At the travel agent's office, we were advised the Blue Marine Resort & Spa 5 * hotel is located in Amoudara - and the choice turned out to be good. By our arrival, the room was already ready and cleaned, a room on the 4th floor with a large balcony and sea views. The beach is good, the entrance to the sea is convenient (even for a child), the pace. +27 degrees. There is an interesting thing: an elevator to the beach)) The food is varied, the main restaurant cooks delicious lamb. There is an animation team (from Italy), the children are delighted with these entertainments. There is also a kids club, disco + infrastructure - two swimming pools and a playground. My son was the coolest)) In a word, if you are going on vacation with your family, you can safely come here.

The hotel was offered by the tour operator as a 5* hotel. Realistically no more than 4 *. Children's animation for the age of 10-11 years is no, for adults, too, not very much. Discos are paid, bars are free only until 24.00, eat after 22.00 if there is nowhere to stay on the tour. We checked into the hotel after 22.

We checked into the hotel after 22.00, at the reception desk we were sent to a restaurant for dinner, where they warned that this was only once and due to a late arrival. But nevertheless, the staff is very friendly, both at the reception, and in the bars and in the general restaurant /buffet/. The hotel was populated by 85% Europeans /Swedes, British, Finns, Poles, etc. /, but their behavior in the bars and around the pool was ugly, to put it mildly. Thanks to the chef in the general restaurant, the food is very tasty and we had enough variety, we didn’t even try everything. A big minus for the hotel is that we lived in a room on the 4th floor, and there were ants in the room and bathroom.

This year, we preferred holidays in Greece on the island of Crete to holidays in Turkey. And not only were they not disappointed, but they also saw a tangible difference in a positive direction. The road to the hotel took less than an hour, arrived at about 10-00 am local time. At the reception, we were met by a Russian-speaking employee and settled into the room within an hour, although the standard check-in time is 14-00.

At the reception, we were met by a Russian-speaking employee and settled into the room within an hour, although the standard check-in time is 14-00. True, the room turned out to be overlooking a steep mountain of red stone. It didn't bother me much, but it was dark. The hotel guide indicated the possibility of checking into a room with a sea view, but for an additional fee of 300 euros.
The room is spacious, comfortable, renovated, with air conditioning, hairdryer, TV and refrigerator (Wi-Fi was also available).
and a DVD player that we didn't use). Cleaning, change of bed linen and towels was done daily, but the refrigerator was not replenished with water. There was a safe in the room for an additional fee of 3 euros per day (however, when paying, the receipt was not issued, the safe was opened by the receptionist upon check-in). BEWARE OF MOSQUITOES, dozens of them fly around the room in the evening and do not let you sleep all night.
The peculiarity of this hotel is the minimum of its own territory, on which are located: the hotel building itself (stepped), two swimming pools, a pool bar, an amphitheater. The rest of the infrastructure is in the main building: the ground floor is a spa, the 1st floor is the main restaurant, the 3rd floor is the main bar, etc. The hotel building is seven-story, there are numerous elevators, including an elevator from the beach to the parking lot and from the parking lot to the reception. The hotel is quiet, the music by the main pool is not loud, all entertainment ends at 11-00 pm, but the rooms have good audibility (the noisy Germans were especially annoying).
I was pleasantly surprised by the delicious and varied food in the main restaurant (buffet): the food is adapted to European and Russian cuisines, there are no peppered or unleavened dishes (as in Turkey). Delicious local drinks (wine, beer). Attentive, friendly staff.
The beach does not belong to the hotel and is located across the road with little traffic, which does not affect the possibility of crossing it. A small beach with small pebbles, a pontoon, sun loungers and umbrellas (paid, costing 1.5 and 2 euros). The entrance to the sea is gentle, but in some places with boulders. Swim slippers are not required, although they are sold at a local shop for 12 euros.
Communication with Russia via the Internet or mobile communications, there is no payphone in the vicinity of the hotel, although cards for them are sold in the hotel store.
Didn't like the animation: a team of four animators acted every day (except for the Greek evening) either as fakirs, or dancers, or comedians, and dismantled poorly rehearsed numbers. Programs with the participation of spectators are practiced.
We repeatedly visited the nearby town of Agios Nikolaos. It has a sandy beach, shopping malls, cafes, Orthodox churches. You can get to the city by taxi provided by the hotel (13 euros one way) or once an hour by local bus (1.6 euros one way).
The tour operator offers a variety of tours: historical and mythological places (40-60 euros per person), horseback riding (70 euros per person), entertainment tours (Greek evening - 72 euros per person), pilgrimages, boat trips (from 50 euros per person). ), jeep safari (145 euros per person), shopping (fur coats from 2000 euros, even from a rabbit), car rental (with a car for 500 euros), etc.
We visited the pilgrimage tour "Journey from Crete to Crete" (135 euros per person) with a stop at the cave of Zeus and the largest plane tree in Crete, were very satisfied. By the way, the ascent and descent to the cave of Zeus can be done on a donkey (10 euros per person up or down, 15 - up and down).
Knowledge of foreign languages is welcome: we met Russian-speaking Greeks.
We recommend the hotel for a family relaxing holiday (but not through the Tez-tour).

