Just got home from crete last night and never have i felt so down,

the holiday blues kicked in the minute the taxi left filia appartments, my wife and i have visited stalis before whilst pregnant, we returned for our second time with a 28 month old little girl our friends and their 10 month old. we had read the reviews about filia and the comments about the noise from the bar and the cleaning issues and were dissapointed to find our rooms to be the closest to the bar. The dissapointment didnt last more than the first night as we had so much fun by the time we went to bed we fell straight to sleep with not a care in the world this happenEd every night, if anything we loved being so close to the bar as we could lye our daughter down on the bed and see her from the bar.

The bar is run by Billy who is bonkers. He and the rest of his family couldnt do enough. We didnt feel like he wanted us at his bar just to make money, more to be entertained by his antics. The guy had a plaster cast all the way up his leg yet still ran around like a mad man making cocktails, serving food helping to entertain the children. He was also able to remember every single persons first name including kids and babies not just our group but every one staying at the filia .

If you want a fun interesting hotel situated 3 minutes from everything the filia is the place to stay.

I had a fabulous stay at the Filia Apartments. I would definitely go back, and other families on my trip said exactly the same!

Thank you so much to everyone at the Filia appts.

You work hard but it definitely seems to be paying off!

I can describe the Filia with three words-- HOLIDAY FROM HELL. Yes we got a great welcome but once we complained and changed rooms, because of the loud music till 4 in the morning, he didn't bother even speaking with us. The room was very basic, 1 toilet roll for two people for two weeks. The beds were only changed once in two weeks. The bathroom was never cleaned the whole time we were there. The shower head had a mind of it's own as it squirted everywhere. The worktops or sink was not cleaned the entire holiday. The bin was only emptied once. The air conditioning and safe box was very expensive so beware for hidden costs. The banging of doors was continuous all night, we even had people playing football inside at all hours. Unless you are prepared to sit all night buying booze at the pool bar do not stay here as you will not be made to feel welcome. When we were there this year on 15/07 until 29/07 lots of people were complaining to the rep about the noise and cleanliness. This is our first and last holiday to Greece.

Went here 1st week in June 2008. Apart from the dreadful noise at night, the place was lovely. The guys who run it were very nice. The place was nice enough to stay around all day. If you go back to your room early, try to avoid getting a room with a pool view as the rooms at the back are a bit less noisy but you do get road noise as well.

Atmosphere is excellent at the Filia. Its red hot but that's what we like. Very clean food spot on.Haven't been for 3 years but are going back in July for my honeymoon cant wait. Our kids love it, loads to do for them. Make sure you drink plenty red bull to keep you awake because you wont go bed till late. Fantastic place and they always make you welcome. This will be our third time there the kids are excited.

Fantastic hols thanks to all the family, 2001 we got married in Creta and stayed at Filia and go back to see them every year. Don't stay there any more due to the silly flights. We have been to Stalis twice in winter ,always go to see the family and have good times as there are not doing much.

Our whole holiday at the Filia Apartments in Stalis was fab! Loved the entertainment. Food was great! Me and my family have been twice now and are hoping to go back within a year or 2. This is a great place for families!

Great apartments, would definitely go back again! I'm going back to Crete in August 2007 but this time staying nearer Malia.
