"We just returned from our fifth stay at Mayia Exclusive Resort & Spa and had a fantastic time again. The resort is beautiful, spacious and very clearly laid out. Around the swimming pools are plenty of wonderfully comfortable sunbeds, so you never have to get up early to reserve one. We hardly see anyone doing that either, simply because there is always enough available. What makes Mayia truly special are the employees. From the reception, the porters and housekeeping to the staff in the restaurants and bars: everyone is professional, genuinely friendly and always happy to help you. Nothing ever seems like too much effort. A special mention (at his own request 😉) for Renato, the bar manager. He always has a smile on his face, is always up for a joke, and rolls up his sleeves where necessary. The food is also a big plus point. There is plenty of choice, everything is fresh and the food is always very tasty, both in the buffet restaurant and in the à la carte restaurants. And we were especially happy that the oysters were back this year! 🦪 The drink selection is also very good, with a lot of choice and premium drinks from well-known brands. The music in the bars and restaurants is generally very good, and that also applies to the live music in the evening. The different artists are all very professional and know how to create a great atmosphere. We haven't experienced that at that level in other resorts. The weekly White Party is also very original and cozy. If we have to mention a few minor points: it would be nice if guests were pointed out that FaceTime can be quite disruptive to others at the swimming pools. And maybe guests who are visiting for the first time can get a brief explanation upon check-in on how to walk to the restaurant – that's not entirely obvious because the beautiful staircase invites you to go around 😉 But these are just small dots. We had another wonderful holiday at Mayia and are already looking forward to our sixth stay next year! Thanks to the entire Mayia team – until next year! ❤️"

"This was our fifth visit to Mayia, and we returned to celebrate our 20th anniversary. We had a lovely, comfortable and clean room, 2109, just as requested, and were delighted to find an anniversary card and gift waiting for us. Erjeta at reception had arranged those, our anniversary meal at Flame and our late checkout. She was wonderful. The spa treatments were the best we’ve experienced. Liza gave me a wonderful back and shoulder massage and an incredible facial, while my partner had Jovy. We both came away saying they were the best treatments we’d ever had. The service throughout the hotel was excellent. Vasilis at the pool bar was exceptional, and Renato, the bar manager, remembered us and greeted us every day. His cocktail session is great fun and highly recommended. We also really enjoyed the wine tasting; the presenter was very knowledgeable. Water gym was great too, with Samu keeping us entertained. The food was excellent at the Greek and Italian restaurants, both at lunch and in the evenings. The California burger at the street food restaurant is a must-try. Seafood night at the buffet was a real improvement on previous years: fresh, tasty and varied. Wasabi was a little disappointing this time. The food felt rushed, the service wasn’t as good, and it was difficult to get drinks, including water. We had some very cold, wet weather, but the staff were kind and attentive: a barman noticed I was cold and brought me a blanket at the main bar, and reception called the local chemist for me and arranged delivery of my medicated cream. All in all, the staff are what make Mayia such a special place. They are a credit to the hotel. We’d happily return for a sixth visit."
