“A perfect holiday”

What a great hotel, we had the most perfect holiday. From the moment of arrival when you are warmly greeted (at 11pm) with a cold refreshing drink to check out 7 days later the staff could not have been better. The suite was just lovely the bed was super comfy and the bathroom had all you needed and more. Breakfast was an amazing choice and the orange juice was freshly squeezed. The beach club was the most relaxing beach I've ever experienced so peaceful and George could not have been anymore attentive, fresh beach towels and mineral water on ice provided the moment you arrived.

Heaven on earth! This place is very very special. We booked last minute and got a fabulous offer which included a private airport transfer and half board. We were met by someone to help us with our luggage, then a very nice car was waiting to take us to the hotel. Upon arrival we had a delicious lemon drink to welcome us, and the lovely ladies at reception were incredibly helpful and friendly. Our room had its own pool, which was just stunning!! I was pinching myself when I saw the breathtaking views. But also, we had so many small home comforts, quality sunbed loungers, towels for the pool, a very comfortable bed (very important) and daily housekeeping that were so attentive (we had little flowers left everywhere in the room one day) The hotel staff cannot do enough to help, we had some dietary issues and they took great care to ensure that my husband had anything he needed. Breakfast was so amazing we had all kinds of eggs, smoked salmon, Greek pastries, (mini donuts to die for and the Bougatsa cream pastry was incredible) Greek yoghurt, fresh fruit and Prosecco daily. Staff made me lovely lattes too. Dinners by the pool were delicious (the soufflé was outstanding) They also had a Greek buffet night that was good. Thank you to Sophia, Dimitri, George, (both of them!) Janis, Vassilli, Nectaria, Micheal and Manos. The beach staff were equally helpful and it was a great place to go to if we wanted a change of scene. No fighting for sunbeds, or paying for them - just arrive (by a lovely driver in the minivan) and everything was there including bottled water. Big George was there to bring you all you need! Excellent food and drinks too. Tip - Just bring your own beach shoes as there are some rocks on the sea bed. Elounda Gulf is the perfect place to rest, recharge, enjoy the stunning views and beautiful peace and quiet. We will never forget this trip. Thank you so much.

We visited in September as the first stop of our honeymoon and immediately felt at peace and relaxed by the team at the front desk when we checked in. They were amazingly friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The accommodations were luxurious, with the private infinity pool & glass ceilinged shower being the highlights. We enjoyed breakfast daily and lazed by the refreshing salt water pool at the hotel. Whilst the property is not built on a beach, it was very easy to get shuttled there and enjoy the day beds with the warm water and amazing food available at the restaurant there. Located a quick 3 minute drive, or 15 minute walk to the town of Elounda, the location was ideal. Private, yet close enough to the nearby town or 10 minutes from the larger town of Agios Nikolas.

Absolutely amazing! Stunning views and a beautifully appointed villa (complete with an olive tree right outside the door)! Thoughtful touches everywhere made it feel like a luxurious and welcoming escape. What really made this experience stand out, though, was the people. Maria, Louisa and Angela were so warm and welcoming. From arranging rides into the charming town, to recommending some of the best local dining, even to organizing a fantastic sailing trip, they went above and beyond to make sure every detail was perfect. And the thoughtfulness didn’t stop there—they arranged breakfast in my villa (since I had an early departure), and even sent me off with delicious candies that I’m now officially obsessed with! And I can’t forget to mention the amazing massage by Visiliki. She was so kind, knowledgeable, and highly skilled – it was one of the best massages I’ve ever had. From the breathtaking views to the impeccable service, it was unforgettable, and I’m already counting down the days until I can return!
