Loved by guests
"Breakfast quality was high as they used their own products and house made food."
"The pool was beautiful and even though I prefer a swim in the sea I was too tempted and landed up having a swim every evening."
"Location was perfect for our needs as we were looking for something cute and calm but not too far from the beaches, restaurants and markets."

“This is a well-kept, smaller resort, ideal for families seeking both relaxation and proximity to Malia's attractions, including a walkable distance to the beach and town center; plus, with a kid-friendly pool and playground, it stands out for family-oriented stays. The hotel distinguishes itself with attentive service, a rich breakfast buffet, and optional airport transfers, creating a unique blend of Cretan hospitality and convenient amenities, in my opinion.”
