Best Hotels in Maleme

(I think these prices were made up to be honest) We had a good stay overall, but this was ruined slightly on the last day when we needed the courtesy room

We arrived at reception for the room to be told we’d have to wait for another 3 family’s to use it first. Not great with young children when you’ve been promised you wouldn’t have to wait

We asked about 3 times whether we needed to book one and was told every time that we should turn up 5 minutes before as there is lots of different rooms

We should’ve had the option when we arrived to book or be told you could, this could be clearer as we missed out completely because of this

We opted for courtesy room as we had a late flight and didn’t fancy paying the €70 for 3 extra hours or €100 for 6 hours until 6pm

Al a carte restaurants advertised, but when we asked to book we were told they were finished after tomorrow, and fully booked

Every night when we ate dinner in the all inclusive restaurant we could see while sitting outside that there was staff cleaning the sunbeds and tables by the pool, it always looked good and clean in the moring when we went for breakfast

Some days it was good! for example when it seemed like there was a theme like mexican (taco, burrito and so on) and greek night (gyros, both self made and ready-made) but some days we did not find that much that tempted

Me and my bestfriend have just spent two weeks at Solimar Aquamarine. We booked a double room with private pool and we loved it! Every summer we book a girls trip and travel for two weeks together

All the sunbeds by the main pool was taken our three last days so we are wondering if there is enough beds in july and august(?) Don’t know how full the hotel was when we stayed there, but we know that it’s 104 rooms here so it might work out well

We really liked that and it made the meals feel more «exlusive» instead of in hotels where you have to go get your drinks on your own at the buffè. The food might be one of the few things we are a bit disapponted with

The all inclusive buffè is clean and the staff there is nice and friendly. For lunch and dinner they serve water, wine, soda and the drinks you want (those who are included in the all inclusive) to the guests table

It's a great hotel with great and helpful staff, always smiling and with good energy, our family been more then happy for our stay here, I'm sure we will come back again 😀 😊 definitely a place to visit, you have beach 30 meters from the hotel too

Also the sun sets on the other side of the beach with is also beautiful. Overall we had an amazing week at Maleme Mare. We would highly recommend it if you’re after a week of relaxing in this friendly, family feel hotel

Very clean hotel with the friendliest staff, they couldn’t do enough for you, special mention to Aris who is so friendly with all guests & had such good banter with him, we loved seeing him around! Also Sasha behind the bar was so friendly & always smiling

We would like to give a massive shout out to Aris who made an effort with us each day, what a lovely guy and we feel as though we’ve left with a friend. 3 nights a week there’s entertainment on at the bar

Sasha is always working hard and there’s a big selection of cocktails in the evening. By the end of the night everyone is up dancing and laughing. The food is perfectly presented and huge selection

Two pools, fitness center what's not to like 😎🌞 great buffet with loads of new dishes each day. They also went in a extra bit and celebrated me and my wife's birtday with cake and drinks 🍸 😄

My daughter and I have just spent a week at the Asterion. We thought that the facilities and the food were excellent, although it is the staff who make this a fantastic place to stay

We thoroughly enjoyed the hotel and the entire complex – small, but full of charm! A special mention goes to the friendly and attentive team, and a big thank you to Goran, who welcomed us warmly every evening and provided excellent service

The atmosphere during dinner was always relaxed and often very entertaining – thank you for that! The food was varied and of very good quality

We both enjoyed our walks along the sea-front, took a taxi into Chania Old Town and went for a trip on a mini-train which had an accessible carriage! It means so much to be able to still enjoy a holiday like this, so thank you to everyone at the Asterion, especially to the kind gentleman who mended the back of my scooter with his Allen key!

