Blue Sea Beach Affiliated by Melia

It is my second time comming here and I will come back next year for sure ! The staff is really nice, always looking for you to have everything you need. 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

My partner, our family, and a total of 20 of us had the absolute pleasure of staying at Blue Sea Beach Hotel in Crete this May, and wow, what an experience! From the moment we arrived, everything was flawless. The Blue Sea Beach truly lives up to its five-star rating. The staff were exceptional – friendly, smiling and couldn’t do enough for you. Every team member, from reception to restaurant staff to entertainment crew, made us feel so welcome and at home. The facilities were spotless and well maintained, with 3 great pools and of course, the hotel’s perfect location right on Stalis Bay beach – you step out of the hotel and you’re practically on the beach. The food was outstanding – so much variety, always fresh, and something for everyone. The highlight had to be the à la carte restaurant – included in our stay for one night, and the food there was absolutely incredible. Such a lovely touch that elevated the whole holiday. We were also impressed by the entertainment. There was always something going on, day and night – especially enjoyed the water aerobics. We’ve never experienced this level of guest engagement at any other hotel we’ve stayed at. The location is ideal – just a short, easy walk into Stalis town, where you’ll find loads of charming restaurants, bars, shops, and rental spots for cars, bikes, or even summer buggies if you’re feeling adventurous. We honestly couldn’t find a single fault during our stay. Everyone in our group left happy, relaxed, and already talking about coming back. Blue Sea Beach Hotel exceeded all our expectations, and we would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Crete.

What we think there were good are:- * The hotel was clean and nice location, close to the beach * The cleaning staffs were very good because they cleaned the room everyday and even the pools. What we think the hotel can be better are:- * We were disappointed about the information we got from the receptionist when we checked in because he only said by verbal and of cause he can’t remember all the details to inform us and didn’t tell us where we can find all informations. * We didn’t buy all inclusive package so we paid for drink by ourselves. The concern was how you motivate the price a small glass of beer 3€which was cheaper than one Fanta 250ml 4€, while the other bars/nice restaurants around there sales about 4€ for 500ml and one Fanta in the same size 2.50-2.90€? * The glass of drink were different every time when we bought from every bars at the hotel and you can never ever know how much it was in the glass. I could understand that it doesn’t matter for customers who buy the all inclusive package but the customers who pay for the drinks have the right to know how much they should have. Btw, the staffs never came with a drink manu and we think that they should have it. * The place around the pools were so small and the chairs were reserved by customer early in the morning before 7 o’clock. We wondered how the hotel staffs allowed some customers reserved the chairs and we found that one customer reserved about 8 chairs for themselves and just only one person sat there for their reservation? * We think that the pools were open too late (10.00-18.00). We booked this hotel because it was advertised as a family hotel and we expected that we would be able to use the pool as fast as we can but it seemed difficult especially to get young children to wait until the pools opened.
