Emelisse Hotel
Best for
All ages, although the terraced grounds are not ideal for tiny tots or prams.
Recommended rooms
The two-bedroom family apartments are perfect, with a secluded pool and terraces, kitchenettes, sitting and dining areas – they’re also conveniently located right next to the playground. Maisonettes are similar but spread across two floors.
Activities
There are tennis courts, bikes to borrow and an open-air cinema to keep the kids entertained, as well as a playground for them to romp around in. Horse riding, cruises and scuba diving can be arranged locally; alternatively, hire a boat and choose your own aqua adventure.
Swimming pool
A dedicated children’s pool means adults can enjoy quiet time as well. There’s no lifeguard though, so you’ll have to take it in turns to read your books.
Meals
Children are allowed in the hotel restaurant at all times; high chairs are provided. There is no children’s menu, but staff are happy to provide smaller portions or adapt dishes to suit your tyke’s tastes. The kitchen will heat milk or baby food for you, and packed lunches can be provided.
Babysitting
The hotel can book a babysitter for €20 an hour; they need a week's notice ideally; not all sitters speak English, so please check.
No need to pack
Cots can be provided in rooms; if you have smaller children, booking a family apartment will mean you can store food in the fridge and warm up baby meals and milk without hassle.
