Okay stay.
Great breakfast and friendly staff, well maintained shared spaces (gardens are amazing) but not a Design Hotel. You can see that the place have been remodelled with cheapish furniture, a lamp was broken in our room, side table was all scratched, no bathrobes, no wine glasses in the room. The balcony rail guard are cheap treillis so if you sit you feel like you're in prison. It's also a very family oriented place. Nothing bad with it but lot of toddlers all around.

Great stay in Melia again
Nice hotel with all facilities. Breakfast and dinner have very big selection in the buffet. Restaurant is above average. Rooms are small and starting to show wear.

The Cretan Malia Park has lovely grounds and communal areas and we found all of the staff we encountered genuinely friendly and helpful. We were not prepared for the large number of families with children under 5 the point where it must be marketed specifically to these groups in some countries. People looking for a quiet relaxing break should avoid this hotel for this reason as there is no respite from toddlers anywhere in the resort which is akin to a huge creche. We were half board and this only included a buffet option. There were other restaurants available but these cost extra. In our opinion, sitting in a noisy cafeteria-like environment surrounded by tables of dirty plates and crockery, with trolleys of said dirty crockery trundling past you on a regular basis is not something we would expect from a hotel presenting itself as 5 star and we would not have booked this hotel if we had realised this. Room descriptions are very misleading as having carefully selected what we thought was a ground floor room with a garden view, we were "upgraded" to a partial sea view room in another "bungalow" only to find this was a first floor room with a prolific smoker below us which prevented us from sitting on our balcony for all of our stay. All of the rooms are described as "bungalows" which implies ground floor rooms but most of the accommodation blocks are at least 2 stories high. Overall we had a disappointing experience and would not return.

Had a fantastic holiday at the Cretan Malia Park hotel. They go above and beyond to make sure you have a comfortable stay. Very friendly and approachable staff. If I had to make one small criticism is that it would be great if there was more English TV channels, especially for young children, but that wasn't dealbreaker.
