Positives: Remote hill top location in Old Town Malia (10/10). Villas with private 10m to 15m length pools (10/10). Overall the teams were very helpful and did their best to support. Amazing views of Malia from your balcony from the hill top location (10/10). Notable mentions; Alexia at the front desk, New lady in the restaurant from Romania, Male supervisor / manager who helped us after we got locked out of the villa with 2 keys at night. Private pool chemical level being checked. Met the new owner at dinner whilst the teams were stressfully trying to work out our bill for a new menu and he said he his aware of what they need to improve on and service is not were he wants it to be. Negatives: Attention to detail I.e. 1 bed was missing its top cover for the first 3 nights. Very easy to lock yourself out of the villa because of the safety feature on the doors. Service in the restaurant needs to be improved / missed opportunity from the hotel due to isolated location. Catering options are very limited / Menu cards are confusing / Not clear what you have ordered and what you are paying for. Nightly disturbances from staffing quarters into the early morning (stayed in villa 407). No locks on the bathroom or toilet doors. Hot water in the tap & shower is extremely boiling hot. Toilet / Shower room on the lower floor in the 2 bedroom villas should have a solid divider as water gets everywhere. ![Private pool ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/7a46fee5-769b-4bf8-a0b9-f36877d89915-1756125094813.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![View from top floor ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/00b7f26c-f32d-4ce5-b463-15144fa9a99d-1756125105629.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Hill top view ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f8cca8a2-8837-4c3c-a4c6-002bb079b594-1756125105226.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![View over Malia](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8960fa42-9686-4d14-adf6-f356fa2b0378-1756125102609.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Lieu Stayed 8 nights in Aug 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Ines Sabine Sep 19, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities Unterkunft in Minivilla#1 mit eigenem Pool war fantastisch Spektakulärer Blick über Malia und Berge und Mittelmeer, tolle Sonnenuntergänge Fitnessstudio schlecht klimatisiert Verpflegung (Frühstück und Abendessen) unzureichend für ein 5\*Hotel, Service überfordert ##### Ines Sabine Stayed 9 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Markus Aug 1, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Traumhaft über Malia Sehr netter und herzlicher Empfang durch Athena, die gute Seele vom Hotel. Super Bedienung am Frühstück und Abendessen. Kurze Taxifahrt ins Dorf Malia, oder man mietet ein Auto, um noch verschiedene schöne Strände zu erforschen. (Potamos Beach mit Kalyva Taverna sehr empfehlenswert) Einen sehr lieber 3 Beiniger Kater hat uns im Hotel begleitet… für Kinder einfach unvergesslich. Einzig am Abend läuft, für uns zu viel Folkloremusik. Aussicht, Sauberkeit, Pool waren fantastisch! Unbedingt buchen, wenn man nach Malia in die Ferien geht. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/A6AAD32C035ACE9A12DC007A1B34BBAEDEA8AD8E1690887339967.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/879F140AD2D8A55AD735BE2A4FA54498230EB3DD1690887387842.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Markus Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elie Jul 26, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We loved this resort and will definitely be back there next year.

Dersom vi kommer tilbake skyldes veldig mye av dette George. George er noe helt for seg selv. Jeg gir selvsagt skryt til hele personalet som er svært vennlig, serviceinnstilt og hyggelig, men som sagt George er fantastisk fyr! Hotellet hadde fantastisk beliggenhet med tanke på utsikt, veldig praktisk med gratis parkering om man skal leie en bil(anbefales), maten var god-men kunne vært bedre, rommene ble vasket veldig bra og var ellers veldig rene. Det som jeg opplevde og som trekker en god del ned er at vi ofte ble vekket veldig tidlig på morgenen fordi de skulle klippe plenen eller gresset. Jeg forstår det er jobben deres, men jeg tenker de kunne ventet til kl 10 eller senere og ikke før 8. Man er tross alt på ferie for å sove litt ekstra :) ##### Ferhad Ramathan Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### anthony Sep 24, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities stunning location,beautiful and well maintained accomodation. we treated ourselves to a presidential villa. it was bigger than my house with a great pool and garden and view to die for. coming back next year ##### anthony Stayed 9 nights in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Adovi Mawulolo Aug 4, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities le personnel accueillant que ca soit à l'accueil comme autour de la piscine et pour le petit déjeuner et le diner, ils étaient tous sympa jovial et à notre disponibilité.

