Top Malia Hotel Reviews

Bella Beach - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"We are having a wonderful stay at Bella Beach Hotel. From the moment we arrived, the staff have been friendly, welcoming and very helpful. We had a small issue with our original room, and the team listened to our concerns. They kindly upgraded us to a room with a much better sea view and even helped move all of our luggage, which we really appreciated as we are travelling with a baby and a toddler. The food has been very good, with plenty of choice at every meal, and the hotel is clean, well maintained and in a great location right by the beach. A big thank you to the reception and all the staff for their excellent customer service. They made us feel valued and helped make our holiday even more enjoyable. We would happily recommend Bella Beach Hotel and would love to return in the future."

GDM Megaron Historical Monument Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was perfectly located for my needs...exploring the city as well as visiting the museums!! Important to me was the closeness to the port - as I took a couple ferry/catamaran experiences. And, I loved the Wine Bar on the top floor...great views and a nice selection of food/wine. The concierges were very helpful and pleasant the work with."

Alexander Beach Hotel & Village Resort

8/10 Good

"The hotel is nice and clean with some good restaurants and bars. The Lemongrass Asian restaurant is especially good for sushi. The staff are friendly. During our stay the majority of guests were either young families with small children or couples aged 60+ so there wasn’t much of an atmosphere. The spa is good, however the staff had a very “hard sell” approach when trying to get you to book treatments, which we felt slightly off putting. They also didn’t have a price list and seemed to make them up on the spot. The resort the hotel is situated in has a lot on offer though, and the beaches are great."
