Why It Matters
One of only a handful of boutique properties in Elounda vetted by Tablet Hotels, sitting meters from Mirabello Bay with Spinalonga Island just 4.3km away. The 13-unit size keeps service personal without being precious about it.
Elounda Stories packs 13 rooms and suites into a classic Greek island building right on the edge of Mirabello Bay — white plaster, stone stairways, arches, and enough greenery to keep things feeling alive. It's a small, thoughtful property with a genuine sense of place: a pool bar for all-day lounging, a rooftop garden for evening apéros, and sea views that make the Premier rooms feel like a splurge that actually pays off. No big resort energy here. Just a well-run boutique in a spot that earns its reputation.
