Everything was perfect!
We had a wonderful stay at Elounda Gulf Villas. The suite was luxurious, clean, and beautifully maintained. A special mention to the guys at the bar — their service was exceptional and truly made our experience unforgettable. Thank you for the amazing hospitality!

Facilities: basically complete. The air conditioner broke once.
Hygiene: Good condition. There are big bathrooms.
Environment: There are no tourists or businesses around, it is very quiet and empty. The exclusive beach is not in the hotel, you can find it at the front desk.
Service: It's okay, I get a response when I call.

The worst of the worst
The worst place I have been in my life.
The worst customer service
The all inclusive policies is a complete fraud
The rooms are destroyed without any maintenance
The pillows were old and disgusting
I have never been a place in a such terrible condition
We had to leave the place in the day after and go to another resorts

Magnifique découverte. Séjour parfait. Nous avons eu le droit a une chambre magnifique avec piscine à débordement et jacuzzi vue sur la mer. La residence est très calme et tout le personnel est adorable. Nous remercions Angela pour son chaleureux accueil et Louise pour ses précieuses recommandations. Au plaisir de revenir se faire chouchouter!…

This very special villa/suite hotel is like a corner of paradise. We had a villa with its own infinity pool, it was luxurious and very private. The facilities are great, with a main pool and comfortable sun beds. Everything is provided for the comfort of guests. The views are spectacular and the grounds well kept and attractive. Don’t worry about the hill, golf buggies are on hand to run you around. The breakfast is incredible, from smoke salmon to fabulous fruit platters, a huge range of bread and pastries and plenty of hot options; even do it yourself mimosas. The beach club is perfect with a minibus on hand to take you to and from the hotel. However, what really makes this place special is the staff. They cannot do enough for you and are exceptional. Elounda itself is utterly charming with a range of shops and fabulous restaurants. It is walkable (about 30 mins downhill) but get one of the very smart Mercedes taxis back - 11 euros. We were sad to leave and will definitely be going back!

Our stay at Elounda Gulf Villas was absolutely excellent. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel incredibly welcome with warm, personalized service. The suite was spotless, beautifully designed, and offered breathtaking views of the sea — the private pool was a true highlight!
Breakfast was delicious, with a great variety of fresh, local options. The location is perfect: peaceful and private, yet just a short drive from the center of Elounda and nearby beaches.
Everything was well-organized, from check-in to concierge support. We appreciated all the little details that made our stay so special. Highly recommended — we’ll definitely suggest this location and we will come back!
