Hotels with sea view in Elounda

Town loads of fabulous restaurants looking over the sea, only 10 mins walk from hotel

We are very happy here. We have been coming already 40 times. People are very friendly and it is just as coming home. We already booked our holidays for 2026

She speaks several languages, is funny, and such a pleasure to be around. She also gave us excellent tips on what to visit and where to eat. All the staff were extremely polite and paid great attention to the guests

Excellent! The hotel is fabulous; staff amazing especially Anna Maria, she is the best , tries so hard to make your holiday the best, we love coming here

Breakfast lovely, fantastic view looking over the sea, so relaxing ! Beach lovely, loads of Fish swimming around your feet! Always lots of sunbeds

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

Download the Elounda Beach app for all the information you require about the menus etc. Dinner in the restaurants is on the pricey side but to be expected in this class of hotel

We enjoyed a perfect holiday at Elounda Beach Hotel. You can completely relax here in the beautiful surroundings and experiences excellent food in the restaurants

I would opt for the breakfast only package - there are a plethora of decent places to eat in nearby villages and towns and you’ll not be tied into dining at the hotel every evening

There is no bar scene as such - it’s all pretty quiet by 12, which suited us but if you are used to a more raucous atmosphere I’d suggest somewhere else

All in all, an amazing experience in a beautiful part of Crete and I would highly recommend this resort to anyone who wants to unplug from their everyday and totally relax in beautiful surroundings

The on-site food is good , but you will have had better , if you like fine dining/are a bit of a foodie and booking a table reservation was easy

A Truly Amazing Stay – Like Paradise! We’ve just returned from an incredible stay at this hotel as a family of four from Scotland, and we’re already missing it! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm, friendly smiles from the staff, who couldn’t have been more helpful or welcoming

Their kindness made a wonderful first impression and set the tone for the rest of our stay. The hotel itself is spotless and beautifully maintained, with stunning views that made it feel like a slice of paradise

A special thanks to Anthi at reception, who was incredibly kind, always ready to help with any issue, and did so with a genuine smile. Her assistance made our experience even more enjoyable

Our kids absolutely loved the pool – we could hardly get them out of it! The buffet food was always fresh and delicious

If we could suggest one small improvement, it would be to add themed nights for a bit more variety – but honestly, we were more than happy with the quality and selection each day

This was our favorite place to stay on our two week trip around Greece. The hotel itself is beautiful and very clean. The room was amazing also and the bathroom was very nice

Location in is amazing set in the hills so the views are incredible, we booked a room with pool, but point to note £60euros per day to heat it, which was a bit disappointing, however the room was large and very comfortable, the bedroom is separated by a partition so there is a lot of lights at night from security lights

The staff so friendly and welcoming and not intrusive. Our room was amazing and watching sunrise was incredible. I had the BEST head, neck, shoulder and back massage with Eleni, she has magical fingers!!! Thank you ☺️

Thank you too to all the staff, but special mentions for Saimira in housekeeping, Dana in reception and our darling Mythos, who is more than just a wonderful employee, she's a wonderful person

Well, what can I say about this beautiful hotel. It's my 2nd time to visit this year, first time with my husband and kids and second time with my mum and we were welcomed back like family

The views from this beautiful hotel are only matched by the warmth of the staff. Don't be fooled by the calm, laid-back atmosphere. This hotel runs like clockwork

Breakfast is a highlight with beautiful food and warm staff, a special thank you to Margarita for her kindness to myself and my mum each morning

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

Horsham burdeiny option. A small artificial beach. Sunset in the sea from the pier.

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.

Absolutely beautiful, food is lovely, staff are fabulous. Pools are lovely too.

If we had paid full price then we would have been a bit miffed. If you are you going on the water slides use a ring or lilo. The joins on the slides rip you to bits!

All of the restaurants are to die for, we had no issue going back for dinner a second or third night to a restaurant because there were so many things on the menu we wanted to try

29 years ago we honeymooned here. Time passed and we finally found our way back. It has only become better one better. Our room had a private pool with stunning views

The location, while not offering the very best view of Mirabello Bay and Spinalonga Island – which lies further north – is still breathtaking and its most fascinating feature in my opinion is the secluded, elegant, cozy, reserved, and quiet atmosphere

The sea is crystal clear and very salty, so floating requires minimal effort and makes swimming even more relaxing

Breakfast was gorgeous, with every kind of excellent food and, though I do not usually indulge in sweets, I could not refrain from noticing eleven different types of cakes (a few of which I guiltily, but more than satisfactorily, tried)

And the service, from welcome, to servers to cleaning staff were courteous, helpful and friendly. Truly an amazing experience at every step and at every moment. And the facilities and grounds are impeccable

Also in the bathroom there is no curtain, after showering the whole floor wet. From hotel to sea beach is a narrow lane where a mess

Great little place,hills and steps to contend with,so bear this in mind if booking,but they do have a golf buggy and are more than happy to assist you up and down driveway as long as you communicate with them,nice breeze around pool which is much needed with the heat,food was amazing,no complaints

Gregory the bartender was another notable member of staff, as well as the manager, who was always on hand to help. Overall the staff really make this place feel special. The views from this place were incredible

A great sunrise in the morning and beautiful views of the mountains across Mirabello Bay. The food tasted amazing, handmade and fresh. The chef at this hotel makes a wide range of delicious meals

They are a family of staff and work thier socks off ! I can’t mention them all by name but they made our holiday an absolute pleasure ! I can’t than thank them enough for caring about us which is so lost these days in hospitality, kindness wins !!!!!

