Where to stay in Mastichari

Fantastic resort - lovely space to walk around with a number of pools and restaurants to choose from. Evening entertainment was available each night. We ate breakfast and dinner in the restaurant which had lots of choice. Relaxing atmosphere.

We had a good week eventhough it was the end of the season. We liked the sports, pools, the food and the service. We had two twin beds which was very sad and the room in general was small. Would recommend though.

Drains issues (so no toilet facilities and water intermittently) and tired looking rooms however the food and overall setting are great.

We are writing this review on our last day at the hotel. Beginning from the smallest detail, everything was carefully thought-out. We felt the luxury experience in every aspect of our stay. From the newly-renovated rooms, restaurant layout, quality of the equipment, attentivenese of the staff to the cleanliness of the every inch of the facility including pools, it was the best hotel we have ever stayed...

Had a fantastic second stay at this wonderful hotel! The staff are always so friendly and attentive, making you feel right at home. The facilities are top-notch, and I was thrilled to see the new check-out lounge and showers—such a great touch for guests. I even got a lovely room upgrade with stunning sea views, which made the stay even more special. This place is the perfect mix of relaxation and...

The staff in the restaurants and spa are wonderful. Giorgis at the spa was excellent — I received three treatments from him, and they were among the best I’ve ever had. The management of the spa is also excellent. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said for the front desk, which is a complete disaster. They are rigid, unhelpful, and in several cases outright incompetent. On our last stay, we did not...

The rooms are somewhat below average and would benefit from renovation. The food is average, and the buffet service staff could improve their professional appearance. Overall hygiene in the complex is acceptable. Overall, I would rate the property 3 out of 5.”

Super friendly front desk staff! Also hotel has super spacious area and nice beach

Breakfast left A LOT to be desired. Plentiful but pretty gross and uninspiring. Mass tourism hotspot - if you want to holiday with the masses - come here. Rooms tidy. Service from staff was odd ..... Just an odd place.

Amazing hotel! The location is like paradise on earth, the staff so friendly and competent, the facilities and amenities amazing. Real value for money. Thank you for this amazing summer vacation resort!

We have spent one week in this hotel. We stayed in nice and new apartment. The rooms were really clean and bed were comfy. The stuff in this hotel is extremely kind. The food is good but I guess it depends on preferences, good thing that the lunch and dinner is everyday different. It's really close to the beach as well but the access to sea might be a bit hard as there is a lot of big stones on the...

The Hotel area is very beautyful. The size of the room, especially the bathroom, is perfect. I love the free safe as well as the electronic handling in connection with the cleaning service. The private beach is a plus as well. I like the many options to hang out in the areal. The stuff is friendly, good service, helpful. At the reception a got sometimes the feeling that my questions were annoying to...

Big Thank you to our Cleaning Personnel for Room G4203 in the first October week 25. We never experienced such a warm welcome and accommodating. The room was always very clean and we hope our tip reached the right lady. Thank you for your work. We appreciate it very much. Best, Christina

7 night stay at end of Sept 2025, block B Junior Suite. Overall we had a perfectly pleasant stay, the hotel has some really good points and some areas for improvement. Pros: 1. Location of hotel and our block is excellent for the beach, which is miles and miles long, perfect for long walks on soft sand! The beach is also peaceful and no noise pollution from water sports. 2. The hotel setting was...

After a week at Smy Kos Beach & Splash, we are back home and I’d like to share my impressions. Cleanliness & Room The room cleanliness was good overall, although the towels were dirty and didn’t smell fresh. The cleaning staff was always friendly and tried their best. The room itself was very small for three people and three suitcases. Hotel & Dining Area For a four-star hotel, I expected something...

This is our second consecutive year at this hotel, and I can assure you it's a pleasure to stay here. Luxurious, clean, with respectful and professional staff. Bravo, it's just perfect! A special message for the animation team: we loved you. This team is there all day for guests, and they put on magnificent shows in the evening! Matilda, Frederico, Alessia, and the other members, you are excellent...

Really good place to stay at. The staff is really friendly and helpfull. The food quality is really good and fresh, everyday you have other choises. Next time we go again to Smy Kos Beach!

Very nice hotel, people working there were very nice and friendly. There were not many attractions nearby, but there was not really any need for them, because every night there was some event happening at the hotel at one bar. If you didn't want to participate you could go to the second bar near the beach which was really quite and nice to talk.

