Nama Retreat

What can I say - most of the people who go here really want to keep it a secret so that it isn’t fully booked when they want to go back and I totally get that. An amazing hotel owned by a wonderful family who make you feel welcome from the moment you arrive to the moment you leave. We had read the reviews of the wonderful baskets for breakfast and they were even better than described. A wonderful treat every morning with enough left over to feed you at lunch and snacks throughout the day. Nothing was too much trouble for Jenny and her husband, George at the bar and her daughter on reception and son in law who helped out at the bar when needed. Another thanks to her son who gave us transport to and from the sunset cruise in Rhodes town and kept us well informed re pick up times and where to meet us. All in all you are treated like one of the family and although we are already looking forward to booking for 2026. Thank you again Jenny et al - look forward to seeing you again. Eilish and Scott. Thank you

A Peaceful Gem – Nama Retreat Nama Retreat is a truly special place, run by a warm and welcoming family and staff. If you’re looking for peace and quiet in a clean, well-maintained complex, you really can’t go wrong here. We stayed in one of the swim-up rooms, which was modern, spotless, and well-equipped for self-catering, with utensils, a microwave, fridge, and hob. Breakfast was a wonderful way to start the day. I enjoyed scrambled eggs and bacon, followed by a generous basket of fresh bread, ham, cheese, Greek salad, yoghurt, juice, and milk. There was also a daily surprise lovingly prepared by Jenny—anything from cake or fresh fruit to a traditional Greek treat. The pool area has plenty of sunbeds, especially as the shade gradually moves across the rooms. There’s also a bar open all day and into the evening, with very reasonable prices. Pastida itself is a small, quiet town with a well-stocked supermarket and around six restaurants that we found. Skalakia served delicious, traditional Greek food, and Gefira Taverna was quieter but equally good. Massa Grande, offering Italian and Mexican dishes, served pizzas so large we’d recommend going for the smaller size unless you’re sharing with a group! If I had to sum up Nama Retreat in just a few words, it would be: chilled, peaceful, beautiful—run by a truly lovely family who go out of their way to make your stay special. Andy and Julie

You will need to stay here to really appreciate how special Nama Retreat is. From the moment you arrive to the moment you leave you are spoilt beyond words by Jenny, Evgenios and their team. They all take hospitality to a new level. We have never felt so genuinely cared for - from perfect rooms, freshly prepared breakfasts with little treats daily, smiling faces every morning that set the tone for the whole day. Every request and question was met with a 100% can do response - the guest really does come first here! Stunning pool area. Cocktails/ drinks some of the best we have had. Location a short walk from centre where lots of great eating places can be found - lovely ice cream / treat parlour too. Supermarkets too. Visited Rhodes old town - a must do! Lalysos also lovely. All transport arranged seamlessly through Jenny❤️. We travel a lot but have never decided to rebook the same hotel - until now. We cannot wait to return. Thank you to everyone at Nama for giving us a much needed week of relaxation and care. You are truly special. Sally & Matt.

Made to feel like a family member from the start to finish. Can’t thank everyone enough for making our stay a beautiful memory. Can’t wait to come back. Such a lovely resort made all the better by the people. Keep the Jaegermeister on ice Evgenios. See you again soon love Helen and Gavin.

I don’t really know how to start explaining how relaxing our recent stay at Nana Retreat was. Without doubt , the owners Eugene and Jenny go above and beyond in ensuring that your holiday experience enjoyable and 5 star, from start to finish.

There is nothing I can add to the previous positive reviews. The hotel is just amazing, so calm & relaxing, with the best beds & pillows ever! Lovely family & staff, great breakfast…. We originally booked for 2020 - we know how that went….it’s taken us 5 years to rebook & it was definitely worth the wait. We weren’t sure why so many people return year after year, but we’ll be back in October, so I guess that says it all….
