Elounda Living Residences by Ghh

"Elounda vista was the best choice for our family vacation. The villa was so clean and tidy that it felt just like home but better. The welcoming decorations were absolutely delightful. All the facilities were very clean. The view from the rooms and pool was breathtaking. The manager of the hotel Soulema was a special bonus to our stay. Always helpful and super friendly. Thank you for the great holidays. We will definitely be back. "

Porto Elounda Golf & Spa Resort, Six Senses Spa

"A very good stay overall in a beautiful, quiet setting right on the water. It's a high-end resort and fairly secluded, which made it relaxing, but keep that in mind if you'd rather be close to restaurants and town. The food was the weak spot. It was fine but not great, and I expected a bit more given the price. Comfortable, well kept, and worth it if you're after quiet luxury and don't mind being a little out of the way."

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

"We have stayed at Elounda Beach on a number of occasions in recent years and each of those visits has been wonderful. Our most recent stay, in late September, was equally great. As on earlier trips we booked on a half board basis, for nine nights on this occasion, for a specific villa, through the Guest Loyalty arrangements, and enjoyed all the benefits that brings – airport transfers, guaranteed accommodation of our choosing, discounts on extras such as drinks, access to all four of the super restaurants and so on. The whole arrangement from our arrival at Herakion Airport to our return there at the end of the visit worked so smoothly and made our stay perfect. It was faultless! Of course, the resort is in a unique setting with its own private beaches but the biggest advantage that guests enjoy is the high quality of the staff, from Reception to staff at the restaurants and bars, those responsible for housekeeping, the gardening team and many others working behind the scenes. Without exception they are friendly, helpful and a joy to deal with. They are a great credit to Elounda Beach Hotel. It would be difficult to name all those we were in contact with, but it is worth mentioning the stand-out service we received from Lia Prenza the Guest Loyalty Manager and her assistant Vasssia Kalampaliki who went above and beyond to ensure our stay was so good. Equally, the lovely Maria and Johanna in the Guest Experience team at Reception who happily arranged restaurant reservations and offered advice on a range of topics. Also, a mention for Babis the excellent sommelier who provided us with help and advice on our wine selections at each of the restaurants. Taken together this was an excellent holiday. Wonderful restaurants, superbly well-maintained accommodation, a lovely site and even the good weather played its part! We will return in 2026."

Aristea Hotel

"We stayed at Hotel Aristea in Elounda in June and had a really enjoyable and relaxing break overall. We booked a sea view room and it was absolutely worth it. The view across the bay each morning was stunning — sitting on the balcony watching the boats and the calm water was one of the highlights of our stay. The room itself was basic but clean and well maintained, however there was no tea making facilities, which fortunately didn't bother us. The only downside for us was the mattress, which we found a little uncomfortable. However, when we mentioned this to reception, they were very helpful and promptly provided extra bedding to make it more comfortable, which we really appreciated. It’s always reassuring when staff respond positively and try to resolve any issues quickly. Breakfast was simple but fresh and tasty. There was only a small selection to choose from but the quality of the food was good. With a little more attention to presentation it could feel more special, but it certainly set us up well for the day. The location is where this hotel truly shines. It is perfectly positioned right on the waterfront, with restaurants, cafés and shops literally on the doorstep. This was particularly important for my mother who struggles with walking, as we didn’t need taxis or long strolls — everything was within a few steps, which made the whole holiday much more relaxed and accessible for her. Overall, Hotel Aristea offers excellent value in a beautiful setting. With its unbeatable location, stunning sea views and helpful staff, we had a lovely stay and would happily return to Elounda again."

Elounda Eleon Villas

"A new experience for me booking a package with EasyJet but no need to be concerned. A few days before arrival I made contact with Maria, I had decided to make my own transfer and had a little issue with mobility after hip surgery but nothing too much trouble, she was a star, communication was simple and she took away any worries I might have had. I won’t repeat many previous reviews as it’s clear that the suites are wonderful and lack for nothing, what will take your breath away are the views! Often you’ll be promised a sea view, trust me this accommodation delivers and then some. I’m reluctantly giving this top score, not because it doesn’t deserve it, for it most definitely does, but because I think this will make it harder for me to come back here once everyone else realises how good it is. ❤️"

Elounda Olea Villas and Apartments

"An amazing choice for every type of traveler! Upon our arrival we had a warm welcome from the owner and a very thoughtful basket with goodies for our stay. The villas are beautiful, the beds have lovely mattresses and there is a swimming pool to relax if you choose not to visit a beach for the day. Angeliki greeted us with lots of info on the area and suggestions for tours and meals. A home away from home with a touch of luxury."

Petra Elounda Suites - Adults Only

"Beautifully designed apartment in a wonderful location. Lots of thought went into the design of this place. Great location too. Waking up to the sun rising over the island with the waves lapping was magical!"

Elounda George Studios

"I had the best time staying at George Studios, it was very clean, perfect location, room is a good size with a small kitchen which has everything you need and bathroom. It’s a 5 minute walk into the village which is perfect, and a little shop called Euromarket one minute walk away which stays open till midnight! The family who own it are all lovely, and any problems I had was sorted very quickly and was no problem at all. Thankyou again! If I come back to Elounda I will definitely stay here again. :)"
