Elounda Gulf Villas and Suites

Our stay at this villa was magnificent. The property is breathtaking, every detail reflects luxury and comfort, from the elegant design to the amazing view. What truly made the experience unforgettable was the outstanding personal service. The staff were attentive. We felt genuinely cared for throughout our stay. Thank you for Louise and stuff who clean so huge vila. Highly recommended.

How do you describe perfection? We booked a Junior Suite at the beginning of May and arrived at Elounda Gulf Suites — only to discover we’d been upgraded to a stunning private villa with our own pool! The resort is beautifully designed to blend with the sea views. There’s a private beach with a shuttle and bar, a gorgeous infinity pool, and a rich, delicious breakfast. The villa was luxurious and completely private — but the real highlight was the service. Danny, Konstantin, and George made us feel truly cared for, with warmth and attention to every detail — and the entire staff was just as wonderful. The village of Elounda is nice but not particularly exciting — luckily, there are charming villages and great tavernas just a short drive away. Elounda Gulf Suites is a dream getaway. 5 stars just aren’t enough 🙂

Beautiful location, beautiful views, the room was large and nice. False advertising on the beach, which was 15 minutes drive from the hotel! On the email we received, we were told that check in was at 2pm, but getting there we were told it was not until 3pm. Service was not the best either, we were never asked if we wanted drinks or snacks at the pool, any time we needed a drink we had to walk to the bar (the beach service was nice). There is no fitness center (as advertised), they have a small hot room with 3 machines, few weights and old yoga mats. Shower was very uncomfortable, there is no place to put a shower head on, so you have to hold it all the time. There were also electrical wires sticking out of the wall in the bathroom. Espresso machine did not work, had to ask for a cup of coffee 3 times. A 3 star hotel trying to pretend they are 5.

The front desk staff were absolutely exceptional. As a Diamond member, I was welcomed with remarkable courtesy, upgraded to a better room, and greeted with a handwritten note, a fruit platter, and a bottle of wine. I even forgot €2,500 in my room and came back two days later to find that nothing had been touched. Such honesty and professionalism are truly rare. A heartfelt thank you to the entire team! Btw sunrise from de bed is 😍😍😍😍

The good Staff were all super friendly, breakfast was great with good variety and I always appreciate a breakfast with smoked/cured salmon and option to order a double espresso to start the morning. I felt that all the public areas felt fresh and it looked very sleek. Helpful with the luggages being golf cart driven at check in and check out, although needed for the hillside villa layout. The poor The parking lot is towards the top of the facilities so every morning going to the car felt like a trekk in the heat as the villas are on a hill. Not a problem if you stay in the resort but we didnt. Saltwater pool, would have preferred chlorinated. Size was otherwhise great with good views. Staff meeting where the general manager feed back to staff should really be held somewhere where guests cant hear this. Two consecutive days there were feedback commentary after breakfast at the restaurant and close to where we still sat. Not appropriate for a 5 star. The bad Whilst the room were spacious and felt decadent, our room (nemesis) was clearly not well maintained for a 5 star. Lots of paint splashes at the edges of the walk in wardrobe and bathroom made it feel less than fresh. No issues with the bed room or living room but its these details that made it feel less decadent. The whole room also felt like it had a layer of dust when we got in so the slippers helped but again such details shouldnt have been felt. The worse culprit was the middle of the bathroom which had marble tiles that clearly had been worne off, so that the underlying food or flooring was exposed with whatever glue or fixing that were being chipped off everytime we walked over it or even cleaners clean it. Not impressed by that and that room and area really needs to be looked over. High expectations for a 5 star but some serious letdown of the given room, and some really well executed areas.
