Elounda
From our Elounda Maris Villas you can enjoy the most beautiful view of Elounda and the peninsula Kolokitha, a great place for bird-watching, with on its tail Spinalonga, the little islet known because of its Venetian fortress and as the base of the former leper colony. It was also Spinalonga that served as inspiration for Victoria Hislop’s best-selling novel "The Island". Elounda itself with its luxurious hotel resorts has become over the years a national hideaway for Greek celebrities to spend some relaxing days. The village is a convenient starting point for a boat trip to Spinalonga. |
