Cretan Malia Park

If you want to experience exquisite luxury while still feeling the authentic Cretan vibe, Phaea Cretan Malia Park is the perfect place. We loved it so much that we went back three times. The facilities are outstanding – modern yet blending perfectly with the lush greenery, pools, shaded areas, and the sea just a few steps away. Everything feels calm, well thought-out, and inviting. But the real star of the show is the food: fresh, flavorful, and with an authentic Cretan touch that makes every meal unforgettable. From breakfast to dinner, it’s a true culinary journey. This hotel manages to combine comfort, authenticity, and luxury in a way that feels effortless. Highly recommended!

We’ve been coming to Phaea Cretan Malia Park for three years in a row and absolutely love it! Very family-friendly, with kind staff, delicious food, a beautiful beach, and amazing pools. We’ll definitely return again!

I've never been to a resort quite as incredible as Phaea Cretan Malia. It is truly the most immersive experience with lots of activities, restaurants on property, variety of spots to tan and relax and the most Greek culture from the staff. We stayed in a balcony room overlooking the ocean and the waves crashing onto the shore were a sound I crave daily. Waking up and having coffee out there was the best way to start the day. We had a cooking class at Mouries and it was truly a core memory. They made us feel like their family and the food was so authentic we ended up eating breakfast, lunch and dinner there almost every day. The entire resort was extremely clean, room service was exceptional and we loved walking around it. Lastly, I loved the fact that this is an all inclusive resort for families. It was packed with kiddos as well as couples in their honeymoon making this the perfect place to visit as your family grows. It's close to downtown Malia which is known for its partying scene as well if you are a group of younger people looking for the perfect place to spend your holiday. Can't wait to visit in again!

We traveled here with our girls in August. This was an incredible experience. The hotel is beautifully designed and maintained. There were several options to choose from with several pools and ocean side chairs. It was a treat to be able to go into the ocean with a lifeguard on duty. The food was excellent and the staff was very friendly. Would love to come back here again. Highly recommended!

Phāea Cretan Malia offers a refined yet soulful retreat that captures the essence of contemporary Cretan living. The design is effortlessly minimal, earthy, and elegant—framing nature rather than competing with it. From bioclimatic architecture to thoughtfully curated cuisine and locally inspired, every detail feels intentional and rooted in place. The atmosphere is relaxed, sensory, and deeply connected to the land, making it an ideal haven for travelers seeking both style and meaning.
