Save to favouritesPrintMailElounda Gulf VillasThe privacy of a deluxe villa and the services of a top hotel – it’s a wonderfully indulgent combination and a rare one. It does exist though, above the bit-too-big resorts overlooking Mirabello bay, in the exclusive enclave of Elounda Gulf Villas. Its low-profile policy and discreet staff make it popular with international dignitaries and celebrities searching to escape the limelight, at least for a few days. And it is family-run – designed by dad Dimitris, run by daughter Charitini and presided over with perfection by mother Anna. The [r:GR044:suites and villas] are swish – the marble-lined bathrooms have jacuzzis and trompe l'oeil ceilings, the sofas are covered with Italian fabrics, there are scatterings of antiques about the parquet floors. All the villas have private pools (the best ones with infinity cliff-hangers); the suites share a seawater pool with Jacuzzi and a cascading waterfall. A butler will bring your morning juice to glass-fronted breakfast rooms with, needless to say, stunning views. There’s also a poolside bar-restaurant serving creative Mediterranean cuisine and late-night cocktails, massages and beauty treatments at the spa, so not much reason to leave Elounda Gulf Villas once you arrive.
