AX ODYCY Outlets Shine in Tripadvisor’s Travellers’ Choice Awards 2025

We are delighted to share that various outlets part of AX ODYCY Hotel’s destination have once again been recognised for culinary and experiential excellence on a global scale, with four of our outlets receiving prestigious accolades in the Tripadvisor Travellers’ Choice Awards 2025.

Our signature fine dining restaurant, Minoa Mediterranean Fusion, has been named among Tripadvisor’s Best of the Best 2025 in the category of Best Fine Dining in Europe. This honour places Minoa among the top 1% of restaurants worldwide out of over 8 million listings – a remarkable achievement that reflects the restaurant’s dedication to creativity, refinement, and unforgettable dining experiences.

The Travellers’ Choice Awards Best of the Best is Tripadvisor’s highest recognition, awarded to establishments that receive a high volume of exceptional reviews over a 12-month period, combined with an editorial evaluation process. For Minoa, this recognition affirms its position as one of Europe’s leading culinary destinations, blending Mediterranean traditions with modern sophistication.

In addition to Minoa’s landmark achievement, three more AX ODYCY outlets have received the Travellers’ Choice Award for 2025, which celebrates businesses ranked in the top 10% of listings on Tripadvisor worldwide:

• Luzzu Restaurant – The family-friendly seafront restaurant known for its Mediterranean favourites and relaxed atmosphere.
• Medusa Sky Bar – Our level 10 adults-only sky bar, where crafted cocktails meet panoramic views of Qawra’s coastline.
• Mamacita Latino Bar – A vibrant hotspot for Latin-inspired flavours, live music, and fiesta vibes.

Each of these outlets has been recognised for consistently delivering excellent service, food, and guest experiences as reflected in the positive reviews and ratings of the Tripadvisor community.
