Hotels in Malia

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

We feel like home here! It's the third time we have come to this hotel and we found each time warm people and high quality services. This time my wife has chosen a 3 days package at the Aegeo spa and she was delighted. Albana was her therapist and she is very attentive, caring, communicative and concerned that the client feels good and satisfied. I have used the gym and I found it as very good for...

Beautiful facility and very friendly staff. Everything is very clean. Food in the main restaurant is not 5-star class…

The spa staff is very friendly. I would recommend the cretan massage, it was very relaxing and a great start to a relaxing day. Maria of the spa staff was very friendly and massaged me perfectly. Bosiljka of the spa staff is very open and approachable and very nice. The staff in general is very friendly and helpful. The alexander hotel is very clean and has a nice infrastructure. The pool restaurants...

Simona had very soft hands and it felt really good. She‘s very charming too. I enjoyed the head and neck massage the most.

Really good service and lovely massages from Simona and Ernestis. I feeling fully relaxed and taken good care of and do warmly recommend any of them.

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

Beautiful resort in a beautiful location, however, few things are missing to give it a full score. Pros. The hotel offers great views at the mountains on one side and the open sea on the other. It has its own sun beds on the beach for its guest, and there is usually no problem to find a spot there. Other than the beach, the large pool is also a great place to chill (I think it was a good idea to remove...

We loved our stay, the hotel is very quiet, the location is perfect. You can admire the sunset while you eat. The staff is very nice, especially the restaurant's chef ! I highly recommand !

Best place ever you get everything there sea mountain beach love it and the food is amazing a big buffet 😁😁😁

Gently sloping beach ideal for families. Red flag occasionally on the beach due to wind/waves. Quiet family atmosphere. Little entertainment which is fine. Good food. Roast meat option nearly every night. Weekly barbecue.

Overall a great stay. The room was a bit small, no coffee service in the room. Booked the Superior Bungalow Sea View - we were pretty far back from the ocean. There were bungalows right along the beach area so not sure what the difference was. Otherwise the stay was great - excellent breakfast, staff was top notch.

Beautiful property, right on the beach with crystal clear waters and warm sand. The staff were fantastic and always willing to help/answer questions or give recommendations for tours or food etc. I had an amazing stay and I could see the ocean from my bed. What more could a girl ask for!?

Amazing place in North Cretan island. A very nice place to relax far from crowded place. People are very friendly and service very nice. I recommend the Ayeri restaurant for breakfast and dinner. Waitresses are very professional. I also recommend the Aegos spa for their kindness and efficient.

I had a lovely experience with Mrs Eleni🤲 she guide me true tradition relaxing 75min of ⛰️Cretan massage all body with local raky🍵 and 🫒 oil. Was amazing and deep 💦🙏 with luxury Spa facility arounded🌊 pleasure for body. Recommend try out whe you here 👍 Thank you. With regards Sport Specialist Peter

We had a wonderful time at the hotel. Everything is beautiful here. The entire staff is friendly, everyone, really everyone 😅, and everyone speaks at least English, which is very positive. The entire staff is super helpful as well. Maybe those who like modern buildings won't like it, but those who prefer rooms and bungalows in small, secluded, and quieter separate buildings will love it. The hotel...

This is a beautiful place with lots of greenery, direct access to the beach, nice food options. Some beautiful seaviews. Rooms are kept very clean. The staff at the restaurants, SPA, reception desk and cleaning service is well trained, polite and kind. Food options are varied and food quality is good. All Inclusive was good value for money and included some drinks. 2 bottles of still water are made...

Generally good experience with everything. The location is stunning, the pools and seating as well as the restaurants are located beautifully along the coastline with views to the sea. The "village" of bungalows and buildings looks very nice. Greenery is mainted well and is in general beautiful. What really makes this a recommendable experience is the location/view and the impeccable and immaculate...

Very nice looking hotel with poor service levels. More of a 4*, not 5*. Messed up our reservations, tried to overcharge us, also made lots of small mistakes, and were not very apologetic, even the manager. When I shared feedback the staff did not welcome it, instead being defensive and saying "this is how we do things". No desire to listen and improve. Not value for money. Also loads of children ...

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. 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. I'd say it is a family...

