Best Hotels in Malia

Our children took advantage of the interactive games that were organized almost every day. The food was good and the service impeccable

The service everywhere was courteous and friendly (cleaning, maintenance, reception staff and restaurant staff). We had an excellent service experience at the food and dining service through our stay

But what stood out most, were the staff! At breakfast, Maria and Sofia would always greet us with a warm smile and such genuine hospitality - they truly started our day off right! For lunch, we were served by Evalina and Aida - who were so incredibly kind, helpful, and generous to us and our little boys

The complex is large and feels like a picturesque village and is pleasant to walk around in between variety of buildings and apartments

We stayed there for five days (a couple and a kindergarten-aged girl) during July with full board service

Absolute paradise! The location, the food, the amenities, the views - everything is just wonderful

We spend a week there in early August. One of the best stays we ever had. We had to change rooms and they were really nice and professional about it. The staff is very good, the atmosphere amazing

It's a great place if you want to relax. Nothing to see around it but we just stayed at the beach or the pools, the hotel is interesting enough :)

Amazing resort, everything you need to relax and unwind, including a fantastic spa, all the staff are wonderful and friendly, I had 2 massages during my stay, both fantastic but a big thank you to Kostas, the best massage I’ve had, will definitely be back

The food was amazing, and the restaurants really impressed us with their stunning locations and excellent cuisine

A Perfect spa experience for the end of my Trip. I felt very much taken care of, especially by my spa therapist Maria Tha. She was kind and very meticulous with the treatment. I would recommend her for the Cretan massage

The staff is incredibly friendly – a huge thank you to Eleni and Thanos! You couldn’t ask for better service at the pool bar during peak season – we looked forward to seeing them every day (not just for the drinks!)

Incredible food, we tried every restaurant and particularly enjoyed the Cretan one. The staff were so lovely and friendly. One thing for future travellers to be aware of – it's a VERY family-friendly hotel

My top tip would be that the best sun loungers by the main pool are by far the orange beds, they have shade you can move around and aren't on the grass which can become muddy

I'd say it is a family hotel first and foremost, honestly. We were one of the only parties there without children. But, the children were all pretty well behaved and it certainly didn't spoil our stay

Only downside for us was that the quieter River pool, with signs asking children not to play or be loud and so was more adult-only, only had poolside beds dedicated for particular bungalows/rooms

This was a bit frustrating when the main pool was full of kids having fun, and the river pool was beautifully quiet and peaceful. We could still use that pool, but we couldn't relax by it

My partner and I came to Crete for 10 days in September, and stayed at Cretan Malia Park. We had a wonderful time – the room was beautiful and the whole resort was gorgeous

Excellent place to stay . Food is great , location right on the beach and staff brilliant

Another thing is that although there are enough sun beds for every guest, unfortunately many choose to block the best located ones for themselves by sprinting each morning before breakfast, covering the sun beds with towels and using them much later

Other than the beach, the large pool is also a great place to chill (I think it was a good idea to remove the diving boards one can still see at some pictures). The resort is very calm and peaceful

I understand there are bugs and stuff outside which can get to the room sometimes but I believe the hotel should try to limit the chances by taking good care of the rooms

Even though this is mostly the cheeky guests' fault, I'd appreciate the hotel to prevent this from happening. Sandy, very clean, actually not very crowded compared to the other beaches nearby

Beautiful resort in a beautiful location, however, few things are missing to give it a full score. The hotel offers great views at the mountains on one side and the open sea on the other

If you want to enjoy your holiday Solimar Ruby is a very good choice. I love this place- close to the beach, close to The city center. Amazing staff, nice rooms, everything is clean, big pool, tasty food

The hotel has a very nice pool area (2), excellent buffet style dining with food to suit all tastes and the seafront is a short walk (5mins) from the hotel

I had the best time at Solimar Ruby! The staff are kind, considerate and friendly. They take care of your every need with a smile

Food was good, pools are nice and localization is quite good - not far away from the city center

Excellent hotel with amazing staff that couldn't so enough for us.

