Crete - places for young-ish ppl

Shoeluver

Hi am hoping to go to crete early next year as a group of girls in 20's and was wondering if it would be a good place for some girls who wants some sun in day and clubs at night!

Also want to spend about £350 pp for a week flights and hotel is that realistic???

TIA

Went to Malia in Crete in the summer, sounds just like what you are looking for, plenty of nightlife. I got two weeks in September for under your budget, so your budget should be fine!

Hi,
We used to stay in nearby Stalis which is just up the coast from Malia, Stalis is a little quieter than Malia but the beachfront road makes the 2 easy to get between, there's plenty of bars, resteraunts and shops on this road and it makes a nice walk.
Make an effort to get into Malia old town accross the main road at the top end of Malia for a drink or meal.
We used to always used to book with Kosmar, due to them offering cheap no frills family run accomodation.. if you don't mind not having a pool you can save loads.

malia, stalis or hersonnisos will do you fine!
malia has loads of clubs all types of music as well and a fab beach to get the tan!!

Dunno about Stalis - I liked it (and I'm a non-clubbing "oldie"...). Malia seems to be The Place (as featured on TV) - you should be able to get a decent week for £350 (quieter places do fortnights for less), season is generally May to October, would avoid July/August unless you get aircon included.