NOT WORTH THE PRICE. DEFINITELY NOT A 5 STAR HOTEL. 🛌Rooms: As the hotel claims to be member a member of Design Hotels, we expected a well furnished room. Instead it was pretty basic and not design at all. Maybe you just need to put a FAKE FlowerPot VP1 pendant light from &Tradition in the room. Furthermore the furniture within the room looked pretty used and as they have their best days behind them...

For a 5* hotel, I expected more. The service is pretty shocking honestly, everything was below a 3*, aside from Dayanna, who quite frankly is the only person who seems to understand and value customer service. Rooms- at first it was just me and my daughter and the room was fine, just what we needed but definitely not luxury. My partner and other child came out for the last 3 days and we “upgraded”...

Very aesthetic hotel with calm atmosphere and coniferous trees. Peaceful vibe, tasty food and very good evening show, especially Dj&Sax!

I’ve recently stayed at the Cretan Malia Park 5* hotel. It’s an amazing place with five different restaurants, two pools and an own access to the beautiful sand beach. The food was delicious. For me there was almost everything included, because I chose the all inclusive package. Most of the food was Cretan style and there was also an Italian restaurant. The vegetarian and vegan options are very good...

Horoshee mestopolozhenie. Chistota norm. Personal radushnyy. Zavtrak po sisteme shvedskiy stol - skudnovat. Otvratitelnaya vannaya

Budget friendly and helpful people but... The bed was horrible and if you have the chance go to another place and take care of your back. It is still a spring-mattress. The breakfast buffet was eatable however the hygiene of the coffe-machine and the overall taste and variety of the breakfast leave to much improval potential. The rooms are cleaned regularly however the ventilation is so bad, that...

My second visit to this hotel this year, I always enjoy my holiday here (see previous reviews). I have to write this review due to the new super-fast wifi that has been installed. This enabled me to stream films and live football games on my device within the hotel- this is especially handy should the weather turn bad which occasionally happens, or if I just needed to stay out of the sun in a nice...

Great Hotel and staff, all of which are friendly and helpful. The rooms are very clean, as indeed was the rest of the hotel, with fresh towels and bedding every two days. Had air conditioning, a shower which always had hot water and the most comfortable mattresses. Very fast wifi with excellent coverage. Superb location, close to the old town, shops and taverns, bus stops and not far from the beach...

Very friendly staff, very clean! The room furnishings and bathrooms are not new, but everything is in good shape. The breakfast is OK. The pool area with bar is absolutely up to date. I think price-performance ratio is outstanding! Small comment on the negative reviews: If you book 3 stars, you shouldn't expect 5 stars.

This hotel is located in the heart of Malia, all shops and restaurants are close. The pool area is well maintained, filled with fruit trees and enough sunbeds for everyone. Pool bar offers nice food and drinks, ice cream, coffee etc. Friendly service. Overall there is a cosy feeling almost throughout the family owned hotel. Breakfast waiters were the only two persons at the hotel who did not seem to...

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. When we checked out, I was shocked to find several unexpected charges that were never mentioned during our stay. To make matters worse, I was charged an outrageous fee for a tiny makeup mark on a towel—something that any decent...

What a wonderful hotel to enjoy a late 60th birthday present. The minute you walk through the door to be met with the warmest of welcomes, a truly great experience starts. 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. My very special thanks go to Mum and Daughter who showered...

We recently just stayed at Matheo for a week in May and honestly we cannot fault it. On arrival they kindly upgraded our room to the suite and it was beautiful. All the staff were very friendly and accommodating. They could not do enough for us, they were very kind and helpful. We would highly recommend and would 100% visit again.

Great staff, very friendly people everywhere: reception, housekeeping, waiterd, bars - all of them are very good and helpful. We had great time, our room was very beautiful and clean. Food was very good, and great theme restaurants. Thank you and we will be definitely back one day!

Dear guest's Thank you very much for writing such lovely reviews further to your recent stay at the matheo villas and suites. We are delighted you enjoyed your experience and that our staff were helpful to you. 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...

Best bachelor ever!! 😍😍 I knew that whenever I go with my besties I'd have an amazing time but Mutsis Rinela was something special... It's really worth it. Beautifull hotel, delicious food, amazing staff in each restaurant and unforgettable memories. I'm gonna bring my future husband here next year! Thank you for an amazing time!

