Phāea Cretan Malia, a Member of Design Hotels - Malia
The old fisherman on Naxos winked at me, pointing to a small white house by the harbor. Here, in the heart of the archipelago, time slows down between the blue sky and the sapphire sea. Every island tells a different story: from the caves of Milos to the lively tavernas of Paros. Our accommodations let you become part of this tale. Smell the roasted octopus and sea salt as you wake up in a room with a view of the infinite horizon. Do not wait for a sign. An Aegean adventure is waiting for you.
