The Blue Ivy Hotel And Suites

Best experience ever going every year will definately be there also next year friendly staff very clean nice food too many choices for breakfast

The Blue Ivy Hotel is everything you could want from a hotel—and so much more. From the moment we arrived until the day we left, we felt genuinely looked after. The location is perfect, just a five-minute walk to the strip in one direction and five minutes to the beach in the other, making it easy to enjoy everything Protaras has to offer. What really makes this hotel special is the people. Nicos, the manager, and every single member of staff—from reception and housekeeping to the chefs, waiting staff and bar team—were absolutely fantastic. Everyone greeted us with a smile, and nothing ever seemed too much trouble. It was clear that Nicos genuinely cares about both his guests and his staff. You could see how happy everyone was working there, and during the welcome meeting we learnt that many of the team have worked with him for years, which says a lot. Nicos was always visible around the hotel, had an open-door approach, and always found time to chat with us, making everyone feel valued. Our first impression of the hotel was wonderful. After arriving on a late flight, we were welcomed with a refreshing drink and fresh rolls, which was such a thoughtful touch. Every time we walked through reception, we were greeted with a friendly smile and hello, and the beautiful scent throughout the reception area made it feel even more welcoming. Our room 324 was modern, spacious and very clean with a nice view. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the bathroom was stocked with lovely toiletries. One of our favourite little touches was returning each evening to find delicious homemade biscuits with a thoughtful card waiting for us. It really made us feel special. I'm usually not someone who spends time around hotel pools, but the adults-only pool area completely changed my mind. It was spotless, peaceful and beautifully maintained. The pool was the perfect size, the water temperature was just right, and it was easy to get in and out of. There were plenty of sunbeds available, and the relaxed atmosphere made it a lovely place to unwind. The food deserves a special mention because it was simply outstanding. Without a doubt, it was the best food we've ever eaten in a hotel. Everything was freshly prepared, with an incredible variety to choose from. The chefs were clearly passionate about what they created, and they should be very proud. We especially loved the Cypriot night, which was a real highlight of our holiday. Thank you, Nicos, for encouraging us to experience your wonderful restaurant. The entertainment was very relaxing - just right for us. It complemented the relaxed atmosphere of the hotel perfectly rather than overwhelming it. Our favourite was the violinist at the welcome evening, who created such a lovely atmosphere. All of the entertainment throughout our stay added to the hotel's calm and welcoming vibe. A special mention also has to go to the bartender, who made lovely Piña Coladas! Overall, Blue Ivy is a hotel that truly understands hospitality. Nicos and his incredible team go above and beyond to make every guest feel welcome and cared for, and it shows in everything they do. It's rare to find a hotel where every member of staff is so genuinely friendly and passionate about what they do. We had an amazing holiday and can't wait to return. Thank you, Nicos, and the whole Blue Ivy team, for making our stay so memorable. See you again soon! Kim & Nick