The food was lovely, and differentiated every day so you got to experience plenty of the Greek cuisine, however there was still plenty of food who preferred the original "spaghetti" or the likes

Excellent view from the hotel especially for breakfast. Staff are super friendly and helpful, we had breakfast included and the selection was excellent

And the Taxi from Malia is 10 Euros each way (4 minute drive lol), which is obviously not the real price, but for Westerners, the least we can do is help out the economy a little, so I didn't complain about that personally

The woman whom I forgot the name of, and sorry for getting it wrong, but I think she was Eastern European or Russian, was extremely classy, and informative, she went above and beyond for my family and always helped in any way that we needed

Secondly, because we checked in very late, they left us each a bottle of wine, with food and salad. And not going to lie, that was a highlight for me. I personally poured that wine down at 3AM, and dipped into the pool

The villa is well-equipped, clean and simply perfect. The location of the hotel is truly dreamy, located on the mountain, with a simply stunning view, and is close to all the main places

Now moving onto the actual hotel. Firstly, they gave us a free upgrade as we were a family and we had different villa types, but they put us next to each other via upgrading

Breakfast had plenty of options, the coffee was excellent, and the service from the girls working there was amazing. They had an answer to all our questions and helped us a lot

It was one of the best 10-day vacations we've ever had with my partner. The rooms were beautiful, the housekeeping staff came in every day, and everything was spotless

Special thanks to Mairy the bar woman we met there, she was so fun to speak to, so interesting and kind person and made delicious drinks and the cocktails were the best we’ve had! We’re excited for our next visit now and I can’t recommend enough this amazing hotel! You need to go see and get the experience yourself to understand! Btw You HAVE to ask Mairy of her cocktais and drinks recommendations...

Beautiful clubs, fantastic restaurants, and the sea is also just a short walk away. It was truly one of the best vacations we’ve ever had. Thank you so much for everything, and we’ll definitely see you again next year!

Superb location, close to the old town, shops and taverns, bus stops and not far from the beach. The breakfast buffet was varied and tasty. The pool has a bar and a good selection of foods and drinks

Theres also a car/atv rental dierektly across the street and you're just 2 mins away from the nearest bus stop. And last but not least the staff is incredebly friendly and always in a good mood

One particular incident really stood out: I accidentally knocked over a glass by the pool—an honest mistake—and was immediately charged for it without so much as a conversation or warning. No understanding, just a bill

To make matters worse, I was charged an outrageous fee for a tiny makeup mark on a towel—something that any decent hotel would consider normal wear and tear. Some* of the staff were rude and unhelpful

Lunch and dinner again were very enjoyable and had a variety of foods including pies, pizza, pasta, chicken dishes and cakes, however my partner and I both agreed that there needs to be more ‘ picky bits of food ‘ such as easy food including burgers, variety of pizzas, sausages and sausage rolls and more

Unfortunately, my stay at this hotel was incredibly disappointing. While the location seemed promising, the experience was overshadowed by hidden fees and poor customer service

Everybody is so warm friendly - and beyond efficient. This is customer service at its best. In particular the family really want to know you and ensure your happiness

It is with feedback such as this that motivate us to continuously offer the best quality service and experience to our guests. Please be assured your comments will be shared with our Team

We spent a week on Crete and the hotel was a good choice, close to all important amenities and entertainment hubs, but far enough to not be bothered by the noise

Rooms: clean, refreshed daily, basic furnishings. Breakfast: something different every day, although similar. Choice of tea, coffee, juice and water. Very nice lady serving the kitchen

Location: close to the center of town, about 20 minutes walk to the beach, the same amount to the mountains. Lots of grocery and souvenir stores, restaurants and bars. Service: very nice, helpful, doing a great job

I’ve been to some hotels but this hotel is the absolute best! 100% recommend going all inclusive as food is amazing and the bar is full of different choices to drink (Try raki, vodka and lemonade from there)

Thanks to everyone at Creta Verano for making my time in Malia the best experience I have had. I would 100% be returning back here for longer!

Parking just In front of the hotel in public parking. Rooms clean, cleaned out every day. The pool is just perfect for an after beach relax or upon a windy day. Malia old town is a must and it is just 5min walking

We stayed 12 days in Anesea hotel and it was the best choice we could make! The service, the food and cocktails are really good. Everything is clean and the staff is really nice

Not only because the hotel is superbly maintained, the rooms are wonderful and the grounds are a little dream, but because the hotel has a good soul in Roger who is second to none! He knows the names and preferences of all his guests, always has a good tip and a funny saying ready

Beautiful, modern hotel with great staff. Very well maintained and well located, so restaurants etc. Beautiful pool area and great service (fair prices and very good food). Thank you for the great and warm stay!

The hotel of 2019, given the short season of 2020 - completely new! The rooms are very cozy and modern. There is good Wi-Fi throughout the hotel (this is important). Another positive point is the pool

We returned again and it is great as it was. Service and comfort the best ever. Nice breakfast and beautiful pool. You have to try.