Tout Le personnel est d’une sympathie inouïe. Les chambres sont spacieuses et la literie est confortable hormis le sofa convertible qui n’est pas fait pour un adulte d’un certain poids. On sent clairement la structure métallique. Le petit déjeuner est copieux et varié. Néanmoins dommage que le jus d’orange ne soit pas frais pour un pays ensoleillé et un hôtel d’un tel standing. En revanche, les plats à la carte du restaurant sont très bons et très bien servis. Dans l’ensemble c’est un très bon hôtel. Merci à Athina pour son accueil et toute son assistance lors de notre séjour. ##### Adil Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### FRANCK Jul 23, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Piscine et personnel au top Excellent séjour de plus les repas et petit déjeuner un délice Établissement recommandable ##### FRANCK Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kathrin Jul 15, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Die Lage ist 10min vom Ort Malia entfernt.

Das Personal ist durchgehend sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Die Anlage ist sehr sauber und gepflegt, Aber in den Zimmern sind ein paar kleine Schönheitsreparaturen fällig und die Betten sind eines 5 Sterne Hotels nicht würdig. Genauso wie das Frühstücksbüffet (insbesondere der Kaffeeautomat (brrrr)), ausgenommen sind hiervon die guten frischen Crêpes (sehr nette Köchin, die auch kleine Extrawünsche erfüllt). Das Abendessen, umrundet von einer wahnsinnig schönen Aussicht über Malia auf’s Meer ist sehr gut! Wir waren Ende Mai für eine Woche vor Ort und hatten die Anlage mit Pool fast für uns alleine. Eines ist noch zu sagen: Wenn man vom Hotel weg möchte, ist unbedingt ein Auto von Nöten, da es auf einem kleinen Hügel ohne Busverbindung liegt! Und das schon alleine um die vielen Strände, Städte oder anderes Sehenswürdigkeiten zu erkunden. Alles in allem konnten wir uns super erholen und entspannen und das war unser Ziel. Also alles gut! ##### Florian Stayed 7 nights in May 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michel Christiaan Daniël May 27, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Erg mooie accommodatie, vriendelijke personeel en lekker eten. ##### Michel Christiaan Daniël Stayed 3 nights in May 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ge Oct 3, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Staff are fantastic, they are super sweet! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/E6F92E4EC8A33583E91FAD5B0B4AB8ADECE0B6D21633294572288.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8399F8117B236C32ACFB74E088D2891076F33EE61633294569983.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/364323B3F0DA506BF2084E3B9322B1703A94FAD41633294568795.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Ge Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Sep 19, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Nice rooms, nice view, friendly staff.

Nous avons séjourné en couple, en demi pension, dans une villa Ambassador avec piscine privée. Très bon accueil de la part d'Athina à la réception. Personne très dynamique qui conseille parfaitement sur les découvertes à ne pas manquer pour visiter l'ile. Athina ne parle malheureusement pas le Français mais nous avons réussi à nous comprendre malgré notre Anglais approximatif. Au niveau de la restauration, les petits déjeuners sont pris sous la forme d'un buffet relativement bon et varié. Le repas du soir est pris au restaurant avec un service à la carte. Tout ce que nous avons mangé était très bon et très copieux. Ilias, le serveur est très sympathique et conseille parfaitement sur les plats et les boissons locales. Comme pour Athina, Ilias ne parle malheureusement pas Français mais très bien Anglais. Dans l'ensemble, tout le personnel de l'Hôtel que nous avons rencontré était très sympathique. L'hôtel dispose d'une très belle vue sur Malia et la mer. Il est situé sur les hauteurs de la ville à 3 minutes en voiture où se trouve des petits supermarchés, magasins, bars et restaurants. Les villas Ambassador sont plutôt bien avec une grande piscine privée (entre 28 et 30°C) au mois d'août. Le seul petit bémol serait peut être le manque d'intimité car lorsque le voisin est sur son balcon à l'étage, il plonge (du regard) directement sur votre piscine. Nous avons néanmoins passé un excellent séjour dans cet hôtel situé à 30 minutes de l'aéroport. Nous y reviendrons certainement. ##### Christelle Stayed 8 nights in Aug 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### franck Sep 3, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Personnel a l ecoute, etablissement tres propre ##### franck Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Aug 5, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Alt var meget tilfredsstillende, dog med undtagelse af servicen ved morgenmaden. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Jun 27, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Parfait en semaine Très bon séjour.
