HOTEL DESCRIPTION
Phāea Cretan Malia is a design-led resort on the northern coast of Crete, near the village of Malia. Low-rise buildings sit among lush gardens and open-air pools, with a relaxed bohemian feel that runs throughout. The interiors are minimal and earthy, using warm tones and natural textures to create a calm, inviting atmosphere. The resort offers a mix of Mediterranean and Italian-inspired dining, a boutique spa, morning yoga and wellness spaces. With its focus on sustainability, family-friendly experiences and a strong connection to the local culture, Phāea Cretan Malia is a thoughtful and stylish base for exploring the island or simply slowing down by the sea.
A modern Cretan retreat where striking design meets slow living.
