INNSiDE Elounda

Very modern hotel and we had the sea view plunge pool room which was perfect.Breakfast was excellent with plenty of options and excellent service by the staff. Nice and peaceful around pool with plenty of sun beds and good pool bar. Nothing is too much trouble and every member of staff were superb and very helpful. Special thanks to Irini for helping with a late checkout due to our evening return flight

The new Innside Elounda is great addition to Melia's portfolio - glorious views over Mirabello Bay, excellent breakfast, spotless rooms, very comfortable beds and blackout curtains which actually do what they are meant to. The complimentary minibar, replenished every day was an added bonus. It's always good to stay in a hotel where the management care enough to be very visible and try very hard to make sure that their guests are happy. Thanks to Loukas, Christos, Irini and all of their team for making our stay so special.

Fantastic! View, staff, food, quality all around, pool, room service, breakfast. friendliness from reception helping out with taxi, recommendations, restaurant bookings… I almost don’t want to write this review because I want to keep this gem for myself. We had a lovely time and we will come back. Thank you very much!

I had an exceptional stay at INNSiDE by Meliá Elounda. From the moment we arrived, the front-of-house team ( especially Irini )made us feel genuinely welcome with their warm, professional, and attentive service. Nothing was too much trouble, and every interaction was friendly and efficient. The breakfast was outstanding, with a fantastic selection of fresh, high-quality food to suit every taste. It was the perfect way to start each day while taking in the breathtaking views over Elounda Bay. The hotel itself is beautiful, with stunning scenery in every direction. Our room was spacious, stylish, and featured a gorgeous private plunge pool, making it the perfect place to relax and unwind while enjoying the incredible surroundings. Really enjoyed the very chic and tranquil gym . It’s about a 30 minute walk int Elounda town or 12 eur in a taxi. Hotel has only been open since May and everything is brand new The combination of excellent service, spectacular views, luxurious rooms, and an amazing breakfast made this a truly memorable stay. I would highly recommend INNSiDE by Meliá Elounda to anyone looking for a relaxing and high-quality holiday in Crete, and I would happily return. They make a very good Hugo !!

From start to finish this was an incredible experience. I was a solo traveller and felt incredibly safe. This hotel only opened up in May 2026 and so that is why there are no reviews, I took a gamble after booking a few days before I left and so glad I did. The hotel is a soho house inspired decor with everything brand new and stunning, the staff went above and beyond and nothing was too big or too small, they are exceptionally attentive. The pool area is stunning and quiet and everyone was very respectful. The food was incredible and exceptionally reasonably priced for a 5* hotel. Breakfast buffet was excellent. There is a gold buggy that can take you to the bottom of the road for taxis to Elounda which is a lovely little town for a bit of shopping and dinner - 12 Euros. There is no beach as you are up on the hill but I did walk down to the public inlet with a beach bar and loungers. I also went to Macrame beach club which was great and a 20 min taxi which was 40 Euros each way. I needed 6 days to decompress and I really got it, i had to drag myself out of the hotel as it was so comfortable to sightsee. The reception will call the taxis for you and you have a whatsapp number to message them when you need. Please book this hotel if you are umming and ahing over a few - you will not be disappointed - for context, I have travelled a lot as I was an ex-pat and to be impressed takes a lot! This is also my first ever review! side note: for transfers - I used BEST CRETE TRANSFERS to and from the airport which is just under an hour to the hotel (148Euros) on the advice from other trip advisor reviews
