The owners of Defina Blu who bought the Belle Vue, have still done nothing to them. Left to fall down I guess.
Shame as the the Belle Vue were really nice apartments to stay in.

I thought they were going to expand them into one complex?

Although using pools at any place is free you are not supposed to eat food you bring with you or drinks. Any food or drinks must be bought there.

Never appealed to us, to walk to other apartments or hotels' pool, bit like going to your local baths with a towel under your arm imo

We much prefer the use of the pool where we are staying. That was the only thing about Belle Vue it didn't have one but did have the room to put one in. Still we used the beach every day when we stayed there.

It's totally different in San Stef - they welcome you to use any pool - just buy any drinks at their bar!!
It stems from when there were only a couple of pools in the resort, and it just spread.
We often use the Athina Hotel Pool, and have Lunch there!!

You are so right about it being so easy in san stef to use other pools! We used to stay in the Efi when we had the kids with us but now actually like it when we don't have a pool. It is usually quieter and we spend most of our sun time on the beach anyway!

Gotta' go with that  - we are at the Theodosia, no pool, don't need one as so many to choose from,
but we will be on the beach, much more fun for people watching!! Great entertainment!!

Just what is a 'boutique' hotel anyway??

Concerning the Belle Vue, we stayed there several times and they were always fully booked, and what is more you really needed to book a year ahead to be sure of getting your chosen weeks. Wonder what made them pull the plug on such a success story-bizarre!!

I hope i am right on this the gentleman that owned the Bellvue was very ill so the family sold them and the owner from Casa Delfino bought them. Apparantly he was supposed to turn them into Luxury rooms that would have been apart of the Delfino complex.Actually years ago they were first in the Thomas cook brochure.

We remember watching the building of Casa Delphino (Delphino Blue) over a period of a few years . It always looked as though it was going to pretty special. :)
