Hotel Atlantica Golden Beach

I have just returned from a ten day holiday to the Atlantica Golden Beach Hotel and found it very much as others have described. A very well run hotel, spotlessly clean, with exceptionally good entertainment. The TUI Team were excellent, as were the other acts. The staff are very pleasant, but I have to also make a special mention of the mainly male waiters from Nepal, who were super efficient, constantly clearing up, and helping to make this a very well run hotel. I also include the few girls in these comments. The hotel is the ideal holiday for those who who love to sit in the sun, swim in the lovely pool, or in the sea, and be absolutely spoiled, many returning year after year, but for those who perhaps like some pleasant walks without getting the bus anywhere, this is limited, but there is a very regular bus service outside the hotel for the short drive into Pathos, where you can change buses to visit elsewhere. We requested a room with a walk in shower suitable for someone with a disability and we were given a well decorated, spacious room. The room was on the side of the hotel, and building work was being carried out on the opposite side of the road. The walk in shower needed attention as every time it was used water seeped onto the bathroom floor which made it slippery. This was reported and I am sure will be put right when the room is vacant. Apart from the above, given the price we paid it was exceptionally good value for money and I would recommend this hotel to anyone wanting a relaxing holiday, good food, in a beautiful hotel.

Visited this hotel for the first time , first impressions from Michael were magnificent and swiftly escorted to our rooms . Hotel cleaning staff work tirelessly to maintain this hotel and food of a high standard . Unfortunately the overall feel of this hotel was hostile , due to The Returning Customers who presume it’s their automatic right to treat others with hostile approach ... belly aching “we have been here X amount of times “ yawn yawn ! Often with the following statement of “ Management said....we can do or act in this in human way” For this above statement the management must be deemed as weak and powerless , which breeds contempt from others . After all the returning customers in God’s waiting room are a reflection of discrimination in past years not recognising , the world has moved on .... thankfully . Thomson staff amazing and a true credit to the weakness that lies beneath . Thomson gold team ..... well done you for maintaining calm for all unwelcome futuristic customers , who were only attracted to the pictures on line and not the reality of hostility .

We were incredibly sceptical of all the reviews as they seemed to mainly be from ‘returners’ but we went ahead and booked anyway. I am so glad we did as what they say is true and we will likely end up being ‘returners’ ourselves. The staff at this hotel go out of their way to ensure you have an enjoyable stay. I require a gluten free diet and the restaurant manager ensured I had gf cereal, bread and desserts. There are lot of little added extras throughout the stay that really make you feel valued. The entertainment options are unlike any we have come across at other hotels; they are fantastic. The resident band, TUI reps and visiting cabaret were all excellent and we didn’t feel we needed to get out of the hotel in the evening. This was good as it doesn’t really have much within walking distance. We stayed in late Oct and booked a private pool room. We were given 522, the larger of the 4. It was still warm enough to swim in and although these rooms are in a row with loungers next to each other we never felt that our privacy was invaded, even with people walking past down to the beach. The view of the sunset from these rooms is amazing. We had originally intended to go on a few excursions but we felt so relaxed at the hotel that we only ended up going out one morning. We took the bus to Paphos and the old town with the TUI local area specialist. Thanks for a great holiday and we look forward to returning!
