"We arrived at the Despina before it had opened just for a drink but the food and service was so good and the view so stunning we stayed for a leisurely lunch in the sun - superb"
"We spotted this taverna on a day visit from Agios Nikolaos and decided when we were returning to Elounda the following week we would eat there at lunchtime.
There are two parts to it one inside where the food is cooked and where the loos are., the other is the dining area across the street where ..."you have a good view of the boats and this area is undercover but with open sides but can be closed of by wind down shutters. All the staff are so friendly and helpful and the food was really good. I had Moussaka and the others in our group had the meatballs, the special pizza and the stuffed vegetables and we all enjoyed our meals. We had the house rose wine and it was the best wine we had anywhere over the 2 weeks we were in Crete.
Would definitely return if we go back to the area

This place is in a league of its own. Truly phenomenal from the food, to the impeccable service, to Daniel's knowledge of the area. If you miss this place then you've missed the jewel in Elounda's heart. An absolute world class be...
