Overview

Phaea Cretan Malia is a design-led resort set on a beautiful beach and amid blooming botanical gardens. Indulge in traditional native recipes and warm service across all four restaurants or embrace the local culture with a selection of daytime activities celebrating all things Cretan – from garden tours to cooking classes and local wine tasting. Upgrade to the all-inclusive package to enjoy a delicious dine-around experience, or stay in a bungalow for added comfort and convenience.

Set among a lush greenery, Phaea Cretan Malia offers you a perfect mix of relaxation and activities to make your holiday everything you could want. Set on the northern coast of Crete, you’ll find the town centre of Malia just over a mile away. Here you’ll find a plethora of bustling restaurants and lively bars as well as a popular stretch of golden beach. Heraklion Airport is 21 miles to the west.

Rooms, bungalows and suites are tastefully decorated in calming tones. Wooden furnishings, earthy white walls and artistic feature tiles give a rustic bohemian feel while floor to ceiling windows bathe the rooms in natural light. Each room comes with a Cretan welcome amenity, Indigenous bath amenities and a smart TV. You'll find some spaces decorated with fabulously original wall art, too. Upgrade to a Bungalow to be situated within the hotel’s gardens or opt for a Junior Suite for an expanded living space – perfect for families and longer stays.

Other facilities

Drift between two outdoor pools or venture down to the hotel’s private stretch of sand. When you’re ready to relax, slip away to the Cute Spa, nestled among the lush gardens of the hotel. Pamper yourself with a soothing treatment here or get your fitness fix in the gym. For a peaceful pause, enjoy a yoga session on the pavilion or join one of the hotel’s scenic garden tours.

Otherwise, get competitive with table tennis or swing your way through 18 holes, with preferential green fees at the nearby Crete Golf Club. You can also enjoy a game on the tennis and basketball courts or explore on two wheels with breezy bike rentals. The fun doesn’t stop in the evenings either, with live DJ sets and entertainment lighting up the nights.

Families are well catered for, too, with the Little Explorers Kids Club (for ages three to 12) and The Place teen club. You’ll also find a dedicated paddling pool and playground await, plus plenty of kid-friendly activities.

There’s also an excellent line up of cultural programmes running seasonally. Learn a new skill with a Cretan cooking class or indulge in local tastes with wine tasting and olive oil tasting sessions. Catch a grape stomping even, garden tours and much more.

Dining information

Mediterraneo Restaurant is open for buffet style breakfasts and dinners a la carte – the menu shining with authentic Cretan flavours. From May to October, Almyra plates up tasty a la carte dishes by the sea on the open-air terrace (subject to weather conditions). Meanwhile, Mouries bring out Cretan family favourites in a laid-back atmosphere.

Tucked away in the lush gardens of this hotel, Kafenion is another family-friendly affair. This charmingly rustic eatery wows with a simple yet sophisticated coffee menu, light Cretan meze dishes and delectable desserts. Down on the beachfront, savour the fresh taste of summer at The Beach Shack or grab a cool ice cream at Crush.

While the suns shining, grab international drinks and snacks at Mezze or lounge here in the evenings with a glass of wine. Nestled in the centre of the resort, Melissi Bar also offers a cosy spot for a sunset tipple. Once a week, specialist dinners – hosted by Chef Lefteris Iliadis – are held at Bostani with a menu inspired by Crete’s local flavours and timeless classics, using the freshest of ingredients straight from the hotel’s very own vegetable garden.
