No amenities

This hotel is a two mile walk from the town with no shops/supermarket to purchase food or drink. We got breakfast and dinner but then nowhere to buy anything for lunch and they charge you for water from the bar/kitchen. The fridge in the room was only big enough to hold two bottles of water and didn't even keep it cool. Unless you got to breakfast at 8am on the dot the hot food was cold, and not a good selection or variety. Some of the staff could not speak a word of English and abrupt in manner. However two of the staff were excellent. The pool was kept immaculate and the views are stunning. Right across the bay and over Spinalonga. However this was not enough for me to recommend this hotel to anyone. This hotel predominantly deal with fully inclusive guests and I feel don't cater for anyone else and perhaps a small shop on site would make the stay a whole lot more comfortable.

Near enough in - far enough out!

Just home from a lovely stay at the Selena. The hotel is situated about 1.5-2 km outside of Elounda. It's s pleasant walk in along the coast path and there are buses or taxis in if you don't fancy a walk. All rooms, i believe, have sea views and what a fabulous view I had from my balcony! The island of Spinalonga, just opposite Plaka (smaller town approx 2 km away and in my opinion well worth a taxi ride away for it's wonderful array of different shops and restaurants) is in clear view from the Selena Hotel. If you've not yet read The Island, make sure to find time to do so before visiting if you plan to take the boat trip to the uninhabited island if Spinalonga - it will make the trip more meaningful. My room was spacious and airy and cleaned daily by cheerful staff. There are two pools - one which overlooks the ocean.

Friendly

Very friendly staff, basic accommodation. We paid £80/night for a suite (bedroom with a walk through room with a sofa in it),I think it was worth £40. The breakfast was the same every morning, fake bacon (cold), fake sausages (cold), beans- yes you guessed it, cold. The fried eggs and omelette were warm. One morning there was scrambled egg, no flavour and strange texture, probably fake powdered stuff, as I heard the mixer going for many minutes prior to breakfast being served. There was the usual bread, cakes, etc. Tomato & cucumber was the only veg/salad. For a country that prides itself on healthy eating and longevity, why subject the tourists to fake food.

Last Minute Bargain

We were lucky enough to book this hotel only one week before travelling at the end of July for 11 nights. Greeted with a warm welcome which lasted for the whole holiday - the reception staff could not have done more for us , booking taxis , tickets , sorting small issues out and giving advice. Rooms were cleaned every day. Breakfast was a decent selection of what you would expect with enough choice to mix it up each morning. We did B and B only but I`m sure the all inclusive would be good also.There was no fighting for sunbeds although they could possibly do with a few more. Free aircon ( first time ever in Greece ! ) and a free safe were nice surprises. The beach ( not sand ) is only a few yards from the hotel and the sunbeds are free for Expedia customers - everyone else paid ! We visited Spinalonga early in the day direct from Plaka to beat the crowds via the local bus service , Aqua Park and Agios Nicolaos - the latter being a little disappointing - very touristy and expensive food and drink. Each evening we walked into the centre which was a comfortable 15 minutes along a flat , newly laid promenade . It feels completely safe to walk around . I must mention one restaurant. On the way into Elounda , just before you turn into the main centre please try Okeanis. It is always empty but the food and service is fantastic - such a shame it`s in the wrong place. Overall , we had a great holiday and would recommend both the hotel and Elounda itself.

No hot water for the first part of our stay.

Booked an executive room last minute for a 5 night stay but there was not much to get excited about really, we didn't have any hot water for the first part of our stay but it began to flow after 2 complaints at reception, the bathroom has a very small bath and the shower head could not be connected to the wall to enable you to stand beneath it, so it was hand held. there was an odd looking electric cooker in our room with a sink but no utensils and only a couple of glasses ? All pretty basic really. On the breakfast front, well again very basic stuff and we struggled to get anything above tepid in the cooked breakfast selection, cant say what the evening buffet was like because we ate out mostly. The outside bar area was quite nice though and cold beer was on tap with a smile.

Dreckiges Hotelzimmer, unfreundliches Personal.

Wir hatten 3 Nächte gebucht. Als wir das Zimmer gesehen haben sind wir zu Rezeption und haben nach einer Stonierung gefragt. Da es schon zu spät um ein neues Hotel zu finden haben wir uns mit dem Personal geeinigt, dass dass wir am nächsten morgen sofort auschecken können und die übrigen 2 Nächte rückerstattet bekommen. Am nächsten morgen wollten Sie das nicht mehr machen. Wir wurden auch unverschämt belogen, der Manager hat sich versteckt und immer die Dame an der Rezeption vorgeschickt und sie haben uns nicht einmal ordentlich ausgecheckt. Wir sind dann einfach gefahren und haben uns für die übrigen 2 Tage ein neues Hotel gesucht. Noch eine weitere Nacht hätten wir es dort nicht ausgehalten. Eine Rückerstattung haben wir nicht bekommen. Ich kann nur davon abraten dort zu buchen!

little gem at a great price!

my husband and myself were looking for a few days in the sun at Elounda, nothing extravagant as we had already had our summer holiday. We came across Selena Village Hotel which fitted the budget and in a good location, close to both Elounda and Plaka (if you're not scared of a couple of miles walk each way). The only flights we could get landed in the early morning hours so we got in touch with Selena to double check reception would be open at that time and also to arrange a private transfer, they were very accommodating and all was arranged effortlessly and on arriva, check in was dealt with very quickly and we were also able to arrange for a drink. The staff throughout our stay were friendly and always willing to help and the Hotel was clean and comfortable. We upgraded our room on booking and we had a wonderful duel storey apartment with two balconies and wonderful views over the Bay, which we could of had another two people staying and still have plenty of room. For a Crete 3* hotel we were very pleased indeed and could not find fault.

First holiday on my own!!

Enjoyed my stay but would have been better had I had rented a car ( a bit too far to walk in the heat to the nearest towns) Took the bus to Plaka and went over to Spinalonga which was very nice could have done with going on a organised tour with a guide, but it was still enjoyable. Also went by bus to Elounga and then on to Agios Nickalous both very nice lovely shops and lots of places to eat. I did walk to the local Despina Tavern one night for dinner which was lovely and then had a taxi back.
