We spent an excellent week at High Beach Resort de Malia. The room was perfect, the beach very pleasant and close (with the added benefit of reserved sunbeds for our room), the buffets were generous and varied throughout the week, the facilities efficient, and the entertainment present but not intrusive. The location also made it easy to visit Heraklion, the Minoan sites of Knossos and Malia, or the old town of Malia. Most importantly, the hotel staff embodied Greek hospitality: everyone was very pleasant and available, from reception to restaurants, bars, housekeeping, spa, etc. Special mention to Didi, who runs the spa, and to Théophilos at the restaurant, for their extreme kindness, as well as to the various buffet and bar staff. The place was well‑crowded. The beach is perfectly calm in the morning, but the neighboring establishments get a bit louder in the afternoon (though that is not the fault of High Beach Resort).
