Golden Sun Apartments

As soon as we arrived at the property we had our first surprise, hot water completely absent. The following day we understood that it only works during the day, so in the evening you either take a cold shower or you manage on your own. Room to say the least dirty from the very first entry. Cleaning is not carried out but there is no equipment to do it independently. they change the towels 2 times a week. We are on vacation but we are living a nightmare. We have a one-year-old baby with a high fever and we cannot even wash him since the sink is practically nonexistent. The air conditioning is for a fee, but in this heat it is mandatory because, at night, if you open [the window], the mosquitoes devour you. It is shameful. Never happened to experience a vacation with the desire to return home.

Our expectations were completely exceeded, very nice small well-kept facility, super pool, impeccably clean, very nice owners, a cool dog named Diego... and far away from the crowded tourist hustle... we would love to come back here... unfortunately, we are going home tomorrow

We stayed at the Golden Sun Boutique Hotel in Malia for the second time last year – and that says it all. 😊 Already on our first trip we felt very comfortable there, which is why it was quickly clear to us that we want to come back. Also on the second stay we were again incredibly warmly welcomed and immediately treated like welcome guests. The hotel has a wonderful family atmosphere. The two owners run the small boutique hotel with a lot of heart and take care of their guests attentively. You just feel that hospitality is really lived here. Our apartment was very clean, cozy and exactly as described in the pictures. We found the quiet, yet central location particularly pleasant again. Both the old town of Malia and restaurants, bars and the beach are within easy reach. For us, the Golden Sun Boutique Hotel has become a small oasis of well-being in Crete. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely come back. ☀️🌴