Staff is nice. Hotel is nice. The food was not so nice. By the third day we couldn’t stomach it really. The mosquito net in our room was ripped and our baby got mauled. Everything was pretty mediocre. But the staff and hotel itself were nice. Location is also good

This hotel is the tui magic life not horizon which is next door. I cannot edit the hotel name. Lovely hotel, staff all friendly especially bar staff. Rooms clean infact all the grounds are kept very clean. A lot of pools all clean, swim up bar which is essential 😁. 3 restaurants and a gyros/pizza by the pools. Plenty of bars throughout complex. Always get a sunbed, towels available. Beach tidy with...

A wonderful hotel. The employees are very friendly and professional. We enjoyed our stay very much. The beach, the pools, the environment. Very great. You have wifi everywhere on the beach, in the room, at the pool.

The best hotel in my life for now! It was so amazing 🤩 Food is tasty, service are high professional, everyday room cleaning, amazing views! Strongly recommend

I was considering giving 4 or even 5 stars as overall I am happy with the resort but one important minus is the room cleaning, which is very poor and shallow. There were still hairs from the previous guests on the bath, bathroom floor and various spots, very visible. Mirrors were not wiped for a long time, remote control was very sticky and dusty. Etc etc. Nothing has changed after the room cleaning...

Very good hotel, nice location, kind staff and good food. Only point of feedback - a lot of noise during the evenings from the TUI hotel, located directly next to Horizon Beach Resort.

We spent an enjoyable week at this hotel and were very satisfied with our experience. The pools were lovely, providing a perfect spot to relax and unwind. Our room was spacious and well-appointed, making our stay comfortable. The dining options were impressive, with a great selection of meals that catered to various tastes. While the sea had some waves during our visit, it was still enjoyable for...

It was a great overall experience. The staff was super friendly. We will definitely come back.

👎Food and beverage massively disappointing. If you are looking for good food, wine and coffee, reconsider. Even the “a la carte” restaurants were not quality food or drink. - Staff were very friendly and helpful. - Most Amenities were good. Some nice quiet swimming pools. The main pool is quite loud and crowded. - Beach access is great. Tho bit crowded if you don’t arrive early. - Food is just...

Enjoyed our stay We stayed for one night, and overall, it was a fantastic experience. However, we were disappointed with the sea view from our room. The balcony wall was too high and made of concrete, obstructing the view significantly. The sea view was also partial and quite distant, which did not meet our expectations. The front desk staff tried to assist us by offering another room, but unfortunately...

Wonderful staff who are so quick and efficient thanks to their mix of students studying Travel or Hotel Tourism type studies. Really was one of our best 5 star holidays and no regrets.

The staff were very lovely and helpful. Nothing was too much for them. The only negative was the Spar changing room and showers as drains blocked and shower water comes into changing area floor.

Stayed here for a few days in July 2025. Big complex, great location right on the beach, numerous swimming pools, decent rooms. Compared to other entertainment teams we thought Gaia royals team lacked energy, charisma and personality. They were friendly enough however. Unfortunately guests will leave their towels out on the sunbeds overnight, thus reserving sunbeds for the duration of their stay...

Unsure what the negative reviews are about. It was super relaxing staying at this hotel. Staff were lovely, food was really nice. All inclusive drinks is spirits, wine and beer, cocktails not included. There is 3 pools which were kept nice. Entertainment at night was good, live music, games and a dance act on greek night. Beach is super close, the bar at the beach not included in all inclusive but...

A lot of time has passed since the hotel's much-vaunted renovation, and it was visible here and there in the room, ours still allowed us a pleasant and relaxing stay. The room (Family Superior 2 Bedrooms Side Sea View) was in one of the buildings very close to the beach and the terrace had a really beautiful view of the sea. Room was cleaned daily, including changing towels and also coffee and tea...

Gaia Royal is probably one of the best resorts we've stayed. Rooms cleaned daily so very clean. Mini zoo for kids and also mini golf, several kids play, tennis, football, basketball court, 3 very good pools with bars. Garden areas beautiful and balconies on apartment blocks very spacious and sheltered from sun. Gaia itself is a bit out of the way but there's very good buses that run from hotel reception...

