The beach and pool areas were very accomodating in regards to food/drink ordering. Proper maintenance was obvious on the grounds as we ways saw staff out keeping things well manicured and taken care of. We were pleasantly surprised to be upgraded to a suite with a private pool for our last two nights which was quite beautiful. We would definitely recommend the Royal Blue to anyone considering a vacation in Crete. ##### Aleksandar S Stayed 10 nights in Sep 2022 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Mitsis Bali Paradise](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mylopotamos-Hotels-Bali-Paradise-Hotel.h6057315.Hotel-Information) > > [Rimondi Grand Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Rimondi-Grand-Resort-Spa.h4925255.Hotel-Information) > > [Elounda Palm Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Agios-Nikolaos-Hotels-Elounda-Palm-Hotel.h1457221.Hotel-Information) > > [Marni Village](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-Marni-Village.h1166948.Hotel-Information) > > [Royal & Imperial Belvedere Resort - All inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-Royal-Imperial-Belvedere-Hotels.h1191451.Hotel-Information) > > [Mitsis Selection Laguna](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-Mitsis-Laguna-Resort-Spa-All-Inclusive.h4260878.Hotel-Information) > > [Domes of Elounda, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Agios-Nikolaos-Hotels-Domes-Of-Elounda.h2497819.Hotel-Information) > > [Euphoria Resort - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Platanias-Hotels-Euphoria-Resort-All-Inclusive.h21337972.Hotel-Information) > > [Grecotel Marine Palace & Aqua Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mylopotamos-Hotels-Grecotel-Marine-Palace-Aqua-Park.h3444165.Hotel-Information) > > [Stella Palace Aqua Park Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-Stella-Palace-Resort-Spa.h9330057.Hotel-Information) > > [Atlantica Caldera Palace - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-Atlantica-Caldera-Palace-All-Inclusive.h35181792.Hotel-Information) > > [Creta Maris Resort - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-Creta-Maris-Resort-All-Inclusive.h541819.Hotel-Information) > > [Leptos Panorama Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chania-Hotels-Panorama.h691965.Hotel-Information) > > [Atlantica Ocean Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Platanias-Hotels-Creta-Princess-Aquapark-Spa.h1186786.Hotel-Information) > > [Senseana Sea Side Resort & Aquadventure - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-Club-Marmara-Golden-Star.h4886851.Hotel-Information) > > [Atlantica Kalliston Resort - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chania-Hotels-Atlantica-Kalliston-Resort-Adults-Only.h1627449.Hotel-Information) > > [Aquila Elounda Village Resort, Suites & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Agios-Nikolaos-Hotels-Tui-Blue-Elounda-Village-Resort-Spa-By-Aquila.h1119002.Hotel-Information) > > [Bali Mare Village](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mylopotamos-Hotels-Bali-Mare-Village.h9613588.Hotel-Information) > > [Mitsis Royal Mare](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-Mitsis-Royal-Mare.h1181666.Hotel-Information) > > [Lyttos Mare](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-Lyttos-Mare.h60611378.Hotel-Information) > > [Atali Grand Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mylopotamos-Hotels-Atali-Grand-All-Inclusive-Resort.h40068737.Hotel-Information) > > [NEMA Design Hotel & Spa - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-NEMA-Design-Hotel-Spa.h12376062.Hotel-Information) > > [Troulis Aparthotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mylopotamos-Hotels-Troulis-Aparthotel.h12475411.Hotel-Information) > > [Bali Beach Hotel & Village](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mylopotamos-Hotels-Bali-Beach-Hotel-Village.h7273315.Hotel-Information) > > [Minos Imperial Beach Resort Milatos Crete](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Agios-Nikolaos-Hotels-Radisson-Blu-Beach-Resort-Milatos.h660214.Hotel-Information) > > [Acro Wellness Suites - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Malevizi-Hotels-Acro-Wellness-Suites-Adults-Only.h42005805.Hotel-Information) > > [Filion Suites Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mylopotamos-Hotels-Filion-Suites-Resort-Spa.h4016849.Hotel-Information) > > [The Island - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-The-Island-Adults-Only.h1789428.Hotel-Information) > > [Lyttos Beach - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-Lyttos-Beach-All-Inclusive.h8077194.Hotel-Information) ---
