I hate to give bad reviews, and I always share feedback with the staff and/or managers as well. For a hotel restaurant as swanky as Maia and the JWM, this was quite honestly disappointing for a few reasons. Mostly the price for the options and...lack of options. For a family of three to have a buffet and cost over $115 is absurd. Considering there were only scrambled eggs, no omelets, etc. Bacon was overcooked and other items seemed old and not refreshed. The continental breakfast items seemed better prepared, for packaged items. Our wonderful attendant was the best part of the experience. I would not eat again at this establishment unless they made for changes,More

Had breakfast there on 6/26/22. I have to use a cane to walk and therefore it was difficult to retrieve food from the buffet. Our server Kay followed me to the buffet and made a plate of what I wanted and returned it our table....If this is how the management has trained all their staff great. However, if Kay took it upon herself to go the extra mile fantastic. The buffet was large with many options and very good tasting.More

Maia is a restaurant located on the JW Marriot Marco Island Resort, there is indoor and covered outdoor seating available. I visited this restaurant for the breakfast offered while staying on the resort. It was quite busy in the morning, it appeared there was quite...the line. At the time I visited, the resort was not open to the public, but I do believe that has since changed. We only ate here once for breakfast during our stay. For breakfast, they offer an extensive buffet of options from pastries to cooked options such as omelets and pancakes. In addition to the buffet, you can order from a selective menu of more prepared entrees. All around a good dining experience for breakfast while staying in Marco Island. Price point for the buffet is on the higher side (closer to the $20-$40 per person range). I can’t recall the exact price when we visited.More

Breakfast was really awesome. We had breakfast here twice. Very pleased. Great food, great service, friendly staff, we had Yoelkys as our server both days she is amazing! Cooked to order pancakes and omelets were awesome. Scrambled eggs were perfectly moist. Loved ‘em! Breads, muffins,...fruits and oats all items were great. Juices weren’t freshly squeezed there but boy they were good. Over all a big yes!More

$35 per person for buffet breakfast but great food. Helps if you have a daily food credit or free breakfast from staying in Sirene, then you can simply upgrade to the buffet for $10/person.

Excellent buffet. I get a discount based on my hotel status. I'm shocked people are writing bad review. The variety of food is excellent and my kids really enjoyed the chocolate chip pancakes that were cooked to order. Shrimp omelets were also great. Can't wait...to be back. This is a high volume restaurant at breakfast but they do a good job getting people in and out.More

4 of us ate at Maia in the JWMarriott for breakfast, it was horrendous, the eggs were fake, all fruit tasted like cardboard, nothing was hot, and our breakfast was 150.00, we almost soiled ourselves when we saw the bill, Don’t go, it’s the worst

Thank you Natalia and Dolly! Great breakfast .Very clean. Options to eat inside or out . Natalia and Dolly noticed my platinum elite status was not captured in the system . I guess the front desk was too busy at check in to remind us...of the benefits and upload it correctly . Thank you ladies. My husband was very pleased about the money you saved us.More

Our first trip for 2021 was better than expected. So many things have changed during this pandemic but our favorite restaurant was still there! Our favorite waitress was still there! Dolly with her mask on and smiling with her eyes as she serves us cheerfully....During this difficult time in our lives, we greatly recommend Maia for its cleanliness and friendly atmosphere. Dolly is the best. We love here and was happy to see that she is still there.More

Overwhelmed staff, not sanitized, allowed guests to touch utensils. I am by no means a WORRY WART about the virus but this was just unacceptable.

We go to Marco Island every year and stay at the JW Marriott or Crystal Shores (Marriott timeshare property down the street). Regardless of which property we visit, we always stop at Maia. The food is always excellent as is our favorite waitress, Dolly. She...is pleasant, attentive and should be the JW Marriott Goodwill Ambassador.More
