We stayed at the Elysium in March and it was fabulous!!!!! We had a beautiful and comfortable 2-bedroom suite, walking distance to the beach, unbelievably friendly staff and owners, and two clothing optional pools, a really great whirlpool. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect vacation experience. The owners, Gary and Steve, were wonderful. We plan on returning on... More

I have been staying at Elysium Resort many times in the past years and also other places as well. For the money you spend, Elysium Resort is one of the top places in the "not-so-expensive" catagory. The place has awesome layout with two pools, a hot tub, large roof deck and plenty of places to sit around to either socialize... More

My husband and I recently spent 5 nights here. He had been several times before; it was my first visit. We got a good rate on a very spacious studio--bigger than some apartments I've lived in, no joke! The resort has plenty of places to hang out--2 pools, hot tub, and rooftop sun deck. The whole place is very clean... More

I have been going to the Elysium for a few years now and always find it fun and relaxing. The staff and owners go out of their way to make you feel comfortable and welcome! The Elysium always has a nice mixed crowd and I have a great time when visiting! It is always clean and a good bargain! Not... More

Cant say much about this place except its rather disappointing. Beds and pillows really uncomfortable as we're the loungers. Rooms large and clean but very drab and in need of updating. Latino staff really lovely but others not so. Wifi does not work in many areas of room let alone in other parts of the hotel. Pool and gardens nice... More

Being the Largest Gay Owned Clothing Optional Resort we continue to strive to deliver a great product at a reasonable price. While we are sorry that this guest was not happy I am sure that this review was from someone that did not stay here. All of our beds are new and we get nothing but rave reviews on how... More

Best features: super, well-kept tropical landscaping, two clean, reasonably sized pools comfortably warm (guessing 86 - 88), a huge, clean, semi-secluded whirlpool, convenient location to the beach, and friendly, helpful front office. We had a studio with two queen beds, which is one reason we book here because rooms with two beds are hard to find at most small resorts... More

We rented a unit (Unit 201) at the Elysium Resort for 3 months (January 1, 2012 to March 31, 2012) which was outside the gated resort (in the parking area) at the corner of N. Birch Road and Windamar Street. It was a one bedroom, galley kitchen and living/dining room. We had cleaning every third day. The negatives about the... More

I personally don't understand all the poor reviews. We have just completed our 5th visit and plan on coming back. Our room was cleaned everyday, and if we needed something it was taken care of, right on the spot. The entire staff is great and very friendly. Everyday I was always greeted in passing. Fabricio is amazing, quick with a... More
