Cretan charm with a splash of luxury
Nestled on the stunning shores of northern Crete, Elounda Akti Olous offers a perfect blend of traditional Greek charm and modern luxury, just a two-minute stroll from the warm sand and crystal-clear water of Elounda Beach.
Housed in a charming, sun-washed building that captures the essence of Cretan architecture, Elounda Akti Olous boasts whitewashed walls, a terracotta-tiled roof, and vibrant bougainvillea draped over the balconies. Each room is a sanctuary of comfort, equipped with air conditioning and free wi-fi. And many rooms feature private balconies, boasting stunning sea vistas.
The real pièce de résistance is the hotel’s rooftop pool. With panoramic views over Elounda Bay, it’s the perfect spot to take a refreshing dip or simply unwind with a good book. If you prefer to relax in the hot sun with a cool drink, the Sky Bar on the rooftop is the place to be. Here, you can sip on expertly crafted cocktails while looking out to the sun-dappled water of the bay and the rugged mountains beyond. If you’d prefer a bit more excitement, take the 10-minute boat ride to visit the ruined fortress on the nearby island of Spinalonga.
When it comes to dining, Elounda Akti Olous does not disappoint. The Blue Sea Restaurant, located right by the water, serves up a mouth-watering selection of Cretan and Mediterranean dishes. Whether you're looking for a leisurely breakfast, a light lunch, or a romantic dinner, you’re in for a treat. If you’d prefer something more casual, pop to the beachfront bar, where you can enjoy a quick bite or a refreshing drink while still topping up your tan…
Lounge by the rooftop pool, savour the flavours of Crete or dive into the island’s rich history. Whatever you do, you can be sure that self-indulgence and luxury will be at the core – because at Elounda Akti Olous, life’s a beach and then you dine!
