Elounda Peninsula All Suite Hotel, Six Senses Spa

The hotel and grounds were absolutely lovely! We had a room with our own pool and 2 floors - very luxurious! There were two private beaches on the property with a very relaxing beach bar with servers bringing your food and drink orders right to your beach chair. The only thing we didn't like was that you had to make reservations for dinners. We are more of a "go whenever we feel like it" couple, so didn't like the time constraints and lack of a more casual place to eat on property as the beach bar was not open for dinner. Hotel was situated near a lot of places to eat off property, but it was not walkable to get off property - had to call a taxi which the hotel was happy to help with. The staff was very polite and helpful. Very upscale and nice place!

very friendly service and high quality resort. maybe food prices in the restaurants on the high side.

Elounda Peninsula Resort is our all time favorite place to stay. This was our third trip to Crete since and our third time at this fabulous resort. Elounda Peninsula really strives to give their guests a wonderful experience and we see this by the many little extras and changes the resort has done over the years. Each time we visit we are amazed, and the next time we visit, we are even more amazed! We stayed in the two floor Peninsula Collection Suite which was luxurious, comfortable and perfect for us. We loved relaxing in our private pool while admiring the beautiful view. I must mention how very comfortable the bed and bedding were. We slept so well and woke up refreshed and ready for the day. Since our last stay two new restaurant venues were added along with menu changes in the existing ones. This along with fantastic room service made for many delicious dining options. There is plenty to do at the resort including sunning at the great beach or pool and swimming in the sea. Although we were a couple, we did notice lots for kids to do here as well. In addition my husband was able to enjoy the on site golf course twice! I enjoyed a massage and facial at Six Senses Spa. Truly a marvelous spa which gives an aura of relaxation from the minute you enter. The ginger tea afterwards is just one of the many little extras you will find at this resort. Above all though, it is the people here who make this resort the fantastic place it is. The cheerful greetings and good conversations give a personal touch that is very uniquely Elounda Peninsula. Not only the friendliness of all but the knowledge of the area and the willingness to help was so appreciated. I even appreciated those patiently listening and helping with my very rudimentary Greek. Elounda Peninsula truly showcases Cretan hospitality and Greek Philoxenia! We can’t wait to return in 2025!

From the mommy you step into the resort until your departure, it is one of the most incredible experiences. The resort is beautiful and first class all of the way. The suite was two floors with our own pool. We also ate at two of the restaurants; the Italian and Japanese, both outstanding meals.

If you've never been to Crete, the Elounda Peninsula Resort & Spa alone is reason enough to visit. This sprawling paradise not only sets the standard for luxury resorts but also for hospitality and service. Every staff member, from Stavros and Panos to Klesei, Maria, Jason, Stravola, Alexandros, Nikolas, Giorgios, and Vasia, exuded the kind of warmth and professionalism that turns a stay into an unforgettable experience. The spa is a Six Senses-branded oasis that elevates wellness to an art form. With top-notch therapists and outstanding amenities, it's a sanctuary for both body and soul that stands head and shoulders above most spa experiences. When it comes to dining, every restaurant on the property is a culinary gem. I had the pleasure of visiting during the opening week of their newest addition, SUMOSAN. Tucked away in a quiet alcove of the hotel, this Japanese restaurant offers not just incredible food but an intimate and serene a**osphere as well. However, the crown jewel has to be IL BORRO TUSCAN BISTRO, owned by the world-renowned Ferragamo family. Their truffle pizza alone could easily claim the title of the best in the world. The revamped pool area is another highlight, its seamless landscaping transforming it into a genuine escape. Elies restaurant comes alive at night and is an experience not to be missed—just make sure to pre-order the lobster for the freshest dining experience. Even room service maintains the high culinary standards set by the restaurants, although I would advise against the poke bowls at the pool bar (however the Smoothies are amazing). What sets Elounda Peninsula Resort & Spa apart is its sense of community. Spread across multiple properties, you never feel isolated but always secure and well-taken care of. Whether you opt for a leisurely walk along the gorgeous grounds or a quick golf cart ride, you're always just a moment away from another delightful experience. I sincerely hope this resort gains affiliation with a larger global chain brand or even becomes a Six Senses property in its own right. It deserves a spot on the World's Top Luxury Hotels list without question. It's easily the best hotel in Crete, a top contender in Europe, and outstanding on a global scale. Best regards, Mark Mariano
