2 bedroom Apartment Kalypso with private garden, Aphrodite Hills Resort

The staff were amazing, and the Christmas and Boxing Day buffet banquet at the hotel was out of this world. I’ve never seen so much fantastic food prepared! We stayed in the app, which was great. Simply the best Christmas getaway, would highly recommend.

We were a group of six on a six-day golf trip, staying in a rental apartment rather than the hotel, so I can’t rate the hotel itself. The rental staff were brilliant, and every transfer and taxi was spot on. The resort is spotless and well maintained. The golf course was in perfect condition, with some lovely holes and picturesque views, and it’s excellent for a holiday round. Beer was cheap at €4.50. All of us said we’d go back, no negatives.

Our son spent a couple of hours a day at the kids club, and the staff there were fab. We had a swim-up room in May, though we usually moved between the different pools. The location is fairly isolated, but we knew that when booking and it didn’t bother us. Room cleaning was hit and miss, which got frustrating. On days they forgot to clean, there’d be no water in the room and we had to pop back out to the shop. The à la carte restaurants were all good, though the booking system is poorly designed. Our best meal was the meze at the Greek taverna in the village square, where the food just kept coming. The hotel hosts a lot of weddings, so many guests were either there for a wedding or couples sorting out wedding details.

The adults-only area was really helpful, and the place is very good for disabled guests, with ramps and easy access to most areas. The last week of September was fairly quiet. We might try going a bit later next year.
