Delicious food Beautiful grounds with pools and beach. We were offered an upgrade for the room for a small fee . The Room was bigger and better so was worth the upgrade.

We stayed in Junior Suite Sea Front - great newly renovated deluxe room almost on the beach. Everything was perfect: the location, the service, the breakfast, the SPA , the lunch in Italian Restaurant. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Great relaxing holiday.

I loved the location and staff and loved that breakfast and dinner were included. for a young solo traveler i would not recommend it, since it is a resort but you are really close to other great beaches and bars.

Beautifully designed hotel and rooms. We had family room with 2 rooms and 2 bathrooms just a few steps from the beach and pool. Cleaning ladies coming twice a day. Hotel garden is amazing with lots of natural shade to lounge in. Pools are beautiful and clean, Water temperature in pools is great (warm enough for easy entry) buffet breakfast and dinner is varied and very tasty. Pizza in Italian restaurant is very good. Property is clean and staff is kind and friendly. Beach is picturesque and sandy, with beautiful sunset, sea is warm in July but was often rough with big waves so maybe not the best option for small children and beginners swimmers, some big stones in the sea too. Hotel is not very big, for me ideal size, doesn’t seem crowded, it’s quiet and comfortable. Overall a very good hotel which could be excellent with some small improvements.

“stunning hotel and good value for money”
- • Leisure trip
- • Family with young children
- • Stayed 6 nights
the pillows were hard making it difficult to sleep comfortably (would bring my own next time) and our aircon went on and off which was annoying at night. the coffee at breakfast really needs to be better, it tasted cheap and awful and definitely ruined the overall picture for me. we booked half board which means buffet food mornings and evenings. luckily you can also eat at the 2 a la carte restaurants (at a discounted rate) which i recommend over the buffet option. next time id book breakfast only and just eat à la carte or in town. the wines and coffee are way overpriced.
the design is stunning, especially for the price category. if you like your hotel to be visually pleasing, this one ticks all the boxes. we enjoyed the beach restaurant (incredible pizza!), the kids club and the lovely cooking class at mouries.

It is a beautifully decorated hotel in an amazingly nice garden at the sea. Just to walk through the property gives you a great vacations feeling. The staff is very kind, helpful, cheerful. The food is very good as well. My favorite: the Cretan corner :-). We will be definitely back again! Thank you for making our stay so great!

“Nice family friendly resort on the water”

Mealtime was a little hectic, with dozens of people trying to get space in the buffet line. Lots of kids means there’s not a lot of quiet space or time. Nightly entertainment seems like a perk until you want to go to sleep early, and someone is still singing “Take me home, country roads” in a Greek accent at 10 PM.
Has everything you need for a relaxing holiday with the family. Good and plentiful food, friendly staff, and nice facilities.

“Outstanding experience!”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Stayed 12 nights
Of course we tried also a new Italian restaurant. It tries to be fancier with ambitious manager, but except the location and food itself, the impression that the restaurant leaves is rather poor. We try three times, firstly also to celebrate daughter birthday, but we never catch the staff on right leg. Last dinner we finished beside the fish refrigerator, no matter if other better tables were free all the evening. So our suggestion to the young manager would be to learn from the Mauries place. At such a beautiful place it is really not a question to have food to survive, we, as a hotel guests, want to experience a nice dinner time close to the beach, without unsuccessful fight for a better table in the restaurant… But, newer the less, we build up the impression taking the last desert at the Mauries, outstanding and heartfull and unforgettable again.
Outstanding experience! It was our first time taking vacations on Crete and our only expectation was to rest. Thanks to Cretan Malia Park hotel our 12 days were fabulous. Starting with the worm welcome, everything what followed was perfect. The service, the stuff all over the place, the room and room service, the additional activities offered by the hotel, like cooking lessons, vine testing, Cretan dinner,... Very special and outstanding heartfull feeling creates Cretan Restaurant Mouries, the place itself, the perfect Cretan food mainly prepared by hotel main chef and kind and perfect cooking staff, and even more the young and sincere restaurant manager. Knowing and feeling the guests wishes and desires. Outstanding experience!! We would like to kindly congratulate the Management of the hotel to be present practically all over the day on all places. It was our first time that hotel General Manager and the hotel Management serve to hotel guests’ dinner, to show us their respect. Really perfect and worm feeling, that on every step somebody is taking care for you. We would like to highly recommend the hotel and for sure we will do that again. We had a perfect vacations. Thank you!
