Best summer I’ve ever had

Malia was unreal. Came out not knowing anyone and made mates in literally 48 hours. Rep support was solid and job trials were sorted quickly.

Felt looked after from day one

The group chats + info before flying out made it feel so easy. Accommodation was central and the socials helped everyone settle in fast.

Callum

Work hard, party harder

If you want a proper season, Malia delivers. Busy shifts, good vibes and loads happening every week. Would 100% do it again.

Came solo and had the best time

I was nervous arriving alone but honestly it was fine. Made friends instantly, and the rep was always around if you needed anything.

Frequently Asked Questions About Malia Jobs

Below is a list of the most common questions we get asked about working in Malia. If you still need help or have specific questions about Malia jobs, please don’t hesitate to get in touch .

Can I come to Malia on my own? +

Absolutely. Loads of workers arrive solo and it’s one of the easiest ways to meet people fast. You’ll be added to our members-only group after you apply, and we run socials to help everyone settle in.

Can I share accommodation with friends? +

Usually, yes — as long as you book the same package and arrive on the same date. We can’t guarantee it in every case, but we always try to accommodate requests. Your Malia rep will talk it through with you.

Are flights included? +

Flights aren’t included because prices change constantly. We recommend booking early for the best deals, and choosing one-way flights if you want flexibility with how long you stay.

Do I have to work if I book with Ace? +

We’re here to help you find work — but we’ve had people book the package for an extended holiday too. Just keep in mind you’ll need enough spending money if you’re not earning from a job.

When is the best time to arrive in Malia? +

Most people arrive from late spring through summer. Earlier arrivals can have more choice of roles, but there are still lots of opportunities later in the season — especially during peak months when venues need extra staff.

How easy is it to find work in Malia? +

We’ve built relationships with venues and managers over years of sending workers out every season. Vacancies get posted in the members group, and your rep helps you arrange trials and introductions so you’ve got the best chance of landing a role quickly.

What jobs are most common in Malia? +

The most common roles include PR, bar work, glass collecting, shot selling, ticket selling, event staff and holiday reps. If you’ve got experience (or a specific skill like DJing or dancing), we’ll help you aim for more specialist roles too.