There are several great restaurants nearby, a promenade suitable for jogging. The city of Chania and the beautiful beaches of western Crete are very accessible and close. The entire hotel team is professional and great

Although the bathroom was not fully accessible, it was equipped with a walk-in shower and the hotel had kindly made a seat available. My only wish would be for a fully equipped disabled toilet near the restaurants

Friendly staff and excellent food and cocktails. If you want to enjoy a quiet holiday, go there. Rooms new and always clean everywhere

All the five stars are dedicated to the staff! Reception, restaurant staff and cleaning were all so great. They were all very kind and interactive with my little 1-year old daughter Luna, so we appreciated this a lot

I had no expectations because already once in Greece the hotel was a disaster despite the higher price and good reviews. But the hotel exceeded expectations. Beautiful quiet hotel, not far from the beach

The hotel facilities are very good, pleasant restaurant, nice pool area. The fitness room though - a tragedy

And the way he conducted this with his own people was very simply embarrassing to look at. I would not want to work for him myself but maybe Greece is a little outdated when it comes to people management, I don't know

I'm sure the management would want to have 'fitness' checked out amongst the facilities but to call those facilities a gym would be a strong overstatement. They have six 5-kg weights and two machines out of order

Excellent place - good value for money. We had a great balcony overclooking the swimming pool, the apartament was comfortable and cosy. The swimming pool was perfect - clean, warm and deep (2.7m) We love it!

There were 3 bins in the room, which made it a lot easier to keep the room tidy. The bins were taken out everyday and beds were also made everyday. The kitchenette has most utensils and cooking equipment

Spaces in the car park appear to have been marked at different times, as some of the spaces block other cars in, which I'd witnessed, and on 1 of the nights I watched 2 cars drop people off and then leave because there weren't any spaces left

But at the beach front there are plenty of spaces, and that is a very short walk away from the back entrance of the hotel. It was very close to a shingle beach and a stretch of hotels and shops, and the tourist train

Fridge also had a freezer shelf. There was a dining table and chairs, a dressing table, a sofa bed to sleep 1 person, a double bed and on the balcony there was a small table and chairs. Balcony was of a decent size

I have been going there for the summer the last 3 years and I can say that they have made a really spendid job with making the rooms more modern and the hotel staff is very friendly in any situation!

Keep in mind that the hotel is next to the main road, so naturally the (cheaper) rooms facing north (towards the road or "mountain view") are more noisy and sitting on the balcony is less pleasing

Very dated but good Aircon and nice size room

The terrace restaurant is open all day, they serve snacks but also fresh traditional Greek dishes and meat from the grill. Food is okay, on par with most tourist oriented restaurants in Maleme

The hotel and the rooms are a bit dated, but well maintained and reasonably priced. The sea view/pool view room was quiet and had a very nice view from the balcony, especially in the evenings

The family and staff is very friendly and always helpful, they let us keep one of our rooms on checkout day free of charge so we could leave our luggage there and use the pool all day

I would recommend the Albatros as a base for exploring the island and the beaches, for hanging out at the pool in the afternoons/evenings and the occasional snack in the restaurant

The complex has several buildings with a few rooms each, so you don't feel crowded. The sea view rooms are right on the beach, those on the ground floor don't even need to use the door to get to

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had an absolutely amazing holiday here! From the moment we arrived until the very last day, everything was perfect

The food was also fantastic – with delicious Aegean dishes and a very wide selection of vegetarian options, there was always something fresh and tasty to enjoy

The reception, restaurant, bar, and housekeeping staff were always so kind, helpful, and smiling – they truly made us feel welcome

The extremely nice staff, Claudia and Eleni from the Beach bar, Maria from the reception and those from the kitchen, I apologize for not remembering the name of the lady (Stavra?) who was particularly attentive to my needs

The hotel is new, modern, and very practical, while at the same time surrounded by beautiful nature

The beach a little stones but the hotel provides free deckchairs as well as canoes. Beach monitored by hotel volunteers as well as entertainment. Thank you all we had a very, very good week

Thank you for a wonderful vacation. Delicious food, comfortable and clean rooms, staff who are always ready to help. What else do you need for a good vacation and mood.

Stunning food and service! The whole experience from start to finish is amazing. The restaurant team is always so friendly, kind and professional

Very good cuisine with Greek specialties. The cooks are always smiling and are courteous, the same goes for the cleaning ladies who work hard in the heat, everything is clean, the rooms, the gardens and the swimming pool

Everything about the hotel was exceptional. It was clean, stylish, roomy with excellent service for that booking price rate. Definitely we're recommending and aim next season trip to the Castro Beach Hotel

Hotel is located at the sea side. Personal are very friendly and kind. We had a good vacation there. Seaside is amazing with amazing nature around. Thank you

Great place for a family vacation. Lots of pools. Good food. All animation is in English.

