I recently returned from a week long holiday with a friend, to the resort of Malia. Being an experienced visitor to many of the typical "clubbing/party" resorts, (i.e Faliraki, Playa de las Americas, Ayia Napa etc), I can confirm that Malia offers an incredibly good array of pubs, bars, discos and clubs. The set out of the town enables you to steadily work your way around the bars, drinking cocktails, fish bowls, and shots of tequila and after shock on the way. The variety of restaurants is also good, my personal recommendation being the mexican offering great tasting fajitas and enchilladas! I would steer clear of the several chinese restaurants however, as everybody I know who ate there had the same comment, "very greasy food." My only real disappointment with this resort would be the beach. Its watersports facilities are good, however the spacing of the sunbeds doesn't allow for any private conversations or leg stretching, a little bit like being packed like sardines. In fact we resorted to using the pool of a local hotel. The weather was fantastic for our entire stay and we both returned with glorious tans!

Advantages: the night life is amazing and you won't be short of things to do during the day! Disadvantages: quite a violent place but if you keep your heads down you will be fine
