Top Máleme Beach Hotel Reviews

GT Beach Hotel

8/10 Good

"Nice stay."

Myrion Beach Resort & Spa - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"Really enjoyed my stay. The room was lovely and I made use of the indoor gym which was small but well kitted out. The breakfast selection was good including dairy free options. I also had buffet dinner in the main dining room which was good but as I don’t eat meat, I think it lacked options with veg or fish."

Maleme Mare Beach Resort Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I honestly cannot say enough good things about Maleme Mare Beach Resort! From the moment I arrived, I felt like I was part of the family. Stavros, the resort host, was absolutely amazing! He didn’t just bring guests together and help strangers become friends, he genuinely made every guest feel like they were part of his own family. You could tell he truly cared about everyone and wanted them to have the best experience possible. And Sasha, the bartender, made some of the best drinks and always kept everyone smiling! The entire property was incredibly clean and well maintained, the pool was beautiful, and the views were just breathtaking. Unfortunately, Mother Nature didn’t cooperate for part of my stay, but that didn’t stop me from having a great time! The entertainment was so much fun and there was always laughter and good company. I traveled to Crete solo, but never once felt alone at this resort. The staff and atmosphere made my trip even more special than I could have imagined. I came to Greece for the beautiful beaches and scenery, but I left with wonderful memories and new friends. I would return to Maleme Mare in a heartbeat! Thank you for making my first solo trip to Greece so unforgettable! ❤️🇬🇷"

Villa Stratianna - Villa close to the seaside with private pool in Crete

10/10 Excellent

"Pobyt w tym miejscu był świetny. Bardzo blisko sklepy, restauracje, plaża. Miejsce w spokojnej okolicy, a autem można szybko przemieścić się do wszystkich atrakcji na wyspie. Gospodarze byli bardzo mili i komunikatywni. Jeśli będziemy jeszcze kiedyś na Krecie to z ogromną przyjemnością wrócimy do tego miejsce. Niezapomniane wakacje."

Resitour - Chania Aphrodite Beachfront

8/10 Good

"Manos is amazing, he is super attentive to guest and went out of his way to get us a wine bottle opener and a coffee machine. It was later in the season when we travelled to the mattress/bed and sofa were in need of a good cleaning, the cleaners had in the meantime covered it with linens but there was still a odor from the furniture which Manos tried to aid with by getting new linens and pillows. I would say one opportunity for the space is to ensure that the rooms are fully stocked with the basics like bottle opener, coffee maker, teas/coffee etc as it is a more remote location so people will need to drive to go get food or will use the kitchen that is there. It is definitely a more peaceful beach location and is lovely to walk along the beach to the nearby hotels and their restaurant's."

Daphnis Villas, 4 Villas , Sleep 24, Heated Pool, 200m From The Beach, Sea View

10/10 Excellent

"What a wonderful holiday destination for a large group. Perfect, as we each had our own identical villas, and the pool is a really great size. We loved the outdoor eating area with the bbq, and had many fun evenings enjoying the beautiful surroundings with our friends. The villas are situated in a lovely quiet area, and only a short walk to two lovely restaurants over looking the beach. There are also a couple of supermarkets, coffee places and bakeries with the best doughnuts! Just an 8 min drive away is a busier town with lots of shops and restaurants, so plenty to do in the area, but would recommend a car. Very glad we stayed for 2 weeks, as there was so much to do. Lots of lovely beaches, a great water park, historic sites, and we hired boats and went snorkelling. We loved Crete, and Maria and her husband could not have been more helpful. Would highly recommend."
