Detailed review by trivago traveller
Fantastic staff at the Eleana apartments, very friendly and chatty. Great food and good value compared to some local restaurants. Cleaners come 3-4 times a week but are also very friendly and they seem happy in the job.
Local area and cyprus in general I think is a bit expensive... my parnter and me managed to spend £1600 in two weeks, we bought hardly any gifts and only went on 1 excursion - mainly spent it on eating out so prepare to spend double what you spend in England.
Visited Protaras that was lovely too but STEER CLEAR of the Aquarium in Protaras - we spent 10 Euros each and thought it would be fantastic, however, it turned out to be about 20 tanks in one room, some small sharks, small aligators & birds. Took us 20 minutes to go round the whole place, the bus took about an hour to come aswell so you're best to get a taxi if you desperatley want to see it for yourself.
We also visited Kyrina and Famagusta some of the sites were fabulous - the Turk towns are very different to the other side of the island. you need your passport to cross the border, they are not as friendly and welcoming as the Greek Cypriots.
The thomas cook rep wasnt much help but she was very enthusiastic and did try.
Other reps we met on the holiday and especially in the Larnaca airport were lovely and helpful.
BE WARNED - If you are over your luggage allowance coming Back from Cyprus - they charge 10 EUROS PER KILO and are very strict!!!!!!
If you decide to go - Have a great holiday, Visit nissi beach (beautiful) AND.... TAKE PLENTY OF MONEY!

No TV which can get very boring but there is air con available at 5 Euro per night which can be a good thing...
