loved everything expect for the haven area. no access to beach pier for swimming.

Everything is just fabulous there - amazing locations, best drinks & food, lovely staff everywhere, everything runs smoothly.

The location, the view, the superb staff, the view (again), the food - both in the buffet restaurant and even more so in the "specialty" taverna restaurant. The staff deserve a particular mention and accolades. Without exception all of them made us feel as if they truly care about our comfort and well-being throughout our (too short) stay. Kostas, the concierge manager, in particular should serve as an example to any hotel or resort staff anywhere in the world.

Beautiful hotel overall. Room was huge with a really nice bathroom and balcony with sea view. The beach was really nice despite being pebbles - they have cleverly put decking down to make it easy to access and you can get into the water via the pontoon so we were really happy (lovely to not have sand getting everywhere!)

This property is stunning and has first class service to match, four amazing restaurants and all the bells and whistles. The drinks were good, the food was good, they even left face masks and slippers at out bedside for turn down service. It was amaze! Loved every minute of it, oh and the breakfast buffet was not to be missed, there was literally everything you could imagine and more. Thank you Blue Palace for an unforgettable stay!

Everything else was just perfect. Location is breathtaking, quality of the service is amazing, great activities all around. Quality food in all restaurant and at breakfast. That was an amazing week.

Lovely location and views are amazing. Clean room. Comfortable bed. Beach is nice and beach beds are nice. Most staff are very friendly snd helpful.

Beautiful large room with views of Spinalonga island/the water (made for an incredible sunrise). Lovely service, great private beach that we used daily for swimming, tanning, pool (saltwater), paddleboarding etc. They helped us arrange activities and excursions like a traditional kaike boat ride with Greek lunch on board to visit the surrounding areas, taxi rides to/from wherever we needed to go including visits to Knossos palace etc. Several restaurants on site all of high quality and daily breakfast buffet was huge and fresh. Large resort and was super comfortable/fun for our babymoon.

Wonderful location and exceptional facilities, super friendly staff, breathtaking views from our room, great beach with clean and clear water and jetty for ease of use, superbe breakfast, great restaurants on site, lots of restaurants in Plaka, Eluonda and Agios Nikolaos (try Gioma Meze) within 10-20 minutes car drive. This hotel is definitely a treat.

Fantastic resort. Every convenience attended to, every detail considered. The crowning achievement was in our opinion the "funicular" to the beach - or 'beach elevator'. The resort sits on a hillside, with wonderful views of the bay from every room. It has a beautiful private pebbled beach - but alas it is a hike from hotel to beach (and on the other side of the small coastal road). Solution: the 'beach elevator', directly from lobby to beach. Genius. There's a huge pool by the beach, and another one at the lobby level - but I suggest to get yourself a room with a private pool - worth the extra cost in my opinion. If you're coming here, might as well. The beach is lovely and the water great. During our stay the surf was mirror calm the whole time. I imagine that it is mostly like that because of the enclosed bay. The small village of Plaka is a short walking distance - and is surprisingly sweet, with many great Tavernas right on the water.
