Blue Dolphin Hotel

It’s a very good choice for family with kids. Hotel has a private blue flag beach with sand and stones, but it’s great for kids. The beach bar and taverna are good choice if you get hungry or thirsty during the day and the prices are affordable.

The hotel is not bad. The rooms are quite big and modern, and they have large terraces. The layout of the bathroom is a bit awkward, especially the shower, which is not properly separated from the rest of the room — this is not ideal. However, despite these minor inconveniences, it's acceptable. The really disappointing part, which I do not recommend, is the dining experience. The dining room is quite loud and crowded, with people piling enormous amounts of food on their plates, much of which obviously ends up wasted. The waiters are completely overwhelmed, constantly clearing away uneaten food from the tables, and the prices for drinks are outrageous. The food is mediocre — not terrible, but nothing special either. Unless you're okay with seeing lots of food go to waste, I would suggest dining elsewhere. The atmosphere feels more like the canteen of a large factory. It's clear that the hotel management should take steps to improve this aspect.

Payed for half board and didnt even get drinks during dinner which we had to pay extra for (soft drinkes were somewhere around 4-5 euros and a big watter bottle was 3 euros) Morning breakfasts were very plain and the same always with a very minor change in a single item and sometimes unhygienic, the same person making the omlets would sneeze on their gloves, not change them and keep making food even after touching their face. Lunch is what we resorted to buying if we were hungry, the items on the menus of the nearby restaurant are decent, of course pricey which a normal sandwich with potatoes or a burger would cost around 13-14 euros (the cheapest thing being a ham toast that had cheese and fries and was 5 euros) Dinners were nicer but they always lacked something that stood out, food was also not labeled (some of them) and we did have times where we were doubting on what we were eating. Dessert were all disappointing and were so basic, same type of dessert just made a bit differently coated with sugar and almost all of them had vanilla filling. They also didnt shy away from putting things on display that may have been from a day ago, bread, sweets or something else The staff is mostly welcoming except one of the waiters which was rude The pool is nice but can we overcrowded with families and children The gym is nice and equipped with a multifunctional smith machine The beaches weren't as what we were expecting of a greek beach, it wasn't clear water and was overruned by algie. The beach also had a lot of people which sometimes felt very occupied and small spaced,also was a bit far away from the resort The market was a place that we frequently went to and it was a decent one where there are cheaper watter bottles (50 cents), cool drinks and snacks. The shows were just ok and the performing staff did what they could to keep kids entertained. No one here respects the rules, people leave towels to occupy chairs on the beach which was against the rules of the beach/resort and the staff never did anything about that. The only thing that was nice about this whole experience would be the nature, beach bar that had a nice view and the gym. Would I come back here for another vacation or recommend it to someone else? No. If you are looking for a more quiet place, more food varieties that have drinks included in the payment with good desserts and somewhere where it isnt packed with children and people or have to wait in line so you could dine in, this place isn't for you. Definitely not worth the money and you'd be better off to somewhere else.
