Hi Bella,

Stayed at Delfino Blu 3 years ago and can confirm the comments about luxury etc however in our experience the place wasn't worth the money we paid (£3000 for 4 people). The pool area is small and not really suitable for lively teenagers. There was a touch of sunbed grabbing early in the day with the culprits not actually using the space until late afternoons (I raised this with some other regular guests who claimed that kind of behaviour was the norm). It is however right on the beach which is where we spent most of our time and we still go back and use their beach bar every year though. The owners and staff are very friendly people and we still had a great time but the price can be a killer (this year we're paying just over £1500 for two weeks plus flights for 4 somewhere else in the resort).

This synopsis was echo'd by many others!

Hi

We stayed at the Sugar and Almond apartments for our first trip to San Stef last year. These apartments were offered via the Delfino Blu as the hotel was full and we were offered the apartments with use of the hotel and breakfast - this may be offered to you also if you are thinking of booking for the summer as the hotel is only small and gets booked up very early. The Delfino owener, Costas, takes the apartments for the summer to add to his availability.

I cant comment on the rooms at the Deflino but the pool, breakfast and staff are fantastic.  As already commented by others the only drawback was the sunbed grabbing with half the beds having towels put on before breakfast and not used until after lunch.
The public areas and pool are spotless and the staff very efficientt and friendly. Hotel is right on the beach.
The hotel does try and push half board packages - i dont recommend this as there are so many great places to eat in the resort.

I wouldnt hesitate in recommending Delfino Blu or the apartments for a little luxury but there are alternatives a lot less expensive.

tonyco1:
Are those Apartments the ones next door - to the right of the hotel if looking out towards the beach?

Hi

No they are at the opposite end of the beach to the Delfino - they are newly built last year just off the beach just at the start of the steep hill off the main road through San Stef.
Slight uphill walk but nothing major - great views and near the restaurants etc.
