5-star resort on Mirabello Bay with Europe's first Six Senses Spa
Spa & Wellness
The resort houses the first Six Senses Spa in Europe, recognized by Sunday Times' Travel Magazine as World's Best Spa and by Spafinder Reader's Choice as Best Spa in Greece. The 2,200 m2 spa offers holistic treatments, a heated freshwater indoor pool, sauna, and steam room. Guests can also access a fitness centre with personal trainers and yoga classes overlooking the bay.
Dining
The Dine Around scheme allows guests to use meal credits at the resort's own restaurants and at sister properties Elounda Mare and Elounda Peninsula. On-site options include Nafsika Restaurant with sea views for breakfast and dinner, Aglio e Olio serving Italian cuisine, and the beachfront tavern Odysseus. The resort also offers Japanese fusion at Sumosan and Italian dishes at Il Borro, both located within the Elounda Collection.
Golf & Activities
A 9-hole golf course with views of Mirabello Bay is available exclusively to resort guests, with an in-house golf academy staffed by PGA professionals. The hotel also maintains tennis courts and a water sports centre offering jet-skis, windsurfing, water skiing, and sailing. A PADI-certified scuba diving centre and luxury yacht charters are available for guests seeking on-the-water experiences.
Beach & Coast
The private sandy beach holds a Blue Flag award for water quality and offers complimentary sunbeds and umbrellas. Calm, clear waters make snorkeling popular, and guests can rent water sports equipment directly on the beach. The hotel also arranges boat trips to Spinalonga and the nearby blue lagoon.
