Had a lovely ride through the mountains lead by the lovely Bo (fantastic guide, lovely to meet you!). The stables are beautiful and most importantly the horses are cared for superbly. Was surprised to find the stables also has a restaurant, I did not eat here but it looks beautiful! Views and scenery are amazing, staff are caring and attentive. Cannot recommend enough! Thank you for a wonderful day Bo, Sabine and Manolis!

Help Bar

Reviewed By mini_me57 - Hampshire, United Kingdom

The three of us first went to Help with only a few days left in Malia, I wish we went there sooner because we spent every night thereafter! Christine makes the most lethal yet personal fishbowl concoctions (#NoPeachSchnappsPlease), she and Raluca really make you feel at home and are a great laugh! They were nice enough to give us loads of free shots! The DJ also ACTUALLY plays songs you request, which kept us going back! Also, we liked that there was no bathroom attendant demanding €2 to use it every time ???? would love to go back!
