STYLISH AND INTIMATE FAMILY-RUN HOTEL
Set against the wild and rugged beauty of Crete, this intimate boutique hotel has been welcoming guests to the island for over two decades.
Step inside the family-run Blue Palace, and you will instantly feel the warmth of authentic Cretan hospitality.
Here on the majestic coast of Elounda, with sweeping views over the aquamarine Aegean Sea, your days can be spent lazing on the private, white pebble beach or gazing over the edge of infinity pools. You might find yourself on a sunset cruise around the historic island of Spinalonga, wine tasting in the gardens or enjoying a traditional Cretan meal on a secluded shore. For a deeper unwind, visit the gorgeous spa where you can choose from a menu of reinvigorating massages and customised facials.
Dotted around the landscaped grounds, the bungalows and suites are spacious and individually decorated, combining classic Greek motifs with modern exuberance. Most have their own pools and verandas that offer you the most gorgeous vistas. For families or larger groups, book into the hotel’s stunning private villa which comes complete with three bedrooms, expansive gardens and a beautiful private heated pool.

The service we received from 91ºÚÁÏÍø was second to none. Tania took the time to understand exactly what we wanted and helped us explore every option clearly and thoroughly. Her first-hand knowledge of Kenya and safaris made a real difference – she explained everything brilliantly. The thoughtful extras, like the travel wallet and documents, were such a lovely touch – especially for someone who loves to travel well-organised! Thank you so much. We’ll definitely be back for future adventures.