The location is very good between Malia en Stalis, you can walk to both towns. We will recommend Anesea to everyone!

Every show is in english which is good but the announcement is ONLY in german. Yesterday during Greek live music and dances everything was explain in german and I didn't know what this would be about

Very decent hotel; some rooms/apartments are better than others. Our hotel room (main building) was a bit small/dated. Nothing like the pictures :) Also bathroom was old. Safe for valuables costs EUR 4 per day

that’s really beyond what you would expect from a place like this! Especially since it’s ALL inclusive. apparently that doesn’t apply to the safe. Would have loved to see a coffee maker in the room

Pools were really nice; plenty of space, also the beach side is perfect. Very close, plenty of beds, bar right next to the beach - perfect

In my opinion entertainment team should speak, explain rules and make announcements also in english so everybody can understand. FOR PEOPLE WHO DO NOT SPEAK GERMAN IT IS SO FRUSTRATING!!!!!!

Most of guests in this hotel are from Germany so I understand animation team speak german but they also should speak and explain everything in english so everybody can understand what to do

Hotel is right on the sandy beach, yet also in city of Malia. The beach itself is nice and clean, and there is very nice swim out to a small beautiful islet. Sun ubrellas are pre-booked for certain rooms types

If good food is important to you when traveling, you’ll be delighted here. I also have to give special mention to Mr

During our visit, we also took the opportunity to head into the mountains for some scenic walks, explored the charming village of Mochos, and visited the famous archaeological site at the Palace of Malia

Every meal was a real pleasure, starting with generous breakfasts that featured local specialties and moving on to satisfying dinners where both local and international dishes were always well-prepared

During my stay at High Beach, I was truly impressed by Lia Captain! She welcomes everyone with a warm smile and treats all guests with kindness and respect

She talks to everyone in such a friendly and positive way, and whenever someone gives her feedback, she listens carefully and accepts it with an open mind

Fantastic pool area with very friendly staff and good food. Direct access to the beach from pool area as well. Breakfast was not of similar quality though. Also, the hotel coffee was undrinkable

Watch out for two great guys who work there, Armando who does the sun loungers and Tonin one of the waiters really nice guy both have work here for a good few years now always lovely to see them

Stayed here twice bit pricey but well worth it, has a fantastic swimming pool and has easy access to the beach, also has sunbeds to hire

Very nice hotel with feiendly stuff, great beach and always fresh food. Perfect for older people. Calm place.

Just got a couple of negative points: - No music at the bar pool - not expensive but you have to pay the sunbed - we had booked a superior double room, On arrival we were shown the room we had booked (twin bed simple room)

We were told for an extra € 14 a day we could up grade (to the room we booked) pity. We did pay the extra - everything is extra, remote for TV, key for the safe Ask me if I would stay again

Excellent cozy hotel, friendly and attentive staff attitude, delicious food, close to the beach. rest are 100% satisfied!

We stayed there as a couple and were completely satisfied. It was our second time, and we’ll definitely be coming back! The hotel is great, and the value for money is absolutely right

We rested in this hotel with a group and everyone was very satisfied. The beach is close and sandy, the swimming pool is ok for refreshing. The food and service are very good. There were also live performers a few times

Really great hotel with perfect prices and a delicious buffet. But the absolute highlight is the bar! The bartender is top-notch, mixes the best drinks, and is always quick, friendly, and on point

A real quiet place to stay, local cucine, simply and super food. Even is in center of the local movies no noises in the night. A real good place to relax , good cocktails. The beach is a walking distance

the hotel is in a very good location, close to the main street and beaches, despite the proximity it is not noisy at all. great staff and very clean

The hotel is very nice and recommendable, not too big and a well-kept complex. The service is great, Maria Brazil and her colleagues are very friendly. A few minutes walk to the beach and the pool is fantastic too

Brand new hotel, amazing hospitality, good breakfast and excellent location, 10 min from malia old town. Very recommended!!!

They are friendly, attentive, and always have an open ear. We particularly want to mention Maria from the reception. She welcomed us warmly, is professional, and a wonderful person

Thanks for everything! Especially for your kindness, dear Maria from the reception, Maria Brazil and all the other support from the crew. We hope to be able to come back soon!

