    If you read this, make yourself a favor and book this place. The property is literally a piece of paradise, the room was very nice and the view is breathtaking. The hosts are just amazing and we felt very welcome 😁

    The rooms were not cleaned properly (they made the bed but didn't clean the bathroom sink). The rooms were also a little bit outdated. Breakfast was good but every morning the same (except the eggs).

    The beautiful view from the breakfast terrace and from our own balcony. The pool was good. The personnel is very friendly and helpful! Loved the four kittens!

    The AC was efficient, but very loud, even if kept on low-speed fan. If you're not a sound sleeper and it's very hot outside during the night (during our 7-night stay in July, the temperature was around 27-28°C at night and 37-40°C during daytime), it's unfortunately almost impossible to have a good night sleep with the AC on. The AC is also very close to the bed. If you also have the fridge working at the same time, it's even more noise. Also, you have to be very careful when using the shower, so that you don't splash water all over the place (the shower has no door). Toiletries were provided only on the first night. However, we had our own shower gel & shampoo, so for us it wasn't necessarly an issue.

    Well-positioned: close to Agios Nikolaos, Elounda, Voulisma beach. Quiet area, wonderful garden, great view from the balcony, clean room, comfortable bed with sockets and lights on both sides, very friendly staff, good breakfast, outdoor pool & poolbar available. Free parking available.

    The poolside area of the Sunlight Hotel could greatly benefit from an upgrade in seating comfort and aesthetics to further enhance the inviting ambiance.

    The staff at the Sunlight Hotel exude an extraordinary level of friendliness and they consistently go the extra mile to ensure their guests' satisfaction.

    We have felt so at home here that we have decided to visit this small but cozy hotel more in the future. Yiorgos the hotel owner goes out of his way to please his guests. He made me the best Greek coffee I've ever had. I always looked forward to chatting with him at the pool bar in the evenings.

    Everything you would expect from a 3 stars hotel but with, on top, an incredible sea view. The hotel is ideally located between Agios Nikolaos, Elounda and Plaka if you want something outside of the crowds. George, the owner, is an amazing host, gave us lots of tips and recommendations outside of the main touristic zones. Would definitely recommend to stay here !
