Review 6:This was an exceptional place to stay. From the very first moment we were made to feel welcome. Nothing was too much trouble for the super guy who manages the place. Delicious breakfasts were cooked to order and served near the pool. The room was kept immaculately clean but we were never disturbed by cleaning staff. The garden suites are away from the hustle and bustle of the resort, but only a few minutes walk. It was a gorgeous, relaxing holiday. Thank you, Mario!
Review 7:The premises are spacious and quiet, though a very short walk from the middle of town with the shops, the tavernas and the beach. Conveniently located, amply and efficiently run by a discrete helpful staff, headed by mario who seems to be in full control. Spacious clean rooms, delightful swimming pool, sumptuous healthy food.
Review 8:We had to leave....
Review 9:Great location next to the center. We had an enjoyable time. Staff was friendly and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble for them. Large rooms with two balconies each. Great value for money!!!
Review 10:Last Sunday we have returned from Elounda Garden Suites where we enjoyed a relaxing and lovely stay. The reasons for us to return: The nice suite with two private balconies, the friendly and caring staff, the excellent breakfast, the snacks and the fantastic pool area. A big thank you to Mario, Katerina, George, Alexandra and Alex. We highly recommend Elounda Garden Suites.
Review 11:I do not usually leave reviews, but the team at Elounda Garden Suites really went out of their way to make my holiday perfect in every way. Mario at reception was the perfect host. The accommodation was spacious, clean and had wonderful views across the gardens from two balconies. Very quiet and great location with a short walk (less than 5 minutes) into town. Highly recommend.

Review 13:Location was perfect, a short walk to town and various beaches. The staff were brilliant, able to cater for our every need, great hosts. Thanks for a great stay Mario and Vasilis.
Review 14:As a solo traveller on crutches the management did everything thing to make me feel comfortable. They arranged for me to have breakfast in my room and also arranged for dinner even though this is not a service they usually provide. I would highly recommend it especially if you're family with young children. All the garden suites are located around the pool,
Review 15:Location, room, breakfast, everything as great as I had hoped! The pool had a nice private feeling to it, relaxed there almost all day. The staff and Mario especially treated me like a VIP, thanks for everything!!

Review 17:Very welcoming & attentive. Great location in proximity to the town beach, but also very quiet & peaceful.
Review 18:Wi-Fi was not too strong.
Review 19:Perfect location, 10 mins from municipal beach, 5 mins from city center. Very clean, the rooms are tidied and the towels are changed every day. Quite pool, even not large. Warm welcome, so kind, friendly and helpful staff, front office manager Mario is super professional and very good person.
Review 20:We spend some wonderful time in Elounda Garden Suites ! We got a warm welcome and the people are so kind there. Perfect location for staying in Elounda. This hotel is near the center, where you can go to the beach, have a drink or dinner in very good restaurant ! Absolutely outstanding breakfast. We'd definitely try it again.
Review 21:A really friendly apartments in a fantastic location - ie a quiet spot off the road, but only 5 mins walk from the beach and facilities of Elounda. The staff were really helpful. Will definitely return.
Review 22:the staff was not as hospitable as i would expect. don t pay more than 100 euros per night. not worth it. we paid 160 and we got a plastic toilet seat for it. and a very average breakfast. also not much of a view.
Review 23:the room was spacious
Review 24:Everything was perfect.
Review 25:They have renovate the building, which combines modern and traditional furnishing and decoration. The restaurant and the pool were relaxing and quite.
Review 26:The location was excellent: a very short walk to the shops, restaurants and beach. The staff were friendly and helpful and the room was spacious and clean. The pool was great with a nice bar and good breakfast available. Will definitely be going back.
Review 27:Too much grey everywhere and dull. Overpriced.
Review 28:Super friendly staff, too much grey and minimalized furniture. A good hotel but overpriced. Nice beds , fast internet and everywhere.
Review 29:Zdecydowanie polecam. Wszystko bardzo nam się podobało. Pokoje były bardzo ładne, nowoczesne i przestronne. Śniadanie było bardzo smaczne, a basen wyjątkowo czysty. Największe wrażenie jednak wywarła na nas obsługa, która była niezwykle pomocna i przemiła. Potrafili załatwić wszystko, bez problemu – co bardzo doceniam podczas urlopu. Ogólnie byliśmy bardzo zadowoleni i w przyszłym roku też planujemy się tu pojawić.