Great small hotel. Food was good, pools are nice and localization is quite good - not far away from the city center. During our last minutes in the hotel we've left mobile phone, they didnt make any problems with sending it back to our home. Hotel staff is generaly very kind.

Very beautiful Hotel. I will definitely come back for holidays

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... I will come back soon

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

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. 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. I can definitely recommend this place to anyone who wants to enjoy crete in...

The hotel is aimed at the system all in. The hotel staff is good-natured and friendly. Stopped by late at night and a room on the 1st floor did not like. The next day the problem was solved in 15 minutes. The pool is large , the choice of food is great . Guests can rent a car. You have to walk for 15-20 minutes, no problem for us. But we took the ATV and drove to the beach, 4 km from the hotel, there...

Excellent view from the hotel especially for breakfast. Staff are super friendly and helpful, we had breakfast included and the selection was excellent. Everything was super clean and the staff couldn’t be more helpful with our requests. Would definitely recommend and come again!

The Royal Heights Resort impresses with its spectacular view over Malia. The room seemed in good condition, though it was obvious that renovations are needed sooner than later. Staff was always attentive and very friendly, they were trying their best everyday.

Always good but now even better. This was our fourth time back at the resort and we were glad to see that it's survived the pandemic with many of the existing staff, but they're making improvements! We had villa 408 which now has 40Mb wifi and very comfortable memory foam memory toppers. Of course, the food is still excellent - it's really nicely done authentic Greek food with superb service. If...

Perfect holiday escape. Friendly and competent service, will return.

Breakfast was nice and the private pool was great during these troubling times. However we spent a considerable amount of money to have a private Villa but every weekend the hotel was over run by locals with a day pass and some sort of DJ blasting music out all day which was so loud you could not hear yourself think and after we complained apparently the hotel are powerless to stop this as these people...

Best vacation of my life so far. Edit: 30.07.2021 2nd visit here. We wanted to come back because it Was so good here. Athina is still here and she is the heart of the customer experience. I really hope they pay you Well. Our waiter Was Ilias who also is a very good and friendly waiter, always looking our for you and remembers your favourites. Sadly his collegue does not have a nametag, He is also right...

Great Stay, I recently stayed at this hotel for six days and had an excellent experience. The staff was incredibly welcoming and always willing to help, ensuring I had everything I needed. The room was clean, spacious, and had a stunning view of the surroundings. I particularly enjoyed the amenities, such as the pool and on-site dining options, which added to the relaxing atmosphere. The hotel's location...

We were very satisfied with our stay. It was amazing for 4*, rooms were nice and cleaned every day, drinks strong and food delicious, we could not decide what to try out first. We had at least some seafood for every meal. Staff was super nice, manager was interested in our opinion and comfort. I would recommend this hotel to anyone.👌🏻

Everything was perfect, a lot of food, always fresh and well prepared. The staff was kind and helpful. The locality was good, the town of Malia is approximately 25 mins walking. Nice and clean rooms. The director is looking after the whole hotel and asks the guests whether they’re happy, it seems like he cares about the hotel. He has given us a bottle of wine as gift. I definitely recommend this place...

I stayed in the Malia Bay Beach Hotel with my friend for a week. We got a great room with a view on the pool. The rooms aren’t big, however they are in a great condition. AC works which is so useful due to the heat outside. The food in the hotel was great. They have different food theme almost every day and i must say the food was indeed delicious. The staff is really nice and helpful. I had an overall...

We stayed in the hotel for a total of 6 days. The location is amazing and the beach is found in front of the hotel which we loved. The animation in the hotel is amazing and offers entertainment for all ages. In the night there are shows which we enjoyed watching. The food was decent. Overall we would recommend this hotel to anyone who wants to visit Crete !

The staff was very friendly, always smiling and ready to help. In the restaurant we enjoyed the food was fantastic with plenty of choices. Thanks a lot to our housekeeper, she was amazing. For sure will come back again.

Great position!!! Just beside the beach! Lovely meals!!! All of the were tasty! Great both quality and quantity! Really new room! Evreything was in great condition. Very beautiful furniture and the bed was really comfortable. The bath had great design! Everything wa really clean!! Anybody we met in the hotel, was really willing to help us!

Very good hotel. Food very good. I can say that there was everything that should be in a three star hotel. Very friendly service.

