CRETAN MALIA PARK, A MEMBER OF DESIGN HOTELS
Proudly local and fully entrenched in Greek identity, Cretan Malia Park is a charming hideaway in every sense. Enveloped by an idyllic locale that is rooted in ancient history, the sprawling property is a paragon of modern hospitality and welcomes families and couples alike. Cretan Malia Park brings boutique-style appeal to the big stage, with a contemporary 2020 redesign by Vana Pernari Architecture Studio, which emphasizes the buildings’ modernist structures and lush natural gardens. Located on the largest and most populous of the Greek islands, the resort has committed itself to environmental conservation – a philosophy that has been a part of the hotel’s DNA since the beginning. From its boundless slow-paced aura, carefully aligned with the tempo of the island, to its authentic Cretan food and beverage concept, Cretan Malia Park is a microcosm of the island on which it resides – an accurate and detailed snapshot of beautiful Crete, where visitors are offered ample opportunity to explore, experience and live.
