Elounda Island Villas is a pioneer of its kind, being the first hotel in Greece to ever use exclusively renewable energy sources. A photovoltaic system was installed in 1996, which has since then been regularly upgraded, successfully providing electrical energy to all the houses and the common areas of the cluster. Hot water is also supplied by solar panels. Recently, driven by our need for more environmentally friendly solutions, we installed a biological wastewater system thanks to which water used in kitchens and bathrooms is not wasted and can instead be safely reused for the gardens.

All holiday apartments have windows, front and back, which provide natural air circulation. Furthermore, ceiling and wall fans can be used in case of high temperatures. It should be noted that, due to the Solar Energy System, air conditioning cannot be used in the cluster. Therefore, guests are kindly requested to understand that the lack of A/C is consistent with the hotel’s eco-friendly mission statement, aiming to contribute to environmental protection as much as possible.

Guest Reviews

Lasithi

Lasithi is the eastern of the 4 counties on the island of Crete. It is renowned for its mild climate and its overlapping combinations of morphology, from the green plateaus up in the mountains, to the majestic coastline on the north around the Gulf of Mirabello and the south east arid part that dips in to the heart of the Mediterranean Sea.

Elounda

Elounda is located at a cove on the coastline of the Mirabello Gulf. As it is overlooking the north east part of Crete and the beautiful deep blue waters of the Aegean Sea, it also engulfs the peninsula of the Island of Elounda or Kolokytha as it is alternatively known. On the one end of the longish peninsula there is the sunken city of ancient Olous…and on the other the remains of Spinalonga, a Venetian fortress that carries prior and later local history.

Kolokytha

Kolokytha is another name for the peaceful Spinalonga peninsula that stretches within the gulf of Elounda. A beautiful and protected spot, with walking paths and beaches all around, monuments from ancient and most recent cultures. It offers a relaxing and soothing effect to its visitors and also to the biodiversity it sustains. Not inhabited at the moment, yet it has been at the past and still now some very few buildings exist and are maintained.
