5* Gaia Palace Hotel
Mastichari, Kos, Greece
The Gaia Palace Hotel's at the secluded end of the scale, in a countryside spot that's close to the beach.
This place is ideal if you're looking for some R&R time. It's out in the sticks, so the nearest beach is a peaceful sandy stretch that's off the tourist radar. It only takes five minutes to walk there, too.
When you're not sunning yourself, this place has plenty going on to fill in the gaps. There are sports courts, fitness classes and a minigolf course, plus chill out areas for teens and high-tempo hotel-run kids' clubs.
Location
Mastichari is a peaceful fishing village on the west coast of Kos. It’s a small, compact place with just 4 streets to get around. The locals pride themselves on the super-fresh fish that goes straight from the harbour to the friendly tavernas, as well as their laid-back, disco-free evenings. And they’re pretty chuffed with the sandy beach, too.

- 500m to the beach
- 15 minutes from KOS AIRPORT (by Coach)
