Our View
There's so much to impress you here. The imposing reception that
shouts 'Luxury'; the jaw-dropping views, with the deep blue sea and
sky meeting at the island of Spinalonga (setting for Victoria
Hislop's best-seller, 'The Island'); the calming white space of
your room. You'll love the spa too, rated the best in Greece and
simply unbelievable. But what really impressed us is that although
it's a large hotel, you never feel surrounded - probably because
it's all on a hillside rather than all in front of you. In fact we
were so impressed, we've chosen it as an Eden Favourite!
Hotel Description
Here, in the tiny fishing village of Plaka you can take in
astonishing views of the island of Spinalonga, Bay of Elounda and
the Mediterranean from your chic suite, villa, or bungalow. Each
one stylishly designed with contemporary décor, flawless finishing
touches and all the niceties modern travellers demand; built on two
floors the villas are utterly decadent, while the Royal Blue Villa
is the perfect place to live out that Onassis fantasy.
There is plenty to do, with indoor and outdoor pools and an
elevator taking guests down the cliffside to the beach. Five
restaurants serve a variety of cuisine, from fresh fish and Greek
salads to gourmet Mediterranean cooking, while The Elounda Spa
& Thalassotherapy provides a heavenly escape with the gentle
sound of waves helping to soothe and calm. Children are more than
catered for in the kids' club which offers supervised activities
such as theatrical play, fishing and Greek dancing, with children's
menus available in all restaurants.
