Hotels with sea view in Elounda

You might have to come out early and reserve seats

This was my fifth visit to the Blue Palace and my first under the new regime - Phaea. The service was over the top incredible. The concierge is perhaps the best and most responsive team I’ve ever dealt with

We didn't know the previous version of this hotel to compare to but we loved the "new" version, with all the thoughtful gestures towards sustainability and efforts to integrate with Cretan culture & foods, etc - whilst still maintaining the quality and personalised service you expect from a 5-star place

Yes, it's a smaller "boutique" property and OK, it hasn't got 18 restaurants and 6 pools and golf course and helipad and watersports centre with giant slide - blah-blah-blah - but that doesn't mean that the experience is any less luxurious

The property is much smaller since they are renovating the entire other side. Only suggestion is to update the beach chairs and accommodations and the pool needs more sun umbrellas for shade

If anything, the smaller size means you feel like the staff really treat you as individuals (even friends!) rather than just another dollar sign with a room number attached

Comfortable, well equipped, and perfectly clean. The sea view was fantastic, overlooking the swiming pool and the coast. Our room was in a good state of renovation

Booked last minute ,full board weeks' stay. Statement not criticism,there are steps n slopes everywhere some very steep to pools n beach. Can only highly recommend location accommodation,food n service

Comfortable, spacious, quiet, pretty garden, nice landscape, everything clean, delicious and varied food, very friendly and helpful staff, good Wifi, wide choice of TV channels

What a beautiful hotel! Adults only, perfect to rest and for fun, activities, pools, great food, especially the buffet. The only thing I thought can be improved is that the sea can be a little bit more clean

The (artificial) sand beach is quite small, but was enough for the number of guests at the time. Terraces with comfortable sun loungers next to the beach. I had a bungalow with sea view

I appreciate that a good choice of local greek and crete specialities is available in addition to the usual things one gets everywhere. A range of dishes are freshly cooked all the time, some in live cooking

From room you can have a beautiful view of the sea, you can see the sunrise, you can see the mountains. Room setting is also very cute, daily cleaning. The workers are also very nice and friendly

They have a tennis court, spa and the transportation in the resort is done by golf carts which arrive quickly. All the stuff is very gentle, ready to help you and bringing you whatever you need

The service in this hotel is amazing! They take care of your needs. All our requests were accomplished fast. The cleanliness of the room was great. The gym is pretty well equipped

Minor comment the room is small and towards the unmodernsied - bathroom is not comfortable to use as the water goes everywhere and closets are dysfunctional

This was one of the best hotels we’ve ever stayed in. Locating and views impressive, service from the staff impeccable and food amazing

A well kitted out gym, pool, three restaurants, tennis court, and carts to transport you around. We’d love to stay again sometime

Made with lovely cucumber, olives, tomatoes and a chunks of feta cheese to give you a tasty Mediterranean flavored dish. The place is well maintained with clean infinity pool and lovely sea facing rooms

Breakfasts include dishes for every taste including the national cuisine. The beaches are sandy with comfortable entrance to the sea. The hotel has a well-developed infrastructure

Serene, extravaganza, calmness and tranquility of the place will mesmerize you and keep you nostalgic after you leave. This resort is located on northeast coast of Crete island

Everything was perfect The price is big, but totally worth it. The renovated rooms are really pricey but totally worth it , if you stay in the renovated rooms you can go to this really nice beach (there are two beaches)

Very cozy place! The rooms are spacious with huge balconies (there is a place for sun beds and table with chairs). Gorgeous views of the surrounding nature. Interior design at the highest level

Knowing about Greek culture, the behaviour of the staff, their service with love and the food here are to die for. I still remember the Choriatiki which is a must try with almost every meal

A beautiful hotel in a fantastic location with a sea and mountain view. The food was delicious with plenty of choice and our 2 year old son loved playing in the pools

My son wanted to play in the water with the others several times and asked, but for some reason he was not invited. But fortunately, he didn't get bitter, so there was no problem and we didn't take the matter to heart

We knew they had salt water in them, so we arrived prepared with goggles so it wasn't confusing. I was rather happy for that, because that way I didn't have to worry about normal water causing problems

We were in room 118 and its location is really steep, but it was only difficult to get up the first two days, after that we walked up or took a taxi without any problems

Unfortunately, one of the slides injured my son's back, but after that he paid attention to only sliding on it while sitting down and it was no longer a problem

We really liked the lady in the shop (unfortunately, I don't know her name), she is always kind and smiling. My kids really enjoyed the slides and pools

The hotel is very good and the service excellent. It's located in a lovely bay and the sea swimming is excellent. The food is good and there is a good choice alongside varied menus

We moved rooms - the sea view room we were supposed to have was obscured by palm trees - and the staff were excellent in finding an alternative - which was lovely

There is an indoor swimming pool and gym right near the beach. The only downside for us was that it was just over an hour away from the airport costing around 100euro