We are resting at the hotel at the moment, as the owners have proven themselves to be five stars - a mystery, torn towels, Wi-Fi is barely available, everything in the hotel is paid, even the safe, the food is not very good, the beach is not very good, not even a beach, but a strip of mud by the sea , but the sea is cool, clean, transparent, warm.

It seems to me that this hotel did not justify itself, most likely a hotel for a very moderate holiday for old people and families with a leisurely Greek accent.

Went with my wife, returned a couple of days ago. In general, I liked the hotel, clean, the staff is very friendly, the food is varied and tasty. To be honest, I see no reason to take all-inclusive in Greece, since my wife and I were almost not present at the hotel for 3 days - we rented a car. Next time we will take a cheaper hotel (much) and a car for the entire holiday period for rent (for 3 days we paid 95 euros with all insurances), eating in restaurants in cities is not expensive (on average it turned out 20 euros per couple).

When flying there, expect to leave a reserve of 5-6 kilograms of weight in your luggage, if you like, you will want to buy olive oil, souvenirs, etc. Ask if I forgot to describe something.

I went to this hotel with my husband for our honeymoon. This was our first experience of a holiday abroad and we were very pleased. Firstly, frightened by the reviews about Tagil, we immediately calmed down, since the hotel is focused on European tourists and we didn’t have to blush for ours. Secondly, the level of the hotel is very high: the condition of the rooms and service is excellent, the food is very varied: a large selection of meat, fish, vegetables, sweets, in any form.

And how beautiful it is! Crete is truly a divine island! In general, we were satisfied with our honeymoon trip. I just ask you not to compare holidays in Greece with holidays in Egypt and Turkey. These are completely different types of recreation, incomparable!

We went to rest with the whole family (wife and son 2 years old) for 11 days in Greece. It was the first trip to this country, I must say right away that we really liked Greece and the hotel where we stayed.
I will write the pros and cons of the hotel.
First about the pros:
1. First: number. Clean, spacious with a large even huge balcony. Air conditioning, TV, CD / DVD player, mini fridge, safe (paid) everything was there. Also, what pleased me was the free internet via Wi-Fi. Spacious bathroom, and it was not a shower like in many hotels, but a bath. The room is excellent.
2. Second: service. All the hotel staff spoke English, they spoke Russian, only a couple of people from the staff, and all the cleaners. The room was cleaned every day, linen changed every day. In the dining room, the waiters did everything quickly and efficiently. Receptionists were quick to respond to all questions.
3. Third: animation. The animators were funny guys from Italy. Every day the people were amused by various contests and entertainment. In the evenings, evening performances were arranged every two days (it was funny to tears). They also constantly gathered people for sports entertainment: table tennis, darts, water polo and aqua aerobics. In short, it was fun. I also forgot to write there was a disco once every two days, but since we were with a child we could not go there. According to the reviews of our compatriots, everything was on the level. For children there was a children's disco 6 times a week. My son cannot be torn off. Animation is excellent.
4. Fourth: conditions for children. As I said, almost every evening there was a children's disco. There were a lot of kids and they all had a lot of fun. There was also a rather large playground, a kids club from 4 to 14 years old and two children's pools.
5. Fifth: nutrition. I won’t write much, I’ll say that I liked everything. The food was delicious, varied, especially evening desserts. Everything in the restaurant is clean and tidy. Long story short, I give it a five.
Now for the cons:
1. First: the beach. It is pebbly and small across the road, for convenience there is an elevator. The entrance to the sea is inconvenient. there were big stones. I went swimming from pantone, it was safer that way. On the beach, sun loungers, mattresses: for a fee 5 euros.
2. Second: a small area. You can say no to her. The territory is completely occupied by the hotel itself, so you won’t be able to walk around too much.
3. Third: the location of the hotel. It was remote from other hotels and settlements. There was nowhere to go in the evening, but those who came with or without children could take the bus to the city of Agios Nikolaos, only 6-7 km. By the way, the city is very cozy, beautiful, clean, I advise you to go there. We rented a car, it costs only 25-30 euros for a day and traveled half of Crete in a day.
From myself I will say this: we really liked the hotel, the rest too. If we get a chance we will definitely come back. Yes, in general, Greece cannot be compared with Turkey, Tunisia, and even more so with Egypt, but this is my personal opinion. And the prices in connection with the crisis there do not bite at all, as it was 2-3 years ago.

