Blue Jasmine Hotel

Very nice location, friendly staff, very good breakfast. Arriving no sign for the reception. The ac was not working as there were no batteries in the remote control. Misconcepted rooms with tiny bathroom and no shelves or storage possibility in the bath, no shower in the pool area, no privacy on the balconies, cheap furnishings falling apart.

Stayed on recommendation & we weren’t disappointed. Great location, wonderful staff & our accommodation was first class. We stayed in Skala Dawn on the ground floor overlooking the pool. It was spotless, comfortable & comes with a huge balcony. The pool is excellent with plenty of sun loungers & a great view over the ocean. The hotel is a good 2.5km from the centre of Skala but it’s an easy walk, passing various tavernas & beaches. Recommend Nautilus Beach , it’s worth the steep steps down! Taxi into Skala or back to to the hotel is €7 each way.

We had an absolutely fantastic week at the Blue Jasmine in Skala. The views from the apartments are absolutely stunning, and the whole pool area is beautifully kept with wonderfully comfortable sunbeds and a pool bar open all day. The apartments themselves are exactly as they are pictured online, we had the two bedroom Myrtos suite, which was definitely worth the couple of extra hundred euros for the space, it was really luxurious having so much space to relax and such amazing facilities including the air con, which we needed during the intense heat! We had a beautiful suite with two bedrooms, dining area, kitchen and lounge area and a huge balcony to extend it across the top of the restaurant underneath with perfect views across the sea and the pool and Gardens. The grounds and apartments are kept immaculately and the cleaning is stealth like! I’ve never stayed anywhere like it, we joked that the cleaner waited in the bushes for us to go to breakfast as it was always already clean on our return! Standards were very high and we were made to feel really comfortable. They also provide you with towels for the beach and pool as well as the apartment. The staff at these apartments were absolutely superb, from Sabrina who will check you in and answer all your queries and support you with any questions that you have, including helping you book transfers, car hire, trips. She was absolutely brilliant. The bar staff and the restaurant team were also fantastic, and we were wowed to have breakfast included, which we hadn’t realised when booked. The breakfast buffet was absolutely fantastic for such a small block of apartments, and to have an à la carte menu to accompany it as well as teas, coffees, juices, et cetera. It was the cherry on the cake. My husband enjoyed scrambled eggs every morning whilst my son and I enjoyed the pancakes. The hotel sits on the top of the hill on the outskirts of Skala, so it’s a lovely walk down to the beach into the bars and restaurants and a taxi ride back. We hired a car, which we would definitely recommend to visit the beaches nearby and a fantastic beach bars for lunch and dinner. The apartments suit families and couples, although given there were only 12, and most one bedrooms, there were more couples than families, and certainly very few children, my sons age (11). I would best recommend these apartments to someone looking for a quiet break with absolutely majestic views. Somewhere to relax in the sunshine, enjoy a good book, a dip in the beautiful pool, and a fabulous lunch at the restaurant, for that is perfect. Oh and Wi-Fi was perfect and worked everywhere really well!
