An Uplifting Journey Of History & Tradition

Located on the edge of Crete’s north east coastal town of Malia, Phaea Cretan Malia is ideally situated for the island’s most picturesque charms. A beachside location buttressed by rugged mountains, the locale presents a well-placed base camp from which to explore the island — or to simply bask in the beauty of this corner of Crete.

Surrounded by nature, the landscape is defined by the clear blue waters of the Aegean Sea, rolling pastoral hills and expansive stretches of olive trees, which all combine to form an image of Greek fantasy come to life. The birthplace of the Minoans and the father of both gods and men, Zeus, Crete’s present-day façade is inextricably entrenched in its storied history; a synergy evidenced routinely across Malia and beyond.

A PLACE OF IMMERSIVE BEAUTY

Crete is more than just another Greek island, but a substantial land in its own right.

Its radiance is created by the supreme extremes of the nature: the sharp rugged mountains meeting openly with clear seas, but also its deep connection with the history. The birthplace of the first European civilization – the Minoans – and the legendary Olympian Zeus, all offer fascinating evidence of Crete’s historic power and influence. Exploring a small village, hike on secret path or swim in an abandoned beach are truly authentic & unforgettable experiences. Crete is the ideal place for an uplifting journey of pure bliss, serenity, and reconnection with pristine nature.
