Кипр - впечатлил! Cyprus is amazing!

Only 2 weeks since we returned from Cyprus, and so far everything is so clear before our eyes, as if only yesterday we flew away from there. I'll start with how we arrived early in the morning in Paphos. Everyone knows that check-in starts at 12-2 pm, so it was a little upsetting that we would suddenly have to wait until that time and hang out without a place, but this did not happen. After we were brought to the hotel, we were met at the airport in an organized manner, it took about 10 minutes to get to the hotel (because the arrival was in Paphos), after filling out the guest card, we were settled in a free room (the room was standard, that is, everything was ), enough to relax after the flight and immediately be able to use all the services of the hotel. Without waiting for 12 o'clock, we were settled in our room, where they brought the third bed (it's like our folding bed, but with a large and thick mattress - there were no inconveniences throughout all the days). The room is ordinary, most importantly, everything worked, with a side view of the sea, you could admire the sea on one side, on the other - the city and endless take-offs and landings of planes, daily cleaning, change of linen was every three days, but it did not bother. On the first day they brought wine and fruit to the room, as new guests - a little, but nice! At the expense of food, of course, there are comments, because everything is monotonous from day to day, but it is impossible to stay hungry - this is a fact! You just get bored with the monotony, I personally lacked Russian first courses (well, I'm not used to puree soup). . . Enough fruits, sweets, plenty to choose from. There were no problems with drinking either, for every taste and color, and if you speak English, then you can agree on your own drink, what to pour and in what proportions. The contingent is mostly foreigners, speech is heard in all sorts of languages, I was very pleased with this. I practically did not hear Russian speech, so the echoes on the beach were heard. Well, the beach and the sea are magnificent! A wonderful sandy beach, on which it is pleasant to walk barefoot both during the day and in the evening, a gentle entrance to the sea, the main thing is to go far to the depths, and whoever wanted to swim and jumped from the pier, the sea was very warm, even if it caused algae, but it’s so trifle. Therefore, we sat in the water for hours and got such a buzz! When the sea was stormy, the bay saved a lot, there was practically no wave to the shore. And walking along this bay in the evening is a pleasure! There were inconveniences with sunbeds, because they need to be taken at 7 am, otherwise you can be left without them, but again, how great it is to take a walk at such a time - silence, birds sing, fresh air! Of course, there were not enough sunbeds for some period, apparently, there was a high occupancy, but after a couple of days it was possible to find free sunbeds under a wonderful palm tree, in the shade after dinner. There are very few Russian-speaking staff, so advice for those who do not speak English - take a phrase book, it will help! There is a Russian girl at the reception - Angela, if you need something, for example, wake up, call a car or just ask for details about the hotel, catch the days when she works, there is one Russian girl in the bar (I saw it once), there are maids on the floors, who will prompt and guide you, in restaurants there are a couple of people who understand and speak Russian. We had no difficulties with this, and if questions arose and we could not explain ourselves even with the help of fingers, then these people immediately came and everything was resolved. Animations are minimal, the animators themselves behave very unobtrusively, tactfully. Mini-discos were arranged for children every evening, although everything was not in Russian, but in the lobby of our hotel on certain days in the evenings the girl played the piano, the next day she sang, in the neighboring hotel (Riu Cypria Bay) there was both karaoke and a disco. But we weren’t interested in it, there was enough daytime rest, and in the evenings we just wanted to sit on the balconies, take a walk along the alleys along the coast, and if we were really tired of everything, we went outside the hotel, where there are also bars, restaurants, shops and many other pleasant for walking walking places (at first it was unacceptable for them to drive on the left, but over time they got used to it). In conclusion, we were satisfied with both the island as a whole and the hotel. A lot of positive emotions, pleasant memories. Cyprus is a place where you can relax quietly and calmly. Calm, open and friendly resort is ideal for all categories of people and for those who do not like crowded beach!! !
