The view....
Controlled by the Venetians in the 17th century, Spinalonga, which translates to "long thorn" fell to the Ottomans in 1715 before becoming one of the last leper colonies in Europe. Uninhabited since 1957, the small island just across the bay from Elounda is covered in enchanting ruins, emblematic churches, and colorful reconstructed storefronts.Photo Credits: George Lizardos
Blue Palace Resort and Spa was ranked 4th in the top European resorts in the Condé Nast Traveler Readers Choice Awards for 2012
The Elounda Spa & Thalassotherapy was created out of our passion to combine the benefits of Thalassotherapy with the commitment to luxury and personal attention. Originated in France, Thalassotherapy, comes from the Greek word "Thalassa" meaning "sea or ocean". Natural salt water and its marine elements such as seaweed, thermal clay and plankton are some of the indispensable elements that are used in Thalassotherapy. Photo Credits: George Lizardos

Incorporating the resort's signature color, the Blue Door is a typical Greek Taverna with a spectacular beach-front location. As part of its mission to remain true to island roots, the Blue Palace Resort & Spa has transformed an old fisherman's stone house into the renowned Blue Door Taverna. Photo Credits: Niall Clutton
The resort's principal restaurant is named Olea after the olive trees found in enormous Cretan pots that adorn the impressive veranda. Every table features a stunning view to the sea and the isle of Spinalonga making breakfasts there a treasured moment serving a rich American buffet breakfast with French Champagne daily.Photo Credits: George Lizardos
