At the end of our trip we spent because of its proximity to the airport (Heraklion) a night at the Royal heights resort. After wonderful days at the wonderful East Coast of Crete was the arrival in Malia shocking. Despite the off season travelled on British masses of driving through the Crete-nightlife district. No place to make vacation, but to run away. The Royal heights is a chic, new hotel in the mountains overlooking Malia and the sea. With the current tranquillity it will probably soon be brought to an end, as soon finished highway Traffic almost directly past the … read more

A great, wonderful place to relax and unwind. We felt very comfortable. Nevertheless, we had rented a small apartment, they gave us a large apartment (for the same price of course). A highly recommended hotel for those seeking peace. It is recommended to rent a car. … read more

Very relaxing holiday in a great hotel. An oasis of the silence. But not recommended without a car, as bars and shopping possibilities are very far out of the way. Below the hotel there is a highway extension under construction. After completion is to be prepared by noise. Malia is as ugly as we have ever seen. Service, food and atmosphere at the hotel were good. … read more

I booked this hotel at the last minute (double room). It is located about 30 minutes from the airport Heraklion Malia on the mountain. You have to be able to walk well or a rental car or take a taxi. We are three times to Malia down and back up later walked-uphill, not a bad workouts so quite strenuous but for us to be in pretty good condition as 40jährige ☺ When we arrived, said the super friendly Michalis, the hotel was fully booked, therefor it gives us a two story about 20 villas-this extra charge!

Particularly positive to mention was the room cleaning. Everything was always very clean, all hand towels were replaced every day, whether used or not. The staff was very, very friendly, our every wish was met. For example, we were offered on our departure day, room service breakfast because we had to already leave at six in the morning to the airport. It must be said, however, that the staff also had it quite simple because there were only very nice and considerate tourists at this hotel.The hotel had a pool bar, cafe, bar and a restaurant. We always ate dinner … read more
