We’ve just had a brilliant first holiday abroad with our little family, we stayed here at the Avanti Holiday Village. Very basic but it’s what we wanted as we were only sleeping here. We had no issues at all, lovely staff and lovely cleaners (cleaners dont speak English) our only concern is that the ground floor terraces dont have walls or rails, this meant we couldn’t have the door open as young daughter would wonder off. Pool and facilities are great. And you can also swim and eat at their sister hotel just across the road. Lots of feral cats so be prepared (they are friendly) also, be prepared to see lots of GIANT ants and woodlice and earwigs!! Would recommend this place and would definitely come back!

Very large complex with lots of space, huge pool, very large private apartments. It really is like a little village with windy paths out to either the pool, reception area or out towards the supermarkets and a couple of restaurants, the Fiesta and Ocean Basket. We noticed there were quite a few empty outlets that used to be restaurant/bars on site, not sure if they have closed due to lack of activity during the pandemic? It didn't spoil our holiday as there are still quite a few restaurants and bars in the area outwith the complex. Reception are very helpful in that we had requested a field side room before we arrived and that's exactly what we got and also we requested to extend our room on the last day due to a late flight and this too was honoured at a cost of €70 until 6pm, so thank you Avanti Just bare in mind though that when making requests it really is just that and that it might not be possible for reception if you ask during high season! The pool area is massive with a swim up bar and lunch served from 11.30am. You can either charge your meal and drinks to your room or pay there and then, however for drinks from the bar you are best to charge to your room as the card machine kept playing up! If you don't want to wait until you leave before paying your room bill you can just go to reception each day to pay in cash or card. There is shade around one side of the pool and full sun on the other side of the pool. There are loads of sunbeds, so no need to reserve, not sure what this is like in high season though! The room is massive with 2 single beds in the living room and double (2 beds together) in the bedroom. Note the bathroom is in the bedroom, meaning any nighttime toilet breaks during the night for anyone sleeping in the living room could pose a problem? The Aircon is in both rooms and was such a relief that we left it on constantly, the beds are also super comfy. We didn't cook much, but we noticed there was only one pot and one frying pan. There are no scissors or dish towels, which we gathered from a previous review, I brought dish towels with me. The cleaning staff do a great job, fresh towels everyday, bins emptied floors cleaned and beds made. They don't service on Mondays or Thursdays, but they still empty the bin and provide clean towels. We walked to the harbour a few times, and along the way there is a really lovely outside bar called Suite 48, they do wonderful cocktails especially Pornstar Martinis. They also do food. We watched the sunset from there one evening. The harbour has great restaurants especially Theo's, which is a family business. Along from Avanti is a bar called wild horse which is busy in the evening. We went there a few times after our dinner. They have the usual holiday entertainment, kareoke etc. If that is your thing. The hotel entertainment could definitely be improved especially with the huge outdoor space they have which doesn't look like it is used in the evening not even for dinner? Greek/Cypri

We had a fantastic 12 night stay at Avanti Village. All the staff were really welcoming and helpful. The apartment was spotless, the pool and all the facilities were great. It was a short walk to the beach and harbour and there are plenty of restaurants nearby. We have to give a big shout out to the entertainment staff especially Lucy, Julia, JD and Ned. They were brilliant and our daughter Ella will really miss them. She always asked where Lucy was! Thirmeda on reception was very helpful throughout our stay. Thanks so much, we will be back!

We had a wonderful stay here. Staff are very friendly and accommodating. Rooms are clean and spacious - very comfy beds, pillows. We had breakfast and lunch here most days and it was reasonably priced and very tasty! Small supermarkets nearby and a good selection of restaurants within a 10 minute walk. Lovely large pool and plenty of sun beds and seated areas. Pool tables and table tennis available to use, plus additional entertainment available during the day and evening for children and adults. Local bus services to the harbour / water park and beaches for a few euros. We will definitely be returning here. Fantastic holiday!

