Popular with young people, the spacious and often busy Majestic Spa Hotel is a mid-range property located right in the center of Laganas, offering guests easy access to the bustling nightlife as well as the nearby beach. The on-site restaurants and bars operate on an all-inclusive basis, but guests that choose not to pay for all-inclusive are close to a number of local dining options. A large pool area includes a separate children’s pool, and the on-site spa offers a variety of treatments as well as an indoor pool, sauna, Turkish bath, and fitness center. Rooms have balconies, but are somewhat underwhelming decor-wise, with tile floors, outdated polyester bedspreads, and standard wood furniture. Due to its location on the main strip and its popularity with young people, the hotel itself can be noisy, and many of the public areas are not always clean. The hotel also charges additional fees for a number of services, including pool towel rentals, air-conditioning, and Wi-Fi.
Scene
Bright, energetic, and casual, with a poolside bar
With a large sign and main entrance right on the busy strip, the Majestic Spa Hotel is easy to spot. A stone driveway leads to a peach-colored building with white archways, fronted by a few leafy trees. The spacious and bright lobby has lots of windows, white tile floors, and cream-colored walls; brown and red leather couches, a sleek black front desk, potted leafy trees, crystal chandeliers, and a couple of colorful paintings pull the room together. Tour and travel information is posted on a small board, and a public phone is available, as well as several computers and printers for guest use. The front doors lead right out onto the strip, while elevators and stairs lead to the guest rooms located in the main building. Pathways lead through small gardens to the other guest buildings, as well as the restaurants, bars, and pool area. Guests gather on royal blue lounge chairs around the pool deck, and at the hotel bar -- which has an indoor area with a wood bar and a pool table, and a covered terrace overlooking the pool, with brown wicker chairs and wood tables.
Location
Right in the heart of Laganas
Perfectly located for guests that want to experience the best of Laganas nightlife, this hotel is located right on the main strip, behind a large gym and between a number of restaurants, bars, clubs, shops, and entertainment options. Guests are a 10-minute walk from the beach, and a 12-minute drive from the Zakynthos International Airport. The central location puts most of Laganas within easy walking distance, but guests that want to explore more of the island will find a number of taxi cabs available, as well as a bus stop right in front of the hotel.
Rooms
Simple, with balconies and somewhat outdated decor
The rooms at this property are basic, with standard features and somewhat outdated decor -- brightly colored polyester bedspreads, neutral tile floors, and simple wood furniture. Some rooms are more modern than others, and depending on the location of the room, many can be noisy from the pool and the nearby restaurants, bars, and clubs. The hotel offers Double, Triple, and Quadruple rooms, all of which are fairly small, but guests with larger groups or that prefer more space should request the more spacious Family Rooms. Every room includes a private balcony or terrace, flat-screen TV, mini-fridge, and air-conditioning (for an additional fee). There is also an additional fee for Wi-Fi use. Bathrooms are olive green and white, with shower/tub combos and the hotel's own brand of bath products.
Features
Great location and a large pool area
The top feature at this property is the great location, with the busy nightlife of Laganas just steps away from the main entrance of the hotel, and the beach a short walk away. The large pool area is also popular, with a separate children’s pool as well as sprawling patio with lounge chairs and a snack bar. The on-site restaurant (serving Greek and international cuisine) and bars are only available for guests on the all-inclusive dining package, but the central location on the main strip gives travelers easy access to a number of dining and entertainment options. The property also includes game areas with billiards and ping pong tables, as well as a small, plastic outdoor playground for kids. The spa has a large menu of body and beauty treatments, and also includes a fitness center, sauna, Turkish bath, and an additional indoor pool. Public computers and printers, as well as televisions and games, are located in the lobby.
