PHĀEA Blue is a wonderful hotel. Very stylish with nice rooms: neat and practical with comfortable beds, nice terras and private pool. Room service was on all levels. The whole staff are friendly and helpful. Warm and efficient reception at the check in. Good location with private beach and villages nearby. Excellent food served by a top team. The Greek cuisine at its best. The entire management was always present or available. The front manager, Lina Stratsiou, had drawn up a program of activities adapted to our wishes. Diners at the Antheos and the Blue Door, wine tasting in the garden, a farmer-to-table evening in the organic garden , private boat tour with bbq (the best bbq we ever had😉), visit of Spinalonga island. Thanks to the whole staff everything went smoothly and enjoyable!!

Another amazing stay in this heavenly place. The atmosphere of this hotel is truly unique and the hotel design, lush gardens in which the rooms and bungalows are hidden and the beach makes it unparalleled all around. The gardens make all the atmosphere so quiet and peaceful and the interior design is beautiful. What makes it even more is the team which is the same year on year and makes you feel like coming home. Many thanks to Kallioppi from Guest Services who was amazing in accommodating our stay to make it great, the concierge team who helped organise a surprise on arrival and of course the beach club team Voula, Ilias and Stavros who year on year are like seeing family.

We had the most wonderful stay at Phaea Blue ,a truly beautiful hotel, impressive in every way, and absolutely spotless. What really made our trip special was the people. Every single member of the team went above and beyond to make sure we felt comfortable and welcome. We visited with our 5-month-old baby, and everyone was so kind, patient, and genuinely caring. A special mention to Konstantinos, the hotel manager, who personally checked in on us every single day. Everyone’s warmth, professionalism, and genuine care made us feel truly looked after , after 5 days they felt like family! For me, the ultimate hotel test is whether I can shower without flip-flops and here, I absolutely could! Everything was spotless, and the attention to detail in every corner of the hotel was remarkable. The beach was stunning, the atmosphere relaxing, and the whole experience was perfect from start to finish. We only wish we could have stayed longer. Highly recommend, and we will definitely be back!

It is amongst my personal top 10 hotels I have stayed at. Decor was amazing and the setting was beautiful. The rooms were spacious and comfortable and were kept clean with towels that were expected of a five star hotel. All the staff went the extra mile and management were present and available. Breakfast was truly a wonderful experience as was lunch and dinner. Only thing I would criticize is the lack of bar service at the pool area. The beach facilities and service were excellent. We enjoyed the movie theater which was comfortable and professional equipped. Well done to the team
