It would be good to split out the base costs from the elest.io cost in the pricing page. There's no point in forcing the user to calculate this.
For example for the micro option in digital ocean, the barebones droplet is $6/month. Your price is $16/month. If you showed this, I'd know I'm paying you $10 for the ease of use. If you don't show this, I have to calculate it. Unless your plans would be to offer your own hosting down the line - where it would make sense to have only a lump total cost, I don't see the advantage in keeping it hidden (specially since you're clearly open about showing how you're charging per CPU/RAM/disk here in the comments).
Cool product!

What makes you think these folks pay full price for a VM with their partners? What value do you get out of it now knowing that? It's similar to asking any business to disclose to you their costs. I would disregard this and keep your pricing as is. If users find value in the CPU / RAM + service at price point X, great.
