Doesn't feel like a 4 stars hotel at all, room decor inexistant, dated bathroom. The food was really not something special, just alright, and the drinks of the all inclusive disappointing. Not what I expected

Staying at this hotel is amazing. The location of the cliffs of Agia Pelagia is probably one of the best sights on the island. Also the staff os very helpful and friendly and gives you a 5 star treatment. Only downside are the rooms. If you book a cheap room in the side building, please make sure you bring earplugs. The walls are very thin, and you can hear other people in the rooms and around the building very well!

A lovely break!
Such a lovely break. Stayed here for 6 nights with my husband and 2 children. Can honestly say it was great. Staff friendly and helpful-learned our names, lovely to our children. The food was great- lots of options and well thought out. Little pebble beach a few minutes walk. I would say if you have any mobility issues be cautious as the hotel is set on a hill, lots of steps. Would definitely recommend!

Hotel for relax near Heraklion
10min walk to a beach where there are some restaurants and supermarkets. 10min drive to a PADI diving center. You can also relax by the pool. The full board price is 25 euro per day which is quite reasonable. You can also enjoy the sunset in the bar!

Blue Bay resort holiday
Lovely resort, a bit remote, but if you want a relaxing time then it’s perfect. Only 30 minutes to Heraklion airport by taxi and slightly longer to the town by local bus. Good choice of pools and plenty of available sun beds. Stayed all inclusive and the choice of food and drink was good. There was a fair selection of evening entertainment on site. Would visit again.

A great resort holiday.
This resort offers nice rooms with effective air-conditioning, and a good all-inclusive package. The food is nicely prepared and there's quite a bit of variety. The setting is attractive and quiet, and the beach is close. The multi-lingual staff are pleasant and helpful. Evening entertainment is reasonable. There is limited car parking at the resort, but if the car park is full you can park in the road. Heraklion and Knossos are 30-40 minutes' drive away. The gym can get a bit warm, as they are frugal with the air-con, but it is otherwise not bad at all. This is a very good resort with no major flaws. You can eat well, relax and explore without any stress. Obviously, nothing is perfect, and there are few areas in which Blue Bay could improve- bearing in mind the very high quality of most of its offering, and the fact that there are more expensive options. Firstly, the wi-fi is only in the lobby, and can get slow at times. Secondly, some of the rooms are in buildings that leave you needing to climb a number of steep stairs to get to the main complex. Thirdly, one or two of the sports facilities need improvement: the tennis court is a rough tarmac court with a basketball hoop on the baseline at each end (so you can't hit serves or overheads from the middle!), and the miniature golf has about 5 holes, some of which are covered in tree debris. Finally, there are few English language TV channels-- but then you don't go there to watch TV!

We returned almost a week ago after having a fantastic holiday at this hotel. The staff are very welcoming, hotel is kept clean, wide range of food available, always managed to get a sunbed, nice walk to three beaches.

Lovely 10 days at Blue Bay all inclusive. The hotel itself and the quality of the service was great. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff and they should be commended for their efforts. The food was up to a good standard and there was a decent amount of choice. Bob Marley got a bit repetitive every morning on the pool bar sound system but only a minor thing.

Great location, choose your room carefully.
Had a lovely week. We were on B&B terms although most of the hotel seemed to be on an all inclusive basis. Breakfasts were ok, reasonable selection, seen worse. We had quiet rooms in a annex up the hill from the main hotel. Just as well as the permanent disco music blaring out around the main pool would have been very disturbing. We had to ask the hotel staff to do a few minor things but they responded well. Great views across the bay.

Not authentic Greece
As an English/ Greek couple using the hotel to attend a wedding and also to celebrate our own wedding anniversary, it was disappointing to find a hotel which was denying Greece. We only found one member of staff who spoke Greek at reception. From the hotel site we were certainly not expecting a package holiday type hotel where pool beds are grabbed at 8 oclock in the morning. The resort was described as a 'small lovely village' and 'authentic Greece' but Russian was the main language and the 'village' was a series of bars/restaurants right on the sand. Only the beach umbrellas of the famous Mononaftis bay were visible from the hotel due to the square, cement buildings built on the hillside in front. Wi-Fi reception was only available if you hung off the balcony ( a fact known to the staff) and our Superior Sea view only had a sea view if you stood up, since the balcony wall was made of stone! So a relaxing evening at our Sea View room was really spent looking at the sky or leaning over the balcony. Having said that, the staff at the hotel were superb - particularly Maria at Reception and Alex at the bar.
