go and stay...
Ayia Napa. end of June 2010
Why Cyprus? On this island there is a paradise called Ayia Napa, which has been one of the most party places in the world for a decade now. The vibrant nightlife there is combined with a wonderful beach holiday and interesting trips around the island. Believe me, there is something to see))
I’ll decide right away: 2 young people, FLorida Beach **** hotel, breakfast + dinner, budget for 2.1200 euros
I can’t say anything bad about the hotel, the rooms were cleaned every day, towels were changed often, the staff was helpful and polite. They speak Russian a little) The food was also at a good level, we did not suffer from disgust with our chef. By the way, I noticed that many Russians compare everything with Turkey. they say that the food is better there, the staff is more polite and in general the sun is greener. Basically, it is of course women. don't compare! it's a completely different country. In Africa, in general, it is much worse, they die of hunger right on the street.
In short, the breakfasts were delicious and the dinners very hearty. And the staff smiled at us 23 hours a day, while we were awake.
We dined exclusively in local restaurants, pubs, cafes that were nearby. the price level is approximately the same, the maximum expansion is in euros. The menu is very varied, we haven't even tried a tenth of everything. Fish meze - 17 euros per person was our most expensive lunch. With drinks at 3 euros for a glass of fresh juice and something else came out at 50 euros. but it was just a gastronomic apocalypse.
Usually fit in 30 for two. A good steak costs 12, so a whole grilled squid. + water or juice 3 euros. There is Mexican cuisine, chicken fajitas + salad and potatoes -10 euros. But I ate just from the heart. In short, if you dine in a restaurant, then for 30 for two you will be provided with a cool dinner.
A little more about the cafe. Almost everywhere there is WIFI, if you sit in a cafe, you can use it for free, they give you an access password.
So who can not live without the Internet, welcome.
During special hours, usually during the day, you can try cocktails and beer at bargain prices. Anyone for 2 euros. It's like in a store.
Connection. Upon arrival, be sure to buy a local MTN SIM card. It costs 12 euros, on the balance sheet 5 euros. 20 sms as a gift. Calls to Russia are very cheap compared to roaming. for 2 minutes gave about 50 euro cents. many of the hotel called by cards from a payphone, maybe even cheaper, but I did not recognize.
Rental. You can even rent a helicopter on the island. but this is subject to rights. And so everyone takes scooters, buggies, cars. The prices are reasonable, you must take the right, otherwise you will bite your elbows, like me. I had to take a bike for 8 euros per day, but I also polished the roads pretty well. ATV rental will cost about 30 euros per day, a cool thing, you can rent it on every corner.
in general, there are a lot of rentals, do not hesitate to ask)). cars can be viewed online. But we must keep in mind that the movement is like in England, so if the experience is 37 years at KRAZ, then it is better not to take a wheelbarrow).
Where to go. For God's sake, don't listen to what the hotel people tell you. As a rule, their opinion is complete crap, unless they are best friends. Since we didn't have a car, we took a full day excursion to Kykkos Monastery. It was just awesome. there are such views, leave the excursion behind, go down from the well-established paths and you will want to stay in these mountains forever. I didn't regret it. In general, there were positive reviews about all the excursions, but the best thing is to rent a car and slowly drive around the island in a couple of days. +500% to rest I can guarantee.
Night life. It's better to just type agia-napa in English in u-tube if I'm not mistaken, and you will understand everything.
Pay attention - young people go everywhere and offer discounts if you go to them. use it safely, they can give 4 for 2 cocktails or make significant discounts. look at the place, but be sure to try. for 14 euros we were given 4 cocktails and 4 tequilas)). was tin.
There are places where Russian Teremok and Red Square hang out. We went once, but did not like it very much, there is no atmosphere at all. Believe me, there is something to compare. But that's up to you. )
It’s just hard to write more, my fingers are tired out of habit.