Perfect for families and couples. From getting us at each meal go ask which table we prefer, to towel and drinks service on the beach, to the clean rooms

Everything you would expect from a 5star hotel. The staff were very attentive and polite, the rooms were clean and modern with stunning views all around

This complex is very big however getting around to the different restaurants and bars was easy on the buggy’s. The spa facilities were 10/10 with a wide choice of treatments

the staff was very friendly! the privet pool had very cold water colder then the sea, with salty seawater, the restaurants prices were high with a bit of a pretentious vibe

5 star hote! Private beach with 5 min walking (transfer can be arranged) Helpful staff Many sport and spa activities (highly priced) Car is necessary due to its distance from closest towns (15min to Agios and 5 to Elounda) Walking to Elounda about 30min Good restaurant and bar but very expensive

The service is superb and people are warm and friendly. The location including the beach are pristine. Rooms are modern and well maintained. Bathrooms are proper and state of the art Not cheap but worth every penny

The architecture and decoration of the spa is stunning! The food was also of very good quality (we tried few salads and pasta dishes). Without doubt the best spa I have ever visited! Thank you all so much!

Amazing Spa facilities with great view! The Spa personnel and manager are very friendly and professional. The treatments I did were absolutely incredible. The environment is relaxing and inspiring

Whatever I write about the hotel and its people is not enough. They just want to make everything so easy for you, with unpretentious kindness, which is the definition of a holiday and relaxation

Domes of Elounda is a haven of luxury and impeccable service. From the moment you arrive, the front desk staff ensure a seamless and welcoming check-in

We had a lovely stay of 10 nights at this hotel. All of the staff were extremely courteous and helpful and made sure our stay was the best it could be. We would not hesitate to come back here

We are extremely satisfied with our stay at this hotel. Stella, the manager, took excellent care of us, especially since this is our second visit and we are celebrating our wedding anniversary

Porridge at breakfast would often be cold - I do not think the electric hob where the cast iron pot was placed was hot enough to maintain a desired temperature

Especially as the pot was topped up with milk throughout the course of breakfast - this often led to cold and overly milky porridge. A real shame for us porridge lovers! 2

Whilst high traffic areas such as the hotel reception are hard to keep pristine, we did note that certain parts of our family room caused some black feet and knees! I'm not sure if cleaning staff regularly mop the floors or just do a light dusting - but more could be done here to improve the cleanliness of the floors

awesome marvelous hotel! amazing views from early morning to sunset, beautiful seaside sitting area. excellent maintenance of the room, if you can, choose the rooms with the private pool (villa)

We stayed in this hotel during the shoulder season when it was 5 days from closing down for the season. They upgraded us from a 1 bedroom suite to a 2 bedroom suite

Unfortunately, in my opinion, the water is too cold. It was more comfortable to swim in the sea than in the pool. The hotel is slightly off the beaten path, so having a car is recommended

If you want space and beautifully kept grounds with flowers and peace this is perfect. The sea is so clear we able to see fish with just goggles

I was blown away with the fantastic private pool, the balcony view and the amazing room. They also had air condition that worked really well. Keep in mind, I was there end of October so the AC was not really needed

The restaurant was okay for some food and really good for some dishes. The Yacht club food was absolutely fabulous for me

The hotel is beautifully built and set in a great location overlooking the sea. The staff provide excellent service in a very friendly, courteous and polite manner. No is never an option with them

The perfect place to relax and feel Cretan hospitality. The hotel is amazing, they offer sea view and private pools for all rooms. The crew makes you feel as a guest and not as a customer

One of the best hotels I've ever been to, if not the best, especially if you value the astonishing design of the property as such - coloured marble bars, reception desk, artistic lamps - really beautiful place

Everything is solved with a big smile (even though the masks hide it, you can "see" their eyes smiling). Highly recommended for recharging your batteries. Thank you Cayo team!! We will meet again

The private pool in every room is a unique feature which affords you your own space and privacy. Cayo comes with all the trimmings and they have their own beach which is a few minutes walk away

Super accommodating and very friendly staff. The facilities are really beautiful and the view from the rooms is breathtaking. Food was really nice as well and we ate at the resort daily

They left us a bunch of wine , fruits , cakes and food in our villa waiting for us ! The hidden gem of this suite was the walkway down to a private jetty right on the sea ! Amazing little spot ! We also took out the resorts yacht for a day sail where I proposed to my girlfriend ! They set it up beautifully! 10/10 for style and service ! We did not visit the hotels pool since we had our own private...

