We stayed for a week in the Elounda Bay Palace, and it was really great. Not only is it in a beautiful location, but the grounds are well maintained - and you have a choice between an indoor pool, an outdoor salt-water pool and going down to the beach. Needless to say we spent our days loungin out near the... more

We have just returned from a wonderful 10 day holiday at the Elounda Bay Palace. The hotel is in a beautiful setting with lovely landscaped gardens and directly on its own private and peaceful sandy beach. Although we had hired a car to see more of the island, we always came back to the hotel beach afterwards as it was... more

It seems that A.Papandreou, during his many and long summer visits in Elounta, manage to leave behind some of his “know-how” to the staff of Elounta Bay, right before he died. When A.Papandreou’s and his government were verbally accused of stealing money from the state, they never apologized, they continue stealing and they made fun of all Greek citizens for... more

With the price comes an expectation for quality. That falls well short of the expectations. The rooms are pleasant but really nothing special and the service is extremely slow and with a touch of annoyance on everones face as if they are doing you a favour. They often forget what you asked them for and 20 minutes later after you... more

We just got back from a four nights stay at the Elounda Bay Palace. I must say that we were afraid to be disappointed, since our original destination of travel was Thailand...but Elounda Bay Palace was a total surprise to the best. The hotel is realy beautiful, probably the most beautiful we've ever been to, the staff is exceptionaly friendly... more

We spent ten pleasant days here in June, having stayed in its more luxurious sister hotel , the Elounda Beach, on an earlier trip. We chose the Bay because the rates in the Beach had escalated alarmingly, making it suitable only for Russian plutocrats and recipients of huge city bonuses! Both hotels are in an incomparable natural setting but whereas... more

Returning to Elounda Bay Palace after 6 years we wondered if the hotel would still be as good. We need not have worried. The hotel is one of the best we have stayed in. The staff are all extremely friendly and very helpful. We had a side sea view room which was excellent. Maid service twice a day. We were... more

Upon arrival at the hoel we were meant at the front gate and escorted in by a lovely girl from guest services. The room was slightly dated (side sea view) however it was clean and perfectly habitable for a week stay. The complex itself is lovely, clean and the facilities are excellent. We used the place as a holiday to... more

The hotel and grounds are wonderful, however it is all a bit dated. When we arrived we were escourted by a young Russian girl, with almost passable english to our room. While it was the class of room (seaview) we paid for in theroy, the view was of the roof, then the pipes then the sea. We went back down... more

We stayed here for 2 weeks in a side sea view superior room which was lovely but slightly dated. The beach i must say was lovely and the pool was nice, however towards the end of our stay (mid august) it became very busy and was difficult to find a sun bed. Nice family hotel with good sporting facilities (tennis... more
