We had room 12 at the rear with 2 balconies, one gave us a fantastic view of the mountains and from the other (with a bit of neck stretching) we had a side sea view. The room was basic but very clean, previous reviewers have commented on the level of cleaning and I must agree on that point, the bed linen wasn’t changed at all in our week and the bins were only emptied twice. However that didn’t impact on us whatsoever.
We took a boat trip from the Harbour (10 Eur each) to Spinalonga, yes! I’ve read the book. However apart from that we didn’t venture far, which means we will have to return for 2 weeks next time.
The Lena apartments are located right on the beachfront about 5 minutes walk from the harbour, there were plenty of sunbeds around the pool, but for 2 Eur each you could have one on the beach right at the waters edge.
We ate out every night and did not experience any bad meals/poor service; our favourite restaurant was The Ferryman, lovely location, nice food what more can you ask?
Elounda was a lovely resort, fairly quiet, a variety of nationalities and the people were so friendly. If you do visit the Lena I would recommend Yiannis’s barbecue which is held on a Sunday evening, well worth it.
All in all we had a fantastic 7 days, met some really lovely people and look forward to returning. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
