All I can say is… amazing 🤩
We got married at Utopia Blu in September 2024 and just can’t stay away. We have returned for our anniversary for 2 years now and are equally as impressed everytime. The hotel is beautiful, food is lovely and the staff are amazing. Particular shout out to Manos the guest relations manager, and the most incredible entertainment team- Ryan, Daniel and Petr particularly give us some of the best belly laughs we’ve had in a long time. They work so hard and are amazing! If you want an amazing holiday, book today 🥰
Good in so many ways but.............
Writing a review is all about your own personal experience and reading other reviews I can say a majority of them are very true and we certainly experienced what others were saying about the hotel - very clean, lots of entertainment, extremely lovely waiters and bar staff who work very hard, varied food options, modern rooms (albeit very small), fantastic themed restaurants.
Now the downside - only about 10% of the rooms are south facing therefore if you have the adult only area and you are in block 1 and 3 then you either get the sun in the morning or the afternoon. Don't waste your money on swim up rooms. The large pool areas with lovely sunbeds are south facing and plenty of them.
We all talk about the food and drink at an 'all inclusive' but the biggest negatives at Utopia are the drinks, the cocktails are so weak and watered down. You are given drinks in paper cups (sometimes lucky with a plastic one) around the pool. The bar in the main reception area is very small but the waitresses are fantastic as well as the bar staff.
Food started off to be very cold but seemed to improve as the week went on. Lots of variation in the evenings but the lunch snack bar was very repetitive. I think someone else also mentioned that the main restaurant does not differ from breakfast in it's set up. It would make a big difference if they were to put table clothes on the tables in the evening so it gives a more evening feel about it. It does come across as being a bit like a staff canteen (that's my opinion)

Shout Out To All The Staff
We spent 2 weeks at Utopia Blu in September. We had an adult swim up room which was lovely. We had the sun on us in the morning & then on the afternoon the shade, which we didn’t mind as it was hot in the sun. The cleaner we had was brilliant, she always communicated with us & left our room looking fabulous.
Absolutely loved both the à la carte restaurants. Would definitely recommend.
The food in the main restaurant was also great. It must be difficult to cater for different tastes, preferences but we did feel that the staff do their very best to cater for all.
The staff in all the restaurants & all the bars work very hard. The one thing that stood out for us was how all the staff at the hotel are so helpful & friendly.
The hotel & grounds are beautiful & extremely clean.
The only niggle we had was the music. We don’t mind music being played, however, when you have heard the same loop of songs being played for a number of days in a row. It does get a bit irritating. We did however, use our headphones which solved that small niggle.
Other than that, it was an amazing holiday, we felt truly relaxed.
We would definitely return.
Thank You.

Room upgrade
Arrived last Saturday 17th, checked in lovely hotel, but was really disappointed to hear today that most of the party have been given a upgraded room, but as mother and father of the groom we were not given this advantage. Love the hotel stuff amazing but would have loved this opportunity.
Amazing holiday at the end of September
We've spent 10 amazing days at Utopia Blu. The hotel is very clean, modern and beautiful. The staff are very helpful, and any complaints you have are swiftly handled by the guest relations manager.
We stayed in a suite with a private pool. Because we visited the hotel at the end of September, there was little sunshine on our pool and terrace in the afternoons. When we asked the guest relations manager for a different room, we were offered another room with a south-facing private pool within two days.
The food was good, with different themes every evening. The lunch buffet often offered the same dishes, but there was so much choice that you were by no means required to eat the same thing day after day. We feel that people who complain about the lack of variety in the food are perhaps afraid to try things they are not used to, as we never had to eat the same thing twice in 10 days.
The animation team was not pushy, but very enthusiastic and friendly. The themed nights at the Meraki Bar were a huge success, and we saw some amazing shows there.
For people visiting at the end of September, it might be good to know that the private pool is noticeably colder than the main pool. It was no problem for us, but if you prefer warmer pool water, head to the main pool.
One more topic is the after-sales service. Unfortunately, I forgot my Galaxy Buds Pro in the hotel. I only noticed this when we were a few days back at home. I sent an email to the email address listed on the website and also asked our travel agency to send an email requesting that the hotel check the safe and send the earbuds to us if they were found.
We were pleasantly surprised to recieve an answer to our request, letting us know that they would search for them, and 2 days later they were found. They guided us through the process of sending them to us through a trusted partner. It is amazing that they have taken the time to search for them.
This ofcourse means that even when you are no longer staying in the hotel, they still take the time to help if something is wrong.
We should ask TripAdvisor for a 6 Star review, as we have no negatives about this hotel 😊.
