Top Malia Ruins Hotel Reviews

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."

Enorme Santanna Island - Premium All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel, nice swim up rooms. Food was great, no complaints whatsoever."

Ilios Malia Hotel Resort

8/10 Good

"The staff are super friendly and helpful. The pool area is beautiful and there's a lounge for convenient access to food and beverages."

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!!!"

Yiannis Manos

10/10 Excellent

"I can't recommend this property enough, from start to finish the whole experience was excellent, modern, immaculately clean, and THE most incredibly warm and helpful staff, a special mention to Emma who worked so hard to make sure every guest was looked after and comfortable with a beaming smile and brilliant craic. Walking distance to everything you would want, a 10 to 15 minute walk to Malia centre, I recommend turning right and right again from the hotel down to Malia Port and Potamos beach with some gorgeous 5 star hotel bars and restaurants you can visit and away from the busy Malia town. You can also walk from here to the Minoan Malia Palace which is definitely worth visiting. If you want accommodation that is close to everything, modern, neat and tidy, 2 pools, good food and bar options and incredibly friendly you won't go far wrong with Yiannis Manos."

Sarpidon Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect area exactly what we wanted"

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."

Phāea Cretan Malia, a Member of Design Hotels

10/10 Excellent

"This is a beautiful resort with a gorgeous beach and wonderful restaurants. It’s very quiet and has a lot of families with young children. The rooms are spacious with nice balconies and I would stay here again if I ever go back to Crete."

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"
