The room was amazing and very nice. You’re right on the tip or the Malia stripe near the McDonalds. It’s a 2 minute walk to the beach so amazing location. The breakfast is very delicious and theres a lot of options for food and drinks. In the evening it there’s always a Dj that plays really good music. Behind the hotel theres a traditional restaurant “Drossia” where the food is so good too. Overall would highly recommend when coming to Malia.

Nice clean beach. Excellent for children. Not deep. But mostly waves in September, so you can just be at water but not to swim. Friendly staff ready to help you with all your questions. Excellent variety food. Good location near shops and restaurants. Cleaning every day. Changing of towels up to your requests.