Review 30:Warm, welcoming and sincerely friendly staff. Mario, the manager, is both professionally and personally fantastic. Beautiful, freshly cooked hot breakfasts and wide and varying range of homemade cold breakfast selections with fresh juices, teas and coffees are available every day. The rooms are modern and are immaculately cleaned and tidied each day. The King size bed was the comfiest I've had away from home. The pool area is quiet and relaxing and the bar offers a good selection of drinks, cocktails and freshly prepared snacks. Would recommend EGS to anyone, thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely return.
Review 31:Great friendliness and service mentality of staff - even served drinks and fruit at swimming pool; Excellent spacious apartment and cosy small clean facilities, I loved the swimmng pool.
Review 32:Staff were wonderful, you can not imagine how helpful,friendly and generous they were.All the staff were great and Mario the manager was very friendly and couldn't be more helpful The property was recently renovated ,everything was clean and new and very nicely decorated.Great breakfasts,Good location close to town center and boats. Good swimming pool .
Review 33:Internet connection is very slow. Breakfast is very nice, but, if you prepay it, make sure you don't leave early in the morning, as they start serving it at 8:30, and you won't get a refund. Very basic kitchen facilities.
Review 34:The location is great: very close to the village, a couple minutes walk to the beach. The units are simply but nicely decorated and very functional.
Review 35:A great place to wind down and enjoy the beautiful calm environment. All the staff were great and Mario the manager was very friendly and couldn't be more helpful. The rooms were well equipped and the beds comfy with a mattress topper. Everything was clean and new and very nicely decorated, the pool is dreamy. Access to the small town is very easy in close walking distance with lots to see nearby and day outings. Great breakfast or self cater whichever you prefer. Highly recommend this lovely place.
Review 36:Quiet appartment. Breakfast à la carte, very nice presented. The hotel is situated at 300 metres from the port and centre of Elounda with many restaurants. We made trips to Spinalonga (boat from Plaka at 5 km - read 'The island' of Victoria Hislop before this trip), Agios Nikolaos (10 km), Ierapetra (most southern city of Europe at 40 km), Heraklion (80 km) and Knossos (80 km). As we are joggers we started at the hotel and we did a very nice route of 5 km along the sea and up in the hills. Nice swimmingpool. Friendly staff.
Review 37:Great breakfasts,friendly staff nice pool area sunbeds always available,room was amazing cleaned daily to very high standard nice white fluffy towels bath robes and slippers
Review 38:We wanted self catering and the facilities were very basic including one induction ring which took a bit of getting used to! We resorted to eating out a bit more than planned but the local eateries were good and loved our daughter so all was not lost.
Review 39:Loved the staff Mario was the best! Pool lovely and clean and beds comfortable
Review 40:Property is compact and not as spacious as it appears in the publicity photographs.
Review 41:Good location close to town centre and boats. Clean, modern hotel. Mario the manager was extremely helpful and friendly.
Review 42:Nothing in particular.
Review 43:Nice apartment suites, completely renovated since end 2014, great setting in the resort, walking distance to city centre & harbor, friendly staff.
Review 44:Had a wonderful 3 day break here. The room was spotless, the warm and friendly staff could not do enough for us, from the moment we were greeted on arrival by Alex to the moment we had to say goodbye to SuperMario.
Review 45:Beds in suites were very uncomfortable Plumbing in suites were very noisy as you could hear toilets flushing a taps being turned on in the adjoining suite
Review 46:Good location and pool faciities Good set up for breakfast in Morning with plenty of chose
Review 47:The apartments are very small with limited self catering facilities. We were only staying for one night and could not imagine how a family would manage in the restricted space for a week or more. The continental breakfast was okay as it was self service but each item of a hot breakfast was served separately, (e.g. ham first, then eggs later), and to one person at a time, so breakfast took a long time. For the facilities and standard of accommodation, the cost was very high.
Review 48:The location is very close to Elounda town. The apartments were very clean and the staff were friendly and helpful.
Review 49:Elounda is disappointing but this is most certainly not the hotel's fault. The hotel lacks charm with regards to the decoration, but it's functional and tasteful if not particularly charming.
