Re: Elounda - Crete. Anyone been lately?
      17/06/2009 16:52

Hello

I have just came back from there, 2 weeks ago. The weather was fabulous, never a cloud in the sky, the sun was very hot and the days long, and the sea was clear blue, and the food was great. The town is small but perfect for dining and taking in the atmosphere, and there is another town 10 minutes taxi ride away if you prefer to shop and party, and for the markets.

I would go back tomorrow, the shops are stocked well with allot of uk products and the poeple are very nice, they have been affected very much by the economic downturn and so the place is very quiet, and they welcome you with open arms.

The prices for drinks in the town are very cheap, the hotels are dearer. out of many other the islands Elounda doesnt seem to have any young crowds of people, just families and couples.

The taxi people are a bit erratic, the hiring of cars may be a bit scary!! i never did that, as it was only a 7 day holiday i was happy to just relax and take in the sunshine and cocktails!!