We just spent 10 days at the Avanti village, rooms were clean and cleaned daily, all staff were lovely and friendly, the pool is amazing perfect for the whole family, entertainment by the pool and music throughout the day, the pool staff were so friendly. Food from the poolside taverna was really nice, could also take away and eat at poolside or in your room, the pizza was fantastic. Childrens mini disco started a little late as my youngest is 2, in previous holidays the disco start around 7 so I thought this was late. The entertainment could have been better but was ok the kids enjoyed it. We tried the Greek night in the hotel and while there wasn’t rows of food like in other hotels, what was there was all gorgeous I’d rather a smaller section of good quality food than a larger selection on low quality food. The buffet breakfast at the taverna in the village was also gorgeous. After a few days we discovered that if you walk through reception you can go across the car park to walk through to the hotel and the main road which is alot easier than walking through the village past the fiesta bar. Fiesta bar was gorgeous we ate there a few times everything was always so fresh and light. We loved our stay and would definitely stay here again! Xx

Just read a review about the patio door glass shattering. I took my daughter and son here in September. Yes, it is a fantastic place, clean, family-friendly with great staff. I myself, on occasions, had to knock the patio doors to get the kids' attention, sometimes quite forcibly to get the desired response. I think I would have had to knock or punch extremely hard to break the glass. Like other parents, my children's safety is paramount. We are booking again this year.

A really nice place to stay, the staff are amazing, Dimitra, the restaurant manager and Robert at the pool bar are friendly , welcoming and helpful every day. We have had a wonderful holiday and will definitely return. The pool area is fantastic and safe for the kids, the restaurant is very reasonable and food is very tasty. Accommodation has everything you need and beds are very comfy. The harbour is about a half hour walk away but it’s a lovely stroll along the shore path. I absolutely love it here ❤️

We have just spent a week at the Avanti Village, having stayed in the Avanti Hotel twice previously (before we had children) we decided to go with the village now we were returning with our children aged 10 & 7. The rooms are basic but are nice and big (it could have been a little cleaner) small nag was there were only 1 pillow allocated each, I suppose we could have requested more but didn’t. The air con leaked water in the bedroom and sometimes woke me up with the dripping! We were located at the far end of the village by the Fiesta Bar at the back entrance, I thought this was going to be a problem when reception first showed us on the map but it fact the positioning was perfect for us and it meant that no one walked past your bedroom window and it was nice and quiet, we had a lovely lemon tree in the garden and a seating area that got some nice late afternoon sun so could dry off swim stuff etc. The pool was good, it wasn’t as cold as some pools and we never struggled getting in. The kids loved the variety of the pool, the different areas with different water levels/waterfall, volley net, and rock area, they also loved the swim up bar! The buffet breakfast was good, it served decent bacon and sausages, fried eggs, scrambled, mushrooms, beans, porridge and some ham/cheese and small salad selection. Also pancakes which the kids loved, with Nutella. 2 toast machines and nice little rolls too. There was yoghurt and fruit too but the only little thing missing for me was nuts, I thought a little selection of those to go with cereal/porridge would have been great. The staff at the restaurant are excellent, nothing is too much trouble for them, the manager lady is awesome. We had lunch in there several times too and this was perfect. Reasonably priced and a decent quality. We had chicken gyros on our last day and I wish we’d had this sooner! It was lovely! The pool bar area is good too and serves a decent quality of drinks, the guys behind there work hard and serve up good drinks. Pool towels are supplied (which I hadn’t read anywhere about this before hand) and you can change them daily between 10-11am by the gym area. There is a fantastic little restaurant/bar called Kalua just outside the village next to the Fiesta bar. We went in there 4 times, once for a quality Mediterranean meal, lots of lovely tapas dishes and perfectly served cocktails, in wonderful glasses, it was just quality in there that we went back a few more times just to have some decent drinks. The village is around 35 min walk to the harbour, I ran this every morning and it’s 7km there and back. Now let’s talk about cats! There are lots of cats in Paphos, and there are a nice little family of kittens at the hotel, the kids ABSOLUTELY loved them, all of the kids and families alike. But I can imagine if you are scared of cats Paphos could be a bit of a problem for you because they are everywhere and in most restaurants. We aren’t particularly cat people although my 2 kids fell
