Porto Elounda: An exclusive resort in a quiet enclave on the island of Crete.

Discover the beachside paradise of Porto Elounda Golf Resort & Spa, and sister property the Peninsula All-Suite Hotel with Powder Byrne.

Both properties are enjoying a renaissance thanks to the care and attention of the Kokotos family, inspiration behind one of the most luxurious private resorts on the island. Unlock your summer with our unique services available throughout the summer holiday season.

On the northeastern coast of Crete lies the Porto Elounda Resort, a beautiful seaside retreat in an extraordinary setting. For over 20 years our clients have enjoyed the charming hospitality of this luxurious family-friendly resort. Allow us to introduce you to the exciting new accommodation options now available, as well as enhancements to restaurants and resort services which will elevate your stay to new levels.

DESIRABLE NEW SUITES AND FAMILY ACCOMMODATION

Fresh investment in the resort’s accommodation continues with the launch of new Premium Suites and Junior Suites in the main building, either with private or shared pools. These rooms offer great options for families with extra beds for children in separate sitting rooms, with two bathrooms.

These new accommodation options are in addition to the popular Peninsula Junior Suites, one, two and three-bedroom Collection Suites, each with individual pools, and the larger Peninsula Grand Villas with private pools, for those looking for even more scale and privacy. Larger families and groups of friends have access to the Diamond Residences - exclusive villa accommodation set on their own private beach, offering from one to seven-bedroom options with private pools and other luxurious amenities.

REVAMPED BEACH LOUNGE & WATER TAXI SERVICE

Enhancing your experience of the beautiful beach-side pool, the largest resort pool on the island, you can now relax and enjoy the new beach lounge too, perfect for cocktails or a relaxed lunchtime snack. A new on-demand water taxi service links the gourmet restaurant options of the neighbouring Elounda Mare Hotel with the Porto Elounda, so you can arrive in style and enjoy the scenic coastal views.

EXCLUSIVE NEW RESTAURANTS

Il Borro Tuscan Bistro has been a huge hit with clients since launching last summer, providing mouthwatering dishes of authentic Tuscan treats combined with Greek traditions and local ingredients celebrating fresh Mediterranean cuisine at its finest. The waterside location provides the perfect backdrop for lunch or dinner, with signature dishes such as Lamb, Tuscan steaks, stewed octopus, wood-fired oven pizzas and freshly caught fish. The newly launched Sumosan Japanese restaurant on the peninsula is not to be missed.

All resort restaurants offer healthy options which have been designed in collaboration with the Six Senses Spa. Organic, gluten-free, low-calorie dishes with raw products and locally sourced sustainable ingredients offer a healthy alternative for those looking to embrace wellness as part of their holiday experience.
