Other facilities include the Bostani-organic kitchen garden where pop-up garden dinners are hosted every week, and 4 bars: The Beach Shack, The Crush – a coffee & sweets corner, the Melissi Bar and the new Kafenio that serves traditional Greek coffee and Cretan mezze.

The beachfront is extensive and runs for about 5 km, between Stalida and Malia. The centre of the lively Malia lies within 2.5 km from Cretan Malia Park, while Heraklion International Airport is at a distance of 34 km.

Proudly local, enveloped by an idyllic locale and the bearer of a finely crafted Greek identity, Phaea Cretan Malia presents a hideaway in every sense where mindfulness and design intertwine seamlessly, welcoming families and couples alike.

From its boundless slow-paced aura, carefully aligned with the tempo of the island, to an authentically Cretan gastronomic experience, Phaea Cretan Malia is a microcosm of the island on which is resides — an accurate and detailed snapshot of Crete, where guests are offered ample opportunity to explore, experience and live.
