The rooms are fitted with air conditioning, a flat-screen TV with cable channels, a fridge, a coffee machine, a bidet, free toiletries and a wardrobe. With a private bathroom fitted with a shower and a hairdryer, some rooms at the inn also boast a city view. We stayed there from the 13th to the 15th of June and I can’t recommend this place enough. Everything about it was perfect. The location is unbeatable - tucked away on a quiet and charming street, yet just steps away from everything you might need: shops, restaurants, bars. The room itself was immaculately clean and incredibly well-equipped with an ironing board, a coffee machine with complimentary Nespresso capsules and a blow dryer. Upon arrival, we found a bottle of cold water waiting in the fridge, along with juice, biscuits, and jam. They had also provided a small bottle of raki with two little shot glasses. Self check-in was incredibly easy. If you’re considering booking, I highly recommend choosing the double room with patio. It comes with its own private entrance, a table and two chairs for relaxing outside, and even a drying rack for wet swimsuits. A special thank you to Maria at reception. I had been looking for a safety pin and she went above and beyond, managing to find me an entire set in two different sizes. The stay was truly exceptional from start to finish.

Situated in Malia, 2.3 km from Central Malia Beach, Mila Malia Suites has a seasonal outdoor swimming pool, parking on-site and rooms with free WiFi access. There is a private entrance at the guest house for the convenience of those who stay. Boasting family rooms, this property also provides guests with a sun terrace. Everything was amazing, we felt really great. Vicky, the owner, is the best host we have ever met - she was always available for useful information and best advice for our needs(and also for best cocktails and bar/restaurant service). The rooms were big, very clean (two really nice ladies are taking care of the rooms each morning) and with a very nice view of the sea. The breakfast had everything we needed: coffee, fruit juice, milk, a variety of eggs, cheeses, salami, vegetables, fruits, pastries and yogurt with many toppings. Malia old town (with very good restaurants) is at a walking distance, just 10 min away down the hill, so this was the perfect stay for a quiet, yet close to action holiday.
