Alexander Beach Hotel & Village 5* —

Just for you
Just for you:
  • 1 x bottle of wine upon arrival in room (per room, per stay)

Nestled along the shimmering northern coastline of Crete, Alexander Beach Hotel & Village 5* is a timeless seaside sanctuary where modern elegance meets centuries-old island heritage. Established in the 1990s, this graceful resort occupies a stretch of golden sand in the charming village of Malia, famed for its Minoan archaeological site that whispers tales of ancient civilisation just beyond its horizon.

 

Palm-lined walkways lead through whitewashed buildings framed by bougainvillaea, while the Aegean’s crystalline waters lie only a few steps from your room. By day, the soft hum of waves seems to echo the rhythms of local life; by night, the starlit beach and gentle coastal breeze evoke a tranquil, barefoot luxury that feels both classic and utterly Cretan.

Your room —

Choose between a stay in a Comfort Sea View Beachfront Room, a Comfort Sea View Room or a Luxury Superior Beach Front Room.

Comfort Sea View Beachfront Room (23 m²)

Nestled just steps from the shoreline, the Comfort Sea View Beachfront Room exudes serene Cretan charm, inviting you to wake up to the soft sound of lapping waves from your private balcony. With gentle marine hues and thoughtfully styled interiors, it wraps you in a peaceful seaside essence that feels both breezy and blissfully rooted in its coastal setting.

Your dining choices

This is a full board stay. Your breakfast, lunch and evening meal will be served in the main restaurant (excludes drinks).

For a casual midday treat, the Taverna & Ouzerie Meltemi invites you to savour authentic Cretan mezes beneath flowering bougainvillaea, while Ristorante Olivia delivers irresistible Italian delights by the pool.

 

When the sun sinks, the Beach Restaurant & Bar Mediterraneo is the perfect spot to indulge in light Greek or international fare as the waves gently lap nearby. Afterwards, retire to Dionysos Lobby Bar for evening aperitifs, Poseidon Pool Bar to soak up live entertainment, or Apollo Cocktail Bar for cocktails with a sea-kissed backdrop.

Your journey to Crete —

Flights:

You will be able to choose your airline and flight times when you make your booking, in either Economy, Premium, or Business class, depending on the destination and carrier. This flight may include one or more stopovers.

 

Please review your flight options carefully as departure and arrival airports may differ, in order to offer the best price.

You will receive all the information you need to check in for your flights after you have made your reservation.

Crete —

Myth and Mediterranean magic collide on Greece’s largest island, where golden beaches, mountain-fringed gorges, and age-old traditions create a tapestry of timeless beauty. Crete is a place where minotaurs once roamed, Venetian harbours gleam in the sun, and the scent of wild thyme drifts on the breeze.

 

 

Must sees:

 

  • Palace of Knossos – Step into the past at this legendary Minoan site, where frescoed halls and labyrinthine ruins whisper ancient tales.
  • Chania’s Old Town – Lose yourself in a maze of cobbled lanes, Venetian mansions, and waterfront tavernas bathed in golden light.
  • Samaria Gorge – Hike through towering limestone cliffs and wildflower-strewn valleys on one of Europe’s most breathtaking trails.
  • Elafonissi Beach – Escape to a dreamlike shore where pink sands meet crystal-clear turquoise waters.

 

 

Culinary culture:

 

Indulge in dakos, a rustic bruschetta of crisp barley rusks topped with juicy tomatoes and creamy mizithra cheese. Feast on slow-roasted lamb infused with mountain herbs, or sample fresh seafood straight from the Aegean. And no meal is complete without a shot of fiery raki, best enjoyed in the company of hospitable locals.

 

 

Dive deeper:

 

Beyond the postcard-perfect coastlines, Crete’s soul lies in its villages. Experience the hypnotic rhythms of lyra music at a traditional panigiri festival, where locals dance the night away in celebration. Visit Anogeia, a mountain stronghold of resilience and folklore, or explore the eerie cave of Zeus, said to be the birthplace of the mighty god himself.

 

 

Good to know:

 

Summer sizzles with long, sun-drenched days, while spring and autumn offer milder weather perfect for hiking. Public transport links major towns, but hiring a car unlocks hidden coves and mountain hideaways. The currency is the euro, and a warm “Yassas” goes a long way in forging friendships.
