I like this hotel in general. Protaras beach is incredible and people from stuff are extremely friendly. I liked the most of things from this hotel. Food is very descent so I didn't experience any issues in this hotel. This place is made to enjoy. Hotel is in renovation at the moment so it will be just better and better in future, I guess.

The Blue Ivy Hotel & Suites, hotel in Protaras

Boasting a fitness center and free WiFi, The Blue Ivy Hotel & Suites is located in Protaras, 3.1 mi from National Forest Park Kavo Gkreko and a 2-minute walk from Sunrise Beach.

Where do i start 🤔 1) when we first arrived we got a free upgrade to a junior suite. 2) The hotel was spotless clean 3) Hotel personnel are welcoming, charming and very nice (All of them no exception) 4) room is new, comfortable and beautiful. 5) pool super relaxing 6) kids pool different from adults pool so that people without kids will not be bothered. 7) breakfast is very generous , tasty and way too many choices 8) we asked for a late check out but they were not able to provide it since there was an early check in right after us however, Nicos (the manager) offered us a free lunch and open drinks because he could not accomodate our late check out. Eventhough we were not upset at all and were not looking for any compensation. By far this is one of the best hotels i have been to in terms of comfort and service, both my husband and i highly recommend it. We did not want to leave. We will come back again and we will come with our kids.

    I went to Protaras for work. I didn't like it.

    I went to Protaras for work. I didn't like it. It is touristic and of poor quality in general. You don't feel like you are in Cyprus; it's just a resort. Many waiters and assistants in restaurants and stores are foreigners, and they don't speak a word of Greek!

    This a very touristic place.

    This a very touristic place. I was there 2 times, both in low season. In November the town is almost dead - no tourists, so, it is difficult to find a place to eat, but if you know where, it is a nice time to visit. The prices goes lower, beautiful beaches, nice hotels with spa. Highly recommend to visit in October-November.

    An area that seems more British than Greek and sadly mostly closed up at the beginning of November apart from the pubs. The beaches are good with great swimming and snorkelling but extremely busy. Restaurants were generally disappointing although search hard and there are a few hidden taverns and coffee shops. Most buildings are concrete (not stone as in the villages, new build type), roads and transport links are good.

    Great place for families or 30+ people.

    Great place for families or 30+ people. It has plenty of good bars and restaurants but no under 30 craziness. You can get a drink at 2am but without any idiots. Never saw a drunk or out of control group in my 4 weeks there. If you want crazy go to Ayia Napa. You want fun, friendly, beaches and a good evening life, go to Protaras.

    Fantastic place, lots of bars, restaurants, good food, lively bars and some slightly quieter. Sports on at some of the bars for football etc. Some tribute acts (although not my thing) Elvis, Cher, Meatloaf etc etc etc. Jokers square had a live band on most nights playing rock music, great bar, great food also and a friendly welcome. Cheers bar brilliant for drinks and breakfasts, owner very friendly and great staff, inside area (you'll need it during the hot days) and an outside area for evening with live entertainments on some times. Lots of other bars we enjoyed but cannot remember the names sorry. There is a small bar on the beach that serves drinks in real melon and pineapple shells called the rising beach bar which is brilliant for a drink after a day at the beach. Also a place called Zorbas which does great food and drinks, well worth a visit (near Fig Tree Bay-ish) The whole area from end-to-end is about 1 mile walk (maybe less) so no need for transport really, however taxis are very expensive if you need to use them (sore knee so we used them a few times) circa 10 euros for what was about a 1 mile journey! You can jump on a bus to Ayia Napa if that's your thing, I don't know how much though, but they are quite frequent. We loved the place, but we have been 7 times!!

    The food, the staff, the premises, the view, the location, the hospitality, the pool with live shows, etc. It was just amazing, it made our honeymoon so special. Also the theme dinner buffet nights are generous, tasty and come at a good price. The location is super convenient, very close to the beach, as well as, to the Protaras main road where you can find very good restaurants and shops. There is also a supermarket and a pharmacy directly next to the hotel. We highly recommend this place for any young couples or families with children.

We were on all inclusive and we ate and drink as much as we wanted, we also ate pizzas, burgers, nuggets, chips and ice cream between meals. The bar at the reception area will served us till midnight with a smile, and they offer the best cocktails ever (grass hopper cocktail is the best 😉) the bar tenders are great and very friendly. Location is very good too. Highly recommended!!!

    A great hotel right on the beach. Could do with new carpeting and a pick of paint internally. Beds comfy, view good. Needs some sort of gate to stop people walking in and using sunbeds. Also towels were out on sunbeds by 6.30am. This should be stopped. Only went B&B but food.was ok, pool bar was good and prices reasonable. The hotel is right in The middle of The Strip in Protaras with great bars, restaurants and beaches on the doorstep. I would stay there again.

    Best accomodation in Cyprus. We were lucky to find this beautiful apartment available during our stay in the beginning of March 2023 (off-season). Beautiful winter garden, panoramic sea view. Apartment is well equipped. Only few metres to the sea. Protaras is a lively place during the touristic season, but Cyprus offers many other places to visit. Agia Napa is very close (15 min). Self check in was very easy. No problem if you arrive at night.

    Nice place to stay in Protaras. First line from the best beach of Protars. Location is really perfect. Also the city center is just 200 meters away. Hotel has a lot of comfortable sunbeds in front of beach and near the pool. Food on the breakfast and at dinner is enough different and quality. I like different menu type for dinner for every weekday (Mexican, Japanize, Cyprus and so on). Pool was clean and not overcrowded, when we have stayed.

The apartman is very well equiped with everything you could ask for and very spaceus. Every room has a private bathroom and access to the balcony. It is right in the center of Protaras, with a Best Buy Supermarket right below. About 1 minute walk from the beach.

After visiting quite a few hotels in Cyprus the food was by far the best we’ve had, really tasty and lots of choice. The staff were really friendly and the kids entertainers were beyond amazing! The kids loved them and they always put loads of activities on for all ages. We can’t wait to visit again.

    Great location. Awesome beach 2 mins walk from hotel. Lots of activities offered by hotel for free especially for kids. 10min drive to Protaras main center & 15mins drive to Aya Napa main center. Hotel is very family oriented. Staff is friendly & professional. I'd recommend renting a car from Larnaca Airport as public transportation is not very feasible in general.

    Location is great: it's right on the shoreline but not on the beach, so you get to enjoy the breeze and the view without the noise of all the stuff happening on the beach. Protaras beach (arguably, the best beach in Cyprus) is literally 100m away. Rooms are good in size. Breakfast is good. The hotel's restaurants by the sea is pretty nice.

    Prostrana soba, u blizini jedne od najlepših plaža u tom delu Kipra. Veliki parking, autobuska stanica ispred hotela, mirno mesto, nije bučno.