The staff were friendly and courteous, especially Albert, who seemed to be doing a range of roles from helping with baggage on arrival to waiting on food ect, a really helpful member of the team

They could not have done more for us, and my older son was positively enamoured with Stella throughout his stay! The team dropped off some little toys and gifts for them, arranged for fizz and chocolate mousse cake for our anniversary, and checked in on us frequently - nothing was too big an ask! They even kindly accommodated our friends (who were staying at Phaea Blue next door - beautiful but far...

Celebrating our 34th wedding anniversary. The staff go over and above, always polite and happy. The welcome gift was a pleasant touch and the anniversary cake a nice surprise

There's also a ferry from the nearby towns. Try and get chairs where there is a sandy entrance to the water. Otherwise you're stepping on large rocks. We came late in the season so the sea temp was around 75F

We were upgraded on arrival to a sea view room with jacuzzi. Can’t wait to try Makris tonight

The kitchen had organised a meal for us with prosecco drinks, chocolates and turkish delight. The staff in the restaurant were so attentive and interesting to talk to. Particularly Adhul and Giorgio serving us outside

The meals were fantastic, tasty, fresh and superbly displayed. Quite honestly spoilt for choice! The grounds, pool, beach and surrounding areas were beautifully maintained

It operates 3 times weekly, and it is not only delicious but also a good opportunity to meet and mingle with one's fellow guests, as the seating is at a long wooden table, and with the chefs

Possibly the nicest hotel I have ever stayed in. The facilities and the grounds are exquisite and the staff are above and beyond. The restaurant serves some of the most delicious food I have ever eaten.

Room service was fast with very taste mediterannean dishes. We had also body treatments in the wellnes area that was so relaxed. Thank you to everyone for your hospitality and special mention to Maria

Misleading Marketing Negatives Marketing and website over sells. It has the feel of a large hotel, which after a bit of research was the case. It rebranded and remarketed in 2024

The understated elegance that fully takes at advantage of the natural views that come with this location is truly stunning. We truly appreciated the food and the service I this amazing spot

) and Elounda about a 40 minute walk - fine during the day, but probably not to be recommended in the dark as pavement missing in places. We wouldn't hesitate to stay at Phaea Blue again if we returned to the area

We have had a lovely 10 days at the Elounda Orama - all the staff are so helpful and welcoming - our room was lovely and spacious and the bed and pillows were excellent which is always a bonus - we had a large balcony with added sunloungers which were a real treat and a lovely view of the sea and Spinalonga in the distance - the dining area had stunning views of Elounda Bay which were a delight when...

This is our 2nd visit to Elounda Orama and we had a superior sea view room with stunning views of Elounda Bay. Room was spacious and clean, staff are friendly and accommodating

The position of the hotel couldn't be better, the short stroll to the beach in the mornings was one of my favourite things. We didn't really use the pool, so cant really comment on it

We stayed bed and breakfast and it consists of plenty of choice. although fruit juices were not fresh, the view whilst eating breakfast is so beautiful that I didn't mind 😅

10/10 experience! I’m hesitant to leave this review because I don’t want to ruin it with too many people but hands down best hotel in Elounda

You can walk everywhere in Elounda (don’t rent a car and don’t organize through hotel — should be $100 ride from Heraklion port/airport)

We had a jet 2 week holiday at this lovely hotel. We had a superior grove room, which was well equipped and spacious but lacking in a view. I think the main building has the better views, but much smaller rooms

When booking, I was given the option to choose a sea view or standard room - we didn’t upgrade so went with the standard room

We have just returned from a 5 night stay at this beautiful hotel we booked here as attending a family wedding nearby , staff couldn’t do enough for you. Couldn’t fault anything about this hotel

My wife and I enjoyed a lovely week here. Our room was more than adequate for us. Small balcony with a glimpse of Elounda and the sea. The staff are really nice people and can’t do enough for you

Thank you for making our stay a memorable one

The breakfasts are served in the ground floor restaurant and overlooking the bay. Everyone was very welcoming, we feel that we had found a little gem of a hotel and will be back

Superb views, great standards of cleanliness, rooms absolutely everything you'd expect or more for a hotel in this range

Ideally located both for Elounda itself and the peninsula where you have some wonderful wilder beaches. Didn't eat in the hotel much but had breakfast once and dinner once, both of which were excellent value

This is our second time in Elounda and our first stay here but if we come back again, we won't look anywhere else

The rooms are modestly appointed yet well-maintained, featuring a pleasant outdoor area suitable for enjoying refreshments or light snacks. The staff are very friendly and go out of their way to accommodate your needs

