Hotel Review
With a passing resemblance of a traditional Cretan village, this sprawling Relais & Chateaux hotel situated on a pretty cove overlooking Mirabello Bay in northeastern Crete enjoys an abundance of restaurants, bars and other facilities, some shared with adjacent sister hotels Porto Elounda and Elounda Peninsula. Fine dine Italian one night, Greek another and Japanese the next. There’s a relaxed and subdued vibe more suited to older couples than young families. Facilities include a Six Senses spa, private beaches and pools, water sports facilities, a 9-hole golf course, football pitch and tennis court. Choose between comfortable seaview rooms and suites in the main hotel, as well as bungalows and villas with their own pools. Rooms are typically spacious, and traditionally and tastefully decorated with antique furniture, rugs and tapestries, mottled white walls or exposed stone, and marble bathrooms.
