Great hotel, the price was right, the location was excellent, the facilities were just what we needed and the staff went out of their way to help us with anything, including a lift into town on the first day to show us around! Breakfast was really nice, great choice, rooms were clean with AC and fridge/TV. No frills but good clean facilities. It's about 15 minutes easy walk from Elounda town, about 20metres from the sea. The beach, or shore line, is pebbled, you will need flip flops or 'coral shoes' as it's not easy on the feet.
Regular buses from about 50 metres up the road from the hotel to either Elounda, Agios Nikolas or Plaka. Brilliant views all around. Pools were nice, again nothing spectacular, but this is a hotel for people who like to get out and about. It's good enough to relax in for a day or two, but stay here if you're wanting to see the sights and eat out. Hire a car as Well! But do it from a local company in Elounda.
