This hotel is beautiful and new. The lower rooms have a large slider that opens to the pool. The rooms seem to be all the same inside, and very nice with a comfortable king bed with comfortable pillows and a large couch for sleeping, a large TV with a good selection of channels, a good size bathroom with two sinks and a large shower and a separate water closet. A small fridge in the room. All personnel were exceptionally friendly, a large breakfast buffet came with the stay. Very close to the airport and Chios Town. Very large, really amazingly beautiful pools with a bar in the middle, an are with a fire pit, a small workout room, can’t say enough.

Während unseres Urlaubs auf der griechischen Insel Chios haben wir zwei Tage im Hotel Royal Pearl Island verbracht. Generell handelt es sich um ein Mittelklassehotel. Wir sind früh im Hotel angekommen, allerdings erhielten wir unser Zimmer erst um 15:00 Uhr, während beim Check-out um 11:00 Uhr direkt die Abreise erwartet wurde – das war etwas anstrengend. Glücklicherweise durften wir den Pool und die anderen Gemeinschaftsbereiche vorab nutzen, wofür wir dem Hotel danken möchten. Da das Hotel noch recht neu ist, gibt es verständlicherweise einige Mängel. Das wichtigste und kritischste Problem ist jedoch, dass der Boden rund um den Pool extrem rutschig ist. Das ist ein ernstes Sicherheitsrisiko, das bei Ausrutschen zu schweren Verletzungen führen kann. Dass das Hotelmanagement dies anscheinend noch nicht bemerkt hat, ist ziemlich besorgniserregend. Alles in allem ist das Hotel ganz in Ordnung und für einen Kurztrip von 2 bis 3 Tagen durchaus ideal.

“A beautiful property with huge potential, but details fall short of a 5-star standard”

Overall, we had a pleasant stay at Royal Pearl Island. Being a very new hotel, you immediately notice the fresh atmosphere and high-end feel. It features two large pools and a great pool bar where you can relax with a drink. I also appreciated that the team genuinely cares about making a positive impression, but several operational issues made me question whether the hotel lives up to the exclusive price point it aims for. Here are a few key areas where management needs to step up: Pool Maintenance: One of the pools had a green algae issue and was closed in the evening. While it didn't ruin our night as we don't swim late, it is completely unacceptable for a high-end resort—especially for guests paying top tier for swim-up suites. Food Quality: Breakfast was decent, but the main buffet is far too basic for a €400–€500/night property. The à la carte options lacked soul—not terrible, but certainly not memorable or flavorful. Service Training: You can feel the staff lacks experience. We constantly had to hunt down waiters for drink refills; half the time, we finished breakfast without any drinks being offered or refilled. Privacy: Most doors in the resort have proper locks, yet the public poolside restroom door didn't lock at all—not a great feeling when using the facility. Housekeeping: Our Nespresso pods weren't replenished on the second day, even after I specifically asked housekeeping for them. Room Decor: The rooms are spacious, modern, and cozy, but the walls are completely bare with zero decoration. It leaves the room feeling unfinished. Spa: The spa area is surprisingly small for a resort of this scale. Uncomfortable Staff Encounter: When I asked the lifeguard a simple question about the sun loungers, he randomly warned me not to steal towels or I’d be charged €60. It was an awkward, off-putting moment that made me feel profiled as a thief. Checkout vs. Breakfast Timing: Checkout is at 11:00 AM, but breakfast runs until 11:30 AM. Having to check out before eating breakfast felt unnecessary and frustrating. Safety Hazard: The pool ceramics are extremely slippery. I slipped while entering the pool and was lucky to catch my balance—had I fallen, my entire vacation could have been ruined. This is a severe safety hazard that needs immediate attention. The Bright Spots & Verdict: On a positive note, we received wonderfully kind service from the bartenders, Baha and George. Additionally, reception kindly allowed us to use the resort facilities after checking out while we waited for our late ferry to Mykonos. Royal Pearl Island really could be a true pearl, but management urgently needs to invest in staff training and minor property upgrades to justify its luxury positioning.