We came as a family of 4 with a 4 year old and 3 month old. The hotel is decent for a family break. Pools and slides very good for the kids and for an all inclusive the food wasn’t too bad although repetitive

Went on business but turned out to be a memorable fuse of business and vacation for a good one week

As other reviews state, snack bar serving pizza/gyros/burgers which is decent. Drinks mainly all self serve, typical for an all inclusive, local brands but ok

(I think these prices were made up to be honest) We had a good stay overall, but this was ruined slightly on the last day when we needed the courtesy room

After this, I have to say a special thanks to…Maria ( I think) the guest relations manager was lovely and tried to make sure we were all ok and even gave our littleones a small gift to keep them busy at the airport

Kastalia village is the best hotel ever. Clean , friendly , food amazing , local products and the staff is so nice ! The swimming pool is amazing. Nearby the hotel there are nice beaches and you can walk till there

The only thing I could complain about is the AC that didn’t really do much difference to the temp in the room, but it kept the table and chairs nice and cool😂 if it would be located closer to the sleeping area it would be much more convenient

There is some restaurants and shops nearby and a tiny shop just next to it- the lovely gentleman there has everything you need. The rooms are rather basic but spotless, the area is cleaned and well maintained

Pool is great and not too crowded, there were always some loungers left. The splash park wasn’t too big but big enough to keep little ones entertained for a while. The snack bar has a decent menu and drinks

We just came back home from our stay at Kastalia Village. It’s on the edge of town and it’s perfect- quiet, far from all the crowds. It has large parking so ideal place for people with rented cars

There is a very basic playground for younger kids. The hotel is walkable distance from the beach although we didn’t really go there apart for a walk

We spent the last night of our weeks holiday at this resort as a treat. The room was very good - very clean. Some excellent perks such as welcome drinks / cocktails and a bottle of wine

Fantastic Stay – Clean, Comfortable, and Relaxing I stayed at this hotel for 4 days and had a fantastic experience. The service was excellent—staff were friendly, helpful, and always attentive

Stayed 6 nights in a pool view room which we were upgraded to. Had a beautiful view from the 2nd floor. The bedroom and bathroom were both very spacious and clean. The buffet breakfast was excellent

The half board includes breakfast and dinner in which the food was excellent. We choose this option so that we could venture out during the day and explore other places for lunch

The breakfast was good but I was told I could not take my coffee out from the breakfast area - whatever we had had to be consumed there. Bearing in mind the pool can literally be 5 steps away from the breakfast area

Would we go back again - maybe - the layout and rooms and gifts were very good

Beautiful hotel, very friendly and helpful staff. Food is delicious, especially desserts :) eating evening time at beach restaurant is sooo romantic :) 100% I recommend this hotel

Beautiful hotel but poorly designed bathroom in our apartment. Pool was ice-cold (we went last week of the season though). Other than that, beautiful stay!

Overall a nice hotel. Breakfast is not included, which would be nice. Rooms are a little worn, but with nice facilities. Nice location next to the beach and a couple of stores and restaurants.

Unbelievable beautiful place!! Short walk to a beautiful beach, pool for small children, and 2 other pools. Bar at the pool, good food, great breakfast with what ever you want, yogurt, milk bread cornflakes

The rooms were also nice, with small kitchens equipped with everything you need for making food. The location was perfectly placed next to a shopping and dining street with all conceivable options available close by

We didn't try other hotels, but we imagine this being one of the best in the area

Anastasia are the best I have met/seen so far! They are a really good team and will make your stay unforgettable!!!

Really a nice place. Kind and helpful staff. Wonderful food and drinks. Great possibilities to train and be active. Highly recommend.

