Maya Beach Experience

Wow, I LOVE this place! 😍😍😍 Such a chic, hip and calm place! I think it's better to spend a whole day there rather than going to other private beach in the coastal region. It's worth for paying for the whole experience!! We hired two beds and a umbrella. They have both swimming pools and a beach. The staff are very attentive and work hard on cleaning and managing the place. The water is crystal clear, the food is amazing and the service is great. 👍

We went to Maya Beach twice this week because after the first day we enjoyed it so much with the service from Francesco, we came back a second day and everyone welcomed us back! The service was great, Francesco is such a nice person and the rest of the staff there is so friendly as well. Definitely a go to location and definitely ask for Francesco and say Tonino recommended!

We came at night for the party on a Saturday. Basically the road to get there is extremely dangerous because it’s steep, narrow, and has no lights. The price to get a table is extremely overrated for what it is. We got there at around 10:30 pm and the show and music really started at about 11:45 pm. However, for someone from Beirut, the party was not that interesting. We ended up leaving early. Over all, it was not worth it for us. I would not visit again.

If I was basing my review on location and view alone it would be a solid 5/5, but there is much more to it then that! (I’d also give a 3.5 if I could but Google doesn’t allow it) The hotel itself was stunning, from the balcony view on to the sea, to the room aesthetic and decor of the outside pool area. However a few things let the stay down. Pros: 1. View - the view is insane, the general scenery and sunset are beautiful 2. The included breakfast is really great (fresh fruit, pastries and then a menu selection such as omelette, eggs Benedict, pancakes etc.) we had lunch and it was expensive but the quality and quantity was decent 3. Pool was beautiful, if you can get up and in the pool for when it opens at 10am you’ll have the space to yourself for a good half hour, even on a busy day. The main pool was also nice and clean during our stay. 4. Beds, very comfy & generally the room feels very relaxing and chilled. Every room has a sunset, sea and pool view which is great 5. The staff at the front desk were very helpful, and the waiting staff serving the beds were very attentive. 6. Plenty of room to park your car, albeit a tricky descent down the cliff side to get to it - but perfectly manageable and not a paid car park which is more typical in the region. 7. Great location if you want to travel around to sorrento, capri, even the amalfi coast isn’t far by car if you have one available Cons: 1. When we arrived our room wasn’t up to the cleanliness standards you’d expect for the price you pay. The floor was covered with what looked like the previous guests’ head hair & pubes as well as one towel that wasn’t as clean as we would hope for 2. The outdoor area the morning after Maya’s weekend parties wasn’t great. Glasses and rubbish left and not cleaned until later in the day - again when you’re paying the price to stay there you expect better 3. The front desk and waiter staff were mainly very pleasant and friendly. The bar staff on the other hand were rude and ignored us on a few occasions, albeit we don’t speak Italian very well so there may have been a language barrier 4. For a Malibu and coke + a bottle of beer we paid €45 (madness) on the party nights All in all we really enjoyed our stay, it was just a few things that tainted the stay. If you’re looking for an extremely ‘instagrammable’ experience and aren’t too fussed about cleanliness then this is for you. If I was to recommend this place I would say come during the midweek when there are no evening events and enjoy the beauty and luxury of the location.
