It’s a great base to explore the wider Paphos region too – from Aphrodite’s Rock and ancient archaeological sites to countryside wine villages in the Troodos foothills.

What All Inclusive typically includes.

Pool days are taken seriously here, with a clever mix of family fun and grown-up calm.

• Little Monsters children’s pool – Dedicated kids’ pool where inflatables and water toys are permitted, giving younger guests their own splash zone.
• Indoor pool – Serenity indoor freshwater pool at the health club, heated from 01 Nov to 30 Apr. Inflatables are permitted here too; handy for cooler days and winter-sun stays.
