we always managed to go down before 10 so we didn't experience the a la carte breakfast. The lunch and dinner menu is very reasonably priced, e.g. you can get a burger and chips with salad for around 5 Euros and a mixed grill for about 10 Euros which is very filling. I had a chicken burger one day but was not overly impressed with the quality of the burger but the mixed grill was fabulous. The restaurant staff also double as the bar staff and are all extremely friendly and efficient. It was no problem for them to explain items on the menu and unlike some restaurants I experienced in Cyprus I did not feel it was a chore to catch the waiting staff's attention when necessary.

From what I understand during the summer months, the restaurants hosts a weekly barbeque which is extremely good value from personal experience of the barbeque we had on our first evening after arriving.

The bar had a good selection of alcoholic and soft drinks as well as cocktails at reasonable prices compared to other hotels I've stayed in. There was no time that I had to wait more than a few moments to get served as the staff were always perfectly attentive to the customers even when it was busy, for example on the last day we were there; there was a football match on and still the bar staff managed to be completely on the ball and serve everyone quickly and efficiently.

The bar area had a pool table which seemed to get used a fair bit and there was a large plasma screen for customers to watch TV in the main bar area as well as a smaller TV in the entrance area to the hotel which were we advised we could change the channels if we wished to whilst waiting for our taxi on the last day to take us to the airport.

RESTAURANT/BAR: 8 out of 10 (2 points lost for the dodgy chicken burger)

The hotel has a lovely swimming pool outside with deckchairs aplenty. Even at the busiest times there were deckchairs available, although being rather worried about sunburn we did not go out at the busier times which seemed to be between 11 and 2pm. We mostly went out after 3pm to avoid getting too much of the midday sun. The pool is very clean and there are parasols all around the pool in case you want to relax in the shade. The bar staff are happy to give your drinks in plastic glasses to drink by the pool for health and safety reasons. There is also an outside bar by the pool but this was not open when we were there but which I assume would be open later in summertime. The garden area