We can only recommend this hotel to singles, couples, and others who want to travel away from package tourism. Thank you very much and see you next time

One of the best experiences! I loved the Greek hospitality and the family owned feeling. The staff is lovely and at your service for whatever you might need at any time of the day

One of the best hotel in Malia! Breakfast is super! But the most delicious is the “Cretan corner”. Perfect cocktails near the pool

Located on the busy street, full of night clubs, restaurants and shops, a true pearl of Malia, restaurant Dionyssos really is

We were 2 girls and we asked for a room away from the guys who had a wonderful wife and the owner of the place exchanged us for an amazing room. It was a good holiday for them

I was staying at this hotel, the service was excellent. The hotel owners are charming people and whole staff with a wide heart

A family type business, it impressed me with sweet and caring staff, which made me feel welcomed. The hotel has been recently renovated, and I liked the lobby and the dining area

The food was quite good, but I wish there was a bottled water, as a table water made served during dinner me somewhat sick

We had an exceptional experience with the wellness services at High Beach Melia Hotel. My wife and I were thoroughly satisfied with the excellent service provided

modern spacious well planned facilities great view on sea and beach well organisés beach with reserved beach beds. good restaurant on the beach plenty of public spaces on property

Luxury suites directly on the beach. The summer breeze is keeping us totally relaxed. Very clean and very luxus rooms while the service team is Very friendly. Superior service from breakfast to dinner

What a beautiful resort and what a nice people. Especially Didi she is very friendly always joyful. She represent a very nice wellness. Also the staff in the wellness is very professional

The furnishings are modern and very clean. There are loungers available for each room on the beach. The two restaurants are well run and the food is delicious and varied

Additionally, Didi's professional approach in arranging a suitable time and space for our session was commendable. We highly recommend their services

A lovely family run hotel, Mikey, Panos, Peter and Joseph did their best to make sure our holiday was good. They have just fitted new mattresses and had a wonderful sleep! The rooms are comfortable and cleaned every day.

English Breakfast which was included is not the best v limited and is the same everyday, not bad for one day but then becomes boring. The cleaning of the studio could be better but it was ok

the security were sound, but did walk in on me at a bad time😳 the drinks were a good price aswell as the food. the pool had a great atmosphere and everyone loved me and my mates tricks

Unbelievable place, brilliant staff and an all around perfect place to stay. Iosif, Panos and all the staff make sure you have the best time possible. Greek scousers 👍

Best hotel ever! Staff are super friendly and always go the extra mile to make sure you’re having a comfortable stay! Hotel rooms are clean and beds are comfy.

We had a lovely time here it was like going on holiday to your family nothing was too much trouble for the staff even when they run out of teabags kate brought some in from home for the girls we felt very safe with all the security guards at night time and keeping the noise down at night time the rooms were cleaned every day

U dont need to go to one hotel 4 stars or 5, on this place u feel like u are in home, the treatment here is the best, they are like a family I totally recommend this place, they deserve 50 stars not 5. The best holiday

Not too far from the main lively strip with lots of bars and restaurants, very close to the old town and bus station. A good size pool is available at the hotel including a strong wifi and a cute bar

Has a nice restaurant near it with really good food and acceptable prices. There are like 10 parking spots near the building and a medium size pool

We had a wonderful stay there, the rooms were clean and well furnished. We loved the breakfast not only because it’s delicious but also due to the best trip recommendations by Van and his crew

Lovely boutique hotel owned by a Greek family. Excellent size renovated rooms, very welcoming, Great breakfast prepared by the owner’s wife Katerina. We stayed in July and my kids enjoyed it

We ate breakfast at the hotel and the dinner at the restaurant next door, Sopato, and the food was tasty and the meals were consistent. If we ever visite Malia again, we will make sure to come back to this lovely place

Beautifull, clean, lively and lovely place right by the beach. Close to everything we were after. Customers from babies to seniors but mostly on the younger side. Great food both at the beach bar and buffet

It's a nice, well-maintained hotel in a beautiful location on the beach and on the edge of Malia. The staff is friendly and helpful. Definitely recommended

We enjoyed our stay 100%! Everything that was said in booking site, was kept. So read the terms while making the booking, as you should always do anyways

Good place for anybody nice beach nice water sports and most important friendly and professional staff. 2 swimming pools 1 with slides for kids lot of fun for all family!

It was a very nice experience. I went parasailing and it was very nice, staff was very sociable and i felt amazing. I would come back sometime

The location is excellent — just a five-minute walk from the very center of Malia, and only one minute to a beautiful beach, which, in my opinion, is one of the most stunning and comfortable on the entire eastern coast of Crete