This is without a doubt the best all inclusive resort I have been to in a long time. The rooms, facilities, food, drinks and most of all the helpfulness of the staff are all above 5 star quality

This is without a doubt the best all inclusive resort I have been to in a long while. The rooms, facilities, food, beverages, and most of all staff helpfulness is way beyond 5-star quality

The Wife and I spent a few nights nights here during our "babymoon" in early September. The place was very well kept, the 1st floor room was excellent walking right out to the pool

The hotel is very nice, especially its staff and service is incredible! Also if you are not satisfied with the hotel/rooms itself, the hotel staff will make you laugh and smile every single day! The barkeepers Mr

Excellent hotel with delicious breakfast and very friendly staff (especially the younger receptionist). Tables to have breakfast lunch dinner basically on the beach. Comfortable and very clean rooms

Nice, friendly and easy. Good location close to everything. Nice view from the balcony. Not crowded when we visited in May. Don't forget ear plugs if you are sensitive to noise.

Extremely helpful and friendly staff. Excellent amenities and perfect location in front of the sea. I’d 100% repeat it!

Good location for different trips

Amazing food, clean rooms, cozy pool and friendly staff..everything you want for your vacation you will find it here. Definitely have a cocktail during sunset and relax staring at the sea..We will be coming back!!

Very nice place! Exelent food! and cleen rooms everyday! You have everything in walking distance!the beach! Supermarket! Only 4 minutes away when your walking😁

Wonderful stay, very good quality price, the hotel manager has been always smiling and helpful

Very clean rooms, nice pool. Good and polite people.

The hotel as is ok. We had an apartment below grund which was ok big, but not very cosy. Cleaning was meh, but the people were very nice. Perfect pool for the whole family is one extra star.

Small family hotel by the beach. Would get 5 stars if they updated the rooms a little. Nice staff, clean areas and rooms.

My daughter and I have just spent a week at the Asterion. We thought that the facilities and the food were excellent, although it is the staff who make this a fantastic place to stay

Although the bathroom was not fully accessible, it was equipped with a walk-in shower and the hotel had kindly made a seat available. My only wish would be for a fully equipped disabled toilet near the restaurants

As someone with mobility problems, I valued the accessibility of the hotel and its grounds, even down to a path onto the beach, so that I was able to sit out on the sun loungers there

I was able to use my mobility scooter throughout the hotel and store it overnight in our suite, where there was then plenty of room to use a walker

We both enjoyed our walks along the sea-front, took a taxi into Chania Old Town and went for a trip on a mini-train which had an accessible carriage! It means so much to be able to still enjoy a holiday like this, so thank you to everyone at the Asterion, especially to the kind gentleman who mended the back of my scooter with his Allen key!

The reception staff, the restaurant staff and service staff could not have been more friendly and helpful during our stay

Very nice hotel! The bartender and the staff was very good! The best drinks I have ever teased!

Excellent hotel! The rooms spacious with a lovely view of the pool, we could sit outside and relax or swim. Also the windows were soundproof so no matter the noise or music outside, the rooms were peaceful

The bartrender Angelo was an Angel from above. The bar was a pleasure to hang out, he is so friendly and make the best drinks I have ever drank. You have to visit and say Hello from Kimberlee to Angelo

We spent half of our honeymoon here we were welcomed with beautiful gifts and friendliness, the hotel was beautiful, comfortable and clean

Everything was amazing. Very satisfied .Tomas the security and Angelo very profesional we miss them .See u next year

Excellent food in the restaurant, a lot of dietary dishes for children, a variety of the diet were changed every day. Two nice pools with sea views. All the amenities in a walking distance. Will definitely go here again!

Very nice place to be. Really enjoyed it with my family. Thanks to the waiters you did an excellent job!!!!

Good hotel and very helpful staff, the cleaningladies are very nice and happy! If you are there more than 7 days you will get tired of the breakfastbuffé let alone 7 days the juice ia barely juice and tastes very synthetic

We had a nice spacey room with sea view. We stayed there for one night, which was quite expensive, but for a family with kids this is definitely a place to visit. Very good bathroom and shower and good quality beds.

