Review of Ellery Beach House – by Marcus C.

Booked their opening offer and included spa, dinner, breakfast and deluxe rooms.
Starts with the room which is really nice with cozy décor. Sick big bed, "kill guessing" that it is at least 2 m wide. A little cold roof that is only polished concrete but belongs to the style. It is noticeable that everything is new and there are some tiles missing in the ceiling, masking tape remains in some places and everything is not screwed. It belongs to a newly opened place!
After we had left our bags in the room we went to the spa. This is located on the right down the stairs next to the reception named Coco Beach house. Sizzling name! Once there, you are welcomed in a spa reception and given towels and a small tour. Very service-minded staff in the spa! There are 4 swimming pools and 2 saunas. A dip in all the pools was, also quickly in and quickly out of the sea down by the pier. The sauna down by the jetty was not open.
The outdoor pool adjacent to the sauna is a bit secluded and not everyone seemed to discover this pool. That's where we spent the most time! Also the indoor pool is cozy but there was a lot of people. How that haver, sick cozy "oases" where you really relax.
Due to probably the hotel's last dinner time (21:30) we drove some snacks and drinks in the poolside bar. Sweet potato fries with Majo. Sounds very good and was incredibly scrumptious! Possibly a little strange solution to run mayon on the fries from the beginning..
In the end, the clock was around 9 pm and the hands were proper raisins after 4h of splashing in pools and marathon sauna sessions. Then it was time for dinner! I was damn hungry and told you early that we'd be happy to get the food in as soon as possible. Unfortunately, this information seemed to escape everyone and after 30 minutes they take the order for drinks. If this hadn't been prepaid, I would probably have left the restaurant at this stage. Rescued by an incredibly nice kid who took our order and picked up pita bread with dip immediately. I guess he saw my hungry look right!
The appetizer was a burrata with pickled tomatoes? Unsure of this but it was not very good. Not at all fresh and soft as I want it! In addition, it was quite strong which was not at all a pleasant surprise.
For the main course, I was clumsy enough to try to order something other than grilled cabbage. Because who really wants to eat grilled cabbage as the only vegetarian dish?
Of course, we also ordered it stupidly enough and in we got as special grilled Jerusalem artichoke with about the same accessories. It was good but a bit too earthy and my company unfortunately had to spit out a bit because of just this. When you notice that it is bitter and stale then it feels no good! Grilled cabbage was exactly as dull as it sounds. The reason why it was sick stupid to order a special was because the food came after 1h..
So now it's north of 11 pm and we just want to go to bed really. Then the dessert comes in. Chocolate cake with ice cream and crunch and yogurt sorbet. The chocolate dessert was terrible good but the yogurt was like the frozen man throwing together a stressful Tuesday morning at home!
In conclusion, the service was damn mixed and mostly stressed. Staff in a hurry in the restaurant contribute to a rather dull environment. I guess they need a few months as the run-in period so everything sits better. Overall, everyone wanted well but everything took far too long. Stockholm has set a certain standard and unfortunately we felt that they did not achieve this.
Back in the room I passed out right away and slept amazingly. Their beds seemed to many consider good when it was heard during breakfast that many slept well. Regarding breakfast, it is hardly worth a review for fyfan what it was. Everything was cold or exhausted and tasted nothing. Since we only eat the vegetarian, I dare not speak about the meat, but the scrambled eggs were at room temperature. American pancakes looked like flat falukorv someone sat on for 2 h. Disastrously bad. Tasteless and just chaos was the breakfast. There is no clear way to pick the food so the queue was formed.
We therefore walked away from breakfast quite quickly and went to the spa again. Absolutely amazing to have almost the whole spa to ourselves throughout the morning.
In conclusion, we think that the service and spa was fantastic and really a serious challenger to Yasuragi. Food-wise it was very bad and the only memory of taste and experience was sweet potato fries at the bar. We will be happy to return in a few months to hope to experience a more complete stay. I feel great potential instead and it breathes development opportunities. Really think you should go there and try! This is going to be a strong four or five after visit number 2. Gold star for you fighters who could read all the way. Have them good!
