Elounda Mare Hotel is a luxury hotel in Elounda of Crete, near Agios Nikolaos, designed to take full advantage of the sea and the sun, the breezes and the stars, the views of the gulf of Mirabello and the distant mountains of Crete.
Arriving at Elounda Mare Hotel, one is struck by the simplicity and discretion of its luxury.
The architect - owner has toyed with the light and natural colours of this charming land, blending the traditional whitewashed walls with the local beige and grey rock, the scarlet hibiscus and the bright blue of the Aegean sea.
Staying at Elounda Mare Hotel is a treat for a tired spirit.
Each room feels homely, each verandah soothes the eye, each wall is attractively adorned with traditional artwork.
The comfort is augmented by air conditioned units, a fully stocked mini - bar, satellite television, touch tone telephone, hair dryer and in - house music in every room.
Strolling through the sprawling gardens and the arched pathways, you reach the bungalow. Paved throughout with cool beige marble and elegantly furnished, it seduces with its sheer simplicity and sense of space.
Out on the sunny terrace, your private swimming pool awaits you for a peaceful dip.
A hide away the size of the Elounda Mare that has three restaurants comes as a bit of a surprise. And with room service around the clock, you might never need to honour them.
Beginning the day with breakfast from the Deck Restaurant's rich buffet, watch the fishing boats hauling in their catch of the day.
A few hours later, this fresh fish is served on the shaded terraces of the Yacht Club, where the chef will prepare it to your liking.
On select evenings, the more intimate "Old Mill" restaurant offers an astonishingly fine menu to combine with our carefully chosen Greek and French wines. Jackets are appreciated in the evening.
Privacy and discretion go hand in hand at Elounda Mare. Various lounges, some more, some less secluded, are found within calling distance from the "Karavia" bar.
The "Body and Beauty" salon offers sauna, steam bath, massage, and hair care.
At all times the attentive staff remain true to the Relais & Chateaux tradition of Excellence.
Recreation at Elounda Mare Hotel is multifaceted.
The sandy beach is relaxing, but a plethora of sea sports is also there. Cordial multilingual instructors will improve your water skiing, wind surfing and S.C.U.B.A. diving, or take you for a day's sailing on their lovely yacht.
A nine - hole "par - 3' golf course is nearby at sister hotel Porto Elounda.
