My husband stayed for five nites in September. Let me preface the review by saying that we stayed on a combination of free Starwood nights and points/ cash redemption. So we spent very little for a room (which they upgraded to a beautiful suite without any prompting). I'm thinking if I spent 700 euro/ nite I may be a bit... more

Not impressed. Besides being completely overpriced, it is not well kept, the restaurants are not good, and the rooms are ordinary. We even paid for the infinity pool in our room and what a disappointment. The resort is over an hour from the port and airport. Just not worth it. more

I loved this hotel. The moment I arrived, it seemed as though the entire hotel staff came to your side. They are super nice, and attentive. The rooms were gorgeous, nice bathrooms, with a private plunge pool. The restaurant is pricey, we ate at the Italian restaurant, and my food was very bland. I wouldn't eat there again. Aside from... more

Was everything and more we could have wished. We were fortunate to be up-graded to one of the new bungalows at the far east of the resort. Very private our own pool and sun deck meant we did not need to spend time at the beach trying to find a sun lounger. Plaka is a lovely village and is better... more

We stayed at the Blue Palace in August. We had what they call a superior bungalow- nice average sized room, with a nice large bathroom and balcony. The beach and pool area is nice and the staff friendly. The two main things we will remember are the price of food and drink at the hotel and also the weather. We... more

First, this hotel is incredible. We loved it. I am a Starwood Gold member and we were on our honeymoon and they did a couple special things for us: upgraded the room, flowers on the bed, champagne on arrival in room, and "happy honeymoon" cake on 2nd night. People who do not rate this hotel as 4.5 or 5 need... more

I had an absolutely wonderful experience at the Blue Palace. The beaches were extraordinary and the hotel views were beautiful. I definitely recommend this hotel and hope to go back for another visit! more

When we arrived on Crete it was raining very hard and continued to rain for hours and well into the next day! What a shock and most dissapointing to say the least. So this meant that our one hour taxi trip to the hotel seemed more like a boat trip, with no view at all of Crete. Of course the... more

My husband and I stayed at The Blue Palace in May 2008, The resort is beautiful, in a stunning and breathtaking location surrounded by mountains and looking across to Plaka and Spinalonga island, the views are magnificent. We stayed in a standard room with a balcony and it was perfect. The pools, beach and spa area are supberp. We ate... more
