Elounda Gulf Villas

“Luxurious resort with friendly staff”

We stayed here for a week and have nothing but nice things to say. The staff is very welcoming and always at your service. The food is absolutely great, Cretan products with a twist. Nice view on Elounda bay and the surroundings since the resort is located on a hill overlooking the bay.

“Perfect relaxing holiday.”

We loved our stay at this Amazing place, Staff excelled themselves at making our stay the most relaxing week. Food and service second to none…. cannot wait to go back…..

Had wanted to write this earlier but just been so busy. What I want to say is a massive thank you everyane was so friendly helpful. Our daughter (20 months) had a wonderful time and so did we. Arais, you have a brilliant team that works for you. After meeting you, I can see why you make everyone feel special. You went above and beyond for us and I really appreciate it. Sofia the restaurant manager, I wished I could have packed you in our suitcase and taken you home. You were wonderful to her. Thanks to you we were able to have our breakfast as you would wisk our daughter off to the kitchen and she would come back with fresh strawberries, nothing was to much trouble for her. The reception staff, Maria in particular, were so welcoming and lovely to her. I honsently feel we have our own Greek family. Can't wait to come back next year. We stayed in one of the deluxe suites and it was perfect. It was so luxurious and clean. We had our own patio and was just round the corner from the restaurant and pool. Everything was in pristine condition. And with our own transport to Elounda private beach. Thank you so much for the perfect holiday.

“Number One Hotel in Elounda”

Myself, my mum and my 15 year old son spent 4 nights at Elounda Gulf Villas during October Half term and it was the perfect break for all of us.

Myself, my mum and my 15 year old son spent 4 nights at Elounda Gulf Villas during October Half term and it was the perfect break for all of us. For a 15 yo to go on holiday with his Mum and Nan it had to be something special and EGV ticked all the boxes for us. We had a gorgeous 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom villa so we all had our own space and beautiful outdoor area with large pool. The villa felt like a home from home (albeit much grander than my flat in London!) but what really made our stay special was the staff. Every single member of the team was so friendly, warm and welcoming. Special shout out to Sofia and Giorgos who looked after us at dinner and the fabulous ladies on reception who couldn't do enough for us. The staff obviously take a lot of time to get to know the guests and remember their drink preferences, meal habits etc which makes you feel extra special. The food in Argo restaurant is excellent - we recommend the rooster which we had 3 X and the Angus burger for lunch. The room service menu is the same as the restaurant menu which is a treat as often room service menus are basic; we had a lovely dinner set up on our terrace on the last evening. The shuttle to the beach takes around 15 mins and it's a lovely, private beach to spend an afternoon. We had lunch at the beach which was a nice change from the main restaurant, serving burgers and souvlaki etc. The Greek night was fun and well attended, with Greek dancers who encouraged the guests to join in and a BBQ buffet style dinner. We were very lucky with the weather - end of October and it was 27 degrees and sunny all week! Apart from spending time by our pool and on the beach, we explored Elounda, Plaka and Agios Nikolaos all of which are within easy reach by taxi. We also took the boat to Spinalonga which is worth a visit for a couple of hours. We preferred Elounda to Plaka as although it's pretty Plaka is very small, not a great deal to do apart from take the boat to Spinalonga. For shopping Agios Nikolaos is great. Thank you to Aris the General Manager and the amazing team at Elound Gulf Villas for such a memorable stay ❤️ Having stayed at a number of other hotels in the area, EGV is the number 1.
