Elounda Beach Hotel & Villas, a Member of the Leading Hotels of the World

We have just returned from a week at this hotel. From the moment we arrived we weee made to feel welcomed. The staff are all so friendly, polite & above all professional. They obviously take pride in their work. Our room was in the spa building and had a fantastic sea view. Although the rooms are perhaps a little dated for some they are spotlessly clean and the furnishings are of good quality. Our room was cleaned twice daily. The towels & linens were very good. It was lovely to have a bottle of wine & fresh fruit on arrival. We were booked in on a bed & breakfast basis. Breaksfast is of good quality and there is plenty to suit all tastes/dietary requirements. Again the staff were all excellent. The pool area was spotlessly clean and there are plenty of comfortable sun beds.A special mention must go to Georgia who brought drinks/snacks to us when we were poolside. She is a star… nothing was too much trouble and it really was service with a smile. The location of the hotel is simply stunning, the gardens are well cared for and so beautiful. The private beach is lovely and we definitely recommend the beach side bar. We did not use the restaurants on site for evening meals but we were assured by other guests that all of them are excellent. We were in Elounda last September at the Elounda Palace and this time wanted to sample the local cuisine in the town. There are ample places to eat and we had some of the best fish we’ve ever tasted. The customer experience team were most helpful during our stay and booked taxis for us into Elounda & Plaka. A special thanks to Joanna from the team who was most helpful and also for arranging a later checkout for us. We want to thank the whole Elounda Beach team for making our stay with you so special. We had the best, comfortable and totally relaxing holiday! Front start to finish it was fabulous xx

Lovely hotel with very friendly and helpful staff. Brilliant facilities and fantastic menus in all the restaurants. Lovely sandy beach with plenty of loungers.Beautiful views all round the hotel complex. Would definitely recommend this hotel for couples and families.

This is the most amazing property on a magnificent beach. Large rooms, beautiful surroundings and proximity. The breakfast was very good. Cleanliness was impeccable. However, it is the staff that make the resort a five star. The staff especially the front desk were not attentive and plain ignorant. I came back from an excursion feeling extremely over heated. I came to the front desk and requested a bottle of water and a bucket of ice to the room. After waiting in the room for over half hour I left and headed to the store on property to purchase water and ice. Upon my return, I discovered ice but no water in the room. Extremely disappointing service.

I've travelled to some incredible places in my life, but very few have come close to my recent trip and stay at this beautiful hotel in Elounda. I could write a book not a review. The staff were amazing, incredibly attentive, polite, helpful and professional. From the moment we arrived they could not do enought for us. For example, we found the mattress too hard, this was not a problem, they immediately fitted a topper. On arrival, we were upgraded to a deluxe room with steam room and Jacuzzi bath and more floor space. The room was beautiful, perhaps a little dated, buy this only added to the appeal. The hotal has a few shops (including high end jewellery store) and a great range of restaurants, including tradtional Greek style Taverna, Italian and fine dining options. You basically do noy need to leave the resort. There is a choice of 2 beaches. The larger of the 2 has a nice bar, next the watersports area. This aerves snacks and drinks during the day. Make sure you see the guys who work the beach on your first day. The beds they select (ones that are free/available) are the ones you keep for your entire holiday. Whether you lay on the beach or not. So there is no rush to put your towel on a bed, so you can relax during your breakfast. We stayed B&B only, and boy the breakfasts are good. Great selection for all tastes and diets. Breafast staff like all others at the hotel are amazing. There is so much more I could say but I do not want to spoil it too much for you. You must go and see for your selves. We liked it so much we have re booked already for this October. Thank you so much Theodora and to the rest of the team at Elounda Hotel and Beach Resort. Outstanding hotel, outstanding staff and outstanding holiday. Thank you so much and see you again soon. Dean and Samantha

Absolutely amazing stay at Elounda Beach Hotel & Villas! The spacious villas with private pools are a dream come true – modern luxury meets natural beauty. We also loved the endless options for activities and relaxation: from water sports to spa treatments, there’s something for everyone. A big thank you to the fantastic team who made our stay so memorable.

From the moment we arrived, we were genuinely impressed by the outstanding service and warmth of everyone at the hotel. The entire team — from the friendly reception staff to the attentive restaurant crew and housekeeping — made us feel not only welcome but truly cared for throughout our stay. What stood out most was the proactive attitude of the staff. They didn’t just wait for guests to ask for something; they regularly checked in with us to see if anything was needed, always with a smile and a sincere willingness to help. It’s clear that guest comfort and satisfaction are their top priorities. A special thank goes to Lia and her team, whose dedication, professionalism, and personal touch elevated our experience even further. Their attention to detail and genuine kindness created a warm, inviting atmosphere that we won’t soon forget. Highly recommended for anyone looking for more than just a place to stay — this is true hospitality at its best.
