Cyprus

Annabelle review 15th June My first impression of the hotel was how big it was. The foyer was huge, a large open space that led to everywhere you need to go. The room, again, was large. It included the bed, a sofa, coffee table & two stools, which lead onto the balcony with an excellent view of the Ocean. The temperature each day was circa 35 degrees, very hot. However, the room was fully air conditioned, which made it quite comfortable. Put my factor 50 on each day and it was all good for the day. I enjoyed the spa treatments. One was changed on arrival from a Pilate to a training session. That was the first treatment I had and I learnt some good exercises with the trainer Chris. The massages were very good. Most were done by Kristina, who was excellent. She also did the facial, which was good, although I’m not really into the whole clay & cucumber thing. The treatments were all done by Wednesday, so I bought an extra massage on Thursday. They were that good. The food….the food was amazing. Every dish I had was delicious. Three on sites restaurants, of which two were open each day. In addition, I was informed that as the Almera hotel next door was part of the same chain, I could also use their restaurants. This made the choices plentiful. Each menu had several starters, mains & deserts to choose from. From that point of view, I felt quite spoilt. Some examples of the dishes I had were Prawn dumplings, vegetable spring rolls, sea bass cooked in a banana leaf & a couple of curries. I particularly enjoyed the desserts with my favourite being the Pear éclair. Of the three restaurants on site, I particularly liked the Ouranos restaurant. Situated on the top floor it had inside and balcony dining with a lovely view of the sea. It also has an open dining area on a separate level. The staff in the restaurant were excellent. In particular, Joanna, who was my server for a couple of my visits. The service of all the staff in the whole hotel was exemplary. I felt most welcome. I’m not much for the sun & due to the high UVs I went out for a walk every day at sunrise & again in the evening after dinner. Sunset was early at 8pm so I tended to miss the actual sunset. The morning walks were great. I visited the local Archaeological site and view some particularly good mosaics. The hotel is situated right next to the beach. The promenade is immediately out the back of the hotel. It runs for miles in each direction. I walked East from the hotel for about 30 mins & found myself halfway back to the airport! In summary, the whole experience was outstanding, however it was expensive. The holiday was better than last year, although not taking anything away from an amazing holiday at Paradise Plages. However, the previous year I went to Oceano in Tenerife & the Cyprus holiday was as good as that place. Yet Oceano was somewhat cheaper. This make me ask the question, although it was an amazing holiday, was it value for money and I am not sure. Having said that I still think I would go back. Maybe just the half board accommodation with no treatment pack so I could pick my own treatments when I get there.

Almyra is a wonderful place to stay- welcoming, clean & friendly. The staff are amazing & a huge asset to the hotel. The grounds are spacious & well kept. I had a superior sea-view room - the view, a delight to wake up to. The food in Mosaics restaurant was plentiful & varied & the option on full or half board, to dine in their other restaurants is an added bonus. The spa is an absolute retreat in itself. My therapist, Anna was wonderful, so compassionate. My stay was early November with daytime temperatures of 23-25 degrees I would 100% recommend Almyra

The hotel is stunning and the staff are wonderful

Good facilities, choices and views! At reasonable low season prices with no Singles Supplement. Pleasant, helpful staff and an excellent location.

Great location and treatment . The room was fantastic and the staff friendly. Had a wonderful time and would go again,

Annabelle is a fabulous hotel, excellent restaurants and service from hotel staff, I cannot fault it!

Perfect break. Lovely hotel with great polite and friendly staff. Great location. Hotel therapists are very professional, friendly and excellent at their job.

Stunningly beautiful Anassa. I’m just back home from my 5th visit and I’m so looking forward to visiting again next year!

Stunning hotel where everything is pure perfection - hence I go back as often as I can!

More than I expected, great place, friendly staff, great spa and restaurants

Excellent hotel in a convenient location.

Well Being Escapes went over and above what was required when booking this holiday.

Very nice hotel with well trained staff. Choice of restaurants which were pretty good. Location was excellent. Spa personnel were very good.

Lovely hotel, perfect location, close to town, harbour and sea activities. Highly recommended.

Lovely hotel, position and spa. Communication sometimes lacking a little in advising of facilities, meal options etc

Amazingly gorgeous hotel. Such a beautiful place, amazing spa, gorgeous beach, my only feedback would be it was a shame they charged for water and you got no drinks as part of half board

Very friendly and helpful staff. They genuinely wanted you to have a good time. The service was excellent as was the cleanliness. Tge food was good.

Excellent staff. Small gym, I would have liked the outdoor heated pool to remain heated in November

Lovely hotel, although when we were there it was busy with families we were able to go to the lovely adult only spa area with outdoor pool which is quiet and peaceful. We had a Aethon Premium Sea View room which had a lovely view of the sea and harbour area, close to the spa and very quiet. The restaurants provided delicious food and the staff were friendly and helpful.
