Pros:

Unsere Unterkunft war sehr modern eingerichtet und wir haben uns sofort wohl gefühlt. Die Unterkunft fand sich in unmittelbarer Nähe zum Strand, so dass insgesamt die Lage sehr ruhig war, dennoch sehr zentral und somit alles schnell erreichbar war.

Everything you'd want from a stay in Malia.
Pros:

An exceptional stay from start to finish. The location is honestly the best of both worlds: you're a couple of minutes from Malia centre and a super short walk down to the beach, but you're tucked away from the noise, so you can actually sleep and relax. The apartments are beautiful and really comfortable, and the whole place is spotless: rooms, pool area, everywhere. The pool and gardens were lovely to spend the day around, and breakfast was very nice. The staff were more than we could have asked for: warm, helpful and genuinely welcoming. We came as a group of friends and every one of us would come back without hesitation. Highly recommended.

A truly wonderful stay made even more special by exceptional hospitality, a beautiful hotel, and genuine care from the s
Pros:

Our stay was absolutely amazing, and I genuinely cannot fault the hotel, its beautiful surroundings, or the incredible staff.

From the moment we arrived, Yannis went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Due to a last-minute flight change, we had to check in outside of the usual check-in hours, but Yannis was incredibly accommodating. He welcomed us warmly, helped us take our bags to our room, and made sure everything was in order and that we were comfortable before leaving us to settle in. Nothing was ever too much trouble for him.

The rooms were exceptionally clean, spacious, and comfortable. The hotel itself is in a fantastic location — just around a four-minute walk from the beach and right on the doorstep of some beautiful restaurants. It was the perfect location for our stay.

What really stood out, though, was the genuine care and kindness shown by Yannis. During our holiday, my mum unfortunately fell unwell, and on the Sunday we needed medication when the pharmacies were closed. Yannis went completely out of his way to help us, arranging for the medication to be delivered directly to our hotel room. It made such a difference and helped my mum recover so quickly. We were incredibly grateful for his kindness and thoughtfulness during what could have been a very stressful situation.

I stay in a lot of hotels, and it is very rare to come across someone who genuinely cares about every guest in the way Yannis does. His hospitality felt sincere, personal, and completely above and beyond what you would normally expect.

Even on our final day, when Yannis was not going to be at the hotel, he made sure to wish us safe travels. That small gesture really summed up the level of care he showed us throughout our entire stay.

We had a truly wonderful experience and would happily return. A beautiful hotel, fantastic location, spotless and spacious rooms, and, most importantly, exceptional staff.

Cons:

The only thing I would say is there was only 1 mirror in the room which was in the bathroom. A full length mirror would have been ideal for the girls that like to see their outfits but genuinely this is minor. Overall my only complaint is that I couldn’t stay longer and the hotel is sold out for a majority of next year.

Skøn afslappende ferie i smukke omgivelser.
Pros:

Smukt og stilet hotel beliggende i rolige omgivelser, få minutter fra stranden og en lille gåtur fra det pulserende byliv i Malia. Lille sted, der er drevet af lokal familie, som holder det hele utroligt pænt og rent og yder den bedste service. Meget venlige og hjælpsomme. Altid god plads ved poolen og mulighed for både sol og skygge under de store flotte palmer.

Cons:

Stranden er ret turistet og Malia er præget af de mange natklubber og festglade unge - men det mærker man heldigvis ikke på Ammos.

Overall, our stay was good. The hotel has a great location, a nice pool, and the property itself is pleasant and well ma
Pros:

The accommodation had a good location, close to the beach while also being within easy walking distance of the main street connecting the beach area with the centre of Malia.

Cons:

Unfortunately, the service and attitude of the hotel staff were, to put it mildly, very disappointing! particularly during check-in.
The staff member checking us in asked to see my passport, which I provided without any issue. While he was entering my details, I simply asked out of curiosity why my passport was specifically required rather than another form of identification, given that the hotel is located in a European country and I am an EU citizen.
His reaction was immediately defensive and irritated. Instead of simply explaining the reason, he questioned me as a guest, asking if this was my first time staying at a hotel, and spoke to me in a very condescending manner. This was particularly unnecessary given that he already had my passport in his hands and I was simply asking a genuine question.
During my trip to Crete, I stayed at six different hotels, and I have never experienced staff who were anywhere near as unprofessional or unpleasant as this. Unfortunately, the way we were treated left a very negative first impression of the hotel.
That being said, I understand from other reviews that the owner and regular staff are generally very well regarded, and my understanding is that the person dealing with our check-in was not the owner or one of the regular staff members. Therefore, I hope this was an isolated incident rather than a reflection of the hotel's usual standard of service.

