The view, the charm, the comfort, the breakfast. The authenticity of the location was great.

Justin Belgium

The Place is located in the beautiful Cretan mountains. It was very quiet and the weather was great. The little village is lovely and very authentic. The apartment was very big and comfortable and had two large terraces with most beautiful view. Nikos, the owner, is the perfect host.

Hilda Israel

The food was amazing. You should also try the homemade wine from niko the host. Rooms are comfortable and quiet.

Mark Germany

The view from the room and terrace is spectacular. The village is an authentic little Cretan mountain village, though there is not much going on here (another mountain village nearby has a couple of restaurants). The area is very nice for walks. The sea is only a short drive and the sea-side village and beach are very nice.

Charly France

Beautiful views and great food. Very quiet location in a tiny village.

Daniel Canada

The place is peaceful, ideal for those who love nature and an authentic Cretan experience. The hosts are friendly and food was great.

Annabel Malta

What was a bit of an "accidental" booking became one of the highlights of our stay on Crete. Mala Villa is a small hotel and tavern at the entrance of Malles, a small mountain village a bit off the beaten track. The staff very friendly, the room wonderful, with a kitchen, large comfortable bed, nice view from the balcony, and even a jacuzzi bath. Breakfast was great, served in the tavern, with a local flavour.

The location is great - within the Cretan mountains. Very quiet, great view, great spacious room and delicious breakfast! A place to relax and walk to see amazing views. Very cool and nice people!

Catalina Romania

The staff was amazing, friendly, and helpful. The food was very good. The restaurant terrace has a nice view and ambiance. The gorge nearby was an awesome spot to visit.

Neighborhood info

Mala Villa is situated in Malles in the prefecture of Lasithi which used to be the largest village of Ierapetra upon the Venetian domination. A remarkable site of the village is the church of the Virgin Mary built in 1431. Between Malles and Christos, 2 km to the west, used to be the ancient city of Malla, that was independent and autonomous with its own currency on which on one side was depicted the image of Zeus’s head and on the other an eagle and the word “ΜΑΛ” (MAL). In the region were found vases and other objects of the Roman era. Today Malles is one of the most graphic mountainous villages ( 600 m. height ), on the slopes of Diktis, in the middle of the thick forest region of Selakano , full of pine trees and oaks where nature created paths full of adventure. A region with a revitalizing climate which according to the traditional myths is full of positive energy. The nearest beach is located in Myrtos just 14 minutes from Malles. Myrtos is a graphic coastal village well known for its splendid sandy beach; overgrow with banana and orange trees, built in the banks of the river Cryos.
