Beautiful views to the sea and spinalonga island. Great food and great service. Everything was perfect, thank you! ##### Jenni Stayed 9 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Neil Jun 28, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The staff at Phaea Blue and the location are what made our trip so pleasurable. The resort feels like a village on the hillside. The area is quiet and the village of Plaka is close by and walkable. We ate their each night and the food in Plaka is superb! We booked a Luxury Bungalow with pool and sea view which was delightful and lovely after a hot day on the beach. Will return. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/66126982-f548-49ae-88a0-35325d735dc0-1751100274157.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/9fe0d52f-646c-48a9-b07a-45c09f1051ba-1751100349738.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/fad4f66a-fe3c-4011-a3af-61ca4a2258d1-1751100363625.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0bfa8308-ee60-4f69-b413-43ab27edda32-1751100378591.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Neil Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Monica Aug 24, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Absolutely wonderful stay! ##### Monica Stayed 6 nights in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David Oct 4, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The property is very nice BUT the staff is what makes this resort OUTSTANDING.

Definitely a five star hotel. ##### Sherri Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mandy May 30, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The setting of this property is stunning. It sits in its own gorgeous bay across from an old leper colony. There are no other hotels in sight, which makes the views from the many balconies within Blue Palace Elounda even more enjoyable. ##### Mandy Stayed 3 nights in May 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Jack Jul 11, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities the staff and servers were very good!

The staff is very friendly - especially the parking staff. There are lots of dining options on the property. The location is great. It is close to Elounda/Plaka, but not too close so it still feels private/peaceful. It has tremendous potential. The breakfast buffet is great - tons of options. Our only complaint is that everything feels very dated. Also, the 'private' pools are not very private. ##### Shannon ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christopher May 29, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities If you're going to be anywhere in the Mediterranean and or the Greek Islands, and are looking to escape, this is a great place to stay. Staff was attentive and accommodating, to say the least. Room was incredible. Two floors, one private balcony, one private pool. Room was on the top of the resort overlooking the water and Spinalonga island. Multiple restaurants on site. Private beach at the bottom. Spa. Don't need much else. ##### Christopher Stayed 4 nights in May 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Ting May 13, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### Good service, poor noise isolation The location is amazing, got a beautiful view and nice swimming pool. The staff are very thoughtful and friendly, they have been well trained to provide high standard hospitality. The downside is the facility, the room is old and the noise isolation is none, you can easily hear every little noise from corridors and every little movement from upstairs, we have to wear earplugs all the nights to have a good sleep. ##### Ting Stayed 4 nights in May 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Acro Wellness Suites - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.ca/Malevizi-Hotels-Acro-Wellness-Suites-Adults-Only.h42005805.Hotel-Information) > > [Stella Island Luxury Resort & Spa - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.ca/Hersonissos-Hotels-Stella-Island-Luxury-Resort-Spa-Adults-Only.h16508136.Hotel-Information) > > [Domes Noruz Chania, Autograph Collection - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.ca/Chania-Hotels-Domes-Noruz-Chania.h15451739.Hotel-Information) > > [Mitsis Selection Laguna](https://www.expedia.ca/Hersonissos-Hotels-Mitsis-Laguna-Resort-Spa-All-Inclusive.h4260878.Hotel-Information) > > [Agapi Beach Resort - Premium All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Malevizi-Hotels-Agapi-Beach-Resort-All-Inclusive.h1056753.Hotel-Information) > > [Peninsula Resort & Spa - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Malevizi-Hotels-Peninsula-Resort-Spa.h4680601.Hotel-Information) > > [Atlantica Caldera Palace - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Hersonissos-Hotels-Atlantica-Caldera-Palace-All-Inclusive.h35181792.Hotel-Information) > > [Minos Imperial Beach Resort Milatos Crete](https://www.expedia.ca/Agios-Nikolaos-Hotels-Minos-Imperial.h660214.Hotel-Information) > > [Out Of The Blue All Inclusive Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Malevizi-Hotels-Out-Of-The-Blue-Capsis-Elite-Resort.h1164026.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Sirenis Punta Cana Resort & Aquagames - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Grand-Sirenis-Punta-Cana-Resort-Aquagames-All-Inclusive.h1691881.Hotel-Information) > > [Abaton Island Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Hersonissos-Hotels-Abaton-Island-Resort-Spa.h20145294.Hotel-Information) > > [Creta Maris Resort - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Hersonissos-Hotels-Creta-Maris-Resort-All-Inclusive.h541819.Hotel-Information) > > [Rimondi Grand Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Rethymno-Hotels-Rimondi-Grand-Resort-Spa.h4925255.Hotel-Information) > > [Lyttos Beach - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Hersonissos-Hotels-Lyttos-Beach-All-Inclusive.h8077194.Hotel-Information) > > [Daios Cove](https://www.expedia.ca/Agios-Nikolaos-Hotels-Daios-Cove-Luxury-Resort-Villas.h3300418.Hotel-Information) > > [Seaside A Lifestyle Resort All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Malevizi-Hotels-Seaside-A-Lifestyle-Resort-All-Inclusive.h2312612.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Halifax](https://www.expedia.ca/Halifax-Hotels.d602873.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Star Beach Village and Water Park](https://www.expedia.ca/Hersonissos-Hotels-Star-Beach-Village-And-Water-Park.h1342145.Hotel-Information) > > [Annabelle Beach Resort - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Hersonissos-Hotels-Annabelle-Beach-Resort-All-Inclusive.h2705193.Hotel-Information) > > [Cretan Dream Resort and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Chania-Hotels-Cretan-Dream-Royal-Hotel.h2336360.Hotel-Information) > > [Grecotel LUXME White](https://www.expedia.ca/Rethymno-Hotels-Grecotel-LUXME-White-Palace-All-Inclusive.h2573709.Hotel-Information) > > [Mitsis Rinela](https://www.expedia.ca/Hersonissos-Hotels-Mitsis-Rinela-Beach-Resort-Spa-All-Inclusive.h2335564.Hotel-Information) > > [Euphoria Resort - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Platanias-Hotels-Euphoria-Resort-All-Inclusive.h21337972.Hotel-Information) > > [Bella Beach - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Hersonissos-Hotels-Bella-Beach-All-Inclusive.h1081456.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [KLM](https://www.expedia.ca/KLM-Flights.cKL.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to Ottawa (YOW)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/yow/calgary-to-ottawa) ### Cars > [Car rentals in Toronto](https://www.expedia.ca/Car-Rentals-In-Toronto.d178314.Car-Rental-Guide) ### Packages > [Galápagos Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Galapagos.d1371.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Mexico](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations/117/Mexico)
