“Beautiful resort, but nowhere near a true 5-star experience”

We spent one week at Mitsis Selection Blue Domes and left feeling rather disappointed. The resort itself is beautiful, with spacious grounds and a fantastic pool area. The food in the à la carte restaurants was consistently delicious, and the live singers in the evenings created a lovely atmosphere. Unfortunately, these positive aspects do not outweigh the numerous shortcomings in service, organisation and maintenance. Room and housekeeping The first three nights of our stay were spent in a room with mould on the ceiling and water leaking through it. We reported the issue to reception immediately. Initially, we were told that no alternative rooms were available. Only after three nights were we finally moved to a mould-free room. What is particularly disappointing is the hotel’s response to our subsequent complaint. Despite the significant inconvenience, the hotel is refusing to provide appropriate financial compensation and instead offered alternative services. This is not how we would expect a five-star hotel to handle such a serious issue. The minibar was only replenished once during our entire week. Housekeeping staff sometimes entered the room without waiting for permission, even when we were inside. We were also regularly disturbed early in the morning by extremely loud furniture being dragged across the floors. Simple solutions such as protective gliders or wheels could easily prevent this. Restaurants and service The presentation and overall appearance of the buffet in the main restaurant did not meet our expectations of a five-star resort. We therefore only had dinner there once and chose the à la carte restaurants for the remainder of our stay. The food in these restaurants was excellent, but the service was frequently overwhelmed. We experienced long waits before anyone took our orders, several dishes were unavailable, and on one occasion a wine could not be served because there were not enough wine glasses. Staff even started moving tables and chairs noisily while we were still eating, giving the impression that they were more concerned with finishing their shifts than looking after their guests. The bar service was equally disappointing. On several occasions, nobody came to serve us. In one instance, a waiter told us that it was table service, but never actually came to our table to take our order. Another example of poor organisation was our pre-ordered lunch packages. We had selected three different options through the hotel app, but received three identical packages instead. There was no water, and the sandwiches consisted of dry slices of bread with a tiny piece of cheese in between. When we complained, staff simply insisted that everything had been checked again, without actually addressing the problem. Breakfast was also affected by recurring organisational issues. Cereal bowls were missing every morning, and on one occasion there was no fruit salad or orange juice. Even when travelling as a family of seven, it was apparently impossible to arrange tables together. A member of staff even interrupted service at our table to loudly reprimand a colleague in front of guests. Completely unprofessional. Snack bars and waiting times The additional food options are a nice idea. There is a pita kiosk by the beach and a Sweet Corner offering crêpes, burgers and other snacks. However, queues were sometimes so long that we had to wait up to 30 minutes. And this was at the very end of the season! It makes you wonder what the situation must be like during peak season. Clearly, capacity and staffing do not seem to be adequately planned. Evening entertainment The singers and live music were excellent and created a wonderful atmosphere. Unfortunately, all performances took place in the same outdoor location, which was so poorly lit that it was almost impossible to see the performers. A real shame, as better lighting would have made a significant difference. Our conclusion Mitsis Blue Domes has a beautiful setting, fantastic pools and very good food. What it lacks is consistently professional, attentive and guest-oriented service. Even the handling of our complaint after the stay has been disappointing. Our impression: five stars on paper, but in many areas far from a genuine five-star experience. We left disappointed and would not recommend the hotel in its current state.

“2nd visit in 2026”

This was my second visit this year as my parents rely on the familiarity of Blue Domes for their holidays. Something I will always love is looking down over the resort from the top as it is stunning. There are so many food places to choose from that you can’t possibly go hungry! Yes there are queues at times but I noticed that there were more staff this time so improvements had been made. The guys at the pool bar make the best cocktails and Aggelos in the lobby bar is a fantastic barman and friend to us. For a 5 star selection hotel I would like to see more branded drinks and more seating in the night bar. Every night was the same trying to hunt for a table to watch the entertainment. Though the service from Aldi and the others was great. My partner is coeliac so needs gluten free food and the staff and chefs in the main restaurant could not do enough to help. Elizabet was an absolute star and Anna the nutritionalist was very helpful too. The service by waiting staff in the main restaurant was outstanding especially Jhazel. It was a real shame the evening Managers Cocktail party had to be rescheduled due to bad weather and instead it was combined with the wine tasting in the day. It didn’t have the same feel to it and none of the senior management were present. On the whole staff are incredibly hardworking and do everything they can to help. There are some I found rude & unhelpful which makes you feel unwelcome but they are in the minority. My parents have mobility difficulties so having the buggies driving guests around is brilliant. These guys are so helpful and friendly and we always look forward to seeing them and again consider them friends of our family. Yasir goes above and beyond and is such a kind man. A special mention to Stamatia who always checks in, looks after all our needs and is another friend. She works so hard to try and keep everyone happy. We were very grateful to be allocated a lovely pool room which was perfect for my partner and I with the sun loungers outside. Some aspects of the rooms are a bit tired and could do with some updating. But the extras such as slippers, dressing gowns, toiletries etc are excellent. Despite the awful weather, it was another enjoyable holiday. Thank you to those members of staff who make us feel welcome and look after my parents.

“Enjoy Your Winter Break, Team”

October is an amazing time to visit this place. We received a complimentary upgrade to a swim up room which was awesome. 6 out of 7 days were really sunny for us with temperatures about 25 degrees Celsius, absolutely perfect. We chilled at our own pool every day but also visited the private beach to swim. Staff can’t do enough for you in every area, they are wonderful. Our room received stay over service nice and early each morning. We like to go to sleep relatively early and knowing music shut down about 10.15 nightly was great. We checked out about 4 days before they are now due to shut for winter break. To all of the team, enjoy your break as you absolutely deserve it after your long season. We also checked out the two sister properties next to the hotel, Blue Domes is the best of the three. Each day we would walk along the coastline, 2.5kms each way, to the church and back. We also played tennis which was free, on excellent courts. The mountain views behind are equally stunning. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our week with you, thank you.

“10 out of 10”

We visited at the close of the season, but this certainly did not reduce the amazing level of care and service provided. The à la cartes were very nice, personal favourite was the Italian. For lunch I could not get enough of the gyros at Pita Giros, phenomenal. All in all a wonderful resort, rooms are stunning, loads of space around the multiple pools, great little children’s club, 10/10 recommend. Particular thanks to Stam who couldn’t do more for us and the guests. Thank you Blue Domes