Le meilleur séjour à Malia!
Pros:

Nous avons aimé la chambre ainsi que les installations, la piscine est superbe aussi et toujours propre. Le petit déjeuner n’est pas un petit-déjeuner continentale classique mais cela reste superbe et la proposition est délicieuse.

Cons:

Nous n’avons rien à dire.

Προτιμήστε κάποιο ανακαινισμένο δωμάτιο
Pros:

Η τοποθεσία και η αισθητική της εισόδου και του lounge

Cons:

Η σχέση ποιότητας-τιμής για το δωμάτιο 302 δεν ήταν σωστή. Το συγκεκριμένο δωμάτιο χρειάζεται ανακαίνιση και θα έπρεπε να υπήρχε μια πιο χαμηλή χρέωση ,κατά την άποψη μας. Το μπάνιο και το κλιματιστικό τουλάχιστον χρήζουν ανακαίνισης. Σαφώς και μπορείτε να το κοστολογήσετε όσο θέλετε.

Επιπλέον στο πρωινό δεν υπήρχε κατάλογος στα ελληνικά και όταν ζητήθηκε, το σέρβις απάντησε ότι είναι όλοι στα αγγλικά.

Επιπλέον μια καλύτερη συνεννόηση της ρεσεψιόν θα ήταν θεμιτή καθώς πληρώσαμε την διαμονή στο check in , και κατά το check out μας ζήτησαν εκ νέου να πληρώσουμε.

Rustige, fijne plek om druk malia te ontdekken
Pros:

De locatie, de rust en kleinschaligheid.
De gastvrijheid van yanis, georg en maria en de goede tips van restaurants in Old Malia
Elke ochtend het heerlijke verse keuze ontbijt
De vriendelijke schoonmaaksters die de kamer elke dag weer netjes maakten

Cons:

Wat jammer is dat er handdoekleggers waren die veel later bij het zwembad kwamen en dat dit toegelaten werd.
Te weinig kast ruimte een open kast voor 2 sk appartement
En voor ons te harde bedden (maar dat is wat je gewend bent

Wonderful family stay in Crete!
Pros:

We had a wonderful stay at Ammos Boutique Apartments & Suites.
What stood out the most was the people. Gregory is truly the soul of the hotel: always kind, welcoming and smiling while serving us breakfast every morning. He also gave us some great recommendations on places to visit. Jannis was equally helpful, suggesting excellent restaurants and family-friendly places to enjoy during our stay.
The outdoor area, including the pool, is beautiful: very tastefully designed, relaxing and comfortable. Overall, a lovely place with a very welcoming atmosphere.

Cons:

The hotel has two quite different types of accommodation: a newer, more modern building and an older, more traditional one, where we stayed. Although our apartment was comfortable and spacious, it was not exactly what we had expected based on the photos when booking.
As we were travelling with a baby, we would also have appreciated staying on the ground floor, as carrying the baby stroller up and down the stairs every day was not very convenient.

Amazing hotel - highly recommendable!
Pros:

I can only recommend this place - we had a fantastic stay! Everything is as described and in the photos. Very clean and pretty everywhere. Lovely, comfortable rooms with new furniture and nice, spacious terrace (the new building - we didn't stay in the original rooms). Good size fridge in the room. Beautiful pool area with comfortable sun loungers. The staff are all so welcoming and helpful - great hosts! We had a lot of restaurant recommendations from Yannis, which were all superb! The food and drinks in the pool bar are good quality, too. 2 minutes walk to the beach (nice and clean) where you can rent sun loungers. 1 minute walk to the nearest shop, and 5 minutes walk to the main street. I would definitely recommend walking to old town Malia (20 minutes walk) - very pretty and the best restaurants! Despite the hotel being so close to the main street, it was perfectly quiet in the evening. Thanks for a wonderful holiday - we hope to return!

Cons:

Only a few minor comments. It would have been nice with a stock-up of toiletries - but no problem to get it when we asked for it. A few more hooks for towels in the room would be practical.
