Excellent location! A quick walk to the old town, but far enough for it to be quiet. Good breakfast and very thoughtful and welcoming staff!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Sunshine Boutique Hotel by Estia in Malia! The rooms were spacious, very clean, and well maintained, with fresh towels provided daily and thorough housekeeping every day. The location of the hotel couldn’t have been better – it’s set in a peaceful spot, yet within just a few minutes you’re right on the strip or at the beach. Besides there’s a lovely little shop and a nice restaurant just a stone’s throw away from the hotel. Breakfast was freshly prepared every morning, offering a great variety of breads, eggs, sweet treats, and spreads. The pool area was fantastic as well, with plenty of sunbeds available – no stress about reserving them with towels. The pool bar had a wide selection of drinks and snacks, making it perfect for a relaxing day by the water. What really made our stay outstanding was the staff. Every single person we met was cheerful, kind, genuinely interested, and always willing to help. We never lacked anything during our stay. A very special thank you goes to Amanda and Marios, who went above and beyond to help us arrange our return transfer to the airport – their thoughtfulness really made a difference. Having stayed in Malia several times before, we can confidently say that this is by far our favorite hotel. We can’t wait to come back!

“Great stay in a beautiful little hotel”
Location is great, Staff is super friendly and helpful, hotel looks even prettier than on the pictures. Free use of umbrellas for the beach. Breakfast was really good and had a lot of options from yoghurt with topping, to bread with cheese, ham, jam etc. eggs, olives and feta cheese, juices, tea and coffee. Really good! And I like that the staff is allowed to have breakfast at the end as well, that shows a good working environment to make your staff feel appreciated :)

“We had a great stay! The hotel, staff and location were perfect.”
Our stay was exceptional. We would like to give special thanks to Danai, Amanda, Zoe and Maria. Danai gave us a free upgrade upon checking in due to availability, as well as early check in - which was so lovely and kind. The breakfast was always great, organised and clean thanks to Amanda. The pool area was also clean and relaxing. We were never troubled for a sun lounger or bean bag lounger. Zoe and Amanda were so attentive by the pool bar. They truly work very hard. We looked forward to their coffee's and smoothies everyday! Danai and the other young man (whose name we unfortunately did not catch) at reception were so helpful, giving us advice on excursions etc. All staff greet you everyday which was such a nice touch. There is a staff member keeping security at night (whose name we also did not catch - He was so kind). The door is locked at night for safety, and guests are given a key to use for when it is locked. There are books and parasols for the beach which you can borrow. The room was modern and cleaned by Maria daily. We had no issues during our stay.

We really enjoyed the beautifully designed place, inside the rooms and also in the common space around the pool, reception, etc. Also all the staff people are very nice and helpful. The owner, Danai, has always a good advice concerning where to go for a trip, dinner, etc, or concerning renting a car. And - excellent breafast with plenty of different choices and greek food aswell.

Everything was perfect 👌 We spent the last week of April in Crete, we were in an other hotel the first day but we didn't like and we moved to this hotel. We were able to stay here even they were still closed because they open the summer season the 1st of May, so they were very kind with us and we had the hotel only for us. The receptionist is very nice and friendly, we forgot the keys and she came very late to open the hotel for us. The other staff is also nice. All very very clean and beautiful. The breakfast is good and has everything. We enjoyed! Thank you Team. Diana&Kostas
