The best stay and the best hotel :)
Pros:

Just got back from a wonderful stay at this stunning hotel. The location is perfect and within walking distance to lots of nice bars and restaurants. The rooms are beautifully designed, super clean and very comfortable. We were made to feel so welcome from the moment we arrived till the moment we left… I would say the staff are what makes this place so special - Eleni , Maria , Nikki and Sofia
We had the best time ! Thank you :)

Pros:

kamer en terras

Cons:

Geen koffieapparaat. En voor een koffie 's morgens moest betaald worden. Voor een kamerprijs van 250€/nacht mag toch wel een koffieapparaat met enkel capsules verwacht worden.

Comfortable and wonderful stay in Elounda
Pros:

Modern, clean cleverly designed and integrated suites and rooms , a balcony jetted tub suite is a great option, if that’s what you like .
The staff and management are wonderful and caring. It felt like staying with family, nothing was too much trouble. This is a an authentic experience combined with a modern facility offering all that you could want. Restaurants and tavernas within easy strolling distance. The hotel owners also have a restaurant in town where they treat you like celebrities , with the restaurant offering an excellent menu and the best wine list from all eating establishments we tried. The off site, but convenient parking area was a bonus and greatly appreciated.
Breakfast option at the property was both generous and delicious. Looking to book Elounda …. Then book here , it’s delightful.

Cons:

A softer mattress would be our preference but that’s entirely subjective.

Just wonderful!
Pros:

Just the most incredible stay in September! The hotel is perfectly located in quaint Elounda, the hotel team are so incredibly friendly & make you feel so welcome and the hotel itself is small but beautiful. We truly couldn’t speak any more highly of the hotel and the team! They even bought me a beautiful cake on my birthday which was a lovely personal touch!

Cons:

The only slight downfall which we knew when booking the hotel was the size of the pool area but it wouldn’t be fair to judge this given we had seen the pictures when booking!
Also we had a hot tub room which backed onto the street behind our room so we found people walking past looking in to the room if our door was open or sitting on our wall looking down, whilst we were awkwardly trying to relax and enjoy drinks in the hot tub. The wall was not high enough to give privacy, I wouldn’t book this room type if we returned.

Pros:

Elounda Stories is near many restaurants that you can walk to, also near the beach and the town center where the taxis line up.

Beautifully appointed boutique hotel in a convenient location, great for couples.
Pros:

Good location in a quiet area but an easy walk to the centre. Our room was private and benefited from a nice Jacuzzi on the terrace. Lovely view from the terrace. Excellent aircon which kept the room cool. Staff were very friendly and helpful with any questions. Private parking a short walk away and possible to drop and collect luggage directly at the hotel.

Cons:

We would have made use of the lovely bar if it had been permanently manned. Minor point, the terrace was a little small with the Jacuzzi, so a only a single sunbed and sofa/table. It is a very sunny terrace so an umbrella would have been nice in addition to the built in shade.

Relaxed and easy.
Pros:

Fantastic staff and great position. 1 minute to the sea and 5 minutes along the walkway to the square. Great rooms and staff. Free parking is an absolute bonus- difficult enough in high season (parking is 100 metres away but easy walk).

Cons:

Nothing
