Hotel Papantonia

Basic looking from the outside but met with a shiny and modern area. No frills but spotlessly clean and comfortable, food was excellent for an all inclusive. Snack bar between meal times was very good, drinks were very good too. The staff were great especially some of the younger ones,was expecting not to find them very friendly after reading other reviews but only found one mardy waiter!. Angie and Claire especially behind the bar were such lovely and hardworking girls giving out tips on where to visit and how to get there when we asked . The pool area was nice and clean. Plenty of sun beds for everyone, you could use the marlitas pools and their entertainment at night which you walked through at the side of the bar past the pool table/machines.. you also walked this way through the grounds to the beach and walkway where you can walk to protaras, lovely walk with some nice bars overlooking the sea . You can get a bus further up the road past the tipsy turtle , about every 15 mins €1.50 any journey before 8pm after that it’s €2.50. Goes all the way into Ayia Napa.. don’t be put off ayia napa. The harbour part is lovely in the evening for food drink and a stroll (party area is higher up if you do want to go though!) buses run from 6am til 4am . I can’t understand anything negative said about this hotel, but I’d imagine that some people may find it a bit out of the way of the strip at protaras, and not much to do for teenage kids. We’ve been all over Cyprus 13 times now, and enjoyed the holiday. Relaxing laid back hotel

Spent a week here! Good location nice quiet area! Beach, restaurants and bars all within walking distance!! Protaras was a nice 15/20 minute walk away! Apartment was clean! Angie and Claire were brilliantly behind the bar with the information they provided!! Plenty of sun beds around pool! Found the food hit and miss at times! When checking in more information provided would of been helpful! Regarding entertainment wise! Use the hotel next door but come back for the all inclusive drinks! Would highly recommend getting a pizza from the nearby restaurant blue spice! Also the Greek restaurant of ifalos taverna is worth a visit! There entertainment on in the station pub every night just next door!

Just returned from this hotel and honestly couldn’t wait to get away. The staff walk around with ear phones in, never a greeting or a smile. The food is horrible. All inclusive is a joke. We have spent £400 eating out to get away from the lack of entertainment and atmosphere. I’ve been to Cyprus many times and have to say this was my worst experience. TUI Will be hearing from me. Thank god I only booked a week!!
