Staff were very friendly and helpful - couldn’t have asked for more. The actual hotel is very clean and well kept. However, it is almost split in half in terms of renovation / comfort - both for the rooms and communal areas. Overall comfortable and nice, but could be better for the price point. The half board buffet was a little disappointing in terms of range / quality, but the restaurant staff were very kind.
Would go back, but probably wouldn’t take the half board option next time.

Spacious rooms, peaceful place.
Very spacious rooms. Our suite had a private pool which was lovely. Very clean facility and service staff was nice. Our only complaint would be the food. Not that it was bad but the breakfast buffet was exactly the same each morning. One of us has food allergies so her choices were very limited.

Spa facilities not available
Really wanted a massage and spa treatment, but despite me visiting the spa on 3 separate days and waiting 2 to 3 hours on 2 days, nobody showed up. This would really have made my trip perfect, as I was staying at the Elounda golf resort for the previous week, which is not comparable in terms of the cost, so felt this really did ruin my holiday experience as I had to leave the hotel to find other places.

This hotel was beautiful and I would stay here again in a heartbeat! The breakfast was amazing. The views were amazing. We got upgraded to a room with a private pool and it was glorious!! The only thing they don’t have is a bellhop, but we managed to roll our luggage ourselves. Everything else was perfect!

Fantastic hotel
Stayed in a junior suite and having your own pool was amazing. Watching the sunrise was spectacular. All the staff were really friendly and helpful and the beds by the pool are so comfortable. It is walkable into the main harbour area where all the bars are but a taxi is only €8 each way. Would visit again and would have a suite again.

This is an incredible hotel in so many ways and is an oasis of calm and tranquility. From the beautifully appointed room with its own pool to the gorgeous well maintained gardens, Elounda Palm provided everything we needed for a lovely relaxing holiday. All the staff are friendly and accommodating, the food is very good and the breakfast buffet and evening meal buffet offer a wide selection. The hotel is within walking distance of Elounda that has lots of restaurants and shops. The next town along the coast towards Spinalonga leper colony is Plaka and is definitely worth a visit. We would highly recommend this hotel for anyone who is wanting a relaxing holiday in stunning surroundings.

Great location close to Elounda
Just back from a weeks stay at the hotel. Service staff are very helpful, room and facilities mainly new and tastefully done. We didn’t eat in the hotel as Elounda was a very short drive away.
I would definitely stay at this hotel again. Thanks to the hotel manager and all staff

Great
Understated place (that’s a positive) and quiet. Very clean and comfortable. Breakfast got a bit boring after a week although it is a nice buffet. Service was good but really non existent. For example when we checked in they didn’t tell us where to park our car effectively and also when we checked out they didn’t even ask how our stay was - like I said, understated. We will be back though.

Quiet, secluded hotel above Elounda with fantastic sunrise view from the infinity pool. Very relaxing and the staff were fantastic, buffet breakfast set you up for the day. We wanted to experience traditional Greece and we got it in spades.

Clean room, great food!
Overall this was a great experience. Unfortunately, our Ferry from another island was late, and the only major negative experience for the entire stay at this hotel was the attitude from the front desk gentleman when he checked us in late at 10:30pm. Not cool. Otherwise, we got the room with the pool and let me tell you, it’s not heated. Don’t waste your money on it if you’re traveling in the month of May or earlier. The ocean view was slight, but still beautiful. The huge positive callout was the amazing restaurant breakfast, awesome staff and amazing room service. They really made up for a lot, and it was the highlight of our Crete trip. The property is beautiful, and our room was updated and clean.

Slice of heaven!
Incredible stay at the Elounda Palm. Myself and my partner enjoyed our stay so much. The staff were so helpful and always had a smile on their faces. I couldn’t recommend this hotel enough. The pool and pool area is incredible well maintained and is a beautiful setting to relax. The poolside bar and food is of a very high level. It is a short 15 minute stroll down to all the bars and food places right on the water in Elounda and taxis are easy to get back at around 8 euros if you dont want to walk back. Don’t hesitate to book staying at the Elounda Palm.
