"We had a fantastic stay at this property! The location was perfect—right in the heart of Old Town, surrounded by great restaurants and cafés, and just a short walk to the main strip. It’s close enough to enjoy all the fun, but far enough to escape the loud music at night, which was a huge plus.
The apartment itself was spotless and had everything we needed. It was spacious, comfortable, and even had direct USB ports for charging our phones—super convenient!
A special shoutout to “Yaya”...

"A great little hotel right on the Malia strip, about half way between the main street and the beach- it was lovely and quiet in early April but probably a bit different through summer.
The owner/ manager who was on reception was extremely welcoming and very friendly, she added a real personal touch.
My room was clean and well decorated with a comfortable bed and beautiful terrace (shame it didnt stop raining long enough to use it!). Decent WiFi provided, aircon available but at extra cost- not...

"We absolutely loved the New Aurora Apartments. The rooms were super spacious, spotlessly clean and fully equipped with everything we could need. The parking was easy as well. We were close to numerous cafes, shops and restaurants so didn’t have to go far for food etc. It was also a short walk to a lovely secluded beach. It is a definitely somewhere we would come back to in a heartbeat. "

"This is hands down the best place to stay in Malia. Close enough to the strip to have everything within walking distance but not so close the noise keeps you awake. Clean, well furnished and spacious you couldn’t ask for more from a studio apartment, I was genuinely surprised to find something to the same spec as the 5 star locations on the beach in the middle of town. Electronic door lock coded to your phone number is an exceptional touch, just be sure to hold the door closed during activation...

"We stayed in Intron luxury villas in June 2023. It was the perfect relaxing break for my husband and myself along with our daughter who had just finished GCSEs. The lovely villa is in a beautiful quiet location and thoughtfully equipped, the private pool was a wonderful luxury and the sandy beach and bay was less than 5 mins walk. The local hotel also has lovely facilities available to those staying at the villas including the private beach with parasols and sunbeams that were always available....

"We had a lovely stay at this apartment, which was cleaned every day, bed made, towels changed etc. Conveniently located by the beach and with a bus stop nearby, only 10 mins to Agios Nikolaos. Quiet sandy beach with a couple of nice restaurants/bars, pedalos, beautiful clear sea. What more could you ask for!!"

"After ascending the stairs from the street we self checked in at a very pretty lobby. Then went to our room. With a rustic aesthetic the room itself was very nice however the balcony really can only seat one comfortably. The room was clean and tidy. The ensuite could have more hooks for hanging clothes. The hotel itself is right by the water the only 2 minutes walk to the lake. Would definitely recommend. "
