Amazing views and warm welcomes are definitely trademarks of the Elounda Palm. Surrounded by colourful flowers, designed in traditional Cretan colors and well tended gardens you will soon fall head first in to the relaxed atmosphere of the hotel. They think this is a deliberate ploy of the owners to keep you coming back.

Elounda itself tries to avoid the loud and flashy nightlife, opting for the more reserved approach of a few good restaurants, and friendly taverns. The fact that a short Taxi ride will deliver you to the bright lights of Agios Nikolaos, no doubt influenced this decision.

Elounda Palm is waiting for you in its green flowery gardens, to offer you comfortable and relaxing vacations in a nice and calm environment. The friendly atmosphere, the excellent service, the nice music nights guarantee you relaxation and amusement.

The picturesque Elounda Palm Hotel is situated in a special area of Crete, the beautiful Elounda Bay. Built in a scenic location set in attractive gardens with view of the famous Gulf of Elounda.
