An introduction to Elounda
Part of the paradox of this place is that an unpretentious, former fishing village is now renowned for its number of top class hotels. But it's no surprise that the pampering resorts have chosen to cluster here, because luxury holidays in Elounda come complete with clear seas, a wild and rugged backdrop, a village with bags of atmosphere, and easy access to neighbouring resorts – like the legendary Aghios Nicolaos.
So you've decided on Crete, and now you want somewhere a touch exclusive. Holidays in Elounda are the natural choice. Home in on the Blue Palace Resort and Spa – for tranquil R&R amid opulent elegance. Water's edge favourites like the Elounda Beach and Elounda Bay Palace boast a good range of facilities in the lap of luxury. Holidays in Elounda Village are reserved exclusively for adults – so peace is undisturbed around the pools and private beach. And whichever one suits your personal style, you'll find a choice of wining and dining venues, time and space for lazy days, watersports for active interludes, rooms designed for total comfort …and blissful views of the bay.
Leave your cosseted enclave of calm and you could take a stroll (or a taxi) to the centre of this character-filled Cretan village, where bars, bistros and boat trips all enhance an easy pace.
So for 5-star holidays with all the trimmings, Elounda is hard to beat.
