I read the reviews before coming out to Malia, so when i came out here i already had preconceptions but they all changed when i got to the Philoxena Hotel. It can't be the same receptionist that i read about because she was lovely and friendly. It's a 2 star hotel so you get what you pay for but overall... more

I would definately not stay here again. The hotel itself is not bad, the room seemed really nice at first, and beautiful swimming pool. I was travelling with a friend, we were doing the party island hopping thing, and had alreaddy been to Mykonos, Ios and Santorini, having the best time ever, so we were expecting this would be a... more

I have read all of the reviews, which prompted me to quickly write a review as there have been changes here from other reviews. THERE IS A NEW RECEPTIONIST and she is lovely, no nonsence woman but that it needed in a hotel here. The hotel is situated 2 mins from the main strip if you are into that, and... more

This out of alll my holidays was by far my favourite hotel, the people who have previously wrote about the deposit, correct me if i'm wrong but it is the travel agents who should be telling you this, and if you book directly through the hotel they don't make you pay. I have stayed here twice and the receptionist Fedra,... more

Great place to stay in, Although it was a year ago from writing this things may have changed, But looking at reviews now and thought I would write one! We first got there and it was a bit of hassle, Took an hour or two for the receptionist to sort out or rooms as another bunch of girls arrived at... more

The hotel is excellent for what it is, a resort hotel, the staff are brilliant and cannot be praised enough! The pool is pretty and the breakfast is really tasty!! Plus you are just down the road from the... more

Arrived in the middle of the night, again a 50 euro deposit to pay on arrival, but the receptionist was lovely and saw we were a nice couple and said quietly to come back tommorow and she would give it back. all the staff were helpful and friendly. The room was average, quiet clean, but twin beds which is crap... more

MALIA = awesome! Philoxenia.. on arrival looks gorgeous, and also a free shot on arrival always helps lol .. the room we were in was very nice, all modern.. but only problem was our balcony, was basically on the basement floor and our balcony was like a bath tub, also when the music came on at 9 in the mornin,... more

My husband & I were recommended to go to this place. We told our travel agent that we had been to the Maldives and on 3 cruises. we wanted a quiet beach holiday with pretty surroundings................oh my goodness why were we sent to Malia?? If you like to be kept awake until around 5am, want to step over the vomit... more
