Majestic and elegant, the Blue Palace, A Luxury Collection Resort occupies a hillside overlooking the stunning Mirabello Bay. Situated just outside the fishing village of Plaka on Crete’s eastern coast, this fabulous resort seamlessly combines Grecian splendour with the very best of service, hospitality and comfort.
Living the high life
There are a number of different suites and bungalows available to choose from at this impressive resort. Bungalows boast marble bathrooms, mini bars and private balconies or terraces, and you can opt for one with its own heated pool. The spacious suites each feature separate living areas and infinity-edged pools. For complete luxury, the newly refurbished Island Luxury Suites include oval bathtubs or Jacuzzis, secluded patios with sunbeds, and direct beach access.
Culinary delights
The resort has five exceptional restaurants, each serving a range of irresistible dishes. Enjoy themed, buffet-style cuisine at the resort’s main restaurant, Olea, or experience classic Greek favourites as you dine al fresco at the Blue Door Taverna. Alternatively, sample delectable steaks at Flame, authentic Asian dishes at Asia Blue or excellent Italian fare beside the beach at Isola. In the evenings, relax in the stylish Votsalo Bar or admire the exquisite sea views as you sip cocktails in the Arsenali Lounge.
Relaxation and adventure
Pamper yourself at the resort’s beachfront spa, which features an indoor heated pool together with two Thalassotherapy pools, two Turkish hammams and a Jacuzzi. Indulge in one of the traditional treatments on offer, such as an authentic, olive oil massage. If you can tear yourself away from the beautiful infinity-edged pool and white pebbled beach, the resort provides endless fun activities for your enjoyment. Cruise the bay on a Caique fishing boat, or why not try Cretan wine tasting? Join a sunrise yoga class or water aerobics session or choose from a vast range of watersports.

We have been using Azure to arrange our holidays for over 12 years. Every year usually twice a year, sometimes more, we rely on the experienced team at Chester to provide expert information on our chosen destinations. Be it a return to our established favorites in Barbados and Dubai or a new and exiting destination chosen from Azures brochure it is always handled in a friendly and competent manner. The small details are not missed such as do we need late check out or early arrival, which can make such a difference after sometimes long hours travelling. For us using Azure takes the uncertainty out of booking holidays.
