Atlantica Ocean Beach Resort ★★★★

"The location is very remote and need to walk a minimum 10 minutes before finding 2 small shops. 10 minute bus ride into plantarias where a lot more shops available. The staff are all very friendly and polite. The staff work hard, the lifeguards take their job seriously and do an amazing job. The rooms are tiny, double bed and a small single. No sofa / chair to sit on while getting ready. The balcony is approx 1m squared and again very small. The food I thought was great. Some stuff the same everyday but majority rotated and cannot complain about the service. My son is was poorly and needed to see a dr and the hotel was very informative and the Jet2 rep (Veronica) helped us by calling ahead and checking the price. Cannot really fault any of the holiday that the resort could control."

Secret Garden Hotel ★★★

"A delightful place situated at the quiter end of town. Ideal for visiting this area of the island but also very comfortable for relaxing in. Family run with friendly customer service, together with very good attention to detail. The menu for 2023 was not extensive (plans for expansion in 2024) but all options were very well cooked and nicely presented. The garden/pool area is very pretty and the sun beds/pool are comfortable. The bar and restaurant are al fresco but with enough cover to keep the high season sun off. The management team take much pride in their business and are attentive to their customers needs. We visited over a 3 week period and every day was a pleasure. Car parking is available but the bus stop to/from Chania is just a few metres from the entrance."

Maleme Mare ★★★★

"Just returned from a 2 week holiday here & what a fabulous time we had. Was greeted on arrival (early hours of the morning) with food & drinks served which we thought was such a nice touch. Food was good & the chefs were great, always greeted you & always smiling. Very clean hotel with the friendliest staff, they couldn’t do enough for you, special mention to Aris who is so friendly with all guests & had such good banter with him, we loved seeing him around! Also Sasha behind the bar was so friendly & always smiling. Eleanor (receptionist) she is so funny, made us laugh every day! Rooms are spacious & very clean, loved that the shower & toilet were separates. We nearly changed our hotel due to reading reviews saying it was quiet but so glad we didn’t. The bus is approx 40 minutes to Chania & only 2.50 euros per adult. Would highly recommend this hotel."

Castro Beach Hotel ★★★★

"If you are looking for relaxation, rejuvenation, a clean and quiet environment and above all very, very kind people, this is the ideal place. They treated us like family, and we can't wait to go back next summer."

Ledra Maleme Hotel ★★★

"Yet another fantastic 2 weeks at Ledra. Been before and was just as good as last time. Quiet family run hotel/ self -catering beautiful pool and eating/drinking areas, plenty of sunbeds (non of which were reserved with towels). Rooms cleaned daily, fresh towels etc. Will definitely returning another time soon"

Sunny Suites ★★★

"Room 305 excellent view of of pool/ sea, aircon in living area and sleeping area same with tv's all in with price no underhand extra costs when you get there. Safe also at no extra cost, family run with all the normal greek hospitality, housekeeping exelent with plenty of sheet and towels changes, big balcony, everything you need in kitchen area. Good bus service a short walk from sunny Suites, car hire also a short walk away, 10 minute walk to sea. All in all great value for money. "

Ortansia House Near the Sea ★★★★

Oliva Beach Hotel ★★★★

"Perfect place to stay in Maleme! The hotel is very close to the beach and the cozy Maleme restaurants. The hotel itself is newly updated with great care and good style. The room had everything we needed and it was very well cleaned and maintained, very quiet and most importantly perfectly stylish as well as functioning. Air conditioning worked perfectly. The hotel owner is very friendly and helpful and I would 100% visit this hotel again."
