Palm Beach hotel – Clean, quiet – for sunbathing and relaxation

Super 4*+ Palm Beach hotel Larnaca.. Quiet, clean, great sea view, perfect Swedish buffet (we had breakfast and dinner, and it was more then plenty, because breakfast was served till 11.00 and dinner after 7 o’clock). The staff is very helpful, polite and nice, entertainment every night. Dinner outside, on the porch near the pool was just awesome.

Clean water, fish swam at our feet – about 30 meters away, the water barely passed knee level. You can rent a motor boat near the hotel, and the experience is totally worth it. As an extra-trip it’s worth trying the Zenobia submarine, a sunken ship. There are some bars close to the hotel, for those who are looking for good times: good cocktails, music and dancing. You can go by cab to Larnaca, but it’s sort of expensive – the vacation per se was pretty expensive, so was life there (1 Cyprus pound – 1.80 Euro).

What I didn’t like was the Neckermann guide, who refused to speak in any other language then Hungarian, explaining that she wouldn’t do that for 2 people (even though we were staying at the most expensive hotel of all the people in the transfer bus).So we took the extra tours with local agencies and we didn’t cough one bitJ.

In a nut shell, the hotel is great for a quiet vacation, beach and relaxation. For those who are looking for more excitement, I understand that Paphos is best. Larnaca seems more quiet, or maybe it was because we visited it at the end of the season.
