Blue Bay Halkidiki

Very good nice clean excellent breakfast

We spent 12 nights here and loved every minute. Great room with a good sized balcony. Spotlessly clean throughout. Lovely bathroom and powerful shower. We used the smaller pool with a fantastic view over the sea, even spotting dolphins one day. Breakfast was really good, one minor criticism is the hot food could be hotter. Some days the eggs were cold but loads to choose from every day. The team here are extremely friendly and helpful. Always have a warm welcome with a big smile. The housekeepers work very hard in the heat and it shows in the standards throughout the hotel. It's a ten minute walk into Afytos from the hotel but only €5 for a taxi. We went to the beach via the steps which weren't as bad as expected. Overall a fantastic holiday

The hotel is very peaceful and nicely arranged. Although you can walk into Afitos it was a bit hot for us so we used taxis which were 5 Euros each way. The pools are lovely. The rooms and in particular bathrooms are lovely. The staff are very friendly and helpful. However, we stayed half board and found the evening menu a bit samey and the food not very hot. The hotel could do with some Air Con in the waiting lounge area as it got very warm waiting for our departure coach and late check out for the room would have been pricey. Beach is very nice but steps down are pretty steep.

We chose this hotel because of good reviews and its close walk to Afytos village. We were in a new building , sea facing suite Bed was comfortable . Great toiletries . Towels for pool easily available Breakfast a bit same daily but loads to choose from everyday and such an amazing friendly lot of staff The Bar area to sit for drinks or coffee later on has stunning sea views Can reach the beach but we thought it was too hot to give it a go we were told sea was good to swim in. Cons are Need to collect towels from reception lovely gym but maybe better AC The a la carte menu could vary a bit ? Overall the staff were fantastic Makes all the difference The cleaning ladies were tireless The gardner never stopped Well run hotel

Very nice room with lovely view and balcony. A/C, safe and fridge included. Large, very comfortable bed. Great bathroom with bath/shower, double basins and toiletries. Very clean and well tended hotel and grounds. Fabulous breakfasts every day. Attentive staff and poolside service. So peaceful around the pool for the occasional dip to cool off. Walk into town (15 minutes) then taxi back 5 Euros. Would highly recommend for a quiet, relaxing break.

Travelled with my sister to, what I would describe as, one of the best hotels I have ever stayed. All the hotel staff, front of house, bar and restaurant staff, cleaning services staff went over and above to ensure everyone had a wonderful stay. All so very helpful. The hotel itself has stunning sea views, a wonderful pool, and very comfortable seating areas for dining and lounging. The location of the hotel has direct access to a lovely beach, down lots of steps, but not too strenuous if you take it steady. Lovely little beach below. Also Athitos is only about 600 metres away, a really beautiful village with lots of tavernas, lovely little shops, bars and bakeries. Our holiday was very relaxing and the Greek people so welcoming. I'm thinking in the hight of season it will be very busy but in May it was perfect for us.

Staff makes this place so wonderful. It is a very decent hotel, not fancy but very good. Staff seem to be genuinely interested and happy to see you.

From the moment we arrived till leaving, we had a fantastic time at the Blue Bay. Our room was spotlessly clean, with a very comfortable big bed, small fridge and amazing bathroom! We had a superior double with a side sea view. The ladies who cleaned our room everyday were very friendly and efficient. Breakfast was between 7 and 11 each morning with a really good selection of hot and cold buffet style. I had fresh fruit, eggs, toast, croissants and coffee most mornings. There was plenty to choose from. The hotel has 2 pools, a smaller one and a much larger one with lots of comfortable sun loungers around them. Pool towels are free, beach towels are 1 euro each. We did walk down to the nearby beach to swim. There must have been close to 100 steps, but they were gradual and quite manageable for most people with a reasonable fitness level. We ate some snacks at the bar and these were delicious and well presented. The staff were always pleasant and very polite. We ate out most evenings at nearby Afytos, a 10-15 minute walk. 5 euros by taxi. Our favourite was the taverna of staki. The staff were great and the food some of the best we ate. Average price for a couple who ordered starters, main and drinks totalled around €45. Some lovely shops too. All in all, I would recommend the Blue Bay hotel 100%. It was relaxing, well equipped, well run and had fantastic staff. Huge plus was the weather. A really sunny and warm week for early October! Thank you Blue Bay hotel!

Stunning hotel with immense views of the blue sea. Staff are lovely, special mention to ‘crazy’ Maria who is just such a lovely young lady. The hotel is clean and well maintained and just an easy 15 minute walk into Afitos which is just a stunning village. Only negatives is the nonsense of reserving sun beds by at the latest 8am. Definitely not enough sun beds or loungers to accommodate the number of guests. However would definitely come back and we highly recommend it. We met some lovely guests here (Mr and Mrs Leeds) ❤️ xxxx