Staff was very friendly and always avaliable! Room was cleaned every day which was nice. The placement of the hotel is also a huge plus: 50 m to nearest supermarket and the main shopping street in Malia is also right by. The beach is also very close. The only downsides for me is the interior, food and the AC of the hotel. We got the breakfeast package and the food is equal to the three stars of the...

The staff are incredible! Helpful and friendly and very knowledgeable. Not a bad word to say about the hotel, clean rooms, great service, fresh food and always a smile and a story. 5 minutes from the beach and 5 minutes from the old town, perfect location and a great base from which to explore the island. Can't wait to come back next year.

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

Liebes AneSea Team, thank you for everything ! This is the nicest little Design-Hotel we ever stayed at. We would actually like to take AneSea Hotel with us on our travels ... :-) If you think stylish Design-Hotel with all comforts and feeling welcome like family doesn´t go together, think again and try AneSea Hotel ! This place really has it all ... great breakfast, food, wine, cocktails ... a beautiful...

A super hotel with amazing staff who go the extra mile to ensure all their guests have an amazing holiday.

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

One of the best hotels in Crete. 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. Absolutely recommended - I will 100% come back!

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.

This was the second we have stayed at the Ibiscus, lovely family run hotel, great location for the Malia Strip and the old town, rooms are clean, beds comfortable, great breakfast by the pool, it suited all our needs, for a September break in the sun,

Me and 3 friends booked as a cheap package holiday, not expecting anything amazing…however although we’d accidentally booked two separate flats (2 doubles) they gave us one big apartment with a balcony overlooking the pool and a great view :) The family running the place were all lovely, and exceeded our expectations with how welcome they made us feel. On two separate days we were chilling by the...

Staff are so friendly and helpful, and the rooms were clean and tidy. We really enjoyed our stay here!

My friends and I were staying in Hibiscus Hotel for 6 days and we enjoyed every moment ! Right from the beginning, the kind and thoughtful service made us feel wanted. During the vacation, Helany, Harry, Leonidas and Dimitri (the owners of the hotel) helped us get around in this amazing area and serviced us kindly. Every question or request was answered. In conclusion, GO TO HIBISCUS !

Very very nice!!Great service!!Nice BIG pool!! Beautiful restaurant, bar and lobby!! The room was a bit small though and the food was ok but could have been better!

Rooms: clean, refreshed daily, basic furnishings. No objection. 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...

Nice hotel, friendly owner... Great breakfast. 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.

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). Everyone who works there are all professional that are very respectful with great personality’s and easy to get on with. This hotel is ideal for everyone as the location is on the street with...

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. The food was always fresh and quite varied, even for a vegetarian. Maria was adorable and always looked after each guest. The bar staff was always there to assist. The pool and the room were clean, sheets and towels changed. Nino was the...

Great place, friendly staff and amazing food. Thank you! :)

Back in September 2024, we stayed in this hotel for our lads holiday, and it was a lovely, relaxing and atmospheric experience. Firstly, everything was absolutely fantastic, the buffet breakfast was delicious. Those Madeira cakes are to die for! The hotel was stunning and the overall design and layout was amazing. The room was very comfortable and the sizes of the room were brilliant. It was nice that...

We had a great 4 days at Dedalos hotel Malia. Great WELCOME Great POOL and facilities. Great ROOM with attached small bathroom and terrasse. Great FREE PARKING in front of the hotel Great friendly SERVICE. Great BREAKFAST buffet Great LOCATION walking distance to the beach and fun strip but too far to have noise. Great reasonable Price for what is offerred. WONDERFUL THANK YOU DEDALOS HOTEL.

The room was pretty big, but too vintage looking and far away from the photos, but it was worth the price we paid. We arrived on the 4th of sept and they changed our towels only after 4 days… I don’t think that is normal for a 3 star hotel. Also in the 6 day they didn’t clean at all the room. The breakfast was the same the whole week and also if we were going after 9:30 there was nothing left. At ...

This hotel is amazing if you’re staying in Malia. Everything is within a walking distance. Also Malia is known for the nightlife but we didn’t have much trouble from the noise. They clean the pool every morning and the place looks very peaceful and tidy. Thank you to Koula for the warm welcome and see you later! :)

We were given one of the rooms that hadn't been done up. Others were much better. Hotel is very clean and breakfast was good. The hotel is a stones throw from the main strip, but the hotel is not affected by any noise at all. The hotel is strict when it comes to noise and party's in the hotel, and whilst Koula is in charge nothing will change, she is strict and yet super helpful at the same time...

