Bedtime...

Bedrooms 
18 luxury villas with a private pool and jacuzzi, and ten suites with use of the main pool.

Special features
Spa villas have a private pool with integral jacuzzi on the terrace, as well as a fully equipped kitchen. Both suites and villas have a whirlpool bath, walk-in shower, robes and slippers, CD/DVD players and a flatscreen TV.

Pillow Talk
Splash out on a villa for the max in privacy and superlative views. Suites lower down the hill offer a more affordable alternative.

Eat & Drink

Dining in
Start the evening with a cocktail at Argonauts poolside lounge bar before dining at the boutique hotel’s lantern-lit Argo restaurant – just the place to enjoy the chef’s creative take on Greek staples such as roast lamb, skewered chicken and  fish soup. Delicious and beautifully presented desserts complete the picture.

Argo has a well deserved following from guests staying at other top Elounda hotels, and a Greek meze is served on some nights. Tables on the upstairs terrace (just six) are the most sought after for dinner.

Breakfast
Breakfast is served until midday, in the restaurant or at your villa.
 
Room service
Available 24 hours.

Activities

See & Do
There are superb beaches in the vicinity, though you may find it hard to drag yourselves away from your villa’s private pool. Staff are happy to arrange excursions around the island and boat trips (with a picnic lunch) for swimming in deserted coves. You’ll need a car to explore the area under your own steam.
 
Spa
Relax and recharge at the hotel’s Elixir Spa, with its outdoor heated jacuzzi, steam room and massage room. Treatments available include body massage, aromatherapy, reflexology, facials and pedicures. 
 
Diary Dates

Elounda town stages various cultural events and even a Fish night.
