Room and view wasn’t what the pictures showed and described, the bathroom didn’t have a shower just a nozzle to hose yourself down. The staff was very nice and helpful, they also decorated the room for our honeymoon which was wonderful. The room was just disappointing.

Wonderful!

Staying at Blue Waves Hotel made our holiday! Everything about it was so good. Thanks to all the staff including Areti and Elana at reception, who were so welcoming, friendly and helpful. They gave us great recommendations and nothing was too much trouble. Lovely comfortable and spotlessly clean room, very relaxing pool area, where Mahood gave us great breakfasts. Location is great, close to the beach, bus stop, bakery and lovely restaurants. Highly recommend this gorgeous hotel. Thanks again, Nuala & Anne

We were very happy with our clean accommodation. The reception staff at Blue Wave made a positive impact and went the extra mile which made our stay even better. They assisted with our day trips which took the stress out of planning. Also the friendly bar attendant really set the tone for a relaxing vibe around the pool. Thank you Blue waves for a beautiful, relaxing and beautiful stay!

Our experience (girls' trip) was amazing. Tatiana was super helpful with everything, especially arrange transportation to various places and on point text communication. She is a gem. The outdoor space is breathtaking. Disliked the frosted glass bathroom door that lit up the room when someone gets up in the middle of the night, but other than that, our stay was perfect.
