1. Elia Woodstone Houses

Hersonissos

"The people and place were welcoming and helpful. From dealing with a medical emergency to finding a last minute ride to the airport, our hosts could not have been more lovely. They accommodated us more then enough and treated us like family/close friends. We loved our down time at the villa in the swimming pool and on the amazing verandas, and strolling the streets of the village throughout the day was peaceful and picturesque. The a/c splits worked well to cool most rooms, and the kitchenette...

"Staff and food are incredible - massive shout out to Stella, Ionna, Pat, Vasilios and the guys from the bar - all great and couldn’t do enough. The spa is gorgeous with lovely treatments. Drinks are good but if you only drink premium branded liquor then expect to pay - the drinks were nice otherwise but we did pay in the evenings for a nice bottle of wine or premium cocktail. We will definitely be back as it was 100% a 5 star experience. A beautiful resort run by lovely people."

"This is no 5* star hotel. Superficially the hotel looks fine especially in the promotions, however in reality the facilities were poor and food was cold and uninspired. Rooms barely cleaned daily and amenities in room not replaced. The little touches of your normal 5* were not at this hotel. Had booked half board but gave up and ate out . Would recommend the Medsa and Island Restaurant (this is unrelated to the hotel)"

Top Elaia Hotel Reviews

Enorme Santanna Island - Premium All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean and accommodating resort, short of no amenities. Staff are extra attentive and make you feel extremely comfortable especially when travelling with kids. Staff are amazing - arrived early and they did everything they possibly can to get the room ready well ahead of check in time which was great. Daily buffet changes offering a huge variety of food even for the fussiest eater."

Peninsula Resort & Spa - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"L'hôtel est magnifique. Nous étions dans une suite face à la mer. Le seul point un peu négatif est que la suite était très simple comparée au reste du complexe qui est fantastique. La bouffe est excellente. Un très beau séjour."

Aquila Atlantis Hotel

8/10 Good

"Nice pool, great breakfast, very helpful/friendly staff, cleanliness could’ve been better and beware of parking situation - very limited spots! We spent lots of time looking for a spot at night with 2 babies…"

Stella Island Luxury Resort & Spa - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"We had the most relaxing, amazing stay at Stella island! The staff looked after us so well from the second we arrived and the food at the different restaurants was incredible. We will definitely be returning in the future!"

Agapi Beach Resort - Premium All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

":)"

Phāea Cretan Malia, a Member of Design Hotels

10/10 Excellent

"The most impressive was quality of food in buffet and the 3 restaurants. It's also perfect for families with kids. Cleaning was good, but missed some spots occasionally. The rooms are descent sized, comfy beds, bathroom was a bit small, but not a problem. What made stay great was that it was such a compact resort, but somehow they have "hidden the rooms" so it doesn't feel crowded. Beach is great, with plenty of chairs, pools the same. Amazing place for kids, as they kept meeting new friends, and parents could relax with a good overview pools and beach areas. Kids club had good opening hours and nice staff. Some staff members were excellent, some average, but they were all helpful with the kids. Food was beyond expectations. Top ingredients cooked very well. Exceptional value for money. What could be improved- Though most food was included, a couple of dishes needed extra payment. No roomservice was included in the Effortless package, but the ice cream shop was. There were 2 Wine lists, Effortless (all inc) + regular. The regular was available everywhere, the full effortless only in restaurants. In Bars only 3 wines, but all drinks included. Wine selection on effortless wine list could be improved, but a couple of good wines so no issues. Did not like shampoo and shower gel at all. Overall, for what we paid, we feel we received great value, our kid met so many new friends it was a great vacation for all. Will definitely be back."

Lyttos Beach - All Inclusive

8/10 Good

"Hi, Very good hotel, The kids enjoy it The line was too long at the restaurant"

Creta Maris Resort - All Inclusive

"Amazing hotel."

Lato Boutique Hotel
