Первый раз на Кипре! Отель порадовал! First time in Cyprus! The hotel made me happy!

Excellent hotel! We rested in July 2009. The rooms are cozy and clean. Service is ok. We took a sea view, I advise everyone. A non-sea view is a view of a busy street with speeding cars - not a very pleasant prospect on vacation. The hotel is located about 3 km from the old city (measured on Google, so the data is different about the distance), we went there on foot 1 time, it's nice to walk, and there is an ancient fortress. The city center is even closer, 1.5 km. The only negative is that there are no discos and clubs nearby. The nearest ones are about 2 km away, we went there by taxi and went on foot, which is also quite realistic. That is, it turns out the city center in one direction, the center of the tourist zone in the other. Discos are located near the Hotel Appolonia, 1 free and 2 paid. There are few young people in the hotel itself, mostly couples, and so - families, pensioners.
A huge plus of the hotel is its own beach with free sunbeds and umbrellas. There are few such hotels in Cyprus. There is a small sandy beach with gray-brown sand, there are many sun loungers on the grass, it is also pleasant to lie there.
The food was just amazing! Breakfast is always the same, a standard set, but tasty and nutritious. Dinners have always been different. 2 times a week, not a buffet, but served by waiters, this is called the Cypriot and Latin night with the appropriate cuisine and music. Therefore, there was not even a need to go to a restaurant, we tried the local cuisine at this dinner. The rest of the days there was a buffet, a table, but also different cuisine, Italian, mixed. Very tasty cakes. All drinks at dinner are paid.

Usually in the evening the pianist plays the piano and the woman sings. When the Cypriot night is something local dances. Well, this is all the animation, there are no events during the day. It doesn't seem to be developed here.
From the excursions we took a donkey safari and the Grand Tour of Cyprus. Donkeys are, of course, funny. There is a whole farm with different animals, they teach how to manage donkeys, then everyone rides them, then dinner and local dances. If you wish, you can purchase the rights to manage a donkey with your photo. Fun overall! Grand tour - a trip to the mountains, deep into the island. For general development, you can go. In principle, the nature there is not rich, there is little greenery, since the sun is 340 days a year, the mountains are not very impressive. On the way, they tell a lot about Cyprus, they bring it in for tastings, in the mountains themselves, there is an ancient monastery.
I can’t say that I really want to go to Cyprus again, it’s always more interesting to travel to new places.
In general, we are satisfied with the rest, the sea-sun is always a thrill!
