Phāea Cretan Malia, a Member of Design Hotels
MALIA, CRETE, GREECE
Our take
Minimalist architecture rooted in Cretan materiality, a kitchen that takes the Mediterranean seriously, and enough quiet to actually hear yourself think — Phāea is built for the design-literate traveler who considers a well-proportioned room a destination in itself. Malia's archaeological layer is right there if you want context beyond the pool. Skip it entirely if your holiday requires a packed activity programme or a lobby bar humming until 2am. This place doesn't perform. It simply exists, beautifully.
Notable Features
- Minimalist architecture using local Cretan materials
- Organic Mediterranean dining rooted in regional produce
- Walking distance to the Malia Minoan Palace archaeological site
💡 Insider Tip
"Ground floor rooms open directly onto the gardens — claim one, and the dawn hours before the heat sets in are entirely yours."