In what kind of hotel you get bottle water? xD Those negative comments are funny. Lovely, family hotel. Very quiet. Bungalows, village, everyday cleaning, big rooms. Air conditioning. The whole place is very well organised, garden is marvellous, there are paths for babystrollers and plants and palms are amazing. Bravo for reusable cups - it makes place seem much more clean and friendly. It is not...

All right...so about the Gaia Royal... To far away from the sea, the swimming pool are not very clean, so I think they don't filter the water. In the beginning of the resort (the kids swimming pool) there is a very bad smell( I don't know how people stay there). If you are a sea lover than if you are lucky and have a room close to the sea than it's OK. The lady's from cleaning top class 👌 👏 🙌 😍 ...

We were transferred to this Hotel as our original accommodation was unable to host us. We were actually really pleased. It's a nice hotel with loads of facilities. The staff on reception were very welcoming. Our room was 243. It was large and comfortable with a nice bathroom. It had a garden and sea view which was lovely. The veranda was spacious and there was a clothes airer. We were just on bed and...

Fantastic staff making the stay there exceptional short run from the airport and everything we needed was provided definitely go back thank you

We loved our stay at the resort, but let me first mention what we didn't like. The cappuccino costs 4.5 euros. The kids' program is in German. Why? I don't get it. I'm not German. German is not the world's number one language. Nobody cares about Germany, except this hotel, as there are many Germans here. The rooms are old; we barely managed to lock the doors, and the mosquito door cover on the balcony...

The location was good, the hotel grounds and gardens are beautiful very impressive. Our room was large and spotlessly clean, plenty of sunbeds available. Reception staff where very friendly and super efficient we requested a kettle and cups for use in our room it was sorted quickly, we also asked for a mattress topper to make the bed softer that was sorted quickly too. Breakfast was good lots of choice...

Very good Hotel. Super Kind staff. Two very nice Swimmingpool. Nice beach and very mice Sea (If calm). A bit of posedonia alga, but does not influence the Evaluation. Good food. Lot of choices. Good For Families with children of any age. Good For couples. It has a wonderful Sunset View.

Very very relaxing. Service was top notch! The rooms were clean and the pools were sparkling! Breakfast and dinner were very good with many choices. We were Very grateful for the chance to collect ourselves and do our laundry before going to the airport.

The place and the staff are excellent. Really enjoyed our family time. It's a shame that the place is being renewed and transformed into an adults-only hotel.

Agree with other reviews on star rating. It’s defo not a 5. So saying, the tired rooms, they were cleaned very well. Clean bedding every other day and towels. But the staff make this hotel. They are just all brilliant. The hotel is bricks and mortar, the staff make it! We had a wonderful time. Special thanks to George and Theo in the bar. Billy collecting and keeping every table clean. That all work...

To say we were disappointed is an under statement! 5 star it is not! There were a lot of weeds by the pool, toilets out of order and leaking everywhere. I do not expect a 5 star hotel to have manky shower curtains! The room was adequate but only cleaned every other day and not to a good standard. Considering you cannot flush toilet paper, the bin was changed every other day! The staff are friendly...

Great hotel. Very good food, plenty to choose from. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner are delicious, with local produce, fruits, vegetables, and cheeses. Very friendly and helpful staff throughout the hotel. I recommend the bar and the bartender, Theona. Every employee is kind and friendly. I highly recommend it.

Overall good hotel. Room numbers a bit old, but service is good and very good people who works there. Beach close to the hotel and mini market and car rental right in front of hotel is nice benefit either. But for active young couple a bit boring, this hotel more for the family with kids or elder people.

There were upgrades available. They showed up all our options and the additional prices. We chose one of the upgrades. This room was large and comfortable. They remembered our names.

Perfect for families with children. The staff is outstanding and very responsive to answer any questions you might have. They are quick in responding to your emails. It's a little bit of a walk to the beach. Every complex has their own little pool in addition to the super size pool in the middle of the complex.

Third visit back to the Gaia Palace. Lovely stay yet again. Staff were absolutely amazing and very friendly throughout our visit. We stayed in a superior double room which was excellent. The beautiful sandy beach with bar and toilets is a short walk with free sun beds for Gaia Palace guests.Not much locally around if you like a walk round a resort but a bus or short taxi ride into either Mastichari...

