A week at the Porto Elounda Resort was just the ticket after a miserable British winter/ spring. Travelled with Voyage Privé using EasyJet. Lovely welcome at the Elounda Resort - Eleni and her colleagues on reception are a credit to the hotel. As we stayed through the week we found that all the staff couldn't be more helpful. Well appointed... More

I wrote a review for this hotel when I stayed here last summer....but although it was on this site for a while it disappeared. .?? The staff here were superb, especially in the Spa where everything was just fantastic. I have never felt so cared for when receiving treatments. Sadly the hotel was really let down by the standard of... More

The hotel is located on the beach of Elounda, about 70 km from the airport of Heraklion. Distance to: Center Elounda - 2 km, Agios Nikolaos - 7 km. The first thing that catches your eye on the way to Elounda - a picturesque view of the Gulf of Mirabello. This is - an oasis of comfort and discreet luxury.... More

We spent 10 days in Crete in late September / early October, and we'll be going back every year! We usually don't go back to places once we've been there but I don't think we could ever tire of Crete. We loved the island and the hotel. The service is quite memorable. Everyone who works there is so very friendly.... More

This is our second time staying here and there is a reason we came back - you can't beat the location, views and access to the beach - plus, with two kids, having all these facilities is essential.Water slides,soccer camp,kids club,tennis courts and so on.Food was good and service both times was excellent.

Never been to Greece before We were extremely impressed with the unit, the cleanliness of the grounds,the specious rooms and bathrooms,the beach and most of all the crystal clear sea. View from the room is breathtaking. Crete is an amazing island - so much to see and do. Everyone has been very friendly! Would most definitely return.

We had a very welcome upgrade to a 2 bedroom villa with private pool, which was fantastic for our family...except this was october/november so the saltwater pool was too cold to use and the hike up the hill to breakfast got a bit tedious. If it hadn't have been for the upgrade I would have been hugely disappointed and would... More
