Stunning property and staff all amazing. Very hilly so need to be fit to get around or have a car. Suites lovely, breakfast plentiful and tasty. Beach club about 10 mins away in complimentary shuttle bus. It’s quite far from Elounda town so we drove in each night. Would be great if hotel had a shuttle bus to take you there. Everything was fabulous and definitely good value for money

Generally a great place to stay

Staff and service were excellent, really child friendly. Terrace was big, pool was deep. Kids club was great, they never wanted to leave. My only negative comments would be our villa was dated and was certainly due new bathrooms as they were looking very tired.

A spectacular stay! We’ve spent a week and it was one of the best holidays we’ve had in a very long time! Staff: an absolute delight to interact with and extremely thoughtful and kind; the team go out of their way to help providing one of the best services we’ve ever had. Food: breakfast, lunch, and dinner; simply wow. The chef is so talented and the flavours are so well balanced, we rediscovered the greek cuisine during our stay! Villa: we had a room with a private infinity pool and massage room; it was clean, well equipped with scenic views of the coast.

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!

Beautiful salt water infinity pool, the view was fabulous. A great deal, the room and grounds could use some care, peeling paint, weeds, etc. the staff did not know about local weavers on the island. I tried to find them while I was there, but later on the plane found an article!! I would suggest tours of the local area through the front desk.

We booked a villa and ended up with the most magnificent view 24/7. The Villa was great and I could go on and on! The Staff was brilliant and special shout out to Maria and Angela who were warm, kind, and had great recommendations for restaurants in Plaka, Agios Nicholas, and Elounda. Everyone at the Elounda Gulf Villas made the experience special. The beach was great, the pool at the villa makes me want one at home. We would stay here again no question. All that said the view was the star. We highly recommend the EGV.
