Reviews and Ratings
I had a fantastic time at the Royal Blue Resort and Spa, which really felt like an idyllic village rather than just a hotel. The stunning pools and beautiful landscaping added to the overall experience, while the dining options were diverse and delicious. Although my room left a lot to be desired, feeling quite tired and noisy at times, the exceptional service and warm atmosphere made up for it. Overall, despite a few hiccups, it was a beautifully relaxing getaway.
The hotel had a modern feel and was clean, but I faced quite a few issues during my stay. While the location was fantastic, right by the sea with plenty of pools, the dining experience left much to be desired. The service was a bit hit-and-miss, especially during breakfast. It’s a good spot if you value modern aesthetics, but some aspects definitely need improvement.
I had a fantastic time at the Royal Blue hotel! The staff truly elevated my experience, making me feel welcomed and cared for from the moment I arrived. The room with a private pool was exquisite, but there were some concerns with the dining areas being disrupted by flies. The variety and quality of food were exceptional, especially at breakfast. While the pools were beautiful and well-maintained, I felt some outdoor dining experiences could use improvement in cleanliness.
Staying at the Royal Blu Hotel was a delightful experience. The clean and spacious rooms, complete with a perfect private pool, offered a wonderful retreat. The service was attentive, although at times it felt a bit overwhelmed during busy hours. The location allowed for easy access to nearby attractions, but it could be a bit remote for those wanting to explore more independently. Dining options were diverse and delicious, particularly the breakfast buffet and poolside lunches. Overall, a fantastic place for relaxation and family fun, though a little more attention in service could enhance the experience.
The hotel offers a charming stay with a modern Cretan style, and the service was undoubtedly excellent. The location provides a constant cooling breeze, making the pool area pleasant even on hot days. However, the dining options could use some improvement as they weren't quite what I'd expect at a 5-star resort, and the room view was limited. Luckily, the price felt reasonable for what we received.
I had a wonderful stay, primarily enjoying the lovely pool area and the high-quality dining options available. However, while the room was comfortable, it felt a bit outdated. The service from the staff was attentive and friendly, but the issues with room maintenance were disappointing. Overall, it was a pleasant getaway despite some shortcomings.
The hotel is nestled in a rather remote area, which offers a peaceful atmosphere but makes it less convenient for exploring Chania and Heraklion. Our room was comfortable and we appreciated the friendly service from the staff, which made our stay enjoyable. However, the dining options didn't quite meet our expectations for a five-star resort, and while the facilities were decent, they felt a bit outdated in some parts.
Overall, my stay was quite pleasant, with a clean and comfortable room and friendly staff. The hotel has a stunning location, but the dining experience wasn't ideal and lacked variety. I also appreciated the quiet beach nearby. The value for money was decent, although a few things like the Wi-Fi at extra cost could be improved.
Our stay on the beautiful island of Crete was truly memorable. The hotel was thoughtfully designed, maintaining traditional Cretan charm while providing modern comforts. We loved the diverse dining options and the warm, welcoming service. However, the coffee at breakfast could be improved, and the indoor gym was a bit small. Overall, it was a delightful experience that we would recommend to others.
I had a pretty good experience at the hotel. The location is delightful, right by the sea, and the ambiance is beautifully decorated in typical Greek style. The rooms were spacious and offered comfort, but I did find it a bit frustrating that the tea and coffee supplies weren't replenished during my stay. The service was top-notch, especially from Maria, who made my stay easier with her attentiveness. Overall, it's a great place, but a few improvements on dining and room amenities could elevate it further.
