We had a great time while at Elita hotel. The room was spacious and comfortable. We loved the kitchenette and the shower. The addition of an armchair will complement the room as we had to always lay on the bed to watch TV. Of course, it goes without saying that the location was perfect, a short walk to the beach.

Never got into our room as there was no one available to check us in at 4pm. Left plenty of messages and sent emails. They left us stranded and we were forced to seek alternative accommodations. Will never book with them again!

I loved this property, it was super close to the beach, literally walking distance. I love they have the convenience of self check in especially since our flight got in late. The rooms were really nice and clean, and had a little kitchen in it. We will definitely be back.

We had a nice stay at Elita Hotel . . . We would stay there again. Like others say, you can hear others in the adjoining room. The snoring person next to us was rough . . . And we did ask the cleaners for shampoo, but it is more important for them to go into a meeting than get us what we asked for and then we never got it. HOWEVER, the hotel is in a nice location within walking distance to the beach. There is a bike sharing station across the street that made it so we didn't have to drive anywhere and the hotel itself is in good condition with a nice little pool and sunning area. Even with the minor inconveniences of hearing our neighbors and such, we give it a full 5 stars. Thank you Elita for a nice stay.

Looking forward to returning

The second half of our stay was in a deluxe room. We enjoyed having the kitchenette space for breakfast and the big mirror and more space in the bathroom was excellent. Air conditioning worked nicely, and the grounds are lovely. Compared to their sister property just down the street, this property looked like a level up and was quieter because it was not on a main road. Due to a late flight, I was able to get a slightly later check out and they stored my luggage for the afternoon. I was also able to access the pool area and towels until I was ready to leave. The staff was helpful and I look forward to returning to this property again.

We will stay again

A cute boutique hotel with helpful staff, a good sized pool, comfortable rooms and beds. Excellent walking proximity to the beach and many restaurant options, and a short drive from the cruise terminals and FLL airport. The only improvement we could recommend would be adding a mirror in the room, since the only one was in the washroom, which is not enough when 2 people are getting ready. That said, we enjoyed our stay and look forward to the next one.
