When i first arrived i was taken to the room were it had two rooms with two bedrooms in. Both rooms had a balcony with a great view and breeze. The appartment was very close to the market and the strip. The pool was always clean an cool and around the pool was clean also. I am that happy with the place and appartment i hope to book again next year, the people in and around the bar were helpful and nice to talk to.

First things first is that this hotel is amazing! It was my 1st time going there but others in our groups 2nd n 3rd time and i really loved the place.
The bar is 24 hr so if you daint want to go down to the strip u cud sit there instead and some nights we preffered to stay at there instead! The maids were always friendly and came every 2 days.
The food at the bar was very good everytime. The staf were all friendly and would gladly talk to you and play on the air hockey table with you.
The only down thing is that the toilets down stairs by the bar tended to have quite a few mosquitos but wat do u expect if there lights on outside theres going to be some there. When it came to the end of the holiday u dont want to leave this place i highly recommened it to anyone and i have booked to go there again next year.
Also if you do go there on the beach to the left there was loads of water activites which were good and i recommened you having a walk down the beach to the right to the blue lagoon bar ellena and franko own that bar and there very nice people!

Pyrgos apartments are right on the beach and far enough away from the main part of Malia to not be affected by the noise from the resort.
The apartment that we were unfortunate enough to be allocated room 111 was infested with millipedes which somehow got into the sparsely furnished room on a daily basis the shower head would not stay in the riser rail and had to be held by hand the lid was broken on the waste bin, no cover on the electric supply board,plaster falling off the walls due to dampness and generally run down tired apartment.
I must add that not all the apartments were as bad as ours as we did have the opportunity to see one or two others. However the apartments consist of 2 wings each 3 stories high and have been built in a V shape with a courtyard/atrium in the middle, in effect this is a GIANT megaphone so that any noise is blasted out to the rest of the apartments even just normal speech sounds loud and doors closing late at night sound as if they are being slammed with a vengeance.
The pool and bar area are well up to scratch and the food is of a good quality although limited variety.
The staff are friendly and helpful. our apartment was cleaned alternate days sheets and towels were changed twice a week.

My partner and I went in on the second week in October. Enjoyed it apart from everything was closing down in the town (bars, restaurants, water-world etc).
The apartment were very basic but clean. The cleaners were lovely. Chris the bar man was very friendly and entertaining, especially on the barbecue (which we fully recommend you go to, great food).
Recommend that if you decide to go to Crete and want night life and a fun packed holiday. Go before the first week in October.
Enjoyed ourselves very much.

The rooms are basic but lets be honest aren't they all in Greece and the Greek islands however the room was throughly cleaned daily and towels were changed every other day. On a whole it is clean and tidy however the reception area needs a finishing off.
The food is all cooked to a good standard but the menu is limited.
The location is 10 mins walk from the heart of Malia which is great if you have a family and don't want to be kept awake all night by the all night partiers, it is also sited directly on the beach which makes life easy if you prefer beach to the pool.
The staff well what can I say absolutely fantastic specially Cris, Maria and Tula, they were brilliant with the kids.
Entertainment is limited but on Fridays they have a BBQ and Cris puts on a show with Greek Dancing, Fire blowing and picking up tables and chairs with his teeth

The room was very basic with little catering facilities and impossible to make any food.
We had a leek in our room which was reported and nothing done about it. Although the staff already knew about this as there was a towel on the cupboard already soaking up the leek.
We got clean towels once during the whole week. And was only swept about twice.
The staff were very rude and unhelpful towards our group.
There is no reception at all.
My opinion is that if you spend money behind the bar you get better treatment.
If I was to return to Malia I would not stay there and I would discourage anyone else to stay there.

Myself,partner and many friends 26 plus have been going to the pyrgos for on a self catering basis for nine years on the trot. The rooms are clean and tidy but basic, which are cleaned every 3 days by friendly staff.The food is fantastic which is cooked by Tyana who is great.

We stayed at the Pyrgos apartments September 2006 and had a fantastic time.
The rooms were basic but clean and tidy, the cleaners were super and would leave you be on the early morning after the night before.
The location of the apartments is right on the sea front so your rooms either have seaview or mountain view. It's about a 5 - 10 minute walk from the main strip.
The staff at the appartments were always welcoming and very friendly anything you needed was just a question away and they would sort that for you.
The pool area was always clean and safe with plenty of people to hand.
There's a Greek BBQ night on Friday nights for only 15
