Per the thread

Full breakfast is included for Platinums. Whether the third person in the room affects that, I'm not sure but doubt it? The hotel is probably right (in that the rate does not include breakfast) but you get it as a Plat anyway.

Can anyone comment on the beach situation?
It seems like the hotel beach has small, white peddle stones. Are there any nice sand beaches nearby?
Thanks in advance!

Beach is a stone beach you best enter the water over a web. I found it nice enough. I didn't see any mentionable beach nearby

If you are looking past April 2018, it doesn't look like they have loaded any rates, so you might have to check back later.

Highly recommend Domes of Eloundra instead since it requires less points than the Blue Palace. They seem to treat elites (Golds and Plats) quite well as they upgrade these guests to their 2BR villas with a private pool if there's availability.

I am sure they do...but you might want to consider renting a car. Eastern Crete is pretty spectacular and driving is easy. There are some great sites to see and things to do.

Definitely rent a car! Otherwise it will get relative boring and you miss a lot. 1 hour drive is correct.
