awesome spot

My partner and I are staying here for a week on vacay. the pools are great. The hot tub is great. It is close to the beach. Some of the guests are friendly others are about their own business . . . but that's okay every now and again. Not very many super models as far as looks go but I like my men unique with great personality. The staff is fabulous. The fitness room could use some work but a good jog on the beach will do you just fine. I would definitely come back.

Fun...fun...fun

I stayed at the Elysium for three days and wished I would have booked it for a week or two. Great location, close to the beach and restaurants and a very friendly staff. We are in our 50's but the age ranged from 20's and up....everybody interacted and we had a great time....would recommend the Elysium at any time. Rooms were not the Ritz but they were clean and everything worked!!

Awesome experience

This was my first experience at any gay resort. I was scared initially. But the place is amazing. Rooms so clean and impeccable. Large spacious with kitchens. Has people from all ages around you and two pools, which i couldnt use. The staff and owners are friendly and help you out with a lot of stuff, and provide with useful information for new people to the area. Would visit again

Great place to stay july 4th week!

I have been going to the Elysium for the 4th of July week, almost every year for several years, and I have to say Im not sure about the authenticity of the horribly negative reviews on here, because in my 6 or 7, 10 day stays Ive never seen ANY attitude from the owners. They are incredibly nice and hospitable. Most likely the negatives are competitors trying to trash their good name. The rooms are always clean. The property is immaculate and very pretty. Everyone that comes here drops the attitude and relaxes. The visitor age ranges alot, but one thing Ive noticed is if you prefer the younger croud they certainly come here on 4th of July week. For some reason its the place to go for the young croud, probably bacause the prices are so reasonable. I would say 60-70 percent of the clientel that week is 18-30. Anyways Dont hesitate to make reservations!!!! The Elysium ROX!!!!
