Suffice it to say we had quite a long and sometimes scary drive in the dark to get here, but man was it worth it. I write this from my cottage patio looking down on Zaros with a glass of good Greek wine and some cherries from this morning's market and have no desires. The property is wonderful, food is... More

I booked a 4D3N stay at Eleonas for my friend and I recently and enjoyed every moment. Eleonas is away from the hustle and bustle of the busier areas of Crete and most peaceful. The grounds are well kept and simply beautiful. With the sound of birds and smell of flowers and herbs around you, it is really heavenly. I... More

I am home now, a week after leaving Eleonas cottages. I really didn't want to leave and am still sad. The holiday was everything I could dream about. Beautiful stone cottage, surrounded by Honeysuckle,Jasmine, Olive trees, bees humming and birds singing. The mountain as backdrop. From the moment we arrived we knew it was going to be good. Attention to... More

So what a delight to find such high standards of comfort here with rooms as good as they look in the pictures -... More

One of the few places I would have ended up durng the Greek Orthodox Easter, but was convinced to take a short break and visit Zaros village and the surrounding area. There is a lot of water coming down the south side of the Psiloritis mountain, at the foot of which you will find Eleonas (Olive Grove) with 20 cottages... More
