CRETE - Greece
Elounda Hills

The natural amphitheatre at Elounda Hills is carved into the ancient rock of Crete, embedded in the fabric of Greek culture that is built upon thousands of years of rich mythology and tradition.

It’s the perfect setting for a resort that sets the new standard for luxury Mediterranean living.

Scheduled to open in 2026, Elounda Hills will incorporate a spectacular 5* hotel by 1 Hotels, Camper & Nicholsons marina, marina village with hotel and yacht club, spa and wellness centre, restaurants and bars, sandy beaches, beach clubs, seafront promenade, and numerous sporting and leisure amenities. It will also be the first luxury resort in Crete to offer branded residences for sale.

All this, combined with Crete’s highly developed infrastructure, excellent international transport links, untouched natural environment, and one of the most temperate climates in Europe, makes Elounda Hills the perfect destination in which to own your Mediterranean home.
