Agios Nikolaos resorts

Elounda Heights was well balanced all around and “just right.” The hotel is close to the main town but up a steep hill. This is really the only negative thing about the place, as it is about 600 steps to get up to the top, but we didn’t have any challenges from this. The reward is that the hotel is quiet, secluded, and enjoys spectacular views of the town and bay. Each room in this property is a bit different so we can only comment on our own, which was directly across from the pool and enjoyed an adjacent private terrace up a small set of stairs with private sunbeds and a bistro table and chair set for two. A one-bedroom with a stall shower and kitchenette, it was perfect for our five night stay and would have been comfortable for longer trips. The pool area is small but was never crowded and has a great pool cafe where breakfast is served in the morning. Breakfast was included and we found it quite good with their own pastries, breads, jams and a choice of main course (egg dishes, yogurt or fruit plates). It was perfect for us. The pool cafe turns into a bar and snack bar for the afternoons. The hotel features a main bar and dining room, for meals at a la carte. Staff service we found to be exceptional and friendly. In addition to English, French is also widely spoken at the hotel, which was not the case everywhere on the island. We found the hotel a perfect mix and good value for money. We will come back, we will bring friends, and we will stay longer.

Incredible family vacation experience. Beautifully decorated and welcoming hotel. Family ownership by mother and daughter duo is setting the GOLD standard in hospitality and service