Review 50:Within it's range, garden sites does the job and more. Excellent points for the lovely staff, the service is without fault, beach towels provided for free upon request, gift bag with lovely Cretan products at the end of the stay. Excellent cleaning service. Quiet location within a loud city, the hotel isn't on the main road preventing any noise. Excellent water pressure in the bathroom.
Review 51:We went to Crete for a week's break and wanted somewhere informal and somewhere we could relax. The Garden Suites were perfect for that. The place is on a small scale which allows the very friendly staff to give a very personalised service. Breakfasts and bar food were excellent and the whole facility is spotless.
Review 52:There is nothing negative to say about Elounda Garden Suites.
Review 53:It's hard to say what we liked best as it was all so good! Right from when we first arrived and Mario was so friendly and helpful....nothing felt like to much trouble to anyone working at Elounda Gardens. Our suite and all the communal areas were spotlessly clean and well maintained. The location is excellent with just the shortest of walks to the harbour and main thoroughfare in Elounda.
Review 54:No problems
Review 55:Excellent breakfast for purchase. Saves buying lunch. Great staff all around. Quite scenic area with great waterfront fish and traditional restaurants.
Review 56:We have just arrived back from This fantastic boutique hotel. From the moment we arrived Mario and Alex couldn't of been more helpful getting us settled in etc The breakfast at this hotel is really fantastic, freshly prepared for you. Freshly squeezed juices every morning which I have never had else where and a fantastic selection of homemade jams. The fruit is prepared beautifully Strawberrys hulled etc And a different homemade cake everyday for after breakfast The lady made a Tiramisu one morning and it was the best one I have ever tasted bearing in mind this is not an Italian restaurant !!! The location is perfect,1 min if that into town and not hilly at all as we had two prams so was perfect As you leave the hotel you feel like your in a real Greek small town With children going to school etc Then 10 seconds later your in elounder It's great. We had 2 young children with us and they were made to feel really welcome The place is spotless and the pool is pristine This is a small hotel perfect for couples or small families looking for a quiet relaxing time I really can't stress how good this place is and writing this will probably make more people go but don't spoil it for us please !!!!
Review 57:Everything! The staff were amazing nothing was too much trouble. Location of hotel couldn't have been better it was so central to the resort yet so peaceful.
Review 58:The location was perfect, a couple of minutes walk from the centre of the town and the water. The staff were lovely and really accommodating and the apartment was really clean
Review 59:Cannot find a single fault.
Review 60:the warm welcome and standard of service was exceptional. The friendliest of atmospheres and the staff are nothing short of amazing. We will go back without hesitation and miss the place and people here already after being home 2 days.
Review 61:everything was perfect beyond expectations. The room was very clean, the stuff and the service was excelent. the breakfast amazing, very tasteful. Taste the wines. Totaly recomend it.
Review 62:Alex, Christina and their team made us feel like at home, we have rarely been treated so well. They were always there in case we needed anything: starting from help with the suitcases to welcome and farewell drinks, to great advice regarding day tours. The hotel is brandnew and very clean, with a nice pool and garden design. Excellent for families with children, as closed off area and garden. 3 min. to stores, 5 min. to the beach - we can highly recommend.
Review 63:nothing here.
Review 64:The hotel and service are of the highest quality. You will relax and recharge you batteries. I only regret that my stay was short. I will definitely come back. Big thanks to the management. You are outstanding. Thank you.
Review 65:Very happy with our 5 night stay at Elounda gardens , everything about the place was perfect without being over the top.Very stylish very friendly and the breakfast was wonderful . Position was great being a 5 minute walk to the beach and restaurants.
Review 66:The only thing I could say was to improve how they ran breakfast, it took too long. We only had breakfast once.
Review 67:The location was in a quiet village, loads of restaurants , close to the beach. Had everything. the staff were friendly and helpful. They cleaned the unit every day, clean towels everyday. Superb stay. 5*****
Review 68:Can't think of anything!
Review 69:Quiet and privacy, yet within a stone's throw of the centre of the village with all it's tavernas and bars as well as the beach and harbour. The staff were lovely, very helpful and keen to help.