We had a wonderful stay! The staff were very friendly and welcoming, especially Mr. Nikos. The food was delicious and varied, with four different themed evenings. The hotel is beautiful and clean, with great pools and plenty of space – it never feels crowded. It’s not a huge, impersonal complex, but rather a charming place with low-rise buildings, nice rooms, and a lovely garden full of plants all...

I can only recommend this very nice hotel. Everything is perfect and it was worth every penny for this fantastic holiday. The nice and sandy beach is not too far away, about seven minutes to walk. The buffet offers more than enough, morning noon and night, the bar staff on both of the bars is just amazing, the pools are great, friendly staff all around, it's super clean all the time, what else can...

Lovely clean hotel. We went all-inclusive so had a good selection of food and drinks. Plenty of sunbeds and pools so it never looked busy. If you are looking for a quiet relaxing holiday I would recommend staying here.

The Gaia Palace is a lovely hotel one of three sister hotels in the same area, although we only went into the grounds of the other two, the Palace appeared to be the best, the grounds at the Palace are very nice and well kept. The public areas of the hotel are kept very clean. As we stayed towards the end of the season, the staff had really started to reduce, leaving two young people covering reception...

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with a big smile and great kindness by Saad, whose sense of hospitality immediately put us at ease. The entire staff, right down to the housekeepers, is incredibly friendly and always ready to help. The hotel is spotlessly clean you feel comfortable and safe. It's a perfect place for a family stay or a romantic getaway...

It was a beautiful stay. There was some confusion with the booking when we first arrived, but it was swiftly resolved by Maria. After a welcome drink we were taken to our room which was spacious, clean, comfortable with beautiful views. We were below the restaurant so the chairs moving were a little distracting, but didn't take anything away from the experience. The massage we had for my Birthday was...

My wife and I stayed at Ammos Luxury Hotel for a week from the end of September into the beginning of October, with the weather ranging from 23-25°C. We really enjoyed our stay here and were very impressed with how kind and helpful the staff are. Initially, upon arrival, we were told we would need to stay one night at another hotel due to technical issues, which we found a bit odd as we saw in reviews...

We enjoyed a wonderful week at Ammo’s Luxury Resort. The stunning views, relaxing vibe, great pool, and lively bar made our stay memorable. Renting a car in the lobby was easy, though model choices were limited—fine for the small island. The resort’s location allowed us to explore charming, quiet spots and return for dinner without rushing. Restaurant service was decent, but the menu lacked variety...

Our stay at Ammos was a magnificent experience. The resort is clean, beautiful and not so busy. Perfect place for a holiday! Much of that was thanks to an amazing bartender Christina! She’s always smiling, always happy to chat with you. I’ll never forget our stay at Ammos, she made my birthday feel so special with the cake and whole restaurant singing happy birthday to me. Truly wholesome human, so...

The staff were absolutely amazing and accommodating

Exceptional stay! Spotless rooms and an ideal location. Kosta and Eleni were incredibly hospitable and welcoming, making our experience truly memorable. Highly recommend!

It is an old 3 star hotel which should be acknowledged. This is reflected in the price. It is well maintoaned and spotlessly clean . Great location. Aged owner who was lovely. Whilst they don't serve food and the bar was closed there are plenty of options very close by. Room was freshly painted and whilst furniture is possibly 40 years old, what does that really matter. Had a great night's sleep...

High-quality service and highly recommended hotel to stay with family. I have visited many European countries but I would say this the most impressive hotel by the service within budget. My husband and I stayed for 3 nights. Being a 2- star hotel, the place and service are beyond my expectations. Location: Mastichari is a very convenient place to stay as Tegaki and Kefalos are both relatively close...

We stayed here 2 nights as we were heading to Kalymnos, we arrived very late at night. However, we had clear information on how to find the apartment and water was put in the fridge for us. The apartments were clean and in a good position for the harbour. Only a 2 minute walk round to the beach area. Loved the sunset in the evening.

Only stayed for one night while waiting for our early morning ferry. The man on the front desk was very friendly and accommodating. The room was very clean. The bed was very comfortable. The hotel is right on the harbour, 10 minutes from the ferry to Kalymnos, just what we wanted.

Quiet rooms, nice outlook, clean surroundings and met late at night by the owner.