The staff were super friendly and helpful. The pool was clean and there were plenty of loungers for all. A few minutes walk into Elounda the location was great Rooms had a mini fridge and the beds were comfortable

I think it's unfair to compare the Krini with some of the big resort hotels further out. The Krini is not in the luxury bracket, but it’s in a great location, very safe and only a short walk into Elounda

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

I have reviewed Elounda Heights before but felt it worthy of another. It is a very special place with a unique atmosphere run by a small but tight team of 10 people who are all super friendly

The location is really good because it is on a quite mountain with an amazing view but also very close to the village if you want to find a good taverna. But you can also enjoy fresh dinner at the hotel

From the incredibly warm welcome on arrival to the pristine accommodation, excellent food and stunning views, Elounda Heights always delivers an amazing, relaxing holiday

Natalia, Kostas and all the staff go out of their way to ensure that every guest has a wonderful experience. For us, it is always a perfect holiday and we will be returning yet again in 2026

There is an on-site restaurant and bar where meals are served every evening (except Sundays), and a daily special is created by the legend that is Vangelis. There is an ala carte menu too

I love my hiking and Elounda Heights is perfectly positioned to offer a number of excellent and varied hikes. We are always sad to leave at the end of our stay. but all good things must come to an end (so they say)

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

There are many sun loungers for different tastes of staying in the sun. In the morning at dawn, everything is treated with disinfectant solutions. The rooms are excellent, nothing special, but cozy

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

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

I see this as a consequence of the spacious setting in a pretty landscape. 50 minutes walk to Elounda town center, no bus connection. All staff is very friendly and helpful

5 euros for a coffee capsule in the room is insignificant for those staying here, but I must say it doesn't look very appealing. The sea in the area is worse than other areas because it's located between two islands

Spent two glorious weeks here in October 2025. The hotel is spread across the hillside with inter-connecting walkways. There’s golf buggies that can be summoned via the phone to pick you up and take you to other areas

The staff are all super friendly, and do all they can to make your stay memorable. We stayed half board in a room with a private pool and terrace

The taxi back was €10 so good value. Defo take cash as some restaurants wouldn’t take card. We would definitely return to this fabulous place

I loved the interaction with staff and other guests at breakfast and dinner. Food was varied and of good quality

I had to write a review for this amazing hotel! I had 5 days here with my grown up daughter. Everything was amazing! If you can, book the pool rooms…what a treat! The gym was well kitted out and not too busy

The food was also very good, with a lot of different dinner options to choose from, varying every night. We had a lovely time, and definitely will go back there again

We had a lovely holiday here in a resort that is small enough to feel that you get to experience the real Greece

We had a brilliant stay here the food was brilliant with a different theme every night the pool was lovely and was always easy to get sunbeds my kids enjoyed the water slides ,mini golf along with the football basketball volleyball and table tennis

The only down side I would say is the fact that the hotel is quite far from the airport this being our first family holiday abroad we booked a airport shuttle which we waited 2 hours for with 3 children at around 1 in the morning this obviously has nothing to do with the hotel but this was the only problem we had the whole holiday when we arrived it was around 3 am and the man who checked us in was...

The water park keeps the kids happy and happy kids means happy parents! It was a well kept hotel with all the amenities that we needed, we also felt welcomed and looked after throughout our stay

If you want to explore more of the island, you can also hire a car directly through the hotel. It’s very convenient and made discovering Crete simple and stress-free, definitely a big plus

The private beaches are probably the best on the island, with soft sand and wave breakers that keep the water calm and peaceful. It made for the most relaxing days by the sea

This feels like a bit of a hidden gem because it didn’t come up high in our search results, yet the quality was way higher than the Domes, where we also stayed

The photos were quite limited, so we didn’t know exactly what to expect, but the space and layout were far beyond what we imagined. We arrived late, and the staff were kind, patient, and incredibly accommodating

The children’s pool is gently heated and perfect for little ones, and there was plenty to do around the grounds. We didn’t end up using the creche much because we were happy just spending time together on site

It really stood out how every staff member was willing to help, not just the one assigned to our table. They were also so lovely to our son, which made mornings even better. The resort is very family friendly

The view from our room was amazing too, and waking up to the sound of the water was unforgettable. Breakfast was a highlight every morning. The team there deserves a special mention

I had an apartment all to myself I felt like royalty, I know all the staff but it changes each season but some are here year in year out, which I good to see

As I won't be here for a while now, due to family commitments, I'm making the most of the beautiful scenery and the sea

An amazing and relaxing weekend. As me and my wife we make a tour of the east Crete we visited elounda. The hotel is beautiful, large room , fantastic sea view and amazing host

The rooms here are clean and comfortable, and there is always plenty of room hot water for the shower. We had a sea view room just a few metres from the sea, maybe 12/15m

The staff are all so helpful and friendly, but special mention about Nikos, he always seems to be delighted by everything! Also the Ginger cat is a lovely little chap, who seemed to adopt us! We have visited before, and are looking forward to coming back in the future

One called Cosmos who, if I remember correctly, was a Lawyer! Their mother elative used to prepare the days veg every morning having slept on one of the settles in the Taverna bar! Such wonderful memories!!
