We had a loveley week at the Windmill in Elounda. The place is so unique and has a long traditional history. Everything is just like it was described. We even had some ventilators in the house which where nescesary for sleeping at night. The kitchen is equipped with everything you need (do not leave food outside- there are many hungry ants :0)
The roof terrace is great for chilling out in the evening and have a view over the whole bay. We even saw two beautiful fireworks from another hotel while beeing up there.
The beach is just a short walking distance away and there is so much to explore in this area. For the beach it is good to have some watershoes to wear, cause of many urchins. Kolokitha Beach is stunning and just a short drive away- but we only reccomend in the afternoon past 16.00 cause there are to many tourist boats that bring hundreds of people. We took an amazing boat tour as well with Rofos Boat Tours in the evening with Katerina and her Husband.
Despina gave us many great insider tips to see, and as well some recommended restaurants. A great time in Elounda- thank you so much!
