everything possible in order not to give your deposit back but the holiday was so damn good that it didnt matter. Great location, in between the 2 clubs! Was not to keen on the hotel dog, didnt see that in the brochure when we booked up ! Butch is a joker, he is a fun guy who liked us all to get our c*nts out! Scottie was fun, I think probaby the 2 safest blokes on the island! Keep on playing pur wheels on the bus CD baby!
just got bak from kos. was fab! got to say hi to the sheffield girls - lol n danni you know who u r! also got 2 say hi to the plastic scousers. we stopped in the elga from the 14th to the 28th of july. was brill. tho they do try n con u out of ur deposit. if u went then u will know scotty not too hotty n stu ie syd the sloth! funny reps if a little sleazy! get yourself down to the jolly rodger cocktails r 2 4 1 if u aint on a pub crawl! also if u go with escapades then the excursions r good for meeting every1 but the food they provide is s**t n the trips rnt great! we had a fab girly holiday n would def reccommend it! if u want 2 chat or know n e fin bout kardamena or the elga just email one of us!
elga is fab, only downer is that u gotta pay 80euro deposit on arrival n most ppl dont get it back, we did tho!! they try n charge u 4 evre thing like dirty towels which they only changed 3 times in the 2 weeks we were there! theyl charge u 12euros per towel.
hi all,
Hey everyone, cant believe how much we are missing elga. We had a fantastic time getting corona'd at 10am every morning. The atmosphere was brilliant and we want to say hi to Jen, Stu, Butch and the rest of the gang. Cheers for a fab holiday, see ya 2006!!!!
