Eleonas Country Village is the starting point where every distinguished guest can launch countless activities  in order to discover nature's  abundance, the Cretan tradition, the island’s world famous gastronomy and culture!

Eleonas Green Village complex lies in the heart of a perennial olive grove, in the shadow of the mythical Mt Psiloritis, the highest mountain of Crete, where according to the Greek mythology God Zeus was raised!

Eleonas complex resembles a traditional Cretan village nestled in the arms of nature; it is  built with stone and wood, while there are small neighbourhoods, balconies with a view and courtyards full of flowers and stone small alleys, oasis of trees and many aromatic herbs.

Walking around the Hotel, you will be captivated by the intoxicating aromas of the different cretan herbs  that are planted in each and every corner. At every step you make, you will find colourful flowers that bloom every season, olives, oaks and fruit trees. There are also small signs with each plant’s name and a brief introduction; you are invited  to cut any plant you like in order to smell it. A large fertile field, close to Eleonas, hosts a flowering garden, with all kinds of seasonal, organic vegetables, that you can taste daily  at breakfast as well as the restaurant's meal and dinner.

In the outdoor stone kitchen, equipped with the wood oven, all guests can attend Cretan cooking lessons! All dishes with recipes of the Cretan cuisine are cooked with ingredients coming from the garden and small nearby farms. Fresh doughs that are prepared with flour that comes from Cretan apples, will be then filled with fragrant mountain greens and local fresh cheese in the shape of a pie! Tomatoes, eggplants and zucchini are stuffed with rice and spices! There is meat of excellent quality that is being cooked with potatoes while many other delicacies are simmered in the pots. All together participate in this unique celebration of Cretan gastronomy!
