Commanding an enviable location in Malia, the Ikaros Beach Luxury Resort & Spa offers a private sandy beach, 4 swimming pools and delicate dishes of Greek and International cuisines.

Malia resort is within walking distance, with many shops, cafes and restaurants. Heraklion International Airport is 33 km away from the hotel. It is a 30-minute drive to Heraklion and Agios Nikolaos. Free shuttle service to Star Beach Water Park is provided.

Everything about the hotel was just perfect! The staff are all very helpful, giving excellent service no matter your needs. The operations manager took time out to personally meet with us to ensure we had everything we needed and that our stay was perfect. We felt this was going above and beyond when it comes to a hotel stay. We booked bed and breakfast. Breakfast choices were vast, all food was of excellent quality and the dining room is immaculate and very welcoming with beautiful views. We also had the pleasure of dining in 2 of the a la carte restaurants. The food in those was outstanding with customer service to match….not to mention the views! Overall, the hotel facilities are amazing. Bedrooms are very well equipped and spacious. We had a beautiful sea view from our bungalow. There are 6 pools to choose from along with a private beach. We visited the spa for massage and facials. Treatments were fab but a little over priced as spa treatments go. We will definitely return to Ikaros village and would highly recommend.

    We got more than we expected for the price. Stuff was very kind and friendly and always ready to help. We were traveling through the night so arrived a bit early and they allowed us to check in a bit earlier. If we ever stay in Malia again, it will deffinitelly be Ilios Malia Hotel Resort.

    I recently had the pleasure of staying at Solimar Ruby Hotel, and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The staff were incredibly welcoming and attentive, ensuring every need was met with a smile. My room was immaculate, offering stunning views of the pool and the mountain. Dining at their amazing all inclusive restaurant was a highlight, with a menu that featured both delicious local cuisine and international favorites. I highly recommend the Solimar Ruby Hotel for anyone seeking a luxurious and memorable stay.

    A beautiful apartment with three great bedrooms in a perfect location. Right in the middle of the beautiful old town and everything is within walking distance. The balcony and the outdoor area in front of the apartment invite you to relax and sunbathe. The host was available at any time and was always friendly and helpful. There was even the luxury of having the apartment cleaned regularly. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely come back. The apartment is fully recommended.

    I have been several times to Malia, but this is definitely the best place to stay there. Situated within wonderful gardens at the foot of the hills above Malia with a breathtaking view at the coastline. Extremely neatly and soignée resort, the rooms are a dream. Very familial athmosphere with an amazing friendly team. The heart of this place is the pool and the highlight is the breakfast next to the pool from the well-sorted buffet. Choose this place and you will be excited.

    We loved our stay in Enorme Ammos Beach resort in Malia. Beautiful beachfront location. Amazing staff. We liked the access to the shared mini pool from our room. We loved the extensive breakfast buffet and the themed daily dinner buffet. All the foods were crafted and cooked to perfection! We liked our free morning yoga experience being offered daily.

    Beautiful location. Very nice resort. Lots of places to have privacy. Beautiful landscaping. There is something there for everyone. If you want luxury and exclusivity, you book the private villas directly overloooking the sea. Otherwise, you can stay in very nice comfortable rooms and also enjoy a nice time.
