If you're looking for a relaxing beach holiday for a reasonable price the Blau is for you. You'll get an amazing beach, a clean hotel with spotless grounds, nice staff and quiet evenings having a cocktail listening to music at the bar. Enjoy! Don't hesitate to contact me if you have any other questions. :) more

However, things are changing and I agree with some of the comments made by other posters. The public areas are great, the hotel looks good... more

My boyfriend and I just got back from the Blau yesterday and we are definitely having withdrawl from the sand and sun.
