Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is situated in a perfect location, just a few minutes away from shops and restaurants, offering lovely rooms with beautiful design and great service. However, the en-suite bathrooms didn't meet my expectations in terms of basic amenities.
Staying at Elements was a wonderful experience. The hotel boasts a beautiful design, with great service and a perfect location just a short walk away from shops and restaurants. The rooms were simple but comfortable, offering all the basics needed for a cozy stay.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of pros and cons. The rooms, despite feeling a bit tired for the price, were spacious, clean, and offered a great view of the ocean. The service was overall great, though a bit slow in responses. The location was excellent, close to shops and restaurants. However, the hotel lacked some dining options, and certain services required additional fees.
