Family friendly hotel. The territory is decorated in Mexican style. For children there is a wonderful playground. The location of the hotel is very good. Almost a minute's proximity and cafes, and restaurants, and shops. And the most important sights are the ancient monastery of the Virgin of Ayia Napa (Virgin of the Forest Valley) and the Museum of the Sea. The atmosphere in the monastery is just lovely. Antiquity, patios. Near the New Monastery, you can wear the belt of the Virgin. Meals - we had half board. Breakfasts are classic, European. Dinner was at the Nelia Beach Hotel, which is a 4-minute walk. Dinners were themed, the menu is quite varied and tasty.
The beach is 7 minutes walk. Past the hotel "Nelia Beach". Umbrellas and sun loungers are paid. They can also be taken at the Nelia Gardens Hotel at the reception.
The advantages of the hotel are the location, food for breakfast, you can also dine in the same restaurant where you had breakfast, and in the evening in the same bar-restaurant you can drink delicious Cypriot wine and listen to music; the hotel is quiet, calm; decent rooms, new furniture. All rooms have a kettle, coffee maker, microwave and toaster. The room is equipped with absolutely everything you need. Safe is paid. 26 in two weeks. We had a standard room. The view was on the playground. It wasn't noisy. You can safely use the iron in a special corner in the corridor.

Now about the shortcomings - for the first time in my life I saw that there were no towels for the pool at the reception. I tactfully expressed this dissatisfaction, since I speak English well. The tap water was also not allowed to drink, which is surprising, since Southern Cyprus is a member of the European Union. It can be bought at any store. But we still boiled it and drank tea with it. There is a crisis in Cyprus now, and it seems to me that they decided to make money on this. The same applies to refrigerators. They are also paid.
But, in general, as always, there are more advantages than disadvantages and the rest went very well. All issues were resolved fairly quickly. Our host "Attica Holidays" and guide Alla left a good impression. The three tours we took from them were very good. And a boat trip, a VIP Grand tour (you can also wear a sacred belt in the Kykkos monastery), and Paphos with Kourion.
If there are questions, I will be happy to answer.
