About this hotel
Domes of Elounda is a Marriott Autograph Collection property set on the Cretan coast near the village of Elounda. The hotel opened in 2010 and operates at the upper-upscale tier, designed primarily as a family-oriented resort. The property spans multiple levels down to a private beach and incorporates suites and villas alongside leisure facilities typical of the Autograph brand's curated approach. External validation comes from the World Travel Awards: the property earned the title of Europe's Leading Luxury Family Resort in 2025 and, in the same year, World's Leading Luxury Family Resort globally. These accolades signal strong performance in family amenities, service consistency, and on-site programming. The location in Elounda places the hotel within reach of Crete's cultural sites and beaches, and the resort's scale and design draw families seeking both relaxation and activities on a Mediterranean base.
