We had a wonderful family vacation at the Blue Palace hotel. The stunning views of the Aegean Sea were a highlight, and we loved the spacious Maisonette suite with a private pool. However, the long check-in process after our travel was frustrating and needs improvement. Overall, the hotel offered excellent service, delicious food, and plenty of activities, making it a great choice for families visiting Crete.

Our stay at this resort was nothing short of magical. The views of the Aegean Sea and Spinalonga island were breathtaking, and the pools and beach provided a serene setting for relaxation. While the service was generally attentive, we experienced a few hiccups with forgotten orders that took away from an otherwise perfect experience. The dining options were diverse and delicious, though some meals exceeded our expectations while others could be improved. Overall, a lovely spot for a family getaway or romantic retreat.

I had a lovely stay at the hotel, enjoying the beautiful views of Spinalonga from my room and the extensive breakfast offerings. However, the pool area was quite crowded at times, which took away from the serene atmosphere I had hoped for. Additionally, while the staff was mostly attentive, my arrival experience felt a bit rushed and could use some improvement. The overall value is good, although I expected a bit more given the price range.
Rooms
7.0
The room was spacious and nicely appointed, but it didn't have a view of Spinalonga as promised, which was disappointing. Additionally, the layout felt cramped due to the furniture arrangement, and the sun barely reached our patio in the afternoon.
Service

Service was generally friendly, especially in the restaurant and bar areas, but I did encounter some rude staff members during peak times, which was unexpected at a luxury hotel.
Location

The location offered stunning sea views and easy access to nearby attractions, although there was some noise from traffic that detracted from peaceful moments on the terrace.
Dining

Breakfast was a highlight with a great variety and quality, but the dinner options could have been more diverse, and I felt a little squeezed with the half-board setup limiting choices.
Facilities

The pool area was beautiful but overcrowded during peak hours, which affected the relaxation I was seeking. The beach service was attentive, making for a more enjoyable experience on the sand.