Review 70:We stayed in Elounda from 4th to 11th October 2014. We were very impressed with our apartment. It was a decent size and was very clean. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The whole place appeared to have been recently built/renovated and the pool and bar area were also very nice. The location was also great as it was a very short walk from the centre of Elounda.
Review 71:Nothing, everything just perfect!
Review 72:Extraordinary helpful manager regarding hints and recommendations for restaurants, beaches, activities. Warm welcome and atmosphere, very friendly staff. Always an extra to feel at home and surprise the guests, like E. G. Bottle of free wine, fruits and water in the fridge, a warm chocolate cookie for breakfast, a local collected herbs tea as goodbye present Clean and stylish suits, calm area of sleeping well.
Review 73:The stuff were extremely friendly. Breakfast was very well prepared and very tasty. Pool was nice too. The hotel location is very good too and allows very easy access to the town centre.
Review 74:I have recently been going to very large resort hotels on the North coast but last May stayed a week at Elounda Garden Suites. It was a fantastic experience. Elounda is a very pleasant little town on the northern/east coast with lots of bars and cafes in the harbor and then round a coastal walk there is a public sandy beach with more restaurants. Last week I visited this hotel again. The welcome was warm and friendly. Our Suite 203 was clean and nice with a comfortable bed, living room, bathroom, kitchenette, coffee tray, fridge, Air/con, a brand new TV with satellite channels and free wifi with great signal . Suite 203 offers a good size terrace in front of the living room with view over the pool and a balcony out of the bedroom with garden and mountain view. In the pool/ snack bar you can have great breakfast or a snack during the day. I would recommend it. The food is good and the prices very good. There is a nice pool and a nice area around with umbrellas and sun beds to relax in the sun. The village and its restaurants and beach are in walking distance. Good places to eat (locals go there too) are Nikos (fish), Anemomylos and Paparouna. Booked to go again direct with Alex next June and looking forward to it!
Review 75:Good sized rooms, clean, comfortable. Friendly service, great location close to town. Left water and wine in room. Noticed it was my birthday and provided birthday cake and sparkling wine.
Review 76:The staff were amazing, and incredibly kind. The cakes made by Katerina were positively delicious. Breakfast was worth every penny. Phillip, the bartender, gave us excellent recommendations for dinner in town. The cleaning crew zipped through our room, we never saw them or even heard a knock, but our room got clean the second we stepped out. Wifi coverage was more than most places. We had great access from our room to the pool and bar areas. All in all, the staff made our stay in Elounda pretty darn marvelous! I would recommend them to anyone planning a trip there.
Review 77:You would be hard pushed to find a better located accommodation in Elounda. We had a great two week stay. Lovely room with two balconies and all we needed for a holiday that ticked the boxes for us. Breakfast recommended.
Review 78:One of the members of our group is a coeliac - we let the staff know before we arrived and while we were there, they provided a loaf of gluten free bread to make sure that she had things she could eat. This kind of personal service isn't always provided. The rooms were lovely, with a bedroom and living room (including 2 hobs, a fridge and a sink). Ours also had 2 balconies (one with 2 sun loungers on it) and most of the rooms we saw had balcony space. The pool area was lovely with a good mix of sun and shade available. Elounda itself is a lovely town. Sandy beach within easy walking distance. The shops were good, especially a local greengrocer, which was very good value for money.
Review 79:Kitchen didn't really have any pots or pans to be able to actually do any cooking but that really wasn't a problem for us. Cleaning a little more attention to detail mirror over sink was often left uncleaned otherwise very clean. Bath gel sometimes ran low and had to ask for extra.
Review 80:The hotel was eager to meet all our requirements. They were friendly and the little treats were an unexpected and a pleasant surprise. Breakfasts were abundant even though a platter of fresh fruit would have been nice. The location was perfect and peaceful. Beautiful island and wonderful people. I would not hesitate to recommend Elounda Garden Suites. Many thanks to everyone who made our stay so memorable.
Review 81:Very clean, quiet at night so slept well but still a close 5 minute walk to town and restaurants. Breakfast at hotel was excellent. Didn't use the pool but it looked beautiful and seemed very popular. The "welcome" fruit plate and wine was most appreciated!
Review 82:Nothing!
