Beautiful place, lovely welcoming owner and staff. Great pool, bar, restaurant area. Wonderful food. Only downside was the trek up the hill to our room as we were at the very top. Beautiful room but not used much. But then you don’t go on holiday to sit in the room! We will hopefully be back ❤️

I absolutely loved my stay at Creta Blue. I stayed in one of the adult only rooms that had a hot tub on the terrace, overlooking the sea and it was simply magical. The communication and service with hotel staff was easy as can be and everyone was very helpful. I can't recommend this hotel enough!

Quiet and relaxing property up on the cliffs about 25 minutes outside of Heraklion. Great place to get away from the noise and traffic of the city. The rooms are some of the most spacious you will find in the area for the price they offer, although not as modern as the pictures show and a few of the sea view balcony rooms may have their view blocked by the building. There is also not a lot of parking, and you will have to walk up the hill to the rooms, so it's not ideal for anyone out of shape or disabled. I would say for the price, it's an excellent choice for anyone looking for a quiet stay, and there are actually multiple amazing restaurants within walking distance in the quaint and beautiful town of Hersonissos. The pool is also well kept and clean, and the staff is highly accommodating.

Creta Blue is absolutely STUNNING! We were greeted by George the owner of the hotel who is incredibly kind and gracious. You can tell that this hotel is more than a family business, it is a passion project with no details spared. The staff here is wonderful and they really make you feel so comfortable. The rooms are beautiful and it is clear they put a lot of effort into the decor. It feels like a slice of heaven. The views of the ocean are 180 degrees. We had dinner at the restaurant which was fantastic. I highly recommend the shrimp Sagnaki! I would have no hesitation booking this place. It was the nicest accommodation we had in our 2 weeks in Greece!

Creta Blue was a fabulous property run by George and Helen. The view was breathtaking and the rooms were clean and all had balconies and terraces to enjoy the soft music, the pool and watch everyone relaxing with friends. The restaurant ( Blue Moon ) was right there to enjoy the cuisine. They had specialty nights with BBQ and incredible Greek cuisine. We felt safe and appreciated. George was especially knowledgeable and professional. The cleaning staff was efficient and friendly. You can tell they are well taken care of by the management. It was a romantic getaway at a very good price point. Thankyou to everyone who made our trip a fond memory. We flew 10 hours for this experience and is highly recommended. The service given was fleeting but the memories last forever.

Absolutely fabulous place to stay. We had a lovely suite tucked around the back, so was very tranquil. Stunning infinity pool. The hotel is up a steep hill but this means the view is fabulous. The traditional village of Koutoulafari is only 5 or so minutes walk down the hill- laden with traditional tavernas, souvenir shops, a mini golf, car hire places as well as cocktail bars etc. We chose half board which was served at The Blue Moon Restaurant attached to the hotel. The food was amazing.. fresh produce, local meats etc. The waitress Lavinia is the star of the restaurant.

We had a very relaxing and enjoyable week staying at Creta Blue Boutique Hotel. Giorgio”s family and staff could not have made us feel more welcome or valued as customers. The Hotels”s “Blue Moon” restaurant and wine bar was a real surprise as we had not expected such superb food and changed our plans to dine there far more often than we had expected as it afforded great views, atmosphere as well as delicious local food and wine.
