- "This boutique hotel is superb! I liked everything about it and it exceeded all our expectations. The rooms are spacious, clean, well decorated and the beds are comfortable. The pool area is even more beautiful than on the pictures, everything is brand new. The area is quiet but very close to the restaurants and bars. But what made our stay truly unforgettable was the friendliness and hospitality of the people that work there. I hope to return to this place some day."

- "The breakfast is really nice and the food itself is amazing. We visited a few restaurants but Drossia's inhouse Reastaurant was the one we enjoyed the most. The staff ist very friendly and they always help you if you have any problems. In addition the place they got at the beach was amazing. The staff there was also very nice. We felt very welcomed and would recommend it to stay there 100%. It is noisy at nights but we knew this, as Malia is known for it's clubs."
