Hotel is ideally situated on the beach and close to local shops and the bus in to Paphos centre. It is spotlessly clean and the hotel and gardens are meticulously cared for. Was apprehensive about room, as I was joining family already there who had a small room and inland view. I was not disappointed. The room was extremely spacious with a large balcony. Although, no pool view, the sea view was great. I can highly recommend room 2310. Bed was huge, comfy and bathroom was a good size, with a plentiful supply of hot water. The sunbed allocation system is a good idea, but let down by the fact people can book sunbeds before arrival. This was not something TUI told us about, and we spent 3 days on the grass with no sun before getting a better sunbed. TUI also said a late checkout was not possible at this hotel (after they changed our flights). Hotel were more than happy to arrange a late checkout (cost 60 euros). Was money well spent. With regards to the food, there was a good choice of restaurants, but food hit and miss and the choice was not that extensive. Some of the meat dishes were very fatty and overcooked at lunch and dinner time. Breakfast was far superior. With regards to the speciality dining, there was no availability for the week I was there and my family were unable to book anything until I arrived, although the room was booked and paid for. Not great that you can book a sunbed but not a table in the restaurant with a guaranteed room booking. Pool bars were great, especially the swim up bar. No bookings made at the spa, but the inside pool was lovely for a cool, refreshing dip. Entertainment was on the poor side and if sitting on the terrace overlooking the pool, you can hear the entertainment inside, the piped music and the entertainment outside. My only other gripe was people using floats and playing ball games in pool. Not great when you get belted with a ball on the head. Also not great that two members of staff saw and neither bothered to ask if I was ok. Spent the last day with a thumping headache. Lovely hotel, but prefer the Pioneer (Constantino Bros) hotel.
