We stayed at The Royal Blue Resort in July and had a fantastic time. The resort feels like a peaceful village – spacious, well-kept, and with a great mix of privacy and social atmosphere. The staff were consistently warm, professional, and genuinely caring. The food was great and the rotating buffet kept things interesting, though drinks were on the pricey side. We also enjoyed a massage and manicure – both excellent. There’s a small shop on-site for basic needs and another store just outside the resort with more variety (no fresh produce, though). Overall, a beautifully run resort with a relaxing and welcoming vibe. We’d happily come back!

What a fantastic experience at the Royal Blue Resort in Crete! From the very first moment, we were warmly welcomed by the incredibly friendly staff. The service was truly outstanding – everything was perfectly arranged. Special thanks to Vasilis Koukias, the manager of the beach bars, among other things. His hospitality is next level. Our suite was spacious, modern, and perfectly clean. The breakfast buffet was impressive, with a huge selection, everything fresh and exceptionally delicious. The resort has several beautiful swimming pools (including adults-only), plenty of sunbeds, and direct access to a beautiful beach. The beach club and the cozy waterfront bar created a luxurious and relaxing atmosphere. We enjoyed every minute and will definitely be back. Highly recommended for anyone seeking peace, comfort, and top-notch service!

The Best!I was with my wife and daughter, it was one of the most successful stays we have spent on vacation. Starting with the staff, who are very friendly, who are very kind and also professional. Kitchen with food for all tastes, fresh and very tasty. The hotel and the rooms are impeccable, they clean and supply water and other things every day. The pools and all the rooms are immaculately clean, the beach by the sea and the water are perfect. We will gladly return to this hotel, our family, and we will tell all our acquaintances what a great opinion we have of this location. Stay healthy, welcoming hosts!