I am writing from the hotel. Perhaps the information will be useful. 1. The hotel does not have its own territory. This building is in the rock, in front of the building there is a swimming pool + sun loungers + a small bar. Then the parking lot, national busy road and the beach. You can leave the hotel and go left and right only along the road, which is quite busy.

I am writing from the hotel. Perhaps the information will be useful. 1. The hotel does not have its own territory. This building is in the rock, in front of the building there is a swimming pool + sun loungers + a small bar. Then the parking lot, national busy road and the beach. You can leave the hotel and go left and right only along the road, which is quite busy. You can climb up 100 meters to the nearest villa and that's it. Given the fact that the hotel is All Inclusive, there is nowhere to put the calories, especially after dinner. It was very stressful. Very sorry that they took 12 days. Taking into account trips around Crete, there was still just not enough space. 2. The beach is small, but not bad. Firstly, a small bay - there were no storms. Vacationers from Chersonesos came and complained about the waves, storms, and so on. We swam every day, there were not many people on the beach. All foreigners hung around the pool. We walked 10 minutes from us in Amoudara to the sandy beach, very good. 3. Food - no complaints. Just a lot and delicious. 4. The rooms are not bad, but the floor tiles are not comfortable for those with children. Housekeeping is good, everything is clean. Yes, they get mosquitoes. Our room was on the 6th floor, anyone below is even worse. Ask at the reception for a fumigator. 5. Ask the reception for a bus schedule. Stop opposite the hotel. Our guide (Alexander Zadorozhny, Teztur) immediately announced to us that the buses do not run on schedule, you can wait about an hour. Take a taxi or a car. Lied shamelessly. We went by bus to Agios and Erapetra - they go on schedule.
There will be questions, I will be happy to answer.

We returned a week ago. Since we chose this hotel based solely on reviews, I decided to write my own, perhaps it will be useful to someone. The hotel even exceeded expectations. k. paid only 2700 euros (2 adults and 2 children). The place is quiet. The road does not interfere. Cleaned up well. The staff is very friendly and courteous.

Special attention-animations. Although they didn’t speak Russian, they tried to entertain as much as possible, the main thing is to reciprocate, and not sit on the sidelines. Children liked in children. club, although no one understood anyone. In the evening, children. disco, after-fun show. Anim. The group is not large (5 people) gave all the best to 100%. According to the ALL-decent alcohol system. drinks (tequila, gin, whiskey, etc. ) I was pleasantly surprised by the food in the restaurant. Breakfasts and lunches were not very diverse, but for dinner there was plenty to choose from (approx. 5 types of meat, fish, various side dishes) There was more than enough, even the children liked the food. We went on an excursion (Lassithi Plateau and Zeus Cave) - I liked it, although it was quite expensive, almost 200 euros. I advise you to rent a car, it is much cheaper and more convenient. bought a guide (10 euros) and went to the Palace of Knossos (ruins that can be bypassed in the heat in 30 minutes. , and read the rest in the book), Aquarium (children liked it, especially sharks) Water park (great, I recommend) to. the road to the city by taxi costs 9 euros. , by bus-1.60. The beach is tolerable, on the right it is like sand (children dug in it with pleasure) and boulders in the sea, on the left there are pebbles and a convenient entry into the sea, but there were no sunbeds (5 euros 2 sunbeds and an umbrella), there is a pontoon. I advise you to buy oil and Metaxa at the airport. In general, the hotel, and the whole holiday very much.
