Lovely big rooms, we stayed in a 2 bedroom apartment. The food was good most days with a good variety. Entertainment was not brilliant, but
only one person doing it and he did his best. It's a 10 minute walk down to the shops and there aren't many. There are 3 restaurants on the square all very good

I love this place so much!!!
My family and I have been coming here for 20+ years now and every time it is always a pleasure to stay at BlueBay.
The staff are ALWAYS polite, pleasant and accommodating. The maids are lovely and so friendly. They are forever willing to go the extra mile, I love coming back to the room and it being all fresh and clean.
The views are phenomenal. Some of the best sunsets I have seen in my life. Every room in this hotel has a sea view. The grounds are kept and maintained to a high standard and the ground staff are very friendly.
The Bar serves amazing cocktails and the staff are welcoming, Especially Angel and Zuso, who have been there since I was a baby.
This place really has such a sentimental value to me and my family. Please don’t ever change. So many memories have been made here and we always look forward to booking for the next year as soon as we get back.
Thank you for everything each and every year!

We stayed for a week and all the staff were absolutely amazing. Every staff member greeted us with smiles. The location was beautiful,our room was cleaned and refreshed every day. Thank you for an amazing stay. Stand out members were Marco and Maria from reception, but the the staff in the restaurant,accommodation and the little supermarket downstairs were all equally amazing.

To call this hotel a 4 star, is generous.
I’m truly disappointed in my/my family’s experience. 2 days before we arrived, we requested to be picked up at the airport by the hotel shuttle services. Upon arrival we had no transportation, they had never confirmed nor replied to our request.
We got to the hotel, paid and checked in, the rooms were far from modern, terribly outdated, it smelled moldy (the air vents were covered in it) and I’m asthmatic.
The bathroom was not properly cleaned (found the last tenants hair on the shower walls) and Limescale covered the faucets.
The AC barely worked, the living room sofa was filthy and there were tears and rips in almost all the fabrics. To a point that we had to request a different room all together. The doors creaked like an old school horror movie. We were limited to one TV channel because everything else was in either Spanish, German or Arabic… Every morning military helicopters did their rounds, shaking up the place with its noise pollution. It seems very much like they are understaffed.
Honestly I wish I had more better things to say, the staff were pleasant and patient, love that, and again the views were amazing, but unfortunately I found it difficult to relax and enjoy the stay. There is so much potential, it’s 2024 time to get with the program guys, seriously.

Where do I begin?
The room
We had an one bedroom apartment. The furniture as many before me have stated before me is very outdated. The room itself is dilapidated. Rotten door frames, worn out kitchen cupboards. (Bathroom) The faucet had limestone and tiles in shower had mildew inbetween them.
The pool
There was algea all around the pool. The tiles were either loose or lying at the bottom. If you want a spot at the pool try and get there as it opens. Because other guests claim spots with their towels and disappear. There is a sign that states clearly that this is not allowed but it is not re-enforced.
There is a area for kids.
Surrounding area
There is a flight school next door. And everyday you can hear the sounds of the planes flying back and forth. There is a go-kart complex 12 minutes away but the wind carries the sound. It was loud, felt as though it was next door. It was not relaxing at all.
Highlights
There is a little shopping area a couple minutes away. It's nice there. Restaurants, stores, supermarkets and a playground for the kids.
There is transportation by bus but you have to walk down the hill first (10-15 min)
There is also a mini market on the grounds of the hotel. They have the basics and I found it affordable. The staff, very friendly and helpful.
View was nice and alot of breeze.
I really do hope that management upgrades this place sooner than later. It has so much potential. It's no 4 star hotel, not at all.
Unfortunately, I will not be returning.
