When planning your holiday you might be looking for Crete hotels or attractions in Malta which fit your preferences and budget. But what if you're travelling with someone whose expectations are very different to yours? Perhaps they only want somewhere with an onsite spa, or perhaps they will be unwilling to fly a budget airline? It's not easy, but it is possible to find a middle ground where everyone can get the holiday they want. And you won't have to blow your budget either.
If you're booking your Crete or Malta hotels you might as well ask for something specific, if it will help keep your fussy friend's requirements in check. If they want a quieter room, ask for one away from main roads, or one on a higher floor. If they prefer a bath, ask if there is a room which has one, rather than just a shower. If you don't ask, you won't get, and whatever you can do to ease the difficulty level of travelling with a high-maintenance friend, the better!
Of course, if your friend is only happy with five-star hotels, then fear not - you can get some great deals on even the most luxurious Malta hotels! The InterContinental MALTA, in pretty St George's Bay offers some great deals, and with it you'll get a private beach with sun loungers, glamorous swimming pool and access to many water sports. If you're heading for Crete, try the Panorama Hotel which has fantastic views over Chania. You never know, you might find yourself enjoying the high-maintenance lifestyle!
Of course, if your budget really is strict, then don't be afraid to say so! Your friend will be understanding when they see what hotels you can find for less. The Kyani Akti Beach hotel in Crete is an affordable option, away from the bustle of the main towns, and has all the facilities you could want for a dream holiday.
You can also live it up in Paradise bay in Malta, home to a stunning natural cove. Or find the secret beach in Imgiebah Bay, where you'll feel like it's your very own slice of paradise. You're both sure to come back from your trip feeling happy.
