Incredible experience and staff!
The incredible staff made you feel like a king. They assisted you in every way! The itinerary was great and seeing so many of the small Greek Islands was a plus that a large ship cannot go to port. The meals were excellent and whenever you had a question it was immediately answered by the 5 star ⭐️ crew! We were originally scheduled on a larger ship that week - the Celestyl that was cancelled due to the war and we are so happy we found this ship and this incredible experience instead! We will be back and recommend it to anyone who wants an intimate experience with an incredible staff!!!

Great small boat cruise.
The islands visited were all amazing. Each had a different vibe and we loved each one. The boat is older but was comfortable when the seas were calm. It rocked quite a lot when the winds and waves picked up. Staff was very friendly and took good care of us. The masseuse was incredible! We would have liked the cruise director to make announcements reminding us of what was happening. Overall it was a fantastic trip and made many new friends.

Overall lovely trip.
The boat is lovely, the crew very friendly and helpful, the food delicious and the islands beautiful. We did 3 optional tours one of which was a bit disappointing which we reported. The engine was noisy in the cabin but you got used to it and the smoke and soot from the chimney a bit disappointing from an eco point of view. Overall though we had a wonderful trip and would recommend to others.

Perfect week
Despite changing the route (we couldn't go to Naxos and Mykonos because of strong winds and went to Spetses and Hydra instead), we saw many beautiful islands. The ship, the crew, the fellow passengers, everything was perfect. We felt very comfortable and enjoyed the week very much. Since we were the only German-speaking ones on board, we were also able to improve our English.

So happy we chose the Elysium to see the Greek Islands.
Phenomenal scenery, swims at amazing beaches, yummy food! Pilates and Thai chi walking, hot tub under the stars and lights from the Islands. Great new friendships! Highly recommend if you don’t like cruising with the big ships and being hurdled on and off like cattle. We loved the quite islands best but loved the scenery from every island.

Visiting the Greek Islands: My Five‑Star Elysium Experience
Sailing through the Greek Islands aboard the Elysium was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we stepped on board, we felt welcomed, cared for, and genuinely connected to the experience in a way that most cruises never quite achieve. A true advantage of a smaller ship. What stood out immediately was the staff. Every single person on the Elysium team made the trip feel personal and heartfelt. They weren’t just providing service—they were creating an atmosphere of warmth, joy, and ease. Their kindness elevated every moment. We want to praise the entire team, but a special thank you to Mark, the Captain, John, Eva, Miguel, and the amazing bartender and serving staff. What a team! The destinations were breathtaking. Each island had its own magic—crystal‑clear waters, charming villages, ancient history, and the food at each location was incredible. You truly experienced the islands without the crowds of the huge cruise ships. Waking up each day to a new horizon was a gift I’ll never forget. And then there were the people. Meeting fellow travelers from around the world became one of the highlights of the journey. Conversations over meals, shared excursions, laughter on deck—it all added a layer of richness that made the trip feel like a floating community. In every way, this was a five‑star vacation. The Elysium isn’t just a cruise ship; it’s an experience that stays with you long after you’ve returned to shore. We left feeling grateful, inspired, and already dreaming about the next time we can sail with them again. A heartfelt thank you to the entire team from Sal and Kelli.

Best small ship cruise of the Greek islands.
This was everything I'd hoped for my first (and definitely not my last) trip to Greece. Multiple options to be with people, be alone, explore, do activities, relax - truly whatever you felt like doing. The ship and hospitality crews were top-notch. Special shout-outs to Mark, Eva, and George for directing a fantastic cruise. I hope and plan to do it again!

Five Star Experience!
If you like boats, you will love the Elysium. Décor is tasteful, systems are ship shape, and the boat is solid in weather. Plus it has a bar, and a beautiful bartender. We experienced Meltemi winds (Google that) causing a change in our agenda from the Cyclades to the Ionian islands. We didn't mind the change at all because every day brought the unexpected, finishing up with a passage through the Corinth Canal. This was a couples trip, a 40th anniversary. My wife does not dive, and I spend a lot time on dive liveaboards without her. So the Elysium was a great way for us to share that small-boat, time-on the-sea-experience. We both loved it, 5 stars, thank you.

One of the best vacations and cruises ever!
Our experience with this smaller cruise changed what we look for in a cruise vacation. What makes this cruise so different and memorable is the perfect size of the boat that leads to the great connection you make with the other guests, and the absolutely fantastic crew. My wife and I have been on several cruises, and are well traveled. This cruise has been our most memorable and enjoyable. We typically write short reviews, but our experience on this cruise was so extraordinary, that we felt we should share greater detail. Why does the size of the boat matter so much? First, this boat can harbor in places that larger cruise ships cannot. This means that you can see smaller, more quaint and less crowded places, as well as those that are frequented by larger boats. Roughly half of our stops were in secluded bays where were the only people, or small harbor towns where there were few tourists. This totally changes the vibe, the pace, and the tenor of the vacation. We also got to see the larger ports where the larger boats stopped- so you don’t feel like you are missing anything- just getting the added benefits of the smaller boat vacation. Even at the larger ports, our schedule was just different enough that we avoided much of the crowds. Contrast this to any stop when on a boat with 3000 or 4000 people, all getting off and on at roughly the same time. Its math. On a big boat, you are always dealing with crowds. So that is all pretty obvious, but what we didn’t expect is what turned out to be the win. On a smaller boat you get to know everyone. On a large boat, maybe you have a good conversation with someone, and never see them again. Not so here. You meet people the first night at the bar, and hang with them if you choose the rest of the week. Another win- under fifty guests and two dozen crew members. The crew and guests have a connection like no other cruise and no other vacation. They know you, and it shows in their attention to guests and the service they provide. The crew was happy, friendly, had time to get to know the guests, and truly enjoyed making an unforgettable experience. The crew was a wonderful eclectic mix of fun, interesting, skilled professionals. In many ways the crew turned out to the best part of the cruise. The chef was top notch, with each meal better than the last. You did not have multiple restaurant choices like a larger ship, but each night the chef provided a different unique and excellent menu. Food quality was better than other cruises we have been on. The bartender was skilled, charming, and fun. She had great unique cocktails of her own creation, and we didn’t find a drink she couldn’t make well. The other outstanding crew member was the concierge. Like a concierge should, he had tremendous knowledge of all the places we were stopping, good restaurant and excursion recommendations. We had some excursions (not booked through the boat) that fell through. The concierge spent what seemed like an entire afternoon working on booking us a winery tour/tasting at exactly the time we needed it. It was great and one of the highlights of the trip. Probably called in some favors. We will definitely choose similar cruises again, and would love to book with this specific boat and crew again.
