Solo travelling woman - I felt safe, the property was clean and had all your basic needs. The staff were amazing, very friendly and helpful and kind. The beach is about 20 mins walk (max) and the old town Malia and the archeological site of the palace of mailia is not far either. I would happily stay here again! Thank you for my stay!

The hotel is located outside of central Malia, which is harder to access by foot if you have luggage. It's walkable and the views are splendid. The air is pure as there are many olive farms surrounding the property. It's also very breazy and It's good value for money. The only annoyance was that they demand a supplement for the aircon of 10 Euros per day, which according to Experia is included in the stay. For the 2 night stay, I wasn't going to protest. Otherwise it's a good budget stay. I would recommend this property for short stays.

The staff is wonderful, management and service at the (breakfast) bar, very helpful and welcoming. We loved the pool, the lobby (incl. pool & ping pong tables) with its bar and its attractive set-up. It took only about a 10-minute leisurely walk to the best restaurants in town (Milos is a must!) and far enough for the hotel to be quiet and relaxing. We'd go back there anytime.

bardzo dobry stosunek jakości do ceny
Bardzo dobry stosunek jakości do ceny! Cena przed sezonem bezkonkurencyjna. Bardzo mili właściciele, cicha okolica - świetna baza wypadowa do zwiedzania wschodniej części Krety. Jedyny minus za brak sprzątania pokoju podczas 5 nocy pobytu i ubogie wyposażenie aneksu kuchennego, jednak duży plus za ogólną czystość całego hotelu

Very friendly owners, with the hotel further back from the beach or the louder night life. Great for either family or solo-travel, with cool rooms, a good pool, green lawns around the property and friendly bar/cafe for the evenings. I would definitely return.

Loved my stay here
I loved staying at the Real Palace, it’s a little bit out of town, 10 mins to old town, 20 mins to the strip and about 30 mins to the beach by foot but it has a lovely pool area and a well stocked bar, with sports on the screens and a lovely atmosphere. The real gems of this hotel though are the owner Manos, who is incredibly kind and helpful and the bar manager Kostas who is literally an absolute legend. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone, whether its a family or a group and especially if travelling alone because the staff will make sure you have a great time.

Almost Perfect*
The hotel is an Oasis in a part of Malia close to the olive groves just outside of town. Staff are wonderfully friendly and pleasant. The rooms are well kept and tidy and the grounds are excellent The swimming pool is also great along with the bar and dinner next to it. I highly recommend a stay here, provided you have transport to explore Crete as well. I read a lot of positive feedback on this place and I would agree with 99% of it. *The only downside was the hidden charge for Air Conditioning per room. Nobody makes any mention of this anywhere until you arrive. It is published in the information notice in the rooms, but I can't help but feel this is a hidden cost, given you get no warning on eBookers about it before you go.

Excellent, but maybe not for everyone
We had a great stay , it's a Beautiful place, rooms are nice and very comfortable, there is a nice bar and a big swimming pool We went there on "low season", hotel was far from being fully booked and everything was nice and peacefull. Based on some information notices on the room, It seems that the hotel is operating with UK tour operators and that could probably turn it easily into a "Teenage Party Hotel" (Malia itself is more a party place than a typical Cretan location, so no suprises) Depending on what you are looking for, it good be challenging ... or not !
