Blue Bay Resort

Location was lovely and the views were amazing looking out into the sea. The hotel was clean and well equipped with good facilities to use and the staff were very friendly and helpful. We had a beautiful room which was perfect for me and my family to use and our favorite part was the cats that live around the area. Very peaceful resort, quiet and great value. We really hope the cats get looked after as they were so lovely to be able to interact with during our holiday as cat lovers ourselves we would love to return again in the future.

Just had a lovely stay at Blue Bay, the staff from the start were welcoming and helpful. Although we were there at the end of season we enjoyed the entertainment and atmosphere. The location is good, the local bay and village not far, although all the local terrain requires effort both steep hills and stairs. Views are wonderful. Snorkeling in the sea was a highlight as well as Heraklion being only a short journey away. The room was clean and large, buffet was varied and satisfied the whole family. Overall good value, good location and we had a great few days.

Great view,nice hotel with lovely staff. Rooms are big and clean.

We had a really good time at Blue Bay resort. Our family room was clean and perfect for the three of us. Food was really nice and all the staff we met were friendly and helpful.

We have just finished our holiday at Blue Bay Resort, and we can honestly say that we had a fantastic time. We were extremely happy with our stay and would definitely recommend this hotel. Cleanliness – Excellent! The hotel is extremely clean and well maintained. Our room was cleaned every day, and the towels and bed linen were changed daily. Everything was spotless, including our terrace. We didn't see any insects or pests during our stay. The swimming pools were also very clean, with lovely clear water. A big thank you to the housekeeping team for doing such a fantastic job! Staff – Absolutely Wonderful! One of the best things about this hotel is the staff. Everyone is friendly, welcoming, helpful and always smiling. Nothing is too much trouble. A special mention to the bartenders, who make excellent cocktails and drinks. They are generous, friendly and always serve you with a smile. The whole team really makes you feel welcome and well looked after. Food – Fantastic Quality and So Much Choice! We were extremely impressed with the food. The quality was excellent, and there was a huge variety of dishes to suit everyone. There was always a great selection of meat dishes, vegetarian options, pasta, cheeses, salads and many other delicious foods. Whether you love meat or prefer vegetarian food, you will definitely not go hungry here! Breakfast offered a very good selection, although the choices were quite similar each morning. However, dinner was absolutely fantastic, with different dishes every evening. The food was constantly being topped up, so there was always plenty available, even during busy times. And the desserts! There were often around ten different types of cakes and sweet treats to choose from, with different desserts served in the evening. Everything looked lovely and tasted delicious. The freshly squeezed orange juice was particularly good, and there was a wide selection of other drinks available throughout the day. The coffee was fine, although coffee from a proper espresso machine would have been a nice extra. However, we understand that this is not always practical in a large all-inclusive hotel. We personally thanked the chefs because we were genuinely impressed with the quality of the food. They deserve a lot of credit for their hard work! Facilities and Location The swimming pools were lovely, clean and well maintained. We also enjoyed a massage during our stay. The ladies working at the spa were wonderful, professional and friendly. It was a lovely, relaxing experience. The location is also very nice, with beautiful views of the sea and surrounding hills. We really enjoyed the scenery. Rooms – Just One Small Suggestion Our room was very clean, comfortable and well maintained, so we have absolutely no complaints about that. The only thing we would personally improve is the decoration. The rooms are quite simple and could benefit from a little more colour and character. Perhaps some artwork, pictures of Crete or traditional Cretan touches would make the rooms feel warmer and more welcoming. It would be lovely to walk into the room and feel a little more of the local atmosphere. This is purely a personal preference and certainly did not affect our enjoyment of the holiday. Overall – A Fantastic Holiday! We have stayed in different hotels over the years, and Blue Bay Resort certainly deserves its four-star rating. The cleanliness, excellent food, friendly staff and beautiful surroundings made our holiday really enjoyable. A huge thank you to everyone working at the hotel, especially the chefs, housekeeping team, bartenders and restaurant staff. You all work incredibly hard, and it really shows. Would we stay here again? Absolutely, 100%! If we ever return to this part of Crete, we would definitely choose Blue Bay Resort again without hesitation. Thank you for a wonderful holiday! We highly recommend this hotel! ❤️ Irena and Marek 😁
