Elounda Gulf Sunrise Villa

The main staircase, however, is not for children, the elderly, or the faint-hearted! Antonis, We enjoyed our stay but I’m not sure if you are well-served by the property management company. There are lots of scuff marks on the walls (at the beginning of the holiday season), there was urine in one of the toilets, and Vassia was quite testy (borderline rude) to me over the phone. Having said that, and knowing what I now know, I would rent from you again! We may be back next May.

The architecture was amazing and we loved all of the cool cacti around the property as well as the beautiful outdoor space. Antonis was very helpful with check in and offered us a late checkout because of our flight delay. The location was amazing, we loved eloundas and loved how the house was tucked away yet not far away from the town.

The reason we gave the Villa 4 stars instead of 5 is because of the bathrooms. It is not shown in the listing but 2 out of the 3 bathrooms have toilets in the showers. Two showers did not have proper shower heads (just a handle) that you had to hold while showering. One of the bedrooms had a bathroom in it with no door so there was no privacy when using the restroom if the room was being shared. Additionally, none of the showers had doors or curtains so water was getting everywhere. There were also no instructions on how to use the showers and the master bedroom shower was difficult to work.

Even though the weather wasn’t always great and we spent quite some time indoors, this house made it absolutely perfect. The heating (which is quite rare in Crete!) made everything so cozy and comfortable.

The house itself is stunning – beautifully designed, incredibly tasteful, and spotlessly clean. You can feel the attention to detail everywhere.

The sauna was a real highlight, and whenever the sun came out, we enjoyed every minute on the amazing terrace.

A special thank you to the hosts: incredibly responsive, caring, and proactive. During a sandstorm, everything was immediately taken care of and cleaned – truly impressive service.

The location is also lovely – small, charming, and with fantastic fish restaurants.

We felt completely at home and are already looking forward to coming back in November!

The house is really perfect. I would say the house needs to be in an architecture guide. We are from the first. moment. The different views of the bay are unforgettable. Really very successful architecture.

Amazing location and a beautifully designed villa, even the small details and a very available host! It is also important to note that if you have someone in the group who needs a handrail to go down the stairs, there is no such thing in the villa and the entrance door is on the upper floor, so it is important to take into account.

It was like living in a Grand Design house. Uber modern brutalist style Whoever designed this building has amazing taste and every detail has been designed with careful thought making a home that works perfectly and looks beautiful. Couldn’t stop taking pictures of everything. The huge amount of glass takes full advantage of the gorgeous uninterrupted views of the sea, islands and Elounda. Such a luxurious and comfortable place to have a family holiday. Very clean Very lovely Easy walk into town Host was so welcoming and responded quickly to any question we had and was super helpful .

very elegant villa with great view

nice

Well-equipped kitchen and clean and nice. Extremely friendly reception and quick support for questions. Highly recommended.

We spent the last 4 nights of our 3 week vacation and it was our highlight. The lap pool is 30 meters and a essy way to cool down.

Upon arriving in beautiful Elounda, the houses' first impression is stunning. The pool, proximity to the town, beach, and restaurants are perfect. However, we chose this house for the kitchen, so i can prepare meals as a chef, and the sauna. The kitchen was barely stocked with less than adequate cooking utensils, pots, pans, and expired spices. And the sauna NEVER worked. (Techs finally came out, but I didn't rent this house to sit around while they come and go to get parts for "all in" 1000 EUROS per night!). But, the management host was responsive to all my concerns. Its just that for less than 200-300 EUROS, the house could have been a dream.

Beautiful property, nothing was too much trouble. Perfect location, we were worried about the floating stairs with twin 8 year olds but it was fine. Elounda is a beautiful town full of lovely local Tavernas and bars.

Great location within easy walking distance to village where there are a lot of restaurants. Very high spec villa and Vassia the owner couldn’t have done more to help our stay be a memorable one.

The location was fantastic and the view was even better. The house was clean and very modern. we truly enjoyed our stay in Elounda. Vaisa was terrific in giving us local recommendations for restaurants.
