Second time staying at this fabulous hotel. It's in the perfect location for us, quiet but within easy walking distance of amenities.
Spotlessly clean, comfortable, well equipped rooms and all the amenities (gym, spa, WiFi, multiple pools) you could wish for.
All of the staff working here are amazing whether that's at reception, in the restaurants and bars, or, the teams who clean and take care of the grounds.
We were half board and cannot fault the breakfast or dinner buffets. There was always a great selection of food, freshly made and, piping hot.
If you wanted to purchase food or drinks during the day these were available in a variety of venues throughout the hotel.
I'd highly recommend a stay at the Apollo Blue

What an amazing hotel!
Service was the best.
Rooms - super clean and well maintained.
Food - amazing ,versatile, fresh , at some point it looks and tatsed like we are in a high-level restaurant and not in a hotel buffet!
Im vegan , and the staff ensured every breakfest and dinner to walk me throughout the buffet, showing me what's vegan and what's not. Plus, they coocked specially for me a vegan substitute. ( and even vegan magnum for desert)
The pool and beach area are very accessible and well maintained.
I have 2 cons i think can be prooved to upgrade the stay eve more:
1. The all-inclusive part is not so successful. As it is not a classic "all-inclusive" hotel. there is not much verity of the food and drinks, and they and not self serviced. Personally, i would choose HB or FB next time
2. The main pool has a similar depth, all around 1.2-1.3m, so it is not that comfortable for kids under 1.2 cm in height. But not a deal breaker.
The overall stay of 5 nights was unforgettable, if will be back in Rhodes will defiantly go back to Apollo.
Thank you for making our vacation so great.

We enjoyed 2 weeks at Apollo Blue and we had a relaxing time.
Although it has old furniture and could use a refresh, the room was very comfortable, large enough for 2 adults and 2 kids. Lots of storing space and with everything you need. Daily room cleaning was done. We stayed at ground floor, very close to pool and restaurants and it was great! In 5 steps we were in the pool.
The pool is extremely large, more than it’s needed, I’d say. This means it’s never busy and you have enough space to swim. Jacuzzi was highly appreciated. Sunbeds are also enough - we never had to “reserve” one early morning!
Beach is close - you need to go through a nice field of grass. Fine sand, slow and long walk into the sea, no stones. Waters were very clean and clear and we could see crabs and fish.
Breakfast was diverse and delicious, coffee was strong and tasty. Lunch however was a big disappointment! Not enough variety for specially for kids (no grilled meat, chicken or fish were not served daily). Snacks lacked completely, especially fresh fruits. We would have expected more fruits available at all times (considering all inclusive and 5 stars!)
Beach and pool bars were great - with all inclusive you have access to a large variety of cocktails ( with or without alcohol).
Dinner was nice - enough variety, but again with little choices in terms of grilled meat or fish. Although you can drink as much sparkling wine as you want as part of AI, you have to pay for it at dinner (strange!)
If food is not acceptable for you, there are many taverns and restaurants within 10 mins walk.
Live music almost every night (piano, sax, jazz, opera even).
Absolutely no activities for kids - there is a games room, but that’s a joke, considering the little choice of games and the fact that you had to pay for them. No slides, no kids park, no animators … nothing! However there is an entertainment center 5 mins walk where kids can play bowling or minigolf (and many others we didn’t try).
All in one I would recommend this hotel - very nice service and staff.

Hospitality at an extremely high level! We arrived at 01:00 at night - the receptionist offered us food even though the restaurant was closed, for which we are very grateful! The hotel is comfortable, on the beach front, well maintained, with very kind and smiling staff. It offers a large parking lot as well as car rentals.
The pools are well maintained and some of the rooms also have private pools.

My family and me had the pleasure of visiting this great hotel during the summer of 2023.
Despite our initial hiccup – a booking mishap on our end, reserving a garden view room instead of the seaside view that typically includes complimentary airport transportation – the hotel staff showed remarkable responsiveness and understanding. To our surprise, they graciously provided free transfer from airport anyway, demonstrating an amazing dedication to ensuring their guests' satisfaction. This thoughtful gesture significantly increased our overall comfort from the very start. Upon arrival, we were greeted with an unexpected bonus: our rooms were upgraded to ones featuring private garden pool, adding an extra layer of luxury to our stay.
While the accommodations were slightly below the anticipated standard for a 5-star establishment, they still offered a cozy retreat. The minor discrepancy in quality was easily overshadowed by the positive aspects of our upgraded rooms.
The all-inclusive package ensured a vast array of food options for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Even our picky son found plenty of choices for each meal, which was a pleasant surprise. The à la carte dinner and complimentary drinks from the pool bar added a touch of luxury, and the option to use the pizza stand at the sister hotel next door was a convenient and tasty bonus.
The hotel's environment offers a well-balanced blend of relaxation and convenience. With a main pool and a separate one for children, as well as its own part of the beach, we could easily choose where to unwind without the need for extensive travel.
We thoroughly enjoyed the variety of entertainment options, including concerts and different musical performances. These added another layer of enjoyment to the warm evenings, complementing the already great atmosphere created by the hotel's surroundings.
Special mention must be made of the outstanding and friendly staff. Daily small talk and the extra attention given to the kids further enriched our stay. The overall experience at this 5-star all-inclusive hotel was exceptional, largely thanks to the staff's commitment to guest satisfaction and the numerous positive surprises throughout our stay.
We are greatly looking forward to spending time there during the summer 2024 again.
