Golden Sun Boutique  

Down a quiet street in the centre of Malia on Crete’s north coast, this boutique guesthouse sits a short walk from Malia Beach and a few minutes’ drive from Stalis Beach and the Palace of Malia. Nikos Kazantzakis Airport (HER) is roughly 32.5 km away.

Take a dip in the outdoor seasonal pool surrounded by sun loungers and a poolside snack bar. There’s a sun terrace, garden and a terrace to unwind on. Complimentary Wi‑Fi is available on the property, free self-parking on site, and a tour/ticket desk plus car rental and transfer options make exploring Crete easy — perfect for sea-breeze mornings before the beach.
