Just returned after a fantastic week of warm weather and relaxation. From the welcome on arrival to the goodbyes at the end of the week, the staff were informative, open and friendly. We were lucky enough to to be in Elounda for Greek Orthodox Easter celebrations and joined with the local people in late night parades and watching fireworks. As... More

We've just come back after another lovely holiday at the Olive Grove Apartments. It's one of those rare places that has it all - fantastic location, great accommodation and above all, a very, very warm welcome from Julia, Dimitri and all the family. We've been there many times now and can't recommend it more highly. Can't wait to go back!

Stayed here for 10 days with the family and it was absolutely brilliant! The staff were excellent and very friendly, the location is perfect. A short walk to the beach, resturants and bars however there was no noise from the bars on the evening. There was also a lovely little local market a couple of minuets walk from apartments. The...

Our first trip to Crete was made extra special by our stay at The Olive Grove. It was a last minute holiday, purchased online and then subsequently endorsed by a colleague that had stayed there a year or two ago. We were delighted from the moment we arrived until the moment we left. The Apartments were spotless, spacious, well equipped,... More

This was our second visit this year and we were not disappointed. Julia, Dimitri, Manos and Andreas were as welcoming as ever, please don't change anything as you have the perfect set up. Apartments spotless as usual and fantastic to have an enclosed shower, no slippery floors what a bonus. Saturday night entertainment from The Two Amigos was brilliant and... More

This was our 5th stay at the Olive Grove and every bit as good as previous times. I was particularly pleased to see that even though they seem to be fully occupied with new and return visitors alike, they hadn't rested on their laurels and had introduced some new features such as the departure packs (baguettes etc to take to...

Have recently returned from our 3rd holiday at the Olive Grove. As usual we were greeted like friends by Dimitri, Julia and their wonderful sons. Apartments are spotlessly clean and well equipped. Julia's breakfasts are a must with the best scrambled egg i've ever tasted and the free Meze is amazing. The Wednesday barbecue is still popular with delicious food... More
