There is a reason we call our Italian restaurant Almyra 🍝.
In Greek, the word describes the unmistakable saltiness of the sea, the scent carried by the breeze, the feeling of being by the water, and the character that the coast leaves behind.
It is this same sense of place that defines every meal.

Authentic Italian recipes, fresh ingredients, leisurely lunches under blue skies, and intimate dinners accompanied by the sound of the waves only at the Almyra restaurant at Phāea Cretan Malia.

Learning begins with curiosity and caring begins with connection. 🌍 As part of the Oceanic Global Short Film Festival presented by Design Hotels, we welcomed families for a celebration where environmental awareness came to life through creativity, storytelling, and shared experiences.

Throughout the day, our youngest guests explored the natural world through hands-on eco activities, creating crafts, painting, dressing up, and discovering how even the smallest actions can help protect our Blue Planet. As the sun began to set, the story continued with Gaia, a live theatre performance inspired by Greek mythology, celebrating Mother Earth and our enduring connection to the natural world. Music, dancing, and laughter followed, bringing children and families together in a joyful celebration of nature.

The evening concluded beneath the stars at The Place, where guests gathered for an open-air cinema experience featuring award-winning short films from the Oceanic Global Short Film Festival, powerful stories reminding us of the beauty of our oceans and the importance of protecting them for generations to come...

A space where art, design, and hospitality come together to create something truly meaningful.
