Top Malia Ruins Hotel Reviews

Sarpidon Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"Friendly staff! Nice place"

Phāea Cretan Malia, a Member of Design Hotels

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing property, felt very high end but still authentic. The staff is very nice and ready to help. The room was comfy and always beach/pool sunbeds available. The breakfast is amazing 10/10 we looked forward to it every day. The onsite reasturants and drinks were over priced for what you got (but the dinner buffet also 10/10 at 45 euros per person). If you are travelling with a baby they have lots of high chairs at all eating places. The only thing I would say is the pool is deep (for kid swimming) and also if you are not travelling with kids this place is packed with young families (great for us, but if I was on a romantic getaway I would choose adult only resort), the town of Malia is walkable about 25 mins - only 5 min drive. But the town is geared to young clubbers and strip joints… BUT the “old town” is cute and small and has good restaurants, so I would just go into old town to dine out. The beach is nice but more rustic/with large rocks. We enjoyed our stay very much and would highly recommend."

Stelios Gardens

10/10 Excellent

"This one of those hidden gems. The room was amazing, just as it appears in the website photos. The breakfast was excellent with a large variety. I'm on my 4th hotel in Crete and this one I would strongly recommend."

Pyrgos Blue

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely wonderful!!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! Manos and his staff went above and beyond to make sure EVERYONE took care of us. We felt like royalty!!! Rent a car and you are centrally located on the island to almost drive anywhere. ONLY downside, if you are NOT a party goer, the beach bar about one hundred meters away, when live DJ was there, thumped a little too long into the night. Other than that, zero complaints. Also, did a private tour with Kostas, at Stagikas Grand Prestige Tours, who made the experience even better. Highly recommend BOTH!!!"

Alexandros Hotel

8/10 Good

"The staff were amazing. Always available and happy to help and make our stay comfortable. The hotel was good but basic. The bathroom could be improved, especially the shower. They had 2 very well stocked bars., one in the hotel and one near the pool. They stayed open late and served food as well. The hotel was very well located a short walk from the sea and a 5 min walk into town where there were a number of excellent resustrants and bars."

Grecotel Meli Palace

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms were lovely and clean. They were basic compared with the rest of the hotel, they could have done with some more storage or drawers. Food was good, entertainment was great, the children’s pool was a little small but done the job and there was always sun beds. I’d happily go back and I never usually say that"

Solimar Ruby

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, fun and friendly bar staff. Good, clean pools and spacious rooms."
