Near Elounda harbor

Elounda Krini Hotel is a 15-minute walk from the town center. It is located in a quiet, family environment 10km from the town of Agios Nikolaos, overlooking the Cretan Sea and the Spinalonga Island. The sea is 500 meters away, and the picturesque village of Elounda with its harbor is 700 m away. Spinalonga Beach is 4.5 km away, while Spinalonga fortress is 5 km away. Guests can visit the less touristy fishing village of Plaka (a 12-minute drive) or the developed Agios Nikolaos (a 16-minute drive). A bus stop outside the hotel makes regular trips to both.

Staff at the 24-hour front desk can provide information on boat trips to Spinalonga Island. A small business center offers free printing. Free private parking is available.

“What stands out here is the staff's dedication; their attentiveness shapes the experience. It's a family-friendly base near Elounda's center, balancing local charm with a relaxed atmosphere. I like that you can expect thoughtful touches, like Cretan farewell gifts.”
