Trevlig personal. Bra poolområde. Lite för små balkonger om man tex vill spela kort. Aircondition funkar bara när man är på rummet.
Appart’hotel à fuire si vous souhaitez dormir ! Nous avons séjourné 3 nuits dans cet appart’hôtel et nous n’avons pas fermé l’œil de la nuit. . À quelques mètres des chambres, se trouve une discothèque, nous entendons la musique dans la chambre comme si nous y étions. Les clients sont irrespectueux, hurlent toute la nuit et mettent la musique dans leur chambre sans que cela ne dérange le personnel. . Notre chambre était à 2 pas de la piscine et du bar, nous n’avions aucune intimité et même la journée, la chambre était bruyante. . À notre arrivée le gérant nous précise que nous devons régler la somme de 8€ par jour pour la climatisation alors que l’annonce précise bien que la climatisation est disponible sans supplément. . Enfin nous avons dû régler une taxe de séjour de 2€ par jour, en liquide et sans aucun reçu ou justificatif.
I can’t say enough good things about the Mirage, spotlessly clean and friendly. Everyone we have met that works here has been lovely. First of all a massive thank you to Niko, you now feel like family. Also a massive thank you to Mike and Zak for making us feel welcome. The cleaning staff too have been amazing. The only downside has been a couple of other guests that I wish we had avoided but everything else has been outstanding. If you are looking for a quiet holiday however, Malia would not be for you but if you have ear plugs it’s a fantastic place. It is definitely a party town but there are a lot of older visitors like us too in September. Crete is a beautiful island. Mochos a gorgeous little village in the mountains is definitely a place to visit for a Cretan night. The beach which is a short walk is beautiful with clear turquoise water. The old town, again a short walk is crammed with lovely family run restaurants. Please visit the Mexican restaurant too where you will find “Spartacus” outside. The food is amazing and staff very friendly. All in all it has been a wonderful holiday and I would put that down to Niko ( you are the best) and everyone else.Thank you all so much.
Es war in der Nähe vom clubs ansonsten war alles gut und gute lage
De studio , zwembad zijn heel netjes. ‘s nachts veel lawaai door de uitgangsplaatsen in de hoofdstraat, ook aan het hotel zelf , in de namiddag, te luide muziek, altijd dezelfde, ondanks mijn vraag om wat meer variatie, en minder luid . » ik moest maar een andere hotel kiezen. »
My partner and I booked a trip to Crete in September, not realising that we had booked a hotel in Malia as we are not big party people we were worried we’d be kept up all night by the bars and clubs on the Main Street. Our stay at Mirage Studios completely surpassed our expectations. We had the perfect romantic week away! The owners and staff were so friendly and attentive, the room was perfect for our needs and cleaned daily. The pool area and bar was magnificent with fresh food everyday and a quiet and chilled atmosphere, we really couldn’t tell we were staying in the party capital of Crete. We loved every second of our week at Mirage Studios and would happily stay here again. Thank you!
Very nice hotel with the most lovely staff
C’était parfait, juste le bruit pour dormir qui rends l’expérience moins agréable. Mais tout le reste était parfait. Les femmes de ménages sont adorables et passent tout les 2 jours Très moderne. Rien a dire
Totally misleading advert. 8 Euro per day for aircon! 20 Euro to use the safe! WiFi extremely slow, mobile phone often slow in the area. Friendliness so so.
We went as a group of 6 girls during early July. We had seen some reviews saying the staff were rude and had issues with playing music etc, however the only thing we did experience was that the staff do barge into your room whenever they want, even when your sleeping. The rooms are clean and the pool is great, we were playing music every day before heading to the strip and had no complaints. It is in the best location if your there for a party holiday as it is directly on the strip but it isn’t loud when your trying to sleep so I would recommend. Another thing is that they are not bothered about bringing people back to the rooms (unlike other hotels around who are really strict). They also have a 24 hour bar/restaurant open which is decent food and good prices. We cannot complain about the rooms as they were really nice and the kitchenette had a fridge which was perfect. However we did have to pay around €40 each for aircon for the week which we were told was going to be free. Overall I would definitely recommend coming here on a boys/girls holiday and I wouldn’t be to disheartened by any of the really negative reviews because we had a great time!
Great time here with the boys nice pool and lovely guy called nico who works there is very funny and kind, pool table is good too. 🔥🔥🔥💯🔥💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯🔥💯🔥💯🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💯👀👀🔥🔥🔥💯🔥💯🔥💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥🔥💯🔥💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯🔥💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🤩🔥🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🔥🤩🔥🤩🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🤩🔥🤩
Niko is the best !!!! He is the best you will never find a man as sexy, as good at his job.🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🏴🔥🏴🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Perfect location, 10 min walk to old town and 10 min walk to the beach. Right on the strip opposite Apollo. Perfect location. Hotel is very clean and modern with everything that you need. Great pool with plenty of sunloungers. Lovely owner and friendly staff. Great bar area with everything you would need.
