Overall ambiance of Anelia resort is wonderful with beautiful views of the sea,swimming pools,etc.. This is why I call it paradise. All staffs are great and friendly and there at... read more our service at all times we needed them. Shout out to Loshny for assisting all the way through to ensure everything was okay for us even at every moment of our meal. We are food lovers and dessert lovers and I would say that the food is marvellous, well decorated and well served. The most happiest moments and unforgettable moments were during our dinners by the beach with such beautiful ambiance, music, dance, environment of food, friendly staffs. Another most remarkable thing was the desserts. Wow! Super cute setup with amazing combinations of colours and designs on the desserts. Go get these varieties of desserts and you will not be disappointed. Special salute to Chef Noor and his assistant Chef Hiresh who were so friendly and attentive to our needs as we as a family are known to have a sweet tooth when it comes to desserts. If you want authentic desserts then Anelia resort is the one to shout out for during your stay. I would say its a slice of heaven. Anelia resort is place to come back for countless times.

When I asked for a washed cup, she did it again. I then asked if I can have a cup that someone didn't just drink from, at which point the manager or someone came over and gave me a clean cup. I was absolutely baffled by the whole scenario.
The quality of the food was low. The only good food were the indian dishes (note that I'm not Indian nor have been there so no idea how authentic it was) as they tasted very good and were somewhat spicy. Also the fried eggs at breakfast were good. Everything else was kind of awful.
The bar staff had zero training whatsoever. They didn't know how to make most of the cocktails so they googled them there and then or improvised. None of them were even close to what they're supposed to be. Also, when asking for dry wine, the bartender kept giving me very sweet ones. They had no idea what they were serving.
So while the room, the view and the pool were nice, I really cannot recommend the hotel. The staff are not professionally trained at all. More

Thank you for the good job guys.

Food awful, seemed to be 80% of the guests were Indian so the food was always Rice with curried meat. No chips. Had to beg chef each night for plain... read more pizza and thank god otherwise we would have starved.
I lost 8kg in one week.
Mainly from the fruit based mocktails and awful food.
The sports equipment which you had to sign for was snooker cues without tips and broken table tennis balls so when you walk round the corner it’s no surprise to find the tables broken as well.
Entertainment is non existent unless you class the overweight staff jingling and pretending to belly dance. Worst I’ve ever witnessed. Nothing to do after pleasant beach sunset walk as the tv in rooms have one English Channel a the beds are rock hard.
You can also hear everything from next door due to the shared door.
Spa isn’t a Spa, jacuzzi not heated and loads of broken tiles which also fills with rain water.
Staff are pleasant but low intelligence.
Unfortunately the transport driver stole our mobile phone so not the best first few days as had to track it and go and collect it myself. Not hotels fault but the travel company who provided the transport.
Stunning sunsets and man made scenery though.
Gardens are very well kept.
Maintenance not kept up as loungers green and pool furniture never been cleaned. Now seeing as you have a member of staff sat guarding the rags of towel surely that member of staff would be better put to use and pool drinks service didn’t exist most days.
Expected paradise like the zilwa attitude we previously stayed at. Instead this was awful food very limited and desperation to get home.

The food was delicious every evening , we had a super dinner on the beach to celebrate our anniversary which the restaurant staff made very special
Our room was clean adequate but the rooms facing directly onto the beach are lovely.
The only criticism I struggled with was the pool I love to swim but it was freezing !!! No heating ! pool attendant was friendly and nothing a bother. Last but no way least Loshny the F & B manager who over looked most meals with a lovely manner and smile chatted politely to guests making sure they where happy and satisfied with their stay and ready asset to your hospitality team.
This hotel isn’t to big and has a personal touch, which we enjoyed.

With choice of 2 swimming pools, gymnasium, Spa, water sports, a miniature reading library, the small beach with the rocky patch, there is so much to do for everyone including fishing. An impressive spread of Indian Vegetarian food is available for Dinner apart from the usual spread of continental, french & seafood. Special thanks to Lucy - our Pizza lady for baking such delicious pizzas every night for us & Purnima from the Reception - for being so helpful right from our checkin till checkout. The entire staff was so wonderful- warm, friendly, helpful & smiling, the rooms were very clean & spacious with fantastic views, the weather was pleasant & lovely being winters with occassional rains, the food was delicious with lip-smacking cuisines, the in-house activities and daily evening entertaintment sessions were vibrant with playful music, and of course the best part being the outrageously stunning views everday especially during sunsets - simply magical ! The little town of Flic Flac is hardly a 10 minute walk away and everything is available out there - the local people being very friendly.
This was one memorable week of sheer pure relaxation, luxury & rejuvenation in paradise for us mother-daughter duo.
Highly recommended for everyone ...couples, families with children, teenagers , friends.