Review 83:We really enjoyed our stay at this place! Our studio was very clean, well equiped with everything you need. Location is perfect, near the beach and the port. The owner is really so kind and helpful. He gives very nice tips and makes sure that everyone is happy :-) really a pleasant stay, to recommend!
Review 84:Room was great, pool and breakfast area very nice, staff was excellent with attention to detail. Also it is within walking distance to the town centre. Rooms are very well equipped. The welcome pack of a bottle of wine, water and fruits was a very nice gesture. Finally the breakfast was fantastic and being from Crete i can also say it was true Cretan taste.
Review 85:My only complaint is that we only stayed there one night.
Review 86:I loved the fact that the hotel was located a little up the street and away from the more touristy main road of Elounda. Elounda Graden Suites has a nice layout and is decorated in subtle colors and with impeccable taste. Original artwork from a talented Greek artist is to be found throughout the hotel. We received an amazing service from the entire staff, however Alex Lekkas went far beyond what one could possibly expect in the service he provided. Thank you...! :o)
Review 87:Alex, Katarina and the other persons working here, were very warm, caring and very serviceminded. Throughout many years in hotels I have never experinced the like. The breakfast was good, the rooms were nice, I had some good nights sleep. My own morninggown, presents in the fridge, and whereelse do they play classic music in the evening. Relaxing. Alex also booked Georigi (masseur and fysiotherapist) for an hour rakotherapy on my balcony. Recommendably. I will, no doubt be back. Thank you:-)
Review 88:We were very impressed with the modern, clean and well equipped apartment. It was cleaned throughout every day and having fresh towels daily was lovely. Alex and his team were friendly and a fountain of local knowledge.
Review 89:For us it worked perfectly but one should keep in mind that the hotel is quite small and the swimming pool as well. Not suitable for people that are looking for an all-inclusive vacation.
Review 90:The service was great! The hotel staff, led by Alex, were kind and helpful. The apartment was spacious and comfy; the suite had a living room, a small kitchen, a balcony and a large bed room, all of this completely air-conditioned. Most importantly its CLEAN. the breakfast was very good, even serving fresh orange juice every morning. The location was excellent, near the town center and the beach but still quiet and there is plenty of free parking.
Review 91:Great location and view, excellent value for the money. A balanced combination between privacy, quality service and helpful interaction with a polite, efficient and discreet management and staff.
Review 92:I expected the room to be a bit more luxurious for the price we paid. The bed was too soft for my liking and most of the furniture were from IKEA. Nothing bad with IKEA furniture its just that I expected more for 130€ per night.
Review 93:The staff were excellent! Very pet friendly (if you are a responsible owner). Very close to Elounda town. The room was spacious and very clean. Breakfast is nothing fancy but very tasty (homemade marmelade). Nice TV and cable channels (rare for Crete). Free WiFi no hussle.
Review 94:I was disappointed with Elounda as a town. I did not feel that I was in Greece. The town beach was horrible especially for Greece! We had to go to the next town and beyond to find good beaches.
Review 95:Hotel had great location within walking distance to town shops and restaurants. The hotel staff was superb. The breakfast very European and dilicious. Phillip was at our disposal 24\7.
Review 96:Noise from pool - but this was only from two families and they should have been told to keep noise down. Had to ask for kitchen pots as none there but they did provide them very quickly.
Review 97:Clean accommodation with towels, sheets, changed regularly. Nice size balconies, one with sunbeds. Lovely, friendly, caring staff.
Review 98:Excellent welcome by Alex and Philip. Unbelievable hospitality with quick reaction to buy 2 microwaves the next day.Recommended restaurants were excellent. Remembered my daughter's difficult name and she was very happy. Fantastic stay.
Review 99:BREAKFAST:personalized 5 star meal LOCATION: right in the center just 3 minutes from sandy beach suitable for our children CLEANLINESS: shining STAFF: made us feel at home THANK YOU!!!
Review 100:The apartment rooms are quite small for a family of 4 with older children and the kitchen facilities, whilst OK for breakfast; would be limited if you wanted to cook a dinner. Although, it was not a problem for us, because we ate out.
Review 101:The hotel staff were really excellent - very friendly and helpful. There were always little freebies, from drinks to cake; which is a really nice touch. The pool was great, our girls really loved it. The location was excellent, near the centre of Elounda, yet quiet. The rooms were cleaned to a high standard every day, with clean towels provided daily. We had a really enjoyable stay.
