After booking this hotel based on the reviews I read here on tripadvisor I was pleasantly surprised by how much I loved staying at the Magic Blue. The hotel is on the smaller side, only about 40 or so rooms - which added to a relaxing, quiet atmosphere but not at all boring or stuffy! I came with my best... more

We booked a 'triple' room & were quoted a triple rate though a website, but upon arrival Magic Blue wanted an extra $142/night (!!!) for the 'extra person'. We were not prepared to pay this exhorbetent cost, when we had book a triple room at a lower rate. Magic Blue were most unhelpful and unaccommodating. We wasted over an hour... more

What a wonderful, relaxing hotel. We really enjoyed the fresh clean rooms. Great balcony overlooking the court yard pool. This was a great place to hang out, relax and read a book. I'll be back. more

The bartender was always very friendly and even would bring the drinks to our room. Always very, very clean and we would come home from being... more

Very impressed with this boutique Hotel to say the least. Rooms were great with plenty of room. Very clean at all times. Amenities were fine. The hotel atmosphere was very well kept and clean at all times also. Really impressive oasis (beautiful landscaping and pool area) in the middle of the hustle and bustle only a short block from very... more

I am glad to find people with similar experiences with me. i actually stayed in magic blue hotel recently, and i found that the hotel had really poor service. Basically after the shift changed, there were only one receptionist + one security guy. They both spoke little English and had no clue at all about the situations in the hotel.... more

I've stayed in this hotel two years in a row in late December. The first time it was a pretty good experience. It's conveniently located close to all the bars, clubs and restaurants, not too far from the beach and the service is quite decent. It's very clean and rather comfortable. I returned with my girlfriend this December for New... more

We were charged a rate of USD 400/night for New Years Eve, only to be manhandled by the night security gaurd who refused to let us into our room at 5am after... more
