Our stay at the noverian scene hotel was amazing. The villa and the pool were really beautiful, well decorated and extremely clean. The food we had for breakfast was delicious, very fresh and prepared daily. All the staff was also super nice and friendly. The hotel is located a little bit above Malia, just before the mountains and the road to access it is not that long, but a little slopping, so I would probably recommend renting a car or ATV to stay there if you want to go to Malia city center every day freely. But the spot has a wonderful view on Malia and is really quiet. Couldn't recommend more!
