Mayia Exclusive Resort & Spa

Set on the quieter southeast coast of Rhodes, Mayia Exclusive Resort & Spa is an adults only, all inclusive retreat that leans into space, privacy and uninterrupted sea views, delivering a far more composed and polished take on the all inclusive format.

The layout is built to keep everything open and outward facing, with long pools, wide terraces and low, contemporary buildings all aligned towards the Aegean. It gives the resort a calm, controlled feel, where nothing competes for attention and the setting is always front and centre.

What makes it work is the consistency. Every part of the resort feels connected, so you move through it naturally rather than needing to navigate it.

Staying

The rooms, suites and bungalows follow the same approach, with clean, well-balanced interiors and outdoor space that actually shapes the stay. The Junior Suite Sea View and Deluxe Bungalow Sea View both hold their own, with strong positioning and a proper sense of openness.

The step up comes with the water-based categories. The Junior Suite Swim Up Sea View is one of the best balanced options, giving direct access to the pool without losing privacy, while the Mayia Suite with Private Pool Sea View is the one to go for if you want a more self-contained setup that keeps everything on your own terms.

Dining is where the resort quietly stands out for an all inclusive. The Waterfront Main Restaurant anchors things, but the strength comes from the spread of alternatives, with Thymari, Al Dente and Wasabi each offering a distinct shift in style without feeling like repetition.

During the day, the All Day Comfort Restaurant and Street Food Corner keep things relaxed, while the bars carry more weight than usual, particularly the Champagne Bar, which adds a more refined edge in the evenings and lifts the whole experience beyond a standard all inclusive feel.

Experience

The rhythm of the place is simple and deliberate. Time moves easily between the main pools, the beach and your own terrace, with enough space across each area to keep it feeling calm rather than crowded.

There’s activity available if you want it, but this is a resort that works best when you let it slow you down rather than trying to fill the day.

Wellness

The spa sits comfortably within that slower pace, with treatment rooms, hammam and sauna providing a proper shift in atmosphere without feeling disconnected from the rest of the resort.

Where

Located in Kiotari on Rhodes’ southeast coast, the resort is approximately 59 kilometres from Rhodes International Airport.
