The location is peaceful and quiet, about 45–50 minutes from Chania (CHQ) airport, with plenty of restaurants and shops nearby. The absolute highlight was the staff – they were genuinely some of the friendliest and most helpful we’ve ever met. Communication before, during, and even after our stay was excellent, and they always made us feel so welcome. The hotel itself is very clean and calm, best suited for couples or adults. My partner loved relaxing by the pool, while I made use of the small gym (don’t expect heavy weights, but it’s great for a hotel gym). Breakfast was really good, with enough variety even for us as vegetarians/vegans. The only small thing that could be improved would be having a few more veggie/vegan options on the lunch menu, but with so many restaurants in town, it wasn’t a problem. They don’t do dinner, but again, the local options were fantastic. Overall, it’s perfect for a 5–6 day relaxing holiday. We will definitely be coming back in the future and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful break in Crete. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/6bff7e73-a1e3-4d46-9968-f88c52d9a701-1755780972068.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/7bf95693-a929-44ab-a0e8-e4c01e4efbf5-1755781013228.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/ebbb2f4c-f541-44fd-9fd5-76bc077c0f45-1755781013081.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/9342f78d-d7e9-4858-ac57-8f5fba7ac9f8-1755781013233.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Das Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Karen Krischelle Jul 27, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The staff at Blue Elephant went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and ensure our stay was a good as possible.

Great new contemporary hotel! We had a spectacular ocean view from our room 44.
