I want to share my impressions of the holiday.
Hotel room. The hotel is located almost on the outskirts of Ayia Napa, 15-20 minutes walk to the center. But for us, this had its advantages - silence and walks in the fresh air every evening. Hotel after renovation, everything is clean, not worn out. We arrived at 2:00 pm, so we were seated immediately. The reception staff is quite friendly. Room on the second floor overlooking the sea. Everything is new, clean. There are euro sockets in the room, so you need to buy adapters in the supermarket for 1.95 euros per piece. The room is cleaned every day, bedding and towels are changed every four days, as well as shampoos and shower gels are added. We sometimes left 1 euro for cleaning, but nothing changed from this, they cleaned and so it was normal. If you want to change your towel more often, then one towel = 1 €. By the way, with towels from the room you can go to the beach. The safe in the room is paid, 2 euros per day, it is necessary to pay only for the entire period of stay at the hotel. The fridge is the same. Because we really needed the Internet, then we paid for Wi-Fi for a week of 20 euros. The room almost did not work at all, tk. one router to the news of the hotel, went to the reception. I will say right away that we were in Cyprus for the first time and we liked this principle of relaxation, without reference to the hotel.
Nutrition. The food is good, maybe a little monotonous, but the choice of dishes is large, so you can alternate and eat something new every day. Drinks are free for breakfast only. For lunch and dinner only for an additional fee. For example, a glass of juice is 2 euros. Sweet choice is not great, once there were muffins, once some kind of jelly. From fruits - every day watermelons, sometimes melons, plums, oranges, grapefruits. We sometimes changed dinner for lunch to eat at a restaurant in the city in the evening. For lunch, not a buffet, but a menu of several dishes to choose from. The restaurant staff is also quite friendly. The hotel has one rectangular pool, where you can swim until 18.00, we were there a couple of times during the holidays. One bar near the pool, all drinks are paid. There is a supermarket at the bottom of the hotel where we bought water, ice cream, etc.

Beach. From the hotel to the beach, 5 minutes walk, back longer, because. climb the hill))))) The beach is common, urban, not small, clean. Sun loungers and umbrellas for a fee, 2.5 euros per piece. You can bring your own bedding and an umbrella, there is a place for them too. Prices on the beach are more than in the supermarket, for example, two ice creams 7 euros. The sea is warm, there is sand at the bottom, no slippers are needed. Sometimes a storm brought algae, but beach workers cleaned the water with special nets. We went to Nissi Beach, this is the opposite part of the city. Large sandy beach, shallow cove. The beach is aimed at young people.
Excursions. We bought an excursion on the yacht Capitan Marco on the waterfront. The price is 20 euros per person. Walk along the coast towards Famagusta with two stops for swimming, lunch. The ghost town can only be seen from a distance. We swam up to caves, grottoes, etc. In general, it's interesting. We also rented a Jumbo 320 ATV. The price is 80 euros per day. This is with a full tank of gas. Driver's license as a deposit. Every evening we went for a walk in the center of Ayia Napa. There are a lot of different cafes, restaurants, clubs, souvenir shops, an amusement park, in general, it is very easy to find entertainment. We had dinner several times at the Limanaki restaurant, which is near the piers. We also ordered a fish plate (30 euros for two) and a fish meze (about 45 euros for two). Huge portions, didn't even eat it all. Cocktails from 3.5 euros. Everywhere we were, the waiters spoke excellent Russian! Souvenirs can be found for any income, for example, fridge magnets for 1 euro)))))
In general, we really liked the rest - bright, not boring, active! We made one conclusion - you can go to a cheaper hotel in Cyprus, but take with you more money, which you definitely have something to spend on, and most importantly, a good mood and a positive attitude!
