    Lovely oasis in Crete - caring, family run hotel, restaurant and bar

    As others have mentioned, the rooms, mostly the bathrooms, could use a bit of updating.

    We booked this hotel from the airport (8:30pm) and were pleasantly surprised to drive down this narrow lane to an oasis, with beautifully lit pool and palm trees. Even though the hotel is not on the water, their restaurant and bar, Nisos, is! Upon arrival, one of the daughters walked us to the restaurant. Stunning! We loved this family run business, so decided to stay an additional night. The attention and service we received from the two daughters from the hotel and the two servers from the restaurant was exemplary. The food and drinks were amazing and delicious.

    Nothing it was perfect

    My husband and I travelled to Crete for the first time and stayed at Drossia Palms and let me say this property FAR exceeded our expectations. I wish I could give it 15 stars. We stayed in the suite with a hot tub on our deck and our room was absolutely beautiful! This business is family owned and they were all so welcoming and accommodating! I cannot recommend this property enough

    - We stayed in a studio which was a bit outdated (specially the shower), the other rooms across the hall were renovated, so would recommend those - Not sure what the relation with the beach bar is, as the sunbeds are still paid and they are literally packed until the edge of the water

    - Quiet location, while being right next to the bar street - 3min by foot to the sea - Staff was friendly - Nice pool, lobby and bar - Great breakfast with lots of choices - Always had sunbeds available at the pool - Snacks at the poolbar were very good and reasonably priced (specially the cheesy garlic pizza) - Highly recommend the Red Lion restaurant across the street for dinner, food was amazing - Smart tv in the room could read movies from a USB and stream from a phone

    The location's a bit hidden away along Malia's strip, but I must admit that once you catch sight of the pool and the palm trees, it's as if you've been transported to a rather posh resort. Our stay was rather enjoyable, although I do have a bit of a complaint about the shower – it was quite old, and the entire bathroom had a rather outdated feel to it. The shower had a tendency to leak onto the rest of the bathroom floor due to a slight misalignment in the glass door. Consequently, we found ourselves using an entire stack of towels to mop up the water. To be fair, we didn't really raise the issue with the hotel; we simply put up with it. The breakfast was delightful, and those poolside cocktails were rather good as well. It would have been rather splendid if the hotel had its own restaurant for evening meals. Lunch at the hotel was good though. My suggestion would be to stick to the Cretan food and avoid straying too far afield. All things considered, I do wish I had more time to unwind by the pool – it was truly marvelous.

    Unfortunately the air conditioning wasn’t great in our room (might have been better in other rooms) We had to grab a mini fan from the supermarket so we could sleep in the heat. The poolside food at the hotel was okay but we preferred the food at their beach club or the restaurants in the old town.

    Gorgeous hotel. Beautifully decorated with some great photo taking spots! The hotel itself is nicely tucked away behind the quieter end of Malia strip. It’s in good walking distance of restaurants, bars and the old town. Pool is nice. Sun loungers are comfy. The rooms are fairly spacious. Bed was comfy. Handy to have a kitchenette. Balcony was a good size We went at the start of the season and it was quite quiet considering close proximity to the strip. Wasn’t disturbed at night by the noise and was pleasantly surprised by this. Staff were extremely helpful and recommended car hire places, restaurants and sunrise watching spots. The hotel also has a private beach which is across the road (approx 3 min walk). Delicious food and nice coffee! (Worth noting that you do pay a fee for your bed for the day)

    Our only problem was that the bathroom felt a little dirty, the shower tap was moldy.

    The pool and restaurant area were beautiful. The property is also located centrally, so very close to all the restaurants, supermarkets, and clubs. However, the build made it almost secluded which allowed you to sit by the pool without random people on the streets looking in, which was great.
