We had a very pleasant one week stay here. Even though I am not a resort person, I don't have any negative comments about here besides the food options maybe. Staff is very professional and friendly. We got an upgrade which was a very pleasant surprise. Rooms are spacious and luxurious. There are no animation teams and water slides which is a big plus. Beach side is great. It is family oriented so can be boring for young people looking for fun and adventure. 15 min walk to the cute town of Plaka.

We recently stayed at Domes of Elounda as a family and had a wonderful holiday. From the moment we arrived, the service was exceptional – every member of staff was friendly, attentive and knowledgeable, always happy to help with recommendations or answer questions.
As a coeliac traveller, I was particularly impressed by how well the hotel catered for gluten-free dietary requirements. Staff were knowledgeable about coeliac disease and took care to ensure safe dining options were available throughout our stay, which made a huge difference and allowed us to relax and enjoy our meals.
What made it even more memorable was the atmosphere created by the staff throughout the resort. Everyone was so welcoming and friendly, taking the time to interact with guests of all ages and making people feel genuinely valued. Whether it was a cheerful greeting, a chat with the children, or simply remembering guests from day to day, their warmth helped create a relaxed and happy environment.
The resort is incredibly family-friendly. Our children especially loved the entertainment on the Wednesday, which felt refreshing compared to the usual evening discos and shows found at many resorts. The bubble show was a real highlight and something a little different that kept the children thoroughly entertained.
A special mention also goes to the Kids Club and to Eleni and her team, who were absolutely fantastic. It was lovely to see activities that were not only fun but genuinely educational. Our children particularly loved learning about Greek mythology, and it was wonderful to see them so engaged and excited to come back each day to share what they had learned. The care, enthusiasm and creativity of the team really stood out and added so much to our holiday.
The beach was another standout feature. It was small, sheltered and felt very safe for children, allowing us to relax while they played and swam. It created a lovely family atmosphere and never felt overcrowded.
A special mention must also go to Makris restaurant, where the food was simply divine. Every meal we had there was beautifully presented, full of flavour and among the best food we experienced during our stay.
One thing that stood out was the number of guests we met who had returned multiple times. After our experience, it’s easy to understand why so many people choose to come back year after year.
The only small area for improvement would be the children’s menus. While there was plenty that our children enjoyed, the options felt quite repetitive across the different restaurants. It would also have been nice to see vegetables included more regularly with children’s meals.
Overall, Domes of Elounda delivered a fantastic family holiday with excellent service, outstanding food, excellent coeliac-friendly catering, a brilliant Kids Club, and a safe, child-friendly environment. We would happily recommend it and can certainly see why so many guests return time and again.

My stay at Domes of Elounda was, without exaggeration, one of the best hotel experience I have ever had.
What truly stands out is the exceptional level of service. From the moment of check-in to breakfast, dinner, and the bar, the entire team was absolutely wonderful. Everyone was kind, welcoming, and genuinely eager to make our stay as special and enjoyable as possible. You truly feel that unique Greek hospitality, which makes you want to come back and relive those beautiful moments.
The food at the buffet, both for breakfast and dinner, was outstanding, with excellent quality and a great variety of options. I would especially like to highlight the incredible desserts prepared by the chef — truly some of the best hotel desserts I have ever tried.
Another highlight was the private beach with sunbeds right in front of the sea — beautifully maintained, very clean, and perfect for relaxing.
The view of Spinalonga is simply breathtaking. Whether enjoying the sea during the day or having a cocktail in the evening, it is something you never get tired of.
Overall, I would like to sincerely thank the entire team for such a wonderful holiday experience! Everything was truly exceptional, and I would absolutely return again — 100%!

This is a very basic 4 star hotel. The pools and beach area are the highlights, and the food included in the meal rate was up to par, however improvements need to be made to truly consider the a 5 star and the value for the cost is not there. I would advise this for families only unless you are willing to stay in the adults only area, but know that the property caters more towards kids and families.

We had a wonderful stay from start to finish. The location is truly paradise, ideally situated between Elounda and Plaka.
Our one-bedroom suite was spacious, comfortable, and offered breathtaking views. We especially enjoyed the breakfasts, which were both high-quality and varied. The Vilbrequin beach, the outdoor gym, and the overall atmosphere made our experience even more special.
A special mention goes to the staff for their kindness, and particularly to “Butterfly,” who took great care of our suite with a constant smile.
We will definitely return and highly recommend Domes of Elounda. Thank you for an unforgettable stay!
