Great holiday
This was a great place to stay, very clean the rooms are a nice size. The food is excellent, great choice. We had a great time very relaxing. I would say the down side would be there's no where to go at night. There's just a couple of shops and some of the entertainment in the evening is ok, more for the children. Overall, we had a great time. The beach is lovely.

Good, clean hotel
We have just returned from the Blue Bay Escape, St Spyridon, Corfu, (June 20th-28th, 2008) and I can only say what a great holiday we had. The Hotel is clean & spacious. The food is good and plentiful. The pool is quite big and overlooks the sea with great views across the Med of the Albanian coast. If I was to be picky the only negatives I could come up with is the mosquito’s at night (there are lots so you will get bitten) and the cats (there is a small group of our furry friends living on the resort, but seem to cause no problems) The staff are friendly enough with plenty of silly games through out the day (darts, water gym, water polo, volley ball, football) There are only a couple of local bars within walking distance, so the area is fairly quiet but the hotel has basic (and I mean basic) entertainment in the hotel nightly, but hey it was not too bad.

A good overall family holiday
We booked this 3 wks before we were due to go and looked at lots of mixed reviews on the net after we had booked. We are a family of four with two children of 9 and 5 and it suited us perfectly. We booked a family suite so the kids had couch beds in the living area and my husband and I had the bedroom. There was lots of room and the apartment was clean, tidy and modern.
The situation was perfect as there are two lovely sandy beaches within 3 mins walking and the pool was large enough for everyone to use too. Infact we spent most of the day by the pool because when the kids were hungry or thirsty they could go to the bar and order a drink, ice cream or snack which was great. The buffet style meals were great - not a la carte but a very good choice for everyone - lots of salads, hot food and chip/nugget style food for kids too. We went with First Choice and so there was a holiday club where the children could see by looking at the list what was going on and decide if they want...Read more

Great staff, great food, lovely situation
My husband and I have just returned from blue bay and had a fantastic time, the rooms were so large with lots of room to spread about. The staff were so lovely and friendly and the hotel was spotless. The entertainment team were great, not the most professional lot but so friendly and put everything in to what they did. Food was very good for an all inclusive and it certainly showed on my waistline when I got home. We hope to go back sometime and will take a flyswatter for the wasps which was the only bugbear but would not put us off going again.

Family holiday - superb choice
We stayed here for two weeks. Whilst I am 54, my sons are aged 21, 16 and 14. A super holiday, the hotel staff worked so hard and in a genuine manner, they could not do enough to ensure we had a glorious holiday my sons are active and physically very able boys, they loved the activities in the day. Weather so hot too each day. The rooms were big and well air-conditioned, very comfortable. Nice beach just across the road. Evening entertainments were fine for the boys but not the same for the adults. I have to say that was not important, as everything else about the place was excellent. Food was very good great choice and plenty of it. The restaurant was quiet and polite with good insistence on standards of dress i.e. long trousers for the men.. Call me old fashioned but I like that.2 years ago we went to Turkey all-inclusive with First Choice and I slighted it on our return awful place, restaurant that resembled a canteen and unpleasant staff .. THIS was nothing like that and I would re...Read more