Hotel apt was clean and comfortable and staff is alwas nice and ready to help. Be aware the beach is not for children , it is really deep right after you step in the water

Perfect place for a family holiday, the hotel on the first line, 20 meters from the beautiful sea, the magnificent sandy beach

If you have neighbors, you will hear them well. Service: Good service, everyone is friendly and helpful. However the reception desk is almost never manned (in October, at least)

Very nice location, with direct access to the beach. We booked an apartment with sea view, with a large terrace, very clean and comfortable

The hotel has its own parking and has plenty of restaurants nearby, beachfront as well as in the main street. The host is very friendly, he offered a lot of valuable suggestions for spending time around the island

It is a bit away from the town of Chania but with plenty of cafes, restaurants and several shops around

Everything was great from the beginning to end of our stay. The morning breakfast was normal with fresh orange juice at your disposal. The extremely nice part is the placement of this complex

We arrived at in the middle of the night and he waited for us without any issues

I loved this resort! I recommend the all exclusive pack if you want to have a good stay! The kids loved the water park everything was fantastic! Especially the food!!!!! I really recommend this resort it has THE BEST view etc

It was my first time staying in an all-inclusive hotel. The hotel was modern and well decorated. The service was excellent and the food was delicious

Really nice hotel with plenty of good facilities and a great layout. The pool is enormous and well lit so it really stands out at night and the private beach is a lovely touch. The food does let it down though

The restaurant was open at almost any time and there were basically no restrictions. The kids loved the water slide. Although it was not big, there were not many people and they could enjoy it

Unfortunately, the temperature was relatively low in early May and there was a strong wind. Although the outdoor swimming pool was beautiful, it was not very swimmable

The buffet can become quite tiresome and repetitive and the food quality is certainly not the best

Great Location. Rooms neat & tidy. Pool Area excellent. Food good. Easy walking distance to bars & restaurants and cafe bars. Will return....

The resort was lovely, the rooms were clean and spacious. The buffet was excellent with a good range of food

Wonderful, in every way! Close to the beach, Clean sandy beach and sea. The pool area is also nice and clean. Fits for couples and families, for anyone actually. The room were big enough and the bed was very comfortable

Martin from the animation/entertainment team was great! We all really enjoyed the daily darts game! Theodora (training captain) in the buffet restaurant was amazing, my 10 month old daughter absolutely loved her

Even outside the resort the local businesses were so friendly and not pushy for sales, in fact they gave us free drinks and gifts for our children! Can not recommend this resort and the area enough!

She went out of her way every time to help us. All the staff were so friendly and lovely which made our stay extremely memorable

Our first disappointment was the receptionist who could not be bothered to give us 100% of his attention during check-in; he was on the phone for a third of it, spent another third asking people behind us in line why they were here to see if he could have some "quick win" fixes and ended the check-in by speed running all the instructions of our stay and the resort map

These rushed explanations led to the misunderstanding of where to eat and what was included in the half-baked where the serving staff was much more well-mannered and even offered the two wines we ordered without knowing we would be paying for it

The buffet was well furnished with various options of meats, fish, salads, sides and desserts. Although there are vegetarian options, they are clearly less varied and refined

hile spacious and with a kitchenette, there are many shortcomings and defects that make it seem like a cheap hotel room as opposed to the luxury resort it is trying to be

So far, the experience is 50/50 but the reason I am making my review so early in my stay is due to something that won't change in our time here, the sub-par room

Time will tell if we get bored of the salad bar within our week long stay. The sea view from the main restaurant is very nice and quite peaceful

The best part of the hotel was it's view. We took a sea view room and it was perfect. The rooms were clean and the hotel staff was courteous. The breakfast at the restaurant waves had good variety even for vegetarians

Hi everyone, we been to the Marika hotel in Platanias few days ago whit my wife and some friends, it's lovely hotel friendly staff and I highly recommends for all who have plans to go on Crete for holiday, from me and my wife 5 stars, nice clean rooms , pools are perfect for the adults and for the children, good service and friendly staff at the pizzeria and down to the restaurant near the beach, we...

