Domes of Elounda, Autograph Collection, Crete

We had an amazing time at Domes of Elounda! The complex is very beautiful, nestles pleasantly into the landscape and offers an incredible view of the island of Spinalonga. Luxury à la five stars! Great and spotlessly clean house, very comfortable beds and our own warm pool with an incredible view of the bay. The food at the Core is very nice and tasty, especially for families - our kids love this place. All our wishes were fulfilled. There were always problems with the bill regarding the dine around - but we were always more than accommodated. The Haute Living service is great! One morning, beautiful helium balloons were delivered at 9 o'clock sharp for my husband's birthday (I paid for them, of course). The hotel donated a magical chocolate cake and champagne for his birthday. The entire team deserves special mention - from the cleaning fairies to the hotel manager Pantelis. I would especially like to thank Eleni, Chara, Panos and Petros - wonderful, helpful people who always seem to be working. We went on great excursions with our two teenagers (Spinalonga, safari up to 1,200 meters above sea level, private boat trip, cube cruising and Easter night in Agios Nikolaos). However, there is one thing I would like to point out and have already discussed with the hotel manager: There were lots of nice activities for small children, but no real program for teenagers. The teens club is nicely done, but the focus is too much on gaming (Minecraft, Fortnight). There is definitely a need for action here. Nevertheless, I can say that I have rarely returned home so deeply relaxed and satisfied, because practically every wish was read from our eyes - simply an amazing team!

Fantastic hotel, excellent service. Great food. Superb kids club. Handy for both Plaka and Elounda towns. Clean - a special thank you to our cleaner Butterfly, who was so friendly and obliging - it was a pleasure to say hello every morning: and Elena the concierge who was so helpful.

A perfect family holiday. Just back from our week stay here and I would highly recommend to anyone travelling with children (of any age). Our 2.5 year old was so well looked after and everyone was so kind and helpful. The views are absolutely stunning - as a family, we opted for a 2 bed villa with pool and it by far exceeding expectations. The beach is so beautiful, with incredible views over towards Spinalongq. There is a waiter who works behind the bar on the beach (curly hair but not sure of his name), he was so kind and our daughter was treated like a Princess! The Kids club here is also wonderful - Eleni and her team looked after our toddler for a few mornings and the facilities and cleanliness of the creche were better than those of our nursery back home in the UK. Connie babysat for our daughter for a few nights and she was so kind, so much so that our daughter didn’t want to leave and actually asked ‘where’s Connie?’ and cried when she realised we weee leaving. Another huge thank you to the concierge in Haute Living. I’m not sure of his name but, again, such a superstar. I would definitely recommend paying the extra for HL, lunch-type food comes out at around 1pm and it means that you don’t need to pay restaurant prices for lunch. Having said that, would highly recommend the 15 min walk to neighbouring village Plaka, beautiful shops and restaurants and well worth the trip. I can’t wait to return to Domes of Elounda. Am so glad we discovered it when our daughter is only 2.5, it means we can have many more trips here before she gets bored of us! Thanks again for everything!

Beautiful place, some of the warmest and friendliest people I have come across working in the hotel. They seemed genuinely happy to be at work and happy to help, nothing was too much or any trouble for them! Special mention for Sara, Chara and Petros All round great family holiday was had, I would highly recommend!!