Me and my friend came for the nice beach and clubbing and found this hotel to be extremely friendly, quiet, and close to everything. We definitely recommend especially considering the price
I stayed at this hotel with a friend for our girls holiday and was sadly disappointed with the treatment we received. Whilst the hotel itself was satisfactory, the staff were incredibly rude and had no respect for our privacy. We sat on our balcony to have pre drinks prior to the club, chatting and playing music although not too loudly, and one of the staff members walked over, grabbed our speaker and walked off with it and then told us to ‘f*ck off’ when we went to get it back. Additionally, we were woken up early every morning by the manager banging aggressively on our door, shouting at us for drinking on the balcony and for chatting to our neighbours. The manager even stole our neighbours balcony chairs as some sort of punishment. The staff were rude the entire time and seemed to be against us having fun, despite the fact that the hotel is placed directly in the middle of the Malia strip. If you are looking for a family holiday, do not stay here as there will be noise coming from the strip until at least 6am. And if you are looking for a fun holiday with a group of friends, be cautious about staying here as they will not allow you to go into your friends rooms or make any small amount of noise past 10pm. Extremely disappointed to say the least, if staff hadn’t been so rude the experience would’ve been a lot better.
Niko is the star of the show. Funniest man I think we’ve ever met. Went as a lads holiday, group of 5. Perfect. Walk out the front doors of hotel and your in the middle of the strip. But yet, no noise can really be heard in hotel if balcony door is closed. Perfect for both partying and quieter holidays. Cleaners always kept the place clean. Staff incredibly friendly (especially niko). Biko would entice you down and introduce you to new arrivals. Perfect wingman. Breakfast is decent quality if you book that it’s open til 10:30. Pool brilliant. Not massive but clean and deep enough to enjoy with in pool seating. Rooms are good size, showers and sinks good water projection. No cleanliness issues. Snacks and meals can be ordered at bar. Great alcoholic deals. Great group of people. And lots of girls for you to meet - I’m sure Niko will introduce you. Top man. Would return undoubtedly. Very cheap too
Went as a big group of girls. On the whole a decent hotel- good location, clean enough, amenities, nice pool, good price. The woman who owned the hotel was lovely as well - gave us some tips and felt safer in her hands. But the man who ran the bar though was disgusting and a creep for our whole stay. Some of the things he said to us included - - “ I’ll look away if anyone gets sh*gged, very very sexy ladies, f*** me I’m so horny” - “58 up here 21 down there” - “Hubba bubba come to pappa” - “I am your little daddy” - “Too much punani, easy punani” We felt unsafe and grossed out to the point that we stopped going to the bar and he should not be in that job.
Great accommodation with kind staff and decent rooms. Although the rooms were small they were just what we needed. They had a very small kitchen with a comping stove and limited kitchen utensils but was still able to cook. The pool was great and the bar/cafe served good food and drink. It is right on the strip so good for young people and safe to get back too. Cleaners came every few days and changed sheets and towels which was very handy. Overall good experience, perfect for young people (we where a group of 12 girls) and would recommend
The hotel rooms were lovely and kept clean the whole time with room service same time, everyday. The woman that checked us in was very blunt, harsh and not very helpful in any way. Not only that but she worried everyone by not bringing the right booking confirmation out and telling us we were leaving 2 days before we booked. That problem was soon resolved. The rest of the week she was still not very pleasant to talk to and was best to avoid. The rest of the staff were lovely and welcoming. Overall a decent experience and would suggest it to another group of teenagers going on a holiday due to the accessibility to the strip. But be aware of the strict rules in the hotel.
Decent studios and great location. Friendly family owned business. Downsides: We had to pay for the air con to be turned on which was ridiculous. They charge a nightly rate We payed for breakfast on the first day but it’s not worth it, much better off going outside and finding great places for the same price or cheaper. Otherwise not a bad little place.
Very good location. Near restaurant, bars , supermarket and pharmacy. Walking distance to the beach. Everything is clean, looks very good. It’s a family running hotel. They are very friendly and make you feel very welcome and they are very helpful. Brilliant breakfast!!!! Thank you very much to make my holidays so great! Wi-Fi actually works every where in there! It may be a bit noise in July and August because is in the strip, but at the end of September it was perfect.