Incredible experience! This was an amazing property and the service, along with the amenities were great from start to finish! My husband and I went to Elounda on the third leg of our island hopping honeymoon and we most definitely saved the best for last! We were warmly greeted with drinks and snacks upon arrival as well as a bottle of champagne in our room (as well as the traditional honey and nuts

The staff there was so accommodating (especially our waiter, who is hospitality at the nearby university!) We also frequented the beach bar quite a bit and Andreas was awesome! The breakfast offerings on the property were also amazing… several traditional Cretan dishes

Every little detail was thought of, down to a heart shaped door mat in front of our room. They also had a private breakfast delivered for us in our room the first morning

We had a private pool and beach access which was WONDERFUL! The view of the sunrise was unforgettable! We also went to the spa and experienced the pool, saunas and steam room (A+ experience)

It is definitely one of the most beautiful hotel in the entire world. The view is just amazing and the hotel is superb. The spa is great and you have and exceptional view of the sea from the restaurant

It’s very rare to have an incredible meal every evening but that’s exactly what we got. I never had the same food twice and tried everything they had to offer

We loved our family villa! Much better than the pictures. Cozy and modern furniture. Very friendly service and wonderful restaurant.

We stayed in the Samos villa for our honeymoon and the views were breathtaking. We had a private pool and massage room. Maria at the front desk is so sweet and the staff is amazing. We can’t wait to come back one day!

We stayed here for a week and have nothing but nice things to say. The staff is very welcoming and always at your service. The food is absolutely great, Cretan products with a twist

Nice view on Elounda bay and the surroundings

We stayed for close to a week at this hotel and were a bit disappointed. The positive is that the service - at the reception, in the restaurant, and the cleaners - was a solid-five star. Everyone was so nice and helpful

Really well maintained with friendly and polite staff. Food areas were immaculate with a good range of food. We were there for the last week of the season so a few amenities were not open

Amazing hotel and it is very family oriented, the staff were exceptional ( Georgia, Ismail from the hotel , TUI staff ( Louis and Stasha ), plenty of pools and very excellent water slides, the food was delicious and the main restaurant location and view is awesome

What a fabulous week we've had. Just using the free courtesy room to freshen up before the coach trip to the airport then back to the UK. Great food. Great refreshments. Great pools. Amazing staff. I can't fault it.

Breakfast buffet is really good. There is always meat, which are gaining as you want, and not as the Turks under the painting. There is practically no beach but has a pool

If to speak about super comfortable in terms of the weather and hotel service, then great! Amazing feelings and memories left and the hotel itself Elounda.

Great hotel, very clean and week kept. staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. Food was really tasty and a good variety each day.

Perfect spot!!! Nice, tidy and clean rooms!!! Staff is also really friendly!! We are definitely coming again!!! Highly recommended!!

My Mother and I had a REALLY REALLY wonderful stay at this hotel! The staff were soooo friendly and EXTREMELY kind. It is a family run hotel which has absolutely breathtaking stunning sea views

Also very close to the excellent bus service to be able to jump on and off buses to explore this BEAUTIFUL island!!! I cannot wait to go back!!!!!! Thank you for a fantastic stay, see you VERY soon!!!!

The location couldn’t be anymore central to Elounda for delicious restaurants, shops, bars, cafes etc

Centrally located in Elounda on the waters edge. Peaceful and my balcony overlooked Spinalonga. Clean and staff very friendly and welcoming

Views and grounds very lovely Sea view room was spacious and clean Breakfast was well presented and catered for all tastes

Had no problem when requested a change of room. Next morning offered a choice of two rooms. Poolside bar service is superb. Easy 20 minute walk into Elounda and 6 Euro taxi ride back if you don't fancy the walk

Honestly one of the best hotel experiences we’ve made so far. Great service and even greater relaxation guaranteed! Authentic greek, nice-to-look-at architecture meets the kindest staff you could only imagine

Breakfast is good and relaxed. Great views from pool and most rooms. Thoroughly recommend it for a relaxed and pampered holiday

Great exprience being at Elounda. The place was peaceful and clean - perfect for a wedding venue. We'll be back for sure!

Fabulous Hotel with stunning views ....negative on a slight incline ...but great modern boutique hotel.

From the warm greeting at check in with refreshing herbal drink to being whisked away in a buggy were seamless. It offers your own private pool, plus an adult-only plus a family pool area and the beach club

From the moment we arrived we felt the 'WOW' factor. The welcome drink with that incredible view was wonderful. We were then swiftly taken to our villa by golf buggy and met with two wonderful ladies who showed us around

We stayed in a 2 Bedroom Luxury Residence and I think I can safely say, with working in travel for 20+ years, this was the best 'room' I've ever stayed in

Everything about it oozed elegance and the private terrace and pool were just magical, not to mention the view. The pool remained warm throughout our stay and was so very welcoming after a day out exploring

Our accommodation was comfort and elegance, providing the perfect blend of luxury and tranquility. One of the highlights of our stay was undoubtedly the culinary journey offered at the Domes of Elounda

The bed was super comfy and there was AC and ceiling fans in every room. I was a little apprehensive before going as I knew the resort was very large and built on either sides of a hill
