We really enjoyed our stay. The welcome we received was outstanding. The pool and amenities were great. Free parking in front of the hotel was so easy. Breakfast was nice, choice of everything you could wish for. The service was always friendly and everything was spotless. Our room and attached bathroom were not large but we had a nice spacious terrace attached to the room, very comfortable. And not to forget, the location of Dedalos hotel is really really great. Walking distance to all the fun city center and beach but far enough in order to not hear noise. This hotel is really economical and well worth the price. To sum it up : WONDERFUL !!!!! THANK YOU KOULA and thank you to all at Dedalos hotel.

The room is much smaller than it appears and from my measurements smaller than stated. It’s very noisy at night, from the attached bar that blasts music to 4 or 5 retirees all night. The pool is too small to even do a lap. It’s about the size of 2 parking spots. The building in general is run down. The area it’s located in is completely run down. Vacated storefronts everywhere. The only businesses left are trinket shops and euro dive bars. On a positive note, there was plenty of towels and the cleaning lady was very.

Another hidden gem unlocked, this time on Crete. Still looking like new, good location and with its "own" restaurant just across de the street. Cute employees, delivering perfect service, from checking in to serving breakfast (which, btw, was another big surprise regarding how good it was and the way it was offered) or giving direction/information about what to do in the area. Also, I can understand a little bit of Greek, especially the "bad words", so the banter that went between them didn't go unnoticed and it was funny, especially at breakfast time. The beach is less than 15min of walking away and the old city less than 5 minutes. The "strip" with all the bars/clubs can be reached in less than 10min, same with the supermarkets. If you don't feel like walking to the beach, you can park yourself at the hotel's pool and relax. The bathrooms are clean, the shower large enough, nothing is cramped. The rooms also have a small "kitchen" area, with everything one needs. Also, pretty good AC. The restaurant is nicely decorated, on two levels and it has plenty of tables. The menu is about the same, everywhere on the island. Ate 2-3 times there, solid cooking. Parking spaces right next to the hotel (private parking, for customers).

Hands down one of the best places I have ever had the privilege of visiting in the world. Not only are the facilities amazing but the staff made you feel like family. The city of Malia and its people have stolen my heart. The hospitality of the people were beyond my expectations. These people are humble and authentic. I will never forget this experience and my new friends. I am currently making plans to return as soon as possible.

Malia is a great place for food, beaches and a good location...

Malia is a great place for food, beaches and a good location to explore some of the surrounding areas. The old town provides amazing Cretan restaurants, pretty much all good, and some, like the Avli, Getonia, Sokaki, and Brassierie are excellent. Book a table if there in the busy season. There are local palace ruins which are well worth a visit and easy to get to on the happy train, which is also an experience on its own and does various trips up to the hills as well around town and locally. If there for while definitely book some trips out on a boat, as the sea is just deliciously clean and refreshing, and if feeling adventurous take a boat to Spinalonga and have a wander among the old leper colony. If you can get up in the hills, a visit to Lasithi Plato and make sure you stop off at the restaurant Taksiarhos - where all the food is home made by Joanna, the wife of Taksiarhos who owns this place - it is a complete treat to meet both of them as have a truly authentic Cretan meal and experience. And once the cave is back open (hopefully in 2026) visit Zeus' birth place just a little further up the hill. But of course, the weather is just fab here so do enjoy the sun be it on a beach or by a pool!

It’s nice beach location ! Lots of British young people ! Everyone super friendly ! Just opposite our Primavera beach hotel - nice sandy beach ! Please check prices for sunbeds !!! On first day we payed 80! euro ( Nissos beach ) for 4 sunbeds. Next day gone to Bikini beach ( just left side from Nissos entrance ) - and you get sunbeds for 9 euro !! Feel the difference!!! But food at Bikini beach was not so good as at Nissos or Pleasure beach ( to the right from Nissos beach ) From restaurants near by ours favorite was Drossiya !

When you're here, don't just party and beach!

When you're here, don't just party and beach! Take some time to explore the old town. Beautiful flowers, charming little streets and houses... This isn't an advertisement, but if you're there, check out the Honey Corner next to the little church to see the handmade honey, olive oil, and soaps. They make wonderful souvenirs to take home with you!

Malia is simply wonderful and I have visited it for the second time in the last two years. For those who like action and lots of tourists, then the center of Malia will definitely meet their expectations. On the other hand, there are also quieter parts on the eastern side of Malia. Great restaurants and the local people are simply amazing. Malia is also wonderfully located so that a trip to the big cities like Heraklion or Agios Nikolaos does not take more than half an hour or so.

End of season get your sightseeing in - perfect weather for it! Matala trip to see the Caves & Hippy-village was wonderful - quad bike trip - Iraklion etc etc hire a car, good pricing. Bus pricing is even better., takes from airport to Malia in less than hour for approx 4/5euro Malia Main strip is barely open (which suits many non-partying folk) witnessing the locals wind down & wake-up to their own life/priorities was wonderful. Watching little ones head to school - national OXi Day parade. Weather in late 20s mid Oct to early 20’s towards November… cooler evenings so take some warmer clothing.

So my review is of the ilios Malis Apt. I was also a little upset that I wasn't given an option of other like for like hotels in the area, as the reviews for this one were a little worrying, money been stolen by the cleaners.

We spend lovely holidays in Dimamiel Malia Inn with family. This is perfect place to rest and explore eastern Crete. The owners are very nice and helpful, the apartments are cleaned every day, the swimming pool is clean, shops are right next to it, the sandy beach is only 5 minutes away. We highly recommend this place with my family .
