We have just returned home from a fabulous family holiday at the Papantonia hotel. Rooms - we had a studio apartment for 3 of us and it was a basic room with 2 beds pushed together and a sofa bed. For us staying for 2 weeks, there wasn’t sufficient storage for all of our things, about 10 coat hangers and just a dressing table with 2 small drawers in. Very clean rooms and was given a once over every day. Facilities - the pool was lovely, 2 to choose from and there was always a sun bed available no matter what time you went down. There is an air hockey machine and ping pong table which is available to use which was good. All inclusive - food was the best selection of salad bar I think we’ve had, lots of choice. The main dishes were a bit hit and miss, as most of them were very rich and same sort of things every night. The snack bar was good, pizza chips salads and then pitta wraps and chips later on. Drinks were a good selection, a few cocktails, soft drinks and beers were available. We also took a refillable cup which we could top up on some machines where you could help yourself. Location was good, 20 minute walk to Protaras, 10 minute walk to the nearest beach and water sports. There was also a couple of bars within walking distance that were good for after the AI finishes, and the Station Pub next door has a bouncy castle on until late for kids. Also a take away there for pizzas and pittas. Entertainment - this was the worst part of the holiday, hardly anything for kids. They ran a bingo round, some face painting and a few mini games with the kids and then that was it. We went around the corner to where a stage was and had a mini disco, but later found out this isn’t actually part of the hotel, it’s the Anastasia next door. Staff - could not fault the staff at all, I think the people working here were the best part of the holiday. Shout out to Sotos and Niyazi on the bar, made everyone feel super welcome and always interacted with my little one. Also the gent in the blue top who works the restaurant, super friendly! Management was always knocking around interacting with people which was nice to see. Lastly Thomas on the reception, always interacting with everyone and an amazing staff member. Loved our holiday and will hopefully be back!! 🩷
