I haven't been to a 3 star hotel for a long time. I am not writing to brag. And to the fact that this time we decided to save money, as we got involved in repairs, there was not much money left for rest.
As a result, we were promised that the hotel was “almost 4 *”, which, in general, is not far from the truth, although, of course, this is not the Mediterranean at all, in which we were on a previous trip to Cyprus.

This time we decided to choose another resort, as we have already been to Limassol. We went to another part of the island with light sands - Protaras. A bit far from everything, but given that we had already seen the island on the previous trip, we didn’t go anywhere much this time. Except in the neighboring Aya Napa. Compared to Aya Napa, our Protaras is just a village. There is essentially one street, and that's it. People walk back and forth, that's all the evening entertainment. We went to the fountains once, they are illuminated to the music. Recommended, enjoy.

The coolest thing is the sea. In Cyprus, it is generally special. Warm and clean. A wide beach of light sand, in contrast to the narrow Limassol and gray sand that looks like mud, of course, is much more pleasant, it feels like being on another island altogether.

So, back to the hotel.
We arrived in the morning. A charter flight from Domodedovo, exceptionally good service, everything was on schedule. Brought to the hotel, and had to wait. We were warned about this in Moscow, no problem. At first they gave us a terrible number, and we went to make a fuss. They offered to wait again. We waited. The next number was much better, but we understood its "charms" later - it went out to a noisy disco. In general, we slept under the air conditioner with the windows closed so as not to hear the noise. The view from the room sideways to the sea, watching the sunset with a bottle of wine has become our nightly entertainment.

The room is excellent, the furniture is good. The hotel itself is stylish, pleasantly surprised. In general, we have never been horrified by the "rest in 3 stars", we can safely recommend it as an inexpensive, but quite worthy option!!!
But in general, Cyprus is still the same. Delicious food, wine, the measured life of Cypriots and noisy resorts... a lot of Russians, a lot of sun. Although not so green. But the sea is warm. It's nice here in the summer too!
