I was wondering where to go on vacation. I wanted to go to Greece, but the vacation was running out, and the visa to Cyprus was done in a day. Here she went. . . Luckily, it turned out cheaper. True, for this money - you can relax in Europe - a much better place. So we landed and they sent us to the bus - they said your Panas hotel (some not good associations immediately surfaced). While we were driving, nature reminded us of dry, withered Turkey. Along the way, they brought other tourists to 5 and 4-stars, it became more and more scary for us - What is our 3-star ? . Pleasantly surprised that he was on the first line. Settled immediately, but the staff chatted in English, you will not immediately understand. While walking to the room - the territory is green, not like outside, two-storey houses with 4 rooms each. Standard room-bed, lamps, shower, toilet, table, fridge (reminds me of a boarding house). Okay, things sorted out, went to see where the sea with white sands. On the way we met a small pool, a lot of noisy young people from England, Germany (there are few Russians). It's great that sitting by the pool, you can see the sea - just a stone's throw away. But there is no beach opposite - some cobblestones and stones. A little to the side outside the hotel, about 2 minutes and a small beach-sand with stones mixed (Lehak and an umbrella $ 5). The entrance to the sea is bad rocky, and we were told in the travel agency white sandy beaches and sandy sunset. And here it's not like that at all. Especially you can’t swim, where knee-deep, where shoulder-deep, constantly touching the stones sticking out with your foot (not a pleasant pleasure). We found the only way out - we bought mattresses and swam on them. And now about food: they took all inclusive. I’m all-around - I didn’t starve, but the choice is small, and the staff, the Cypriot men, are somehow eternally dissatisfied, either whistling your device clean, or shifting the salt shakers of their table to the next one. but to explain to them - it was not possible, they don’t understand a damn thing (or pretend). In general, the staff did not inspire exactly. 7 days flew by - even the last two I wanted to go home. And in general, I had a good rest - I always try to think about the good, even when it’s not very good around. And to go or not - decide for yourself, but I don’t want to go to Cyprus anymore. The best countries - wait for me!
