“Family Holiday at Phāea Cretan Malia”
We had a great holiday at this hotel. The rooms, facilities, food, and service were excellent and we would like to come back. We rarely had a problem with finding a lounger. At times the hotel pool was dominated by children, at these times we used the private beach instead. Each restaurant clos… more

“Great Experience & Wonderful Vacations”
We had a great family vacation at Phaea. We've stayed at two garden bungalow suites in the all inclusive regime (which I strongly recommend). Positives: + Super friendly and welcoming staff + Not too big and not too small - it never felt crowded + Three high-quality restaurants à lá carte: Almyra (… more

“Amazing family holiday”
The flora was wonderful and lush. The room spacious. Great restaurant choices. Staff sometimes not too friendly (with a few being very kind and professional). The beach could ve been cleaned better and more often.

“Beautiful Design and Great Food, but with a Potential Yet to Be Fully Realised”
I recently stayed at the Phaea Malia Crete Hotel and had a mixed experience. The highlights were undoubtedly the food and the room design. The culinary offering was consistently very good, with a varied selection and high-quality ingredients, especially at Almyra restaurant. The room was beautifull… more

Key features of the moderation of reviews
There is an automatic system that detects offensive language, in which case the review will not be published. If an owner reports one of the reviews, the review will be re-evaluated and, if it fails to comply with our content standards, it will be taken down.
Our criteria for collecting guest reviews
After getting home from the trip booked with us, the customer will receive an email asking them to review different aspects of each of the services booked. The system only allows the booking holder to complete this review and only once.
When will my review appear on the website?
Reviews typically take less than 24 hours to appear on our website. The process may take longer if our team of moderators have to examine the review in more detail.
How long will my review stay on the website?
Once it has been published, your review will automatically appear in the summary of reviews and if it is considered a featured review (based on publication date, length and quality of content), the complete review will also appear. Said review will not appear or will disappear from the system if it contains offensive language or if it is reported.
Can I get a reward for my opinion?
No. Reviews written in exchange for personal rewards such as gifts, services, or money will be taken down.
Can a review be edited?
No, once a review has been written, it cannot be edited. If you want it taking down, you can ask to have it deleted and not republished again.
Will my review appear on other websites or publications?
Once published, all or some of the reviews written by our members may be used on some of our partner sites or in promotional material in general.
If I write a review about a service, can the provider contact me about it?
No, as the personal data of the booking holder writing the review will not be shared with any service providers being reviewed. In the featured reviews shown, only the booking holder's first name will appear, meaning that there's no way that the service provider can contact you.
