Summer Dreams Apartments in Malia are very basic. The rooms are not clean. Walls are dirty, and bathrooms are small. The sheets are only changed once a week, and they offer guests no towels or toilet rolls (all will have to be bought from the nearby supermarket). The swimming pool isn't the cleanest you will find, although it is of a fair size. The pool area is kept clean, and there are plenty of sunbeds for everyone.

For those staying here please be weary of handing over your passports to the owners. They tend to keep them for the whole of your stay as a "deposit" in case there is any damage to your room. Often, they try to charge you large amounts of money for existing damage, so when you arrive make sure you report all damage to your rep as soon as possible.

The apartments are situated close to the strip where all the bars and clubs can be found. Malia nightlife is wicked. Although there were a lot more men out there than women. Around 65% men to 35% women at times.

Malia is definitely the place to go this summer, and I would recommend the Summer Dreams if you want basic no frills accommodation.

The Summer Dreams Apartments had no air conditioning which was bad as it was August (peak time). Toilet was broken, and you only get one toilet roll and then you have to buy more if you want it.

Summer Dreams Apartments were very small. Door handle, toilet seat and fridge all broken, and not fixed despite numerous requests during out 2 week stay. Ants were everywhere. Says it's a 24 hour bar, which isn't true at all. Hours that you are allowed to go in the pool are limited. We had a major struggle trying to get our passports back from the owner who disappeared on the day we were leaving. He also accused us of putting a hole in the door, which was already there when we arrived, Not good!
