Me and my husband booked a weeks holiday at the Ocean Blue flying out on the 16th September. Everything was confirmed. At 5pm the day before we travelled we received a phone call saying we had been bumped out of the Ocean Blue to a sister hotel called the Nautica Blue. We asked for an explanation but the booking company... more

We booked this hotel for our honemoon trip. Surely it wasn't what we expected, the private pool isn't private and the jacuzzi fits nearly one person and above it all we were given a twin room. So, the first day wasn't very good for us howerever the staff was very helpfull and after our complains about the type of room... more

Two weeks is to long in this Hotel, the smell of the sewers are disgusting and quiet often would burn your throat with the raw smell.Not a lot to do for the children,nothing outside the hotel and it was very expensive to travel by taxi.Stayed in Rhodes several times before but Ixia is a long way down the beach.No way... more

Ok- if you've already booked don't worry, it won't be a holiday from hell but it definitely isn't a 5star. My husband and I booked a two week, all inclusive break here deciding we'd try and save some money this year, we usually go further afield. I mention this because compared to other 5 star resorts we've stayed at this... more

Ok, so it is not quite a 4 star hotel but it has some very nice features, or at least we had some; For example, the shower cabin had a ventilator and a radio incorporated so you could listhen to radio stations while you were showering... We had e wonderful view of the sea as well from our balcony...The maids... more

just come back from a great holiday at the ocean blue. we were concerned when we read some reviews but was pleasantly surprised on arrival, early hours greeted by a lovely gentleman who insisted on taking my suitcase off me and carrying it to the room. We requested our 2 rooms together which we received. We did miss breakfast so... more

We've just returned from our family holiday at the Ocean Blue. After booking the holiday back in March we read the reviews on tripadvisor - some of the reviews were pretty awful so you can imagine our anxiety - especially travelling with 2 young kids. Anyway, 30 mins after landing in Rhodes we arrived via taxi (11 euros) at the... more

This hotel sits next to a working sewage farm, the smell is completely overwhelming. I cannot describe how bad it is, it made me literally throw up. It also sits directly on the flightpath for Rhodes airport, you can see the passengers in the airplanes as they fly overhead, the noise is terrible. The hotel appears to cater for Eastern... more

Staff is mostly from Romania and seems very sad and not the least service minded. They never smile and make you feel very unwelcome. The rather outnumbered Greek staffs are all great and very friendly. The Hotel is OK but could make minor adjustment that would make it worth its 5 stars rating. The food is brilliant and the hotel... more

I have just returned from this hotel after a 2 week holiday. The hotel is sold as a 5 star....it is no more than 2.5 star at best!! The write ups I saw about the hotel by tour operators were simply not true. Like, no money exchange at reception, no beach bar, the beach is dirty and all pebbles not... more
