Malia stretches from the old village and the Minoan palace site down to a long beach lined with hotels, and the resort strip in between is busy on foot but slow to leave without a car. Most guests here discover that on day two.

Need a car today at Malia?
Already in Crete and need a car today? Send us your hotel name, preferred delivery time and rental dates. We will immediately check same-day or next-day availability and send you the available options. Urgent hotel delivery depends on your location, the time you need the car and what is genuinely free in the fleet that day, so the earlier in the day you write, the more we can usually do.
Before you count on a car
MyCrete is an independent local rental service. We have no office, desk, fleet or official partnership at any hotel, and we do not represent the properties named on this page - we simply deliver rental cars to guests staying there. Availability, delivery time, vehicle model and final price must always be confirmed before booking. Sending an enquiry does not reserve a car. Cars are supplied from our own availability and a carefully selected network of trusted local rental partners, and MyCrete stays your contact throughout the rental.
Find the right rental car
Answer a few quick questions. We will personally check actual availability and send you the final all-inclusive total price. Sending an enquiry does not create a booking or payment obligation.

Frequently asked questions
Is hotel delivery included in the total price?
Delivery in the Malia area is normally included in the price we quote. If any location-related charge applies, it is shown clearly in the offer before you confirm.
Does the rental include full insurance?
Yes. Every confirmed offer includes FCDW full insurance plus WUG cover for tyres, wheels, glass, mirrors and the underbody at €0 excess. Fuel is not included.
Is a security deposit required?
No. There is no security deposit and no credit-card hold on the offers we send.
Can I pay by cash or card?
Yes - payment is made at handover in cash or by card, unless something different is clearly agreed in writing beforehand.
Can you collect the car from a different hotel or Heraklion Airport?
Often yes. Tell us the return place and time in the enquiry; we confirm whether it works and state any location-related charge in the offer.
What documents do I need?
A valid physical driving licence, a passport or national identity card, and a payment method at handover. An EU licence is enough; some non-EU licences need an International Driving Permit.
Can drivers under 25 rent a car?
Younger drivers can rent, but the minimum age and licence-held period depend on the vehicle category. Send the main driver's age with the enquiry and we confirm the rule for that car.
