Lafo Rooms, hotel in Elafonisi

Located 800 metres from Elafonissi Beach, Lafo Rooms offers accommodation with a balcony, as well as a garden and a terrace.

We booked the room so we could enjoy a longer day at the Elafonisi beach and not drive back the windy road at night. The room is rather modern with a big bed. Once the daily tourists are gone, it gets really peaceful. There is a big parking spot in front of it where you can leave your car during the stay. Moreover there is the possibility to have a small breakfast.

    Elafonisi is the most overrated beach in Crete.

    Elafonisi is the most overrated beach in Crete. Super crowded. The sand is not pink. It's a normal sand. The beach resorts are expensive, usually they are full and the chairs are attached. On top of that, you need to walk 20 minutes to reach the sea.

    Breathtaking natural lagoon which everyone is coming to enjoy. Get here before the buses arrive at 10 am or come after 4pm when buses leave otherwise I think it is too crowded. Consider staying overnight at Lafo Rooms.

    Elafonisi Beach, with its unique pink sand, is undeniably...

    Elafonisi Beach, with its unique pink sand, is undeniably stunning. However, during the day it can become extremely crowded, making it challenging to find sunbeds. Nevertheless, as the day transitions into evening, the beach becomes quiet, serene, and free from crowds, allowing you to fully appreciate its true beauty, especially during the magical moments just before sunset.

    What a ZOO!!!

    What a ZOO!!! It’s mid October and the place is still super crowded. Cannot even begin to imagine the crowds in July or August. Crowds aside… it is an amazing place… beautiful, clear water.. great for young families. One can find a bit of privacy across the water on the spot.

    A truly beautiful beach, the nicest I have visited in Crete...

    A truly beautiful beach, the nicest I have visited in Crete so far. It is also a very valuable and protected natural site. The beach offers a very varied environment. There is classic seating on the shore under umbrellas and bars. Towards the sea you can enjoy the shallow beach and the sea waves. On the other side there is a quiet shallow lagoon with several islets and a sand spit connecting the coast with the island of Elafonisi. The lagoon is just a paddle away. If you go further, the other side of the island is again washed by the sea and there is also quite a nice snorkeling environment. Because of the size and ruggedness of the place, you can easily find a space for yourself. But there are a lot of people. There is little shade on the spot, so the more experienced ones will occupy the better spots first thing in the morning. It's good to have something to protect you from the sun. You have to go back to the beginning for drinks and toilets, so count on that. Plenty of space to park on site, just the last stretch is not a groomed road so watch your tyres.

    The owners of this hotel were incredibly kind and helpful during our stay. They went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed, and they gave us some amazing beach recommendations that we never would have found online. The room was clean and comfortable with an amazing view, and the location was great. We would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a friendly stay close to Elafonissi Beach.

    It was lovely. Elafonisi is pretty much a long road with no villages and a few hotels on the way. Glykeria was a short drive from the beach. It's comfy, the pool is great and the staff super nice. The food at the restaurant is also good. I'd recommend to go to the cedar beach, a bit less busy than elafonisi but absolutely marvelous if you can get a spot under a tree (go early or late).

    Everything was perfect considering our requests! Spend one night in a comfortable and inexpensive room close to Elafonisi beach. We have pleased that there is free parking, the room had a fridge, kettle, coffee and even some dining appliances. There is also a hairdryer and shower accessories. Everything what you need after spending all day on the beach. 😁

    The Apartment was very clean, spacious and modern. The host welcomed us with a homemade dessert and nice amenities inside the room. The attention to detail and the genuine hospitality was exceptional. There is not much around in this area but we felt that the location was perfect close to Elafonisi beach. Thank you for a great stay.

    The location is perfect to explore the Elefonisi area. Elafonisi beach is ok, but is a tourist trap. We went to some other beaches nearby that were awesome. A few good restaurants close by, and a mini market with some essentials. The pool was great, actually, the pool and location are the only good things about this property.

    We loved the sea view, and the orchard view that the particular cottage offered. It was clean and peaceful, definitely worth the money. There was a large free parking lot and the swimming pool was a bonus. The Elafonisi beach was only 10 minutes away, you have to walk down the hill. It's the closest property from the beach.

    Amazing location, a few min walk from the beautiful Elafonissi beach, one of the closest rooms available to the beach. Next to the room the family owns a mini market open until late and there is private parking available. Highly recommended, the room is quite new and clean

    Beautiful, clean rooms with great views! Very short, easy drive to Elofinisi. The rooms were full of great design touches and the bathroom was the nicest we'd encountered in our whole 14 days in Crete. We only stayed one night, but definitely would have enjoyed more.
