AVAILABLE MAY TO OCTOBER - The Kyknos Beach Hotel is close to some of Crete`s most important points of interest including the archaeological site of Knossos, the plateau of Lassithi and the tropical beach of Vai. Malia town, a mile away, is a 10 minute walk. Malia is divided into 2 parts - a relaxed old town with traditional houses and tavernas and the newer area near the beach, which is livelier, with cafes, bars, discos and shops.
