The food is delicious and very varied, with local greek products like tsatsiki, gyros, fêta,... There are many pools, for Kids and adults with a beautiful view of the sea. And the beach is only a fiew steps from the pool. The rooms are really nice with very confortable beds. And the hotel himself is beautiful with beautiful flowers, trees,... If you come to Crête, this hotel is a must !!

4.5 stars Just back from a week at Blue Sea Beach. We came as a family of 6 with 2 young adult children and two children aged 8 and (almost) 13. We were a bit worried before we came after reading some negative reviews but our expectations were far exceeded, we all had such a brilliant holiday. The hotel is beautiful, the views from the bar in particular are stunning. We really enjoyed the food, we came for classic Greek food and were not disappointed, there was a huge variety every day, and enough standard options for fussier children plus some non Greek options as well. I have no idea why some people say the food is awful and the meat processed as that was the opposite of our experience. There were also loads of salad and cooked veggie options each day. My partner has a gluten intolerance but always found plenty of GF options. The main issue for him was desserts but it did seem like most desserts had a biscuit crumb that made it not GF, would be good if they could just provide adaptations like this, in the end he just left the biscuit bit so he didn't get to miss out on all the delicious desserts. The pools were great and unlike some reviews really not too small for us. We liked the way the biggest pool was divided/flowed over a few sections so it felt like each pool was separate but in fact you could move across each section if you wanted. There's a fantastic 0.8 metre depth pool, perfect for our 8 year old who finally learnt to swim on her front on this holiday. A lot of resorts have a childrens pool that is not deep enough to swim and then main pools where they can't touch the ground. There was also a smaller toddler pool so really something to suit everyone. The staff here were just the loveliest bunch, so friendly and all seemed to take pride in their work. I actually felt sad that I didn't get the chance to say goodbye to some of our favorites who weren't around on our last day, especially Maria who always checked in with us during meal times. We did pay for late check out, which was fine and like other places we've stayed at couldn't be confirmed until the day. We were a bit disappointed that the AI ended at 6 when our pick up wasn't until 830pm (and we'd arrived well after midnight on our first day) but we made the most of it by having the fantastic Eva serve us Gyros from the snack bar for dinner before spending our last few hours with our final cocktail at the main bar. The staff at the bar were great, so attentive and we really loved the cocktails there. We were AI which was ideal for us as a big family group as it's hard to please children with different needs /ages. The snack bar was a godsend for the older children who didn't always get up for breakfast. We liked that there was an a la carte option and did enjoy the food at the a la carte although one of them main dishes was a bit bland. The other dishes there were lovely though. We were a bit confused by the drink options at the a la carte and were given the impressio

We have had a brilliant week at Blue Sea Beach. The location of the hotel is excellent, right opposite the beach and close by to restaurants, cafes, shops etc. It is the quieter end of Stalis town which is really lovely. The hotel is set in beautiful landscaped gardens. The rooms are very nice and the bed was so comfortable, I wanted to take it home! The cleaning team do a great job as do all the staff. The staff really are wonderful here. The kitchen team, the managers, the waiting staff, they are so kind and friendly and helpful. They were amazing with our baby and made him special food. This is a wonderful hotel, very chilled and great for families, couples and anyone wanting a relaxed stay. There is also good evening entertainment. The live music was brilliant and the acrobatics show was fantastic. The food is very good. The breakfast is great with fresh, made to order omelettes, lots of pastries, fresh bread, salad, hot buffet, meats, cheese etc. Each night there was a lot of choice for dinner. The salads were excellent and they always had some nice greek dishes which we really enjoyed as well as international offerings. There is definitely something for everyone. The spa was lovely too, we enjoyed a relaxing massage there. There are two main pools and a kids pool where the kids club is. We didn't have a problem getting a sunbed because we were happy to have one on the grass and not up by the bar. The pool and bars open at 10 but if you want to get something there is a mini market next door so sometimes we bought drinks there. The kids club had a nice playground for children and it was in the shade which was great. Overall we loved the hotel, the staff and would definitely recommend the hotel. We would like to come back again another year. Thank you to all the staff at Blue, you are amazing!

Everything was great, especially the food and entertainment at the hotel:) the location is full of plants, trees, it is very green around, which makes everything beautiful! The hotel has two pools, the private beach, very good for families with kids. Karaoke and acrobatic shows were cooool! great restaurant and bar, you can also have yoga and Pilates here.

We are just finishing our 10-day-vacation at this amazing place. This hotel fulfills all our needs: amazing location on the beach; well-maintained, beautiful gardens and facilities; great variety of food every day with local products and in high quality; various activity choices both for parents and kids. I especially enjoyed the yoga and water aerobic sessions while my kids were always running to participate the kids disco after dinner. Top it all with the evening entertainment, where “The Drifters” really elevated the mood and got us dancing and singing! Above all, I have to mention the friendly and attentive staff- Maria at the restaurant always made sure we got everything we need, Vaco ensured that we enjoyed the sport sessions and Julie cared for the kids always with a smile. Overall, fantastic vacation. Thank you!

Arrived a family of 8 greeted with cool towels and drinks and shown to our rooms. The hotel is beautiful and kept immaculately clean. We had all inclusive and the food was amazing lots of choice and the pool food bar was great too. The only thing I would have liked was some ice lollies, we had to buy them from the shop. Though they did have ice cream available throughout the day. No issue with getting a sun bed they are dotted throughout the grounds. All staff are amazing, can’t do enough for you and so friendly. We had an issue with AC and had to move one of our rooms, had another issue following this and the manager offered to upgrade us which was a lovely gesture. Can’t fault this hotel at all, it’s so beautiful, not over crowded and a relaxing environment to be in. We will definitely return and will recommend this hotel to anyone.
