What Guests Say About Their Stay

Our first trip to Crete couldn’t have been more perfect! We stayed in the Junior Suite with a private pool for five nights, and from the moment we arrived it truly felt like home. The property is absolutely stunning! We actually found it hard to leave because it was so peaceful and beautiful. The private pool made our stay feel extra special, and every corner of the hotel was immaculate and thoughtfully designed. One of the biggest surprises was the food. We had planned to explore different restaurants around the island, but the meals at the hotel were so delicious that we ended up eating most of our meals on the property. Every dish was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. Highly recommend the seafood orzo at Alati. The staff were incredibly welcoming and made us feel comfortable throughout our stay. Everything about this place exceeded our expectations, and it made our first visit to Crete unforgettable.

Beautiful luxury hotel with a perfect location, and intimate settings. Nice rooms and amenities. Excellent service everywhere, very efficient at the pool and beach bars. Very good breakfast, upscale buffet. Terrific a-la-carte restaurants with exceptional staff. Nice spa and excellent massages (Maria and George). Only one downside : a very slow check-in process. Highly recommended.

The hotel is fantastic and the staff always went above and beyond. We dined à la cart every evening and they had great options for us (1x vegetarian and 1x vegan) and they remembered every time. We received a room upgrade on arrival and the private suite with its own pool was mind blowing and very private. We genuinely loved everything about the resort. The only minor suggestion is to offer a water sport or two (sailing catamaran or even a SUP). Otherwise fantastic and relaxing stay. We are desperate to go back already

Beautiful hotel, staff are so friendly and helpful. Facilities great, hotel feel is laid back and luxurious but not fussy. Very clean and beautifully kept grounds. Location is great 30 minute walk to beautiful little town Panormo which has plenty restaurants, bars and a few shops. 30 minute drive into the city of Rethymno. I highly recommend this hotel for a relaxed base to explore Crete, we stayed for 1 week and felt we could have easily stayed another few days.

We had a wonderful holiday at the Royal Blue. We arrived on a late flight and there was a problem with our suite so we were upgraded. We could not believe our luck, sheer luxury. The staff were so friendly, the dining experience excellent and we just felt thoroughly spoiled all week. Would love to return.

It was a great hotel, lovely and clean. Well presented and great food and friendly staff. Would definitely visit again. Staff were very accommodating given it was our honeymoon. Although child friendly it was very much almost all adults and the few children and young people around were not disruptive. Some small details could do with touch ups plaster cracked, flaking, cracked steps etc

Lovely hotel, in a stunning beachfront location, with a private beach. Wonderfully attentive staff throughout the hotel, in particular Anna who worked around the pool, and in the restaurant in the evenings was fabulous. The buffet options in the main restaurant were pretty good for breakfast and dinner. And the other restaurants - which you pay extra for, had truly delicious food.. in all of them as. Despite the hotel being full, it never felt busy. Evening entertainment could be better, the singer we saw a couple of times unfortunately was not the best. All in all a fantastic stay!

This was the resort we needed to kick-start our honeymoon the right way. They have it all, golf-buggy door service, multiple pools, day beds and sun beds, cocktails by the pool, multiple restaurants and bars, buffet breakfast. The bed was a little firm but our experience here was still very amazing. The staff are so helpful and so kind, we would gladly come back!