Thank you for your hospitality. Good hotel in good price, run by dedicated people.

I like that Nikos Hotel is not in the centre so it's quite (besides Mondays when you may expect big techno party just opposite site). I dont like the fact that pool at the bar is closed at 7pm, this is big disadventage that is why 4 stars. Towers changed once a week, breakfast the same every day but in principle good when you take a look at the price.

Rooms very clean, great staff, room doesn t have tv and you have to pay for aircon, cleaning is rare

Each room has its own balcony, rooms with a different number of beds, the linen is always clean. Responsive hosts. The hotel is located in the center of Malia, very convenient if you want to have access to bars and restaurants day and night, there is a 24 hour shop nearby.

A good place. Noisy from the music in the evening, but show me where it is not noisy?

The cutest place in Malia. Stefan is a sympathetic and kind owner, Arthur (the dog) knows a lot about meeting guests.

To sleep and take a shower, norms! There is a kettle on the second floor, everything is paid ... conder day 5 euros refrigerator 5 euros a day!

I'm actually still here at the moment and go home Wednesday 7th August...I'm loving this hotel so much I had to leave a review now...the rooms are basic but air conditioning is wonderful especially with the unbelievably hot weather...the staff are super friendly and helpful... especially Bill the hotel owner... very nice bloke... hotel overall is clean and tidy and looks well looked after...the food...

Nice hotel with peace and relaxation!!! Friendly staff and clean space!!! In a nice location with options at the beach in 10 minutes and also in the old village for nice food again in 10 minutes!!!

I recommended this Hotel for your holidays, it was awesome. The owners are unbelievable, sweet, warm and welcoming. There is a swimming pool in front of the hotel, it’s nice to enter in when it’s hot. They propose different drinks at the bar near of the swimming pool. My room was nice, small terrace to play board games, chat, smoke and hang out wet laundry. For the breakfast there is a many choices...

Great Hotel! The staff is extra friendly (never saw something like that in a hotel before), the location is great (10min from beautiful beach, the clubs are also very close, the bus station is 150m from hotel), they have a nice pool in front of it, the breakfast is delicious, the rooms are nice (you have to pay for air conditioning but you can survive without it if you open the balcony door. Would...

I had a wonderful experience at Pasiphae Hotel. The location looks just like in the pictures. It is a family business, and the owners are always present, taking very good care of the guests. The rooms are very clean, the beds are very good to sleep in, there is daily cleaning, the towels and bed sheets are changed every three days. Some of the rooms have a sea view, which is a very nice addition to...

My stay at the hotel was unique. The stuff were friendly and helpful, the room was very clean and the waiting spaces had a great design. The atmosphere was spectacular. Moreover, the dinner was tasty and the amount served was more than enough. Last but no least, breakfast has to offer so many choices that amazed me. It is by far the best hotel I’ve ever visited.

Wonderful hotel.All the staff are very friendly!The room are very clean!It is next the center and the beach is just a few steps.Thank you,I had a nice holidays.

Had a lovely stay at Icandy Sol. It was a very relaxing and comfortable stay. Specially the new owner of the hotel! New furniture and everything is nice and fresh. Koula is always happy to give you the best information to make your stay unforgettable. The hotel is a walk away from everything and specially from the very nice old center where you can have a great and traditional Greek meal. Supermarket...

The new hostess, Koula is the best. The hotel felt like home. Really close to the beach.

Hi Koula Koula is the new owner now she is amazing. You have everything on your doorstep, lovely pool area, room are beautiful. And Koula is the brilliant owner and host. Plus food is very good. About 20 steps from the hotel you’re on the main road with all the restaurants and bars and supermarkets. It’s about 10 minutes walk to the beach. I would 100% recommend this hotel. See you soon in May can...

Stayed at the Icandy Sol for the second year in a row in July. This small family run hotel is in a fantastic location for the strip but also walking distance to old town with it's fantastic restaurants. The rooms are modern and comfortable and there is a bar and small pool. Everything you want for a base for your holiday to explore and relax. Great value holiday. Thank you 😊

Very sincere Delicious breakfasts Very hospitable hostess I recommend rooms at icandy sol apartments
