Blue Paradise, Margarítai Overview
Blue Paradise is located in Margarítai, Greece. Rated 9.0 out of 10 based on 1 guest reviews.
Blue Paradise is a family-friendly stay in Margarítai, Greece, set along Eparchiaki Odos Aggelianon-Elefthernas 10, which makes it straightforward for road trips through central Crete. The property suits travelers who want a quieter base with space to unwind, and the soundproof rooms help keep evenings calm even when you’re returning after day trips. Guests can cool off in the swimming pool, then linger on the terrace as the day winds down. For downtime that feels a little more special, there’s also a hot tub/Jacuzzi, plus BBQ facilities for relaxed outdoor meals.
The surrounding area is rural and geared toward exploring, with Eleftherna’s museum about 2 km away and Melidoni Cave roughly 5 km from the hotel. If you’re planning a broader outing, Rethymno’s Old Town sits about 35 km away for a change of pace with more dining and strolling.
Review-wise, the hotel holds a 9/10 guest rating from a small number of stays, and the feedback points toward a comfortable, family-oriented atmosphere. One review highlights the overall ease of the stay, and the combination of air conditioning, family rooms, and free wired internet is repeatedly relevant for guests traveling with children or for longer inland itineraries.
Best for families and road-trip friendly travelers who prefer a peaceful base with free parking, room options for groups, and the flexibility to cook and relax on-site between excursions.