The sea view with breakfast made it even more memorable. The Italian restaurant at the hotel is amazing too. I would recommend this hotel if you are looking for a good stay for a reasonable price

Nice rooms, super clean, modern, friendly staff, good food, good beach. We had to change hotel from our first, as the standard was so bad, more a getto. Big thanks hotel Marika for helping us

Area very safe and secure, happy to walk around even late at night. Lots of excellent restaurants and shops very nearby, within easy walking distance. Little 'train trips' very worth doing

The rooms were spacious and clean, beds very comfortable. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Location brilliant, very central on the main road and on the bus route, and near the Platanias bus stop

We had a large balcony with a table, and everything was so clean that when we wiped the table, there wasn’t even a trace of dust. The attention to detail in the cleaning was truly impressive

The owner was wonderful to meet—so kind, welcoming, and generous. He treated us to fresh fruit and shared many helpful tips about the area, making our stay feel extra personal and warm

Breakfast was another highlight: homemade, delicious, and prepared with so much care. This hotel completely won us over—the location, the atmosphere, the hospitality, everything was perfect

The food is amazing, the chef is great. The pool is a decent size, and the spa treatment is also really nice. The rooms are clean and of decent size. Really enjoyed my stay there and would go back for sure

We stayed here with my mom for one night, and we were absolutely delighted with this hotel. From the moment we arrived, we knew it was special

Breakfast was good and one had a good choice of dishes, warm and cold, sweet and fruity etc. The rooms are nice and quiet spacious. From the balconies you have a nice view of the sea

Drinks in the hotel bar are way overpriced paid 8€ for a cocktail that was served in a juice cup and was less than half full! In saying that accommodation is adequate, location is good as it's close to everything and bus service to Chania is brilliant at 2

Of the 10 nights we only had dinner twice in the hotel as the food was not of a good standard, this added extra costs to our holiday as we had to pay for dinner elsewhere

We were half board and would not book as half board again,breakfast is good with wide variety of options however dinner was a total disaster

Nice area, clean, wonderful Beach for small children too. Great breakfast in the restaurant. Wonderful view to the sea.

Nice hotel in Platanias, very close to the beach. The restaurant is next to the beach, you can also overlook the Playground for the kids. There is a great "greek night" with dinner and show once a week

Nice Hotel just on the beach. Just perfect because it is not too much nor too less. Recommended absolutely.

We stayed here a week with four Kids. Poolbar had good and quite good prizes. You could eat in the bar or in your room/balcony. Good location, quiet road on the side. Super market just other side of the road

Clean, comfortable and affordable room for a 3 star hotel, excellent menu, and pool bar,. it has 2 pools for children and adults

Well kept hotel and very clean. Beds were comfy, good pillows. 2 min walk to the main street with all the restaurant and shops. Then a further 4 min walk to the beach. The size of the apartment was a positive for us

Really good hotel. Nice place, clean and good hospitality. Have covered parking what was plus for us. Totally recommend

who have since become our good friends, and we have never looked anywhere else to stay in Agia Marina

Always incredible ❤️ we love the hotel and love Tonia, Mike, and Mamma Gina. always so amazing, and always looked after here. We've been coming here since meeting Stella and Theo many years ago

Great value for the good price. People who run the hotel were absolutly kind and cool :) -for them nothing is impossible. Food was great- fresh fish, traditional crete cuisine, good breakfasts

Absolutely fantastic. Great food, friendly service, nothing is too much effort, totally laid back atmosphere, clean and a lovely deep large pool with grass and beds. Excellent hotel!!!

Our room is a good size for two people and we have a nice sea view on the pool facing side. On this side there's no sun on the balcony until late afternoon. But it's a godsend as it's also nice when a breeze blows

Best assistance from the owners and room service. Localisation near the beach, tawerns and shops. Deep pool with the zone also for children, comfortable rooms with balcony, WI-Fi- ok

Very nice hotel. Good rooms, pool is varm, breakfast was super, dinner was cheap and very good. Also host is superfriendly. I was there 1 week and I do recommend.

Good breakfast, Amazing location close to the sea. Convenient pool facility, wifi, proximity to publish transport. Very high price to value. Owners are extremely friendly and will love sharing their culture with you.
