Creta Blue Boutique Hotel

TripAdvisor Review
Greece, Europe
Hersonissos

Authenticity and Hospitality is the greatest luxury a visit to Crete's picturesque and historic village of Koutouloufari can offer.

And no place delivers the experience like Creta Blue Suites. The comfort of feeling at home, surrounded by precious details has been our key philosophy, the luxury of discreet elegance and guest service has made this incredible hotel where well-being meets luxury-resort getaway with spectacular views of the Aegean sea and an amazing restaurant on site, with the best local and international wines. We at Creta Blue understand luxury is more than opulent interiors, exquisite service and iconic addresses. True luxury is the gift of unforgettable experiences. It's that moment when you see, hear, taste, touch or feel something as if for the very first time. Capturing that instant in a memory is the hallmark of the very best experiences. And it's our privilege to help you experience this each time you're our guest.

Many of our guests return year after year to carry on this memorable experience with us.We have always been ready to listen to our guests, anticipating their needs and interpreting their desires. Your stay at our hotel is our opportunity to show you Crete the way our island should be experienced – through the eyes of a local family.

Wonderful Cretan Stay

The hotel is beautiful and we had such a lovely and relaxing stay. We enjoyed delicious Cretan food and wines and have special memories to look back on.

The staff are a credit to the owner and to the hotel. They work so hard and always greeted us and guests with such a welcoming and friendly approach.

I’m sure we will visit again in the not-too-distant future.

Lovely Hotel For a Couple

Creta Blue is a relaxed hotel, just the place to chill and recharge. Very clean room and facilities, with amazing staff!

The staff are all hard working and welcoming, from George to the cleaning ladies. A special mention to Star the ‘I do any job man’ who we have seen him with his toolbox, pool net, helping behind the bar, delivering luggage and generally doing anything that was needed; including being helpful and friendly to guests.

We had a Junior Suite which was directly off the pool, a fantastic position. The room was large with lots of plug sockets, plenty of clothes hangers and drawers/shelves for clothes. The bathroom is large and a separate room, therefore idea for privacy if sharing with a friend. The room had a mini fridge and some cutlery & crockery, with a travel size kettle. No tea/coffee etc. was provided and no iron in the room. Pool towels were provided in the room and shower towels changed daily.

At the time we were staying, padded sun loungers were always available. Being a small hotel, there was no pool side service, but I did see the lady’s bringing drinks/food to guests that had ordered at the bar.

Food excellent! Breakfast is continental in style (no bacon, sausage fry up) you choose the items you are wanting and they are presented on a shared tray to the table. Tea/coffee, juice free access.

The hotel itself is built on the side of an incline, but getting to the hotel from Koutouloufari center is not a constant climb. There is a small climb out of the center, until the turn on to the narrow road/lane leading to the hotel, which is reasonably level. (Returning in the evening this small road is dark in places)

Creta Blue is a lovely place to stay and deserves the good reviews it receives. If/when I visit Koutouloufari again, I’ll be booking this beautiful hotel.

Tips: Understand staying most places in Koutouloufari will involve a hill. Book a private transfer or regular taxi to be able to access the hotel. Being a small hotel, they don’t have 24-hour Reception, so if you arrive late and something is amiss Geroge will put it right in the morning. (a member of night security will have taken you to your room)

A little piece of heaven

Just home from the loveliest of stays at this charming and tranquil accomodation. I can only describe it as "A little piece of heaven". Firstly, and the only slight negative maybe for some, is that the hotel is set on a hillside, as is the village it is in. So if mobility is an issue then id look into it a bit more, but please dont write it off as you can contact management directly and request a room on the poolside level. Now onto the pros. The location of the hotel allows for the most amazing views down and across the whole of Hersonnisos and beyond, and this is even more amazing on an evening when the whole place is lit up. The pool area consists of luxury sunbeds and a range of wicker pods, which all have a luxury feel and look. There is an infinity pool which also lends itself to the spectacular views. The pool area has a very chilled vibe around it. The rooms are lovely and spacious with a modern feel and are equipped to a high standard with big thick mattresses and luxury lighting, a massive walk in shower and the addition of a bath in some rooms. It all felt very luxury. Now, the staff. Well, the staff here are the icing on the cake. They are genuinely the most lovely people and are a credit to Creta Blue. Always smiling, interacting with customers, giving cuddles and generally just look like they love their job which speaks volumes for the management, and in return makes the customer want to return to a place where it feels like staff are treated like family. On that note, George the manager is a lovely guy and really does try hard to make sure everyone is happy. He is very approachable and always happy to help. Thank you. The breakfast included is delicious and has a selection to suit all tastes and mix it up from day to day. A bigger choice of fruit would be my only request, but didnt get bored of it even after 14 days. The hotel is around a 5 minute walk down to the start of the villages, where there are an abundance of tavernas and shops etc. There's so much choice, and it is just beautiful to explore and gander, particularly on an evening So a massive thank you to all at Creta Blue for a wonderful and memorable stay. See you all next year.

As beautiful as last year.

All the staff are wonderful and clearly love their jobs.

Excellent food presentation and freshly prepared.

Our room ‘Grand Panoramic’ was fabulous, excellent shade and the bathroom super and always felt cool.

Grounds with flowers 🌷 and plants are very well kept and beautiful.
