“Charming hotel with breathtaking view”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 December 2011

This hotel is in a fabulous location just a few minutes walk from Skala. By being just around the corner from the main town and harbour though it feels more peaceful and quiet than the hotels in the centre. It is a small, family run hotel and the owners were very charming and welcoming. The communal areas are pleasant and there is a nice seating area outside where you can have breakfast. The bedrooms are very simple, and it is here that I think a little more could be done cosmetically, just to make the room look more appealing. It was two twin beds pushed together, which is very common, but I didn't find the bed particularly comfortable. We did though have a nice big balcony. All in all though this hotel represented terrific value and if you want a good, basic hotel I would happily recommend the Blue Bay. The other guests also all seemed very happy with the hotel.

“Perfect spot in Patmos”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 September 2011

We've been going to the Blue Bay for several years and it remains, in our estimation, the perfect spot to stay in Patmos. Located around the bend just 50 meters from the port and town, it gives you the impression of being isolated due to the rock formations which surround it and the unobstructed view of the bay and islands in the distance.
The rooms are adequate (although beds would benefit from better mattresses and softer pillows) with a fridge, airconditioning and TV if you're so inclined. Buffet style breakfast can be enjoyed on the shaded terrace...
The owners Ana and Steve are both delightful and very helpful, as is the rest of the staff. Rooms with balconies facing the bay are the best and if you're travelling with friends the two adjoining rooms which share a huge private terrace are ideal.
Peaceful and highly recommended place to stay on the most beautiful island in the Dodecanese.

Room Tip: Room 115 or adjoining room

“Simply Idyllic”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 September 2011

Patmos has got to be one of the best of the Greek islands; it has plenty of sites and services but is not overcrowded by tourists and therefore remains relatively unspoilt. The Blue Bay Hotel occupies a prime location on the hill just outside the town, about 5mins walk from the port. The family that run it are very friendly and they have managed to strike a good balance between having a small hotel but with excellent facilities. The breakfast is fresh, filling and delicious. The rooms are simply decorated but clean and comfortable, and they open out onto spacious sun verandas with breathtaking views across the bay. Just 5mins further walk along the road will take you to some small steps that lead down into a quiet cove which is the perfect spot for a breakfast swim. We'd highly recommend both Patmos and the Blue Bay - just don't tell too many people!

Room Tip: Ask for one of the rooms with a larger front-facing veranda

“Head to Patmos and chill out at the Blue Bay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 October 2010

Great Aussie/Greek Family run business. Fantastic breakfast with home treats on alternating days (fig jam, farm fresh eggs) on the balcony, different rooms have different aspects so check out which room you;re in as you'll enjoy the time lounging around on this beautiful island.
