My husband had to take a vacation this year in November. We thought for a long time where we should go, so that the flight would not be long, but at the same time we also wanted to swim in the sea.

I called the Russian Express company, last year my husband and I used their help when we went to Israel. Thought maybe back to Israel? To the Red Sea. We were offered to think about Cyprus, they said that this year there is a very warm autumn there and they recommended a hotel. I looked at the weather forecast on the Internet, and we decided.

The tour was booked by my husband, directly on the company's website. There is a very simple booking form, and I could do it. We received confirmation, made a remote payment and sent us all the documents for the tour by e-mail.

We flew with Ural Airlines, everything was on time, without delays, the food was good on the flight, juices, water, only coffee - instant from a bag ... but you can drink coffee at the hotel upon arrival. And here we are.

The resort for me and my husband is new - Paphos. Although we flew to Larnaca, we did not go to Paphos for very long. The road is not boring. The guide on the way spoke interestingly about Cyprus, so the time flew by.

The hotel that we were advised - Pioneer Beach 4 *. I want to note that the level of service and food in this hotel is 5*. The hotel left a very pleasant impression, quality, delicious food. The hotel does not accept children under the age of 16. And this creates a certain comfort for tourists like us. We had not a standard room, but a room of an improved category, it included a gazebo with two sun loungers. Attached to the number. Also, as a compliment from the hotel, guests of rooms like ours can have breakfast in a separate restaurant room, which is small and creates a sense of privacy.

You can also use the sauna and steam room for free.

I also note that there were many foreigners in the hotel and few of our compatriots (we understood that Paphos is different from other resorts of the island in this).

On the beach - umbrellas and sun loungers. The hotel provides beach towels. When we read about Paphos before the trip, the comments about the beaches, or rather about their absence, were very disturbing. In our hotel, it was possible to enter the sea from the shore, there is also a pontoon from which you can go down the ladder into the sea. By the way, we were really lucky with the weather. We sunbathed and swam in the sea every day.

Buses run to the city of Paphos, but you can also walk - my husband and I love to walk, and we walked to Paphos along the promenade along the sea for about 40 minutes at a leisurely pace in one direction. The city is very interesting. There is something to see. There are also museums and shops. I remember very much how we watched the sunsets, sitting in a small cafe on the embankment.

Of the excursions - we went only to Aphrodite.

And we also took lunch - in a tavern in the mountains, where we were fed traditional Cypriot dishes for several hours. Very tasty, but too much. But, in any case, if there is an opportunity, I highly recommend taking both the excursion and this lunch in a tavern in the mountains.

All in all, it was a great vacation! Thanks Cyprus. Thank you Russian Express!
