Overview

Grand Blue presents itself as a five-star resort where carefully tended gardens, clear sea views, and a beach-front position combine in a deliberately calming coastal environment. The property was designed amphitheatrically so that many public spaces and accommodation types command views over the Aegean Sea. The hotel’s stated principles emphasise heartfelt hospitality, the fusion of tradition with innovation, and sustainability as a guiding practice; these values are reflected in the selection of local produce in dining venues, the family-oriented service culture, and the variety of leisure options on offer.

Location

Set on a hillside that slopes down to the sea, the resort enjoys immediate proximity to a sandy beach with a seabed that combines sand and rock and provides a direct coastal experience. Guests can take in broad sea vistas from elevated terraces and many room balconies, while island excursions and nearby points of interest are readily accessible for those who want to explore beyond the hotel grounds. The position on the water makes the resort suited both to those seeking seaside relaxation and to visitors planning boat trips or coastal sightseeing.

Facilities

The complex provides multiple freshwater pools, including zones tailored to families and adult guests, each supplied with sun loungers, parasols and nearby shower and WC facilities. Poolside bars and garden-side eating areas are integrated into the layout so different moods can be catered for across the day. A mini-market supplies essentials and souvenir items and accepts credit cards, while an on-site gym allows guests to continue regular exercise. Children are provided with a secure outdoor playground and an indoor kids’ corner where organised creative activities and a mini disco take place close to the Seabreeze pool.

Room

Accommodation is varied to suit families, couples and small groups, with a focus on private outdoor space and views. The Grand Blue Suite with direct sea view is arranged for up to three guests and features a separate sleeping area plus a furnished balcony with sea views. Direct Sea View Superior and Deluxe categories offer rooms for two with private balconies or verandas facing the sea. Junior Suites provide a separate bedroom and a lounge/sleeping area for up to four guests and open onto furnished balconies that look over the resort’s gardens. Standard Superior twin or double rooms can accommodate two or three guests, with some rooms including a sofa bed to provide the three-person capacity.

Sports & Entertainment

Guests can expect a mix of active and social options, from organised sporting activities to staged evening performances. The resort runs tennis and aquatics-based activities such as aquarobics and water polo, together with seasonal competitions including archery. Light daytime activities and games are scheduled throughout the day, and professional external performers provide nightly entertainment. A weekly activity schedule outlines all sporting events and social programmes available during a stay.

Dining & Bars

Food options cover a broad culinary remit, from international buffets to Mediterranean specialities and an à la carte pool-side restaurant. Restaurant Panorama offers an elevated dining space with an extensive buffet selection and rotating national theme evenings overseen by the Chef. Restaurant Mediterra concentrates on Mediterranean and local Greek and Koan dishes, working with local and organic ingredients where possible. Restaurant Azure provides a more casual garden-side a la carte choice close to the Azure pool. A selection of bars serves drinks across different parts of the resort, ranging from a panoramic bar with island views to a lively pool-side bar beside the family pool and a calmer bar beside the Azure pool.
