Tsokkos Beach Hotel

We were at this hotel last September/early October and had a great time. Food & entertainment were first class, so we decided to book it for this year again. Unfortunately, due to Thomas Cook we had to rebook with Jet2 for a later date. (16th - 30th Oct. The first 4 days were fine, food good etc, but then it went downhill, rapidly!! The food was awful! The leftover hot food from lunch was served cold at the evening meal. EVERY day! I asked the cook, who hovered about each mealtime, why there was no fresh melon or tuna and he said "its the end of season, were using up ingredients!" I was gobsmacked! The best bit was the breakfast, I felt I was away fishing every morning, trying to find actual beans in the sauce!!! It was like fishing with a net for minnows!! We paid good money for 2 WEEKS, but didn't get good service for those 2 weeks. However, the waiting staff and bar staff were fab..they work so hard and are always cheery! Drinks were ok. Wine was quite drinkable. I might give the hotel another go next year, but it certainly wont be so close to the end of the season!

We returned from our trip last week as we were there for a half term break. The rooms are dated, the food is bland and disappointing. The pool and location are good and the staff tried their best to please. It was like a holiday in the 80’s. WIFI and safe fees should be included but are charged here. Let this be an indicator if you are thinking of staying here. You would be better spending more money on a better hotel or getting an apartment as you will probably end up eating out of the hotel anyway. The drinks were fine. Also the website advertises a pool table but there wasn’t one. Not an ideal place for families with children as there is little to keep them entertained.

Not sure why there was mixed reviews as this hotel was great - I am a travel agent and stayed with adult family members and I highly recommend! Lovely hotel very close to beach and centre, staff were the friendliest I've come across in a hotel especially Andrèas on the bar and his Greek colleagues. We were All Inclusive and found the buffet to be themed every night with enough choice so wasn't repetitive. The drinks were also fine and they did a good selection of cocktails - Pina Colada was my fave. We were in a refurbished room on 5th floor with pool and distant sea view and was very clean and had english plug sockets. The walk in shower was good and there was also a fridge. The safe is 2€ per day to rent. You can get snacks from the restaurant in afternoon and they also have mini icecreams available all day which were like Magnums. Apparently the evening entertainment was previously supplied by Thomas Cook so the week we were there they were trying to source alternative entertainment such as live singers and a new animation person called Valentino who tried his best and did daytime activities such as aquarobics. Protaras is a lovely resort with great beaches and good tribute acts in most the bars in evening. We also got the bus to Ayia Napa which is worth going to. I'd definitely return to this area of Cyprus and wouldn't hesitate returning to this hotel. It had a big pool area and decor inside with very modern.
