Hotel berhampiran Sea Caves, Ayia Napa

Just returned from a 7 day stay at the king Jason. This hotel is outstanding, we’ve stayed at many 5 star resorts and can honestly say that the food & service at this resort is the best we’ve received. I can see why so many people return, on that note, we’re already planning to return another 2 times next year. Pros Food is outstanding, the ingredients are top quality and the flavours are out of the world Drinks service by the pool is 10/10, I did not move from my sun lounger for the whole stay, the bar staff work extremely hard and take drink orders every 15/20 minutes. Location 10/10 - 5 minute walk from the ***** and a stones throw away from the beach. Views 10/10 - the views are out of this world. I particularly loved the evenings when the sun was setting, the sky was beautiful. Staff 10/10 friendly, welcoming and always smiling, nothing is too much trouble, they go out of their way to provide the best service. 3 of the staff members even offered to go out of their way to buy my partner a bottle of spiced rum, Asen picked up a bottle after his day shift and brought it back the same evening. A special shout out to Asen, Dennis, Alex and Maria!! Rooms - spacious, clean, comfortable beds and gorgeous interior. Cons As an early riser, the rule of reserving sunbeds from 8am is far too late. We’d often go for a sunrise swim in the sea and would like to then relax on the sun loungers after, however, we didn’t feel comfortable or at ease when doing this due to the rule. It was clear that 8am is too late as you’d often see people relaxing on their sunbeds early morning. Although some people like to have a lie in on holiday, this doesn’t suit all. I think 7am would be a more appropriate time. The hotel has plenty of beds so if people would prefer a lie in then so be it, however, it’s not right to penalise the early risers. Drinks - my partner drinks spiced rum, however the hotel don’t offer this. We had to buy 2 bottles of rum to put behind the bar for our stay. Please consider adding a spiced rum to your drink selection Cleanliness- the hotel as a whole was immaculate, however, there is room for improvement. The stairs and walk ways to the room could do with more regular cleans and although the pool areas were cleaned each morning, the water overflow area around the pools needs attention, there was often debris in this area and the same debris was there for our whole weeks stay. Lastly, there was a green limescale around the pool area below the circle sunbeds which was also there for the full week. Entertainment- there was live music on a few of the nights which gave a lovely ambiance and set the scene. I’d love to see some kind of entertainment every evening. Although there were a few minor things that could be improved, we will definitely be returning and already counting down the days. Thank you for such a lovely stay, we can’t wait to come back.

I was here for 10 days for the 1st time. I am going back to Serbia with very good and beautiful memories. Appartment was beautiful in the hotel, the food excellent, the service extremely polite, kind, helpfull and warm. My husband and I plan to come here again next summer and I will cooperate with this hotel in my business.

There’s absolutely nothing more I can say about this hotel other than excellent! It was my husband’s 60th birthday and nothing was too much trouble for them. Andreas you were fantastic organising everything for me, making sure my husband had an experience he will never forget. Balloons, in the room and around the private cabana by the rooftop pool, a cake, fantastic room and he even made sure there was my favourite wine ready for us, chilled to perfection. Alexandra the restaurant manager at the Courtyard, was so attentive and very generous, making us his special desert at our table, followed by a lovely liqueur at no cost, a birthday wish from him, yes and again another bottle of our favourite wine waiting for us. (The wine was not on the menu but they made the effort to ensure it was available to us). The staff are all amazing too, Ali the waiter at breakfast and the lovely lady who cooked fresh eggs for us. The lovely handsome Greek waiter at the Courtyard Restaurant and the DJ was outstanding!! A big big thank you again Andreas I am so grateful to you and your staffxxx Jayne & Mark

We came in October half-term. We booked a standard room as this was our 4th trip abroad this year so we needed to budget a bit. I would say if this is your only holiday, or if you can, upgrade. We had very little privacy on the balcony and a side sea view. Our main view was overlooking the side of the Italian restaurant building- which wasn’t wonderful. The rooms are modern and comfortable. There are plenty of power outlets, a hairdryer, a fridge, a decent bathroom with a good shower. The design of the bathroom is one which doesn’t soak the floors either. I also liked the blue nightlight on the wall which stayed on at night as I don’t like the room completely dark. My husband and I were happy with our beds but our teenage son was not so happy with his cot/ sofa bed. It was quite small for him and he complained a lot about it and it hurt his back. We were bed and breakfast. Breakfast was certainly nothing to write home about. I like healthy food. This was mainly fried, greasy, cheap food; processed meat; basic pastry; unappetising fruit from the discount stand or from the tin and a pot of porridge - which was more like gruel. The bread was ok but there was no hygienic means of serving it. The catering staff all looked like they needed a good wash too! I was glad we were not half-board. The staff were also rude and argued with each other creating an unsettling atmosphere. Many were not Cypriot: cheap labour and they clearly resented their situation. It was uncomfortable. It was even hard to find and clean, prepared tables and Rheeya restaurant was grubby. By the sixth day I couldn’t face another god-awful breakfast and walked to Costa up the road! Breakfast was made worse by the horrendous drone of music blasting out from the speakers: the likes of Ronan Keating, Foreigner, Roxette, Michael Bolton etc just to ruin your holiday vibe and put you in a mood for the day. The hideous music, which sounded like a Mother’s Day gift CD from 1997, persisted around the pool during the day too: depressing and endless; totally destroying any holiday vibe. The awful music was so loud that it even blasted into our room so we not want to open the balcony door. We mainly just went to the beach to avoid it. Further along the beach to avoid the music! The beach was nice and clean, but be aware that it is not part of the hotel and not free! The sun loungers and umbrella are a standard cost of €2.50 an item. The beach belongs to the municipality. You don’t need to bring beach / pool towels with you as these are given by the hotel. Some are quite faded and worn but nevertheless it saves you packing them and you can replace them when wet or dirty. The spa area is the best part of the hotel: professional and relaxing with pleasant staff. It was a shame the steam room was broken but we booked a massage. My husband loved his and I enjoyed mine. The only issue I had was we paid for 75 minutes and I was done after 66. I don’t know if this was because it was the special o

A huge shoutout for the night shift worker kostas on ensuring me and my friends were safe and no trouble was occurring. Our flight had been cancelled and he went out of his way to get us a hotel for the night and knocked some money off for us. I asked him “why do you do it go out your way for other people?” His response was to make sure you lot have the best experience possible. And also very friendly bar staff and drinks were cheap too.

This was our second year returning to At Herbal in August and it did not disappoint. We only ever stay in Cyprus in a B&B basis as we like to enjoy all the restaurants that are in the area. The breakfast was lovely, couldn’t fault it. Food was replenished quickly, the dirty plates was collected from your tables promptly and the staff were all very friendly. We stayed in a sea view suite, perfect for 2 adults and 2 teenage children. The view from our balcony was stunning. Thank you for another wonderful stay, we will see you next year.

We had a room with seaview . The stay was amazing, the staff was very friendly and you also could see the smile behind the masks. The room was equipped modern and the bed was comfortable. We enjoyed a lot the stay and can recommend the hotel 😁