Booked a break with my partner they gave us single beds and wanted 70 euros for Aircon was never mentioned when booking..put is in a terrible room nothing like what we saw on the second day a guy was listening to music on his phone on the top balcony and was told turn it down would never have booked this place but otb and jet 2 mislead also they actually share their pool with 2 other complex trust me there's way better than a hostel rooms sheets changed once in 7 days with towels too do yourself a favor a research your hotels
Bon séjour à l’hotel avec un personnel sympa et un beau cadre Très bien situé près de la plage et rue commerçante
Visited Malia and booked 2 rooms with 3 people each at Mirage. Upon entry we were told by the short man that it would be 50 euros per room for air conditioning for the stay. Talking to other guests at the hotel we realised no one else was being made to pay this other than us? He also tried to convince us to pay this by saying if we bought girls back he would ‘look the other way’ about giving us a fine. Seems like a way to just con us out of more money. Granted we were drunk and lively, just as you’d expect from boys on a holiday to Malia however the management acts as if it’s a family hotel and not some apartments literally on the strip. On the first night here we had come back at early morning hours and were simply talking in our room with the doors closed. The same short man forced himself in our room and proceeded to give us a half an hour lecture on why we shouldn’t be loud. Fair enough. A few nights later we came home again, we’re being moderately quiet with the occasional laugh and the same man from management had climbed from the rear of our room from the balcony, come in and told us to pack all our stuff and we were getting kicked out. After telling him we wouldn’t be shouted at the top of his lungs for a good half an hour ( when his whole point was we were being loud ) and finally left. Other than this the rooms were okay sized, the pool was good and the location great. If you can be bothered to deal with the people working there I’d say take the risk but if you want to bring guests back or have a laugh with your mates in your own rooms I wouldn’t recommend.
malia is a great party place, went many times, but the best thing u can do is get urself a hotel on the main strip right in the centre of everything! will never forget the feeling of walking out and being right on the strip, music blasting, so crowded. hotel is cheap as of price, clean nice rooms nice food nice staff and nice pool. cant wait for covid to be over so malia can be the same as back in 2019.
ottimo prezzo e locazione
Amazing. The staff were very helpful and welcoming.
Air conditioning was not included despite the fact that it clearly states it is included in the room (7 euros/day to be paid extra). No shampoo and WiFi was very slow. The room was clean, new and the bed were comfortable but I don't think I'll ever come back here again with the current management: the first night, the owner started yelling at us and making a scene as if we were kids because she noticed we were about walk to my room with friends and 3 more people from the hotel - we just wanted to chill there since the bar and pool area were closed/off-limits. After trying to talk to her (seriously, I paid for the room and my friends did too), she kept yelling at us so we desisted and left the property. The following days the owner didn't even greet us in the morning. Extremely poor service and definitely not the excellent treatment you usually get in Greece and that we got in every other hotel during our stay.
Schönes Hotel , super Pool. Da man sowieso denn ganzen Tag unterwegs ist optimal gewesen. Leider ziemlich laut gewesen da es direkt hinter der Partymeile lag ( wo trotz corona ordentlich gefeiert wurde) Super tolle und liebe Mitarbeiter, tolle Leiterin!
Just off the Strip central location but very quiet can’t hear the Strip. Very clean, excellent shower, lovely hosts, family run, good bar well stocked and reasonably priced and a nice pool. Highly recommend 🥂
This hotel was perfect for us. Even when we went in September. The hotel is located virtually on the strip but set back a bit with a private pool. Niko is amazing, top funny and laid back guy. Room was very nice and modern. We are going back september 2020 for the same again. By the way, malia is best lads/girls holiday destination. Would recommend Britz bar or Mint bar for pre drinks. Yamas.
Le personnel trop sympa Ambiance familiale. Manque quelques ustensile pour cuisiner dans le coin cuisine
Les chambres sont nettoyées tous les jours. Ceci était parfait. Toutefois, les femmes de ménage se présentent même lorsque vous êtes présent et n'attendent pas votre départ...
The owners are very friendky and try to give you the best service what they can. Cleaning every day the rooms. Good tavernas in the oldtown of malia. With a car you could ride outside to the beaches and away from thr party zone. Thanks for the nice time. D and P
Amazing staff, great location, near the beach and the city center, fair price and really good food. I came with friends and it was perfect, can’t think about a complain, honestly! Highly recommended!!!!
Great vibe to the whole hotel. The staff members were fantastic, all up for a laugh and very welcoming
Proprietari molto cordiali.Struttura molto carina..
We asked the property for a transfer from the airport so the driver came to pick us up with his new Mercedes van amazingly comfortable. When we arrived to Mirage the owner welcomed us with a Raki drink and later send us to our room. The room is really new and very clean, with a super comfortable bed, small kitchen -perfectly equipped for breakfast or lunch. Whatever we needed we were able to ask for and everybody was so helpful, in this 10 days we almost felt like a part of it, because everybody makes You feel so comfortable. There is a garden with a beautiful big pool which we enjoyed in the morning during coffee time. Never too crowded , You could really relax and enjoy it fully. The location is perfect, in the heart of Malia, a few steps from everything needed (shops, pharmacy,restaurants,bars,beach, rent a car)... Thanks again to all the staff, it was a pleasure to stay at Mirage Studios, and we would recommend it every time.
