How not to spoil your holiday in Cyprus

Still have my sincere impressions about Albania which in general made an impression, but which I can not put on the list of places for a beach holiday.

Now O. CyprusThat we love very much, often we are and therefore paying attention to the good and do not notice the negative points. And they are, although in the case of Cyprus, a little. I will try to collect in a common bunch of all the details, I hope it will help as comfortable as possible. relax in CyprusIt does not matter - on your own or with the help of a travel agent.

In most cases, the tourist is to blame itself in his problems, not that hotel chose, not at that time I went and incorrectly made the route or spent a bunch of time and money on an unnecessary tour. There are also disadvantages that do not depend on the tourist, but which can be avoided if everything is properly organized.

What can spoil rest in Cyprus

"Expensive" or "bad" housing

More precisely, the fact of expensive housing - hotels or apartments is not the fact, and the case when the price does not correspond to quality.

With such a housing you can meet in any region of Cyprus and pay 50-70 euros for apartments in which there will be no hot water, they will be far from a good beach, old furniture, a small balcony with a dull look or something else.

I myself often faced similar options in Larnaca. Often he stopped there because of the late arrival time and spent a couple of days - I love the local embankment and a couple of local restaurants. Larnaca also sells quite a lot of cheap tours Operators who often choose not the best hotels from here and some are dissatisfied.

In fact, the situation with housing on Cyprus Next. Its insanely much and behind the growing demand follows the immediate growth of the sentence, which is sometimes inadequate at a price, especially in peak seasons.

I myself stop almost always in the same places, below the ladies link to the hotel and apartments in which I lived and can recommend.

Hotel in Larnaca for 1-2 days maximum - Cactus., There is a swimming pool, close to the embankment and the center. For longer holiday in Larnaca There are apartments and hotels better than.

Apartments in Pol.cE (in the photo) for any term for the study of that part of Cyprus and Start Traveling to Northern Cyprus - Maria "Splace

Apartments in Ayia Napa For any term, the city center - Myriama Apartments.

Apartments in Paphos, for family not only a beach holiday, as far from good beaches, but Ideal for traveling around the neighborhood, including on the sea coast, there is a basin, kitchen rooms and a balcony - Panklitos Apartments.

All this budget housing, Price depending on the season, starts from 25 to 30 euros for two with a balcony and kitchen.

Bad beaches

Not often, but sometimes I meet such reviews mainly from those who are further Larnaca and Limassol I did not go, namely there the beaches are not very. So read O. the best beaches of Cyprus And choose the right places for a seafood. Because in Cyprus, awesome beachesAlthough not so cool as in Greece, where they know the best beaches in Europe, in my humble opinion.

Excursions that do not buy

I am not a supporter to go to herd by a guide or move in a crowded jeep / bus. But I understand that there is a fairly large category of people buying excursions.

If you already want see Cyprus eyes guide, then refrain from the excursion on the ship from Ayia Napa in Famagust - You still do not see the Famagust - the ship is not suitable close, and the sea can be seen for free, it's just a sea walk for big money. A similar maritime walk can be organized for less money.

If a group jeep safari was chosen, then get ready for possible vehicle breakdowns and / or to a long breakdown of people with races on the hotel Round / back. Thus, you spend more time on the road than the excursion itself. It is not necessary that it will always be so, but often this is.

Car rental

I often hear and read negative reviews related to rental cars. Was it? The tourist wants to be as low as possible, without a deposit and with the most convenient supply and return of the car. With such a planned savings, it often turns out to be exactly the opposite. Local all this promise only to get the client. And then then complain of a weak machine, a high deposit, a bad service and a high price.

My experience rental cars in Cyprus - 5 times. Enjoyed three rental sites, namely, local NO-NAME operators, site - international office rental offices and the MYRENTACAR site, which combines reliable local operators. Had not a very successful experience only in the first case, when he chose an unknown office on the outskirts Ayia Napa - I got very weak and born from all sides the machine, which a couple of times refused to go. Then it was true that there was no collateral and the price was 25 euros per day for the Mikrolrazhka Tuta Yaris, it was in the high season in July.