Review 102:The hotel is in a really peaceful place, near Elounda center (2min by walk). The staff is very helpful and available all day long. Thanks you for all! It was perfect!
Review 103:Attitude in the Bank in Elounda. Said I couldn't find out thebalance on my cash card when I could (as Katerina proved for me). Tripback on shuttle bus: was on it for 3 hours as driver went round Malia 3times trying to find some people who had obviously taken a taxi to theairport instead. (Told that cost of taxi from Elounda is 90 euros.)Airport facilities need to be improved especially food, sign posting forlanes etc and training of staff in assisting passengers.
Review 104:Wow! What wasn't there to like about Elounda Garden Suites? Iarrived at 3.15 am and walked down the concrete path, lit with gardenlights. Everywhere else was in darkness and so quiet. No-one around andthen reached the swimming pool where Alex met me. He runs the Suites andtold me I had been upgraded. My flat was looking right across the pool.It was great! Complimentary fruit, wine and bottle of water in fridge.Everything I needed was contained there and although I was going to cook(and asked for saucepans etc which were provided), I didn't becausethere are so many lovely restaurants in Elounda. I was there for 1 week.In that time I was looked after by the staff who were so kind. Nothingwas too much trouble. They helped me with various problems, eg with mycash card (as the bank was extremely discourteous) and assisted me ingetting a good deal on a car. I didn't eat in their restaurant, buthad breakfasts there which were made to order. Anything you wanted, youcould ask for. They were enormous portions and always, which I had totake away, Katerina's sweet of the day! Her specialities: gorgeous!The suites are only 5 mins out of the centre. All the shops are thereand restaurants you could wish for. I ate at Arodamos, a small Greekrestaurant just down from the suites: lovely in the garden. Also atParadoslaico, which is on the corner of the main car park in the centre.They were so helpful in telling me the size of the dishes for me todecide. The Sea Bream was so delicious. It fell off the bone. Also ateat Vradis's Tavern, which seems to be floating in the harbour. Goodfood but very filling there. And at Kalidon restaurant in centre. Ihired a car for 3 days for a very good deal and used it to visitIrapetra. Stunning scenery on the way. Visited Turkish sector whenthere. Visited Agios Nickolaos on second day of having car. Was wiltingand found a lovely restaurant in the back street: Pelagoes.
Review 105:Great staff. could not do enough for us, really friendly and helpful throughout our stay. Happy to help us organise trips and excursions and helped us with anything we needed. Lovely stylish hotel, very chilled out... rooms comfy and very clean, with comfy beds, quiet and peaceful around pool with nice sun-beds, and a lovely pool.
Review 106:Nothing during our stay. But, although the 6 or 7 designated parking spaces were more than sufficient during our stay, it may require parking along the street when fully booked in high season.
Review 107:Where ever you go, if you are made to feel really welcome, the place is likely to stay in your memory for a long time. The hosts, and certainly Alex Lekkas, at Elounda Garden Suites have certainly achieved that for us! To start with you get an email from Alex confirming your booking and adding driving instructions to the hotel. Upon arrival (early June) we got a very spacious apartment on the first floor with 2 balconies overlooking the pool, the village, and a bit of the sea in the distance. Plus advice for an excellent place to dine that night. A quiet location at a distance of about 200 meters from the center of Elounda, the local beach and the boat to Spinalonga. Excellent swimming pool and nice bar area, good wifi. Apparently, we were the first in this particular apartment after the renewal/refurbishment and a minor technical problem was immediately resolved. Great advice was given on sights to see, restaurants, and places to go to. When one of us was not well, our hosts prepared a special meal for us (free of charge as it turned out later), which - perception or not - did indeed help to speed up recovery! We selected this place based on the high valuation, reviews and detailed description on Booking.com - reality exceeded our expectation ! Finally after our return we received another nice email from Alex - another example for others on how to delight the customer !! [ We would therefore give it a rating of 9,8 ]
Review 108:Everything. Amazing hospitality! All reviews that we read about Elounda Garden Suite were accurate. We had a great time. Stayed 2 nights,not long enough. Well done to the management and staff. Will definitely recommend to friends.
