Wannabe 5*, not followed through
Beautiful and modern villa with pool and nice view across the northern coast of Crete. However… Maintenance is ** or less, unfortunately. To start with - an overperfumed reception area that makes you wonder what smell they are trying to hide. The villa presented dirty when we arrived, with fingermarks from previous guests all over the doors, stained floors, broken glass in a corner, smelly drains, stains all over the bathroom wall tiles, rims of dirt around shower drains and seals. Broken kitchen appliances, broken lights, broken fumes hood, broken mosquito screens. We notified the reception but nothing changed (except that they repaired the shower fixture). Cleaning was virtually nonexistent also while we stayed there; at the same time there was no cleaning equipment available for us neither for the kitchen/dishes nor for the house in general. Towels were removed when placed on the floor but not replaced. We also had sufficient visits of the local wildlife (🪳, 🐜, 🐛) encouraged by the crumbs that we left in the kitchen and that were not (able to be) removed. Very disappointing and sad that the houses are not maintained, because the quality of the house to start with is excellent. We tested the restaurant, the menu was handed out on a crumbled printout, we were the only guests. The service could profit from some more training but the food was good. The main pool area seems to be open to the public, and sunbeds and the pool got quite crowded on the weekend. The hotel is located a 20-30 min walk up a rather steep hill from Malia center so a car may be advisable.

The best view in Malia!
It was very peaceful with a breathtaking view! The best choice for business trip and relaxation! The gym is also open in winter time but spa area was closed.
BEST PANORAMIC VIEW
The hotel and his restaurant has a fantastic panoramic view and a romantic sunset. Breakfast is Greek and organic - very good quality. Villas are big enough, comfortable and very clean. Staff is very friendly to help you at any time

Exceptional stay with breathtaking views – highly recommended!
Our stay at The Noverian Scenic Malia was absolutely outstanding and truly exceeded all expectations. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the elegant design, peaceful atmosphere, and the stunning panoramic views.
The rooms are modern, spacious, and impeccably clean, with beautiful décor and very comfortable beds. Every detail feels thoughtfully designed to create a experience. The views from the property — especially at sunset — are simply unforgettable.
The staff were exceptional: friendly, attentive, and always ready to help. Their professionalism and genuine hospitality made us feel welcome and well taken care of throughout our stay.
The pool area is gorgeous, calm, and perfect for relaxing, with plenty of comfortable loungers. Everything feels well organized and never crowded, allowing you to truly unwind.
Breakfast was delicious and well presented, with fresh ingredients and a good variety to suit all tastes. The overall atmosphere of the hotel is tranquil and refined, making it ideal for couples, families and anyone seeking relaxation away from the busy areas.
The Noverian Scenic Malia is a perfect choice if you’re looking for a stylish, serene, and high-quality stay in Crete. We would happily return and recommend it without hesitation.

Panoramic Sunset
We stayed at this fantastic complex of Villas with panoramic view, beginning of December 2025. The Hotel has a la carte Restaurant, bar, Gym, Coiffure etc. The hotel has also a very big public swimming opool but we didn't use it because it was cold. Very friendly cleaning staff and reception staff.
