Reviews for Elounda Mare Hotel
Excellent as always .
Great stay again . Service top class - all staff . Our bungalow with pool welcoming . Nice to swim and cool down after a warm days sightseeing . Food in the Yacht Club excellent and location . Food and wine in Il Borro in the ‘sister hotel’ over priced and despite the location not worth it . Il Borro - please get your house wine priced more reasonably and increase portion size ! Magical place - gardens beautiful . Many thanks to the gardners who keep the grounds so nice ! We will hopefully return again .

Elounda Mare was an unexpected gem!
We were so taken with our stay at The Elounda Mare. This hotel is a throwback to a former time. It felt luxurious and extremely comfortable. The grounds and rooms were very well kept. The breakfasts were the amongst the best we have ever seen in a European hotel. The concierge, Joanna, gave us incredible recommendations for meals and activities. She was a gem as were all the people we connected with at the hotel. If you’re looking for quiet luxury, look no further

Honeymooner’s Paradise
Absolutely beautiful, stunning views of the bay, amazing facilities, and so many great dining options here and at the sister resorts nearby. Quick buggy ride or boat between them. Our honeymoon here was the stuff of dreams; an upgrade to a lovely and luxurious bungalow, the most hospitable and welcoming staff, and so many activities on offer. The jet skis and paddle boarding was loads of fun, and the snorkeling off the beach is just as good as any excursions - lots of pretty fish, reefs, and crystal clear water. Highly recommend the spa, massages were excellent - get there early to make use of the massive and impressive pools, steam, sauna, cold plunge, etc. Special thanks to the manger Ioanna who was so lovely and made sure we never wanted for anything. 5-stars, we will be back.

Exceptional
We stayed as a family in August and the stay was the highlight of the holiday for all the family. From the furniture of the living rooms, to the gardens and small beach everything is perfect. We had 2 sea facing rooms the view is breathtaking both at sunrise and sunset. The staff is kind and go out of their way to be helpful and do so always with a smile on their face. We also took a boat trip to Spinalonga with Apostolos and it was amazing. A true 5 star experience unlike other places we stayed in Crete. Cannot recommend enough.

Quite nice but old style
The service and location is great. Nice beach and quiet hotel. The food is OK but not more than that. We booked a 2 bedroom suite with pool and were really disappointed, did not look like the pictures at the web at all. Appeared that two of the suites have been upgraded and two are really old. We were eventually moved to the sister hotel Elounda Mare.

We just returned from the Elounda Mare and were so, so pleased with all the warm hospitality and kindness
extended to our family. It was just super - from the accommodations to the dining to the facilities. No words can describe how thrilled we are to have found such a great vacation spot.We will definitely return there and will highly recommend the hotel to many of our friends.
