Official Description

A short distance from Mastichari, the picturesque fishing village that is the island's second largest harbor, and steps away from an organized white sand beach with tranquil water that is ideal for families and water sports enthusiasts, sits the Gaia Palace that is everything you would expect in top quality holiday accommodation, dining, services and amenities. A hallmark of the hotel are its three swimming pools, impressive and tantalizing, beckoning guests to dive in for a swim, water games, to be refreshed or just relax. The fact that there are three main pools and three smaller children's pools means that there is a marked lack of crowing or noise at any given one. The large Olympic-size pool is reserved for water sports fans and those who want to swim laps, and has a separate adjacent children's pool for absolute safety; two smaller pools are dedicated to less intense swimming activity and in-pool relaxing, while each has its own adjacent children's pool as well. The Pool Bar completes the scene, offering refreshing juices and cocktails and a variety of snacks and tasty treats right next to the water. For visitors who prefer action-packed holidays, the Gaia Palace Hotel boasts a fully-equipped gym, basketball, volleyball and tennis courts, athletic and swimming games and competitions, fitness programs both in and out of the pools and on the beach, as well as a beach volleyball tournament. At the Gaia Palace, the fun doesn't stop when the sun goes down; it heats up even more with evening parties by the water and musical dance shows organized regularly.

Reasonable hotel with good service

31 Oct 2025
Exceptionally helpful services - I am disabled, and they made sure everything was just right for me without any fuss. Food decent enough, and reasonable choice. I have only one complaint - please tell the chef to abandon "Asian food night" - they have no idea how to cook Asian food and it was the one truly dreadful experience in the entire two weeks! One comment not related to the hotel, but this hotel is not anywhere near the 5 stars that it is listed as by the Greek Government, and the hotel tax is now getting wildly ridiculous. The extra tax amounted to 10% of my total two week holiday costs - including flights!Hotels are going to be priced out of reach at this rate.

AMAZING

31 Oct 2025
Had the best time, take no notice of the negative reviews, these people must come from another planet or be super privileged… Ok the wine isn’t the best but there is the option to purchase better bottles. The staff are top class, special thanks to Klaerd, Spiros and Ali behind the bar, top guys and Alexandria our housekeeper, so professional. The food is beautiful, for those who have said any different they are again at the wrong hotel for their standards. We have been to all the Greek Islands over the last 20 years and loved Gaia so much we booked to go again next year before we left (that speaks volumes) Thank you Gaia Palace, see you in 350 days ❤️

Great place

31 Oct 2025
I had an amazing stay at this hotel! The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful — especially my friend Nikos, who is simply the best! The room was spotless, comfortable, and well-equipped. The food was delicious and offered plenty of variety, and the overall atmosphere was perfect for relaxation. We also had so much fun at the bar with Ani and Klaerd, whose great sense of humor made every evening even better — they’re the best too! The hotel’s location right by the sea is just perfect. I highly recommend this place and would love to come back!

3 star at best!!

30 Sep 2025
I would not recommend Gaia Palace. This hotel is advertised as 5-star, but in reality, it’s no more than a 3-star experience. The bed was so uncomfortable that I barely slept the entire trip. My bathroom sink was broken and leaking, and the kettle didn’t work (these were fixed quickly). Around the hotel, areas were dirty and clearly neglected, with even the poolside toilet lid broken – basic facilities simply not being maintained. There was also a lingering smell of sewage around the hotel, which was unpleasant. The food was terrible – poor quality, little variety, and mostly lukewarm and bland. Glasses were always warm, so the drinks were too. If you don’t book ultra all-inclusive (an extra €25 per person per day), you’re limited to just a choice of three cocktails after 6pm, and no food or drinks are included at the beach. The snack bar food was also disappointing – something fresh would have been nice. The only positives were the pool areas, which were pleasant enough, and the drinks were okay. The staff were friendly and did their best, but their efforts couldn’t make up for the overall lack of quality and care. This is absolutely not a 5-star resort. At best, it’s a tired 3-star hotel that badly needs investment, maintenance, and improvement. Definitely not worth the money.
