Vasilopoulo Vacations from $1,831

My wife and I had our honeymoon at Eliros Mare. It was our first time in Greece and we really enjoyed our time. We chose to go with the all inclusive option and the room with a private pool for our stay. The only negative about our experience was that it was not a true all inclusive experience. A large portion of drinks, menu items and room service came at an extra charge. Entertainment staff were kind and made our time during the day enjoyable with beach volleyball and other pool/beach activities. Food service at breakfast, lunch and dinner was okay as the servers would rush to take your initial drink order but wouldn’t return unless they were waived down or at your table to clear plates. We enjoyed our room as it was spacious and had the private pool which was nice to have. Overall, we enjoyed our experience and would return to Eliros but would rethink the all inclusive option and most likely opt for a regular room without a private pool as we don’t believe it was utilized enough for the extra cost.

5 stars out of 5 is not enough bacause of the great people working there ! And the hotel food was one of the best we had in the entire trip. Would come here again every year if I could

The Best hotel and superb service, staff really go the extra mile to make it a holiday to remember. Great dining options and amenities. Beautiful hotel too and surrounding area

Lovely rooms, very clean, great food and lovely staff. On the downside the drinks were pretty average. Coffee not great, wine not great, soft drinks varied, spirits weak. Also found it very odd for a supposed 5 star to have to pay extra for things like pool towels, some “premium” sun beds and bottled water? Not expected. The dining areas could really do with better lighting and some added character - they feel a bit canteen-like. However the food was really very good. Fresh, varied and tasty with lots of options. Deserts were also excellent. And the staff are great all round. It’s a quiet hotel, peaceful, with little or no evening entertainment even in peak summer. But if that’s what you like this is hard to beat. We walked into the village one evening which was so nice with a few good local restaurants, and only took 10/15 mins to walk. The grounds, pool area and rooms are so well kept and can’t be faulted. We were in the swim up rooms which were very lovely with great views. Best of both worlds. Overall I would definitely recommend it, and would certainly go back.

i Cannot say enough good things about Domus Renier. The staff was always friendly and extremely helpful for all needs- including meeting us in the outside parking area and taking our bags to the hotel. The owner, Lista, was exceptionally kind and thoughtful and spent time with us explaining the hotel’s history as well as being truly interested in our experiences of Crete and the Hotel. We think Crete is a terrific and the Domus Renier is one of the best places we’ve stayed in 8 years of traveling around Europe. The rooms are immaculate , the breakfasts sumptuous, and the atmosphere like family. I would recommend this hotel to everyone.
