I stayed here last fall with my husband and it was a great choice. The hotel itself is beautiful. We didn't really eat much at the restaurants because the area right around the hotel had some very charming restaurants for dinner... This is a great place to stay if you're wanting to rest and relax. I loved how the staff... more

While I agree with many reviewers that it is very windy (and we thought it was just because we were there in May) and the pools were too cold, the main problem we had was with the service. We never felt welcomed by anyone at the hotel and there were a number of problems we encountered during our stay. The... more

I really enjoyed my stay at the Blue Palace. My room was extremely clean and spacious and the view of Spinalonga was just incredible. I had room service one night and the service was fast and the food was good. I went to the spa a few times for different treatments and all were very relaxing and nice. I recently... more

I stayed at this hotel in June after my parter decided that he wanted to go on a last minute break for 5 days, our main priority was to be able to have a room that was totally private with a private pool. When i first initially booked the bungalow with private pool... I was happy until i went on... more

I recommend this hotel for people wanting to get away from it all- to feel isolated from the outside world. There really is nothing to do other than relax in the hotel, so it was good that our room was comfortable and spacious. Actually, the entire hotel is very beautiful and spacious. We got a room with an infinity pool,... more

I took my wife to the blue palace for her 40th and unfortunately only had 3 nights so kept going on about how sad it was we could not spend a week. These reviews are only useful if you have a frame of reference regarding what you are comparing the hotel to and the mood of your holiday. We are... more

While the beachfront and view of Elounda Bay was truly spectacular, the hotel itself was unimpressive. The property was enormous and sprawling and felt more like a middle-of-the-road all-inclusive Caribbean resort than a Greek "palace." The hotel itself was impressively decorated and was the least pretty hotel we stayed on during our 2 week trip, and it was also by... more

Just returned from 10 glorious days at the Blue Palace, a hotel that for once is BETTER than the website! We drove ourselves from Heraklion airport - picturesque drive of about 90 mins along the new national road, (as far as it goes). We drove our modest hire car to teh door, and immediately a 'groom' rushed out to get... more

We stayed at the Blue Palace for a portion of our honeymoon in Greece. We splurged for a room with a heated private pool. The pool was not very private other than it was only accessbile from our room. Our pool was right next to about 6 other pools lined up side-by-side. The pool was not very heated either. We... more
