hello, i am doing some reserch for a destination for a group holiday next summer, me my boyfriend and 3 or 4 of our mates, between ages of 19-24. i quite like the look of Crete but not sure which resort would suit us.
we want to be close to good nightlife but also be able to have a quiter night if we wanted and we want to be able to get a good night sleep. what is the difference between Malia and Hersonisos and i understand these are on either side of stalis? how far are they from stalis is it walking distance?
would it be resonalbe to stay in stalis and be able to walk to either of the resorts and if so, are there hotels in stalis that would accomadate a small group of friends, or would we be better staying more towards one of the livley resorts? and ive herd the beach in maila is really nice and a good atmosphre playing music and the like so would like to be close to this beach unless there are other beach's simlar? think its called paradise beach. its our first friends/group hol so will be an experiance!

thanks for any help/advice
