Aliathon Aegean
Paphos Resort | Cyprus
⭐⭐⭐⭐
Tucked within palm-framed, landscaped gardens on Paphos’ coast, Aliathon Aegean feels more like a whitewashed Cypriot village than a standard beach hotel. Families and couples bed down in spacious studios and apartments with kitchenettes, while a choice of pools, a spa, gym and a brilliant dine-around restaurant line-up keep days and evenings easy and varied.
Low-rise, whitewashed buildings cluster around a broad lagoon-style pool, with loungers, palms and lawns giving Aliathon Aegean a calm, resort-village feel. Inside, bright and contemporary apartments are designed for easy, self-contained stays – ideal whether you’re here for a week’s sun or a longer Cyprus escape.
For couples and families wanting Cyprus’ sunshine and history with a laid-back base, Aliathon Aegean delivers a relaxed, village-style stay with the flexibility of self-catering or generous meal plans. It’s around 30 minutes from Paphos Airport, and just 50m from local bars and restaurants. See more Cyprus holidays.

Restaurants and Bars
Food is a real strong point at Aliathon Aegean, thanks to a broad choice of buffet and à la carte options plus flexible board plans that work well for both families and couples.
The main buffet restaurant covers breakfast and daytime dining with international and local dishes and handy touches like highchairs and microwaves. In the evenings, you can mix things up with four à la carte venues: tuck into fajitas and tacos at Casa Del Sol Mexican Restaurant, wood-fired favourites at Mare e Monti Italian Restaurant, traditional meze at Mezedogonia Taverna, or curries and grills at Spicy Hut Indian Restaurant. Pantheon Buffet Restaurant adds extra variety with show cooking and a kids’ buffet.
Six bars are scattered around the resort – from relaxed pool bars and a swim-up bar to a cocktail lounge, rooftop sushi & cocktail spot at The Dome, and the lively Wild Horse Pub that keeps things going into the small hours (seasonal opening, some venues not daily).
Guests on selected Half Board Plus or Full Board Plus plans benefit from included drinks with meals, and eligible Half Board Plus guests enjoy a generous dine-around concept at designated à la carte restaurants between April and October (reservation required, details on arrival). Dress codes are generally smart casual, and supplements or booking requirements may vary by season and board basis.
Pool Areas and Beach
You’ll find a large outdoor freshwater pool forming the social heart of the Aegean section, surrounded by sunbeds and parasols on broad terraces and lawns. There’s a dedicated sunbathing area and plenty of space to stretch out with a book, plus a swim-up bar and extra pool bars to keep drinks and daytime snacks close at hand (seasonal hours).
On cooler days or for a quieter swim, there’s an indoor freshwater pool located within the spa centre – this one is adults-only, ideal for a calm dip away from the main activity. Fresh pool towels are provided, so you can pack lighter.
The nearest beach is roughly 1km away, an easy stroll or short cab ride, and Paphos’ coastline offers a choice of sandy stretches, coves and promenades if you fancy a change of scene from the pool deck.
Spa, Sports and Other Facilities
Wellbeing is well covered at the Aliathon Spa, where you can rotate between the sauna, steam room and whirlpool, or book in for massages, beauty treatments and hairdressing (16+, extra charges apply; opening hours depend on occupancy).
Active guests have use of an air-conditioned gym with cardio equipment, fixed-strength machines and free weights, open during daytime hours. On the sports side there’s football, table tennis, tennis and even lawn bowls, plus cycle services with bike hire available locally for exploring the surrounding countryside and coastline.
Around the resort you’ll also find a children’s playground, on-site mini-market for daily bits, and a concierge-style reception desk that can help with everything from local info to luggage storage on departure day. Entertainment programmes vary by season, but expect a generally relaxed, family-friendly atmosphere rather than full-on nightlife on site.
