Came with a group of 6 people. This greatly saved the holiday from boredom! )))
HOTEL.
Modest, but in principle this is enough in Cyprus, because the rooms are decent, there is a medium-sized pool, the sea, etc. "supermarket" 10-15 minutes walk.
There were annoying factors:
1. None of the 3 rooms had air conditioning.
That is, he did not cool the air, but slightly moved it in the mode of a conventional fan.
2. There are many small reservoirs in Larnaca, so mosquitoes are in abundance.
The fumigator is a fairly effective tool, but it does not work well, because you have to constantly keep the balcony door open.
3. Lack of a refrigerator in the room.
Drinking in your room is a more interesting topic than 0.33 beer at a bar for 1.5 pounds.
FOOD.
On the island, high prices in "public catering":
2 glasses of beer (~ liter) and a salad with canned tuna meat - 10 pounds in a cafe on the waterfront of Paphos.
With fast food there was a negative experience in Larnaca:
drank beer at Cafe Neon on the Finikoudes embankment, I wanted pizza from the neighboring Pizza-Hut to go with it
the smallest pizza cost 3.5 local pounds - ordered with a thin flatbread.
Served dry.
The dough turned into a kind of cracker, in the center of which are traces of tomato paste, a little melted cheese and a few thin slices of salami.
on the excursion "In Search of Aphrodite":
The guide warned: “At the end of the dinner in the restaurant, don’t leave right away - wait for the fruit! »
Bring on the 4th:
on a tea saucer 1 banana and half an apple, cut for 4 people.
I have not come across such stinginess anywhere in the 26 countries of the world that I have visited!
TOURS.
there is no point in looking for inexpensive options in city travel agencies; at your request, the same brochures from Sea Dream and Argonaftis monopolists appear on the table, which guide your hotel guide.
Unfortunately, this is not Turkey or Egypt, where the price of an excursion in the city can be half that of the same offered at the hotel.
I advise history lovers to go to the Turkish part of the island - the heritage is best preserved there, the Turks were not fools, they knew which part of the island to occupy!
Worth seeing is the St. Hilarion, besides this you will see Belapais Abbey
and in Kyrenia - the citadel of the Cypriot kings from the French family of Lusignan.
And in the Greek part (excursions "In Search of Aphrodite", Pafos-Kurion) - I was not impressed, fragments and fragments remained from the temple of Aphrodite, Pafos-Kurion is so-so!
Catching octopuses = 28 pounds.
At 9 at sea, at 14.30 - already in the port.
During this time, we try to catch octopuses, change the location 4 times.
About 30 people caught 6 small octopuses per bottom. No one prepares them locally.
For 15 bucks in Alanya, the same boat trip, but the view from the sea changes and takes longer!
If they ask me “Where should I go for the first time: to Turkish Alanya or to Larnaca in Cyprus? ", then my firm answer will be" to Alanya! » About excursions - I wrote earlier, the prices for drinks are the same, but the nightlife and the level of institutions are much higher in Alanya!
One "Robin Hood" is worth something, and there's nothing to say about the "Auditorium"!
In general, I do not regret that I went to Cyprus.
But once was enough, more here - not a foot, for repetition there is completely no motivation!
