Blue Elephant Boutique Hotel & Spa - Adults Only - Almyrida (Crete)

- Fine sea views, excellent breakfast, clean, attentive staff

- Pool closes too early, private pool too cold

The breakfast was rich and with a charming seaview, the staff was affable. The service was great, including an early check-in.

It was stunningly beautiful and clean hotel, exactly as described, with really kind staff and unbeatable location in a quiet area. The service was excellent and the pool was great. Truly enjoyed my stay, had a very good experience.

The Superior Studio was a highlight with fine views over the bay. The rooftop restaurant provided an excellent culinary experience that's hard to forget.

The hotel has its quirks. It sits on a hill, especially with about 60 steps to navigate to reach the pool and bar. The pool ladder isn't friendly for those with mobility issues. The balcony lights are on a timer, which might cramp your style during late evenings, and there's a lack of privacy without net curtains. The bed was also on the firm side, so if you prefer plush bedding, you might want to look elsewhere.

perfect location in the really comfortable area, very close to the beach, restaurants in the village in the evening and a bay.

Almyrida vibes 🌊

Had a blast, man! The staff were super friendly and even helped plan a surprise with rose petals for our honeymoon. Brekkie was lekker every morn, something different and delish! Was nice chilling by our own pool, but damn, it was a bit chilly!

Could defs do with heated pools. They were freezing!

Super comfy room with fine ocean view. Main pool closes at 6pm, limiting evening enjoyment.

Loved the fine sea views, but the room pool was way too cold for me.

We really loved the fine views from our room, but the private pool was way too cold for a proper dip. The breakfast was a treat every morning though!

The setting of Blue Elephant Boutique Hotel & Spa, Adults Only is a true paradise! The amazing views over Almyrida Bay from my Superior Studio were fine. Breakfast each morning was a good spread of delicious options, and the rooftop restaurant offered an really good culinary experience. The staff were pretty good too.

No major complaints.

The amazing sea views created a fine backdrop for my stay, and the freshly brewed coffee at breakfast was a good treat each morning. I appreciated the spacious room, well-appointed with pleasant bathroom products. Accessing certain areas required navigating numerous steps, which could be challenging for some, and the private pool was uncomfortably cold.

An Elegant Retreat with Fine Views

The spa treatments were relaxing and rejuvenating. Be mindful of the restaurant's ambiance, which lacks charm but offers excellent food. Consider dining earlier to avoid the rush and enjoy the atmosphere. Perfect for couples seeking a serene getaway.

Couldn't recommend more for a brief pit stop

Immaculate room, attentive staff, the room was equipped with a tv and the location was conveniently just 12 km from the nearest airport, making it an ideal spot for exploring the surrounding areas.

No issues.

The stunning views from our room enhanced our experience, and the perfect cleanliness stood out. Breakfast was consistently delicious, although the private plunge pool was disappointingly cold. Still, the attentive staff, especially at breakfast, made our stay nice.

The hotel staff were super friendly, giving us awesome local tips. The morning views from our balcony were perfect for coffee. We visited the nearby beach and the charming town for some fun. Breakfast was always delicious and filling!

Just be mindful, the main pool closes at 6 PM, so plan your swims accordingly!
