Fantastic holiday
Myself and my partner stayed at this hotel in early July and absolutely loved it. We have been coming to Elounda for a number of years but never stayed here. It will be our only choice from now on! Although the rooms aren't large (which we knew before we travelled) they were modern, immaculate and have everything you need. We had bed and breakfast and there was a very good choice of food which was replenished constantly. The Sky bar is lovely too either in the afternoon or evening with fabulous views. However, I must say the thing we loved the most was how fantastic all the staff are. Every one of them was more than helpful, constantly cheerful and able to have a chat - they are an absolute credit to the hotel. We have already booked for next year!
1st class
We are currently staying here, it really is fantastic. The staff are extremely professional and very friendly, the food is exellent, a full choice of continental, full english, or cereal fruits yogurts for the health concious, the hotel itself is spotlessly clean as is our room (cleaned daily) no need to ramble on there are no negatives here, if you dont stay here you've missed out. This is a 5 star experience and the best of Cretan hospitality.

Fabulous
Looking at recent reviews we had the same room as a recent reviewer complaining about the view! Sitting on the balcony the view is beautiful, their review is deceptive as it's when stood up. The hotel can't control the messy yard from the restaurant next door. The hotel is modern, clean and well equipped. The people working there are all very helpful and friendly, a special shout out the the breakfast team (sorry no names), the man on reception with glasses when we arrived late at night, the cleaners, Harri and Gabrielle in the bar and Kleo who never stops smiling!
Our room was modern and clean and a very comfortable bed. Towels changed daily, and bedding every other day.
Breakfast has to be the best we've ever had, everything from fresh fruit, yoghurt, toast, cakes, tiny desserts, cooked meat, cheeses, cooked breakfast etc and an amazing freshly squeezed orange machine.
There is a small stoney beach with around 20 beds but you will need to be up early to get a bed,the rooftop pool is nice but again only has 16 beds. If you like a lie in then you will need to go to the main beach one of the nearby bars. There are signs stating beds are not to be reserved but this was not actioned. Often there were beds with towrls on left empty for hours.

Would highly recommend staying here. We upgraded to a superior room, 100% worth the extra fee.
Fabulous Hotel, great value for money, very friendly & helpful staff. Ideal situation.
Great location
Lovely hotel, friendly staff. The room was huge with a great balcony with mountain and sea views. We stayed half board, Breakfast was very good with lots of variety and homemade breads. Evening meals all A la carte. Fish based restaurant with a good variety. We only ate there 3 nights as we wanted a more greek feel to the restaurant. Sky bar and the roof top pool was lovely and had sunbeds free each time. The small beach area at the front was always taken and unfortunately the 30 minute rule was not policed by anyone. Great location on the edge of town with easy walking to all other bars and restaurants
