From the moment we arrived, we felt completely at peace. The property is stunning—tucked away in a serene setting that makes you feel like you’ve found your own little paradise. It’s quiet, beautifully maintained, and the perfect place to relax and recharge. Tanya, the owner, personally greeted us and gave us a run down of the property and the town. She even arranged transport from the airport for us beforehand and gave us recommendations on excursions and things to do in the area. Isiah was also amazing. We loved talking to him everyday and also really appreciated his recommendations. One of the highlights was definitely the breakfast each morning. Everything was so fresh, flavorful, and thoughtfully prepared—it was the perfect start to our days. You could really taste the care and quality in every bite. The combination of the peaceful atmosphere, the welcoming vibe, and the amazing food made this stay unforgettable. I can’t recommend Gaia Villas highly enough and would return in a heartbeat! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/42fd78b9-eaa3-4ee1-b27b-3caf9fc69b9a-1759397927481.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8e100a6e-06d0-4a3d-a0dc-d9732071c70f-1759397859412.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/ce11a45a-cbe2-41f3-b235-d5395c6462d3-1759397898836.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Ashmira Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Jessica Nov 25, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Die Mitarbeiter waren super freundlich und hilfsbereit, ein wunderschöner Pool der 24/7 genutzt werden kann ##### Jessica Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Taylor Jan 22, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Un 10/10 Nos ha encantado.
