«Шикарный отель, Шикарное море, загадочный Кипр!» “Gorgeous hotel, Chic sea, mysterious Cyprus!”

We flew to Cyprus immediately after the wedding, our honeymoon was scheduled there. We arrived in Larnaca and after 35 minutes were already at the hotel in Ayia Napa. I really liked the country, the sea and the European service, and I definitely need to go there! Hotel: (by the way, there are old photos of the hotel on this site, new ones are on the hotel’s website) Excellent hotel, to be honest, I thought that instead of 5 stars they drew 3 by mistake, because The hotel does not deserve a 3 star rating. I was struck by the cleanliness and modernity of the lobby and reception. Everything is white, in marble, clean, the lobby is high-tech, the bar is illuminated with diodes in the evening, very beautiful. (they have a website of the hotel itself, I’ll be honest, what is in the pictures on the Internet, this is actually what it is). Russian speaking staff. The hotel is cozy, clean, the rooms are cleaned every day. The rooms are clean, bright, small but cozy, bathroom without mold with good plumbing, large and small towels. If you leave money and equipment in a room in a conspicuous place, no one will take anything, so I see no point in taking a safe. There is a free ironing room. The pool is clean (you can swim until 00-00 if you don't make noise, ) there is a children's pool, pin pong, darts and billiards (but billiards costs 1 euro). Day after day in the evening live music and animation. Food and drinks: Breakfast is almost monotonous but enough to head, there are always sausages, fresh bacon, meat, scrambled eggs, fried eggs, many salads, 4 types of cheese, 3 types of sausage, toast, many types of cereal, oatmeal porridge, 3 types of juice, and coffee machine that makes excellent coffee, I always took Latte . Lunches and dinners are always different and delicacies and restaurant dishes. The bar with liquor is open from 10 am, but it comes in handy especially at lunchtime, by the pool and for dinner : ))) you lead a beach lifestyle in Cyprus, because the food there is better than in 5 star hotels in other countries, even if you watch your figure, there are always vegetables and meat with steamed fish, shrimp, lamb, pork, chicken, veal and td. They arrange every day - the cuisine of different countries, to be honest, I didn’t want to go to restaurants, because after skipping dinners a couple of times and eating elsewhere, we realized that the hotel also serves excellent food. European alcohol and in any quantity (at all. ) You will be poured, as well as cocktails, for example, my favorite "Sex on the beach" in the hotel they make exactly the same as we have at home in bars and restaurants. If you take all inclusive, you will not regret it, especially if you have children. We did not spend even 50 euros for the first 3 days, because everything was great in the hotel. In the morning we went to breakfast at 7-40 to go to the beach in the morning, at 12-30 we left the beach and waited out the heat, just lunch started at 13.00, and then to the room and to the pool, and at 15-30 we were again on the beach . ) . Dinner from 19. Beach: All municipal beaches. It takes a maximum of 5 minutes to go to Nissi Beach (just cross the road), it's not annoying. The beach is gorgeous, clear azure clear water, white bottom, the water is cleaner than in the pool (see my photo), the sea is almost constant calm and the absence of any marine life I really liked. Opposite the island and boat rental there are always a lot of people, because there are free sunbeds and umbrellas, but if you go a little to the left in the Nissi Beach hotel, the crowd dissipates and everything is fine. 7 euros per day cost us 2 sunbeds and an umbrella, normal. A 27-year-old pelican lives on the beach of the Nissi Beach Hotel, and his name is Mary & # 61514; , everyone takes pictures with him, he does not bite. There is also the beach of the Adams Beach Hotel (3 minutes walk. A little closer), which is directly opposite ours - it is twice as expensive (greedy there 0 and we didn’t like it at all because entering the sea from the stairs due to the piles of stones at the bottom. Excursions : We didn’t take any excursions, we took the rights and rented a car for two days and ourselves traveled all over the southern coast of Cyprus to the extreme points (Cavo Greco Cape, Limassol is the “city of Russians”. Paphos, and where Aphrodite came out) The first day we left the hotel to the left at Cape Greco, which is nearby, we looked at the cape, then we stopped at a stunned beach in the mountains downhill, Google showed that this Konnos Bay Beach, where only Europeans rest. Next, we crossed the Turkish border by stopping in Famagusta and looking at the ruins of the port city and beautiful Church of St. Nicholas. In Famagusta, there is also a ghost town, the abandoned district of Varosha (bombed by the Turks in 1974). , is fenced off by military territory and there are Turks with machine guns, which the Turks made the second "Chernobyl, take a picture carefully from afar, otherwise uncles with machine guns will take the card from the camera and that's it. Turks in Cyprus do not speak English. They do not know how to use the tour. view of the beautiful sights. They just gave up on everything, although there is a beautiful fortress running through almost the whole of Famagusta. If you are planning to go to Famagusta or in general to the northern Turkish part of Cyprus, download exactly the "Turkish map of Cyprus", because the usual navigator of Cyprus does not give out - they are enemies there from the north. And take your passports, they will be needed at the border. Car insurance in the northern part of Cyprus does not apply and I had to buy it for 20 euros extra. on the same border
