Cavo Maris Beach

"Stayed here with our extended family from 25 to the 1st of November, for our nieces wedding. Couldn’t fault the hotel or the staff. Thanks for helping our stay a great one."

"This is an absolute gem of a hotel. From the moment we arrived, the staff were extremely helpful and welcoming. We could not fault our room - we loved the touch screen lighting options next to our beds which also had good charging points for sockets and cables for our devices. We had a good view from our balcony which also had a small seating area. The bed was super comfortable. The room also contains a safe and fridge - very handy and we were provided with robes and slippers. The shower gel provided was lovely (contained Argan oil!). Breakfast - there is so much choice! Something for everyone. On the weekends, there were mini koubes (if you know, you know)! We also ate in the restaurant one evening for the Asian buffet - for 30 euros there was a lot of choice and there were some good vegetarian options too. The hotel has many restaurants to choose from so if you don't want to leave the complex, you don't really need to. There is also two convenience shops across the road and a traditional Greek restaurant. The bus stop to travel to the Protaras strip/pier and to Ayia Napa is also outside the hotel and there is a code on the bus stop which you can scan for a live tracker of the bus. The hotel is located in front of a stunning beach (run by the government so you pay a small fee for the sunbeds and umbrellas). Crystal clear water, excellent for snorkling. It is a bit rocky so water shoes are recommended. There are watersports available as well. If you want to sunbathe for free, the hotel has plenty of beds and an adult only zone as well. There are also lots of sunbeds by the swimming pool. The hotel give you a yellow ticket for your towels which you return and get fresh everyday. The hotel is spotlessly clean, staff are constantly cleaning throughout the day. I would recommend this hotel to anyone - family, couples etc. We were a couple with two adult/teenageers who had their own room and it was perfect for all of us. They had a schedule on display with a wealth of events for children as well so everyone is catered for, literally. We have already booked to return next year."

"We recently stayed at this hotel in Cyprus for a week as a group of 11, on a half-board basis. The hotel itself is modern, beautifully decorated, and has a relaxing atmosphere. On first impression, it truly feels like a high-standard property and we were excited for our stay. Unfortunately, our experience was heavily overshadowed by serious concerns around the food. Four members of our group became severely unwell at different points throughout the trip with clear and aggressive food-poisoning symptoms. This was not a minor upset — it was debilitating. I am also 11 weeks pregnant, and the situation was particularly distressing; I was unable to eat properly for days afterwards. When we raised these concerns with the hotel, we were extremely disappointed by their response. Rather than taking the situation seriously, they dismissed it — suggesting my illness was due to pregnancy and that the others were unwell because of “the change in weather.” Considering multiple adults and a child were affected separately over the course of the week, this explanation was unacceptable and felt dismissive rather than responsible. What made the situation even more worrying was the lack of support when one of the children in our group was unwell for over 13 hours. Our friends requested bottled water from reception as they were unable to leave the room due to how unwell he was, and were told the hotel does not provide room service. Refusing such a basic request during an illness is not only poor service — it reflects a concerning lack of care for guest wellbeing. Another point worth noting is the lack of basic ironing facilities. There is no iron in the rooms; instead, guests must book an “ironing room” in advance. For a hotel of this size, this system simply does not work. The room contained only two irons, which is not reasonable for the number of guests, especially for families staying for a full week who expect standard in-room amenities. While the hotel is visually lovely and has strong potential, the severe illness experienced by multiple guests, the dismissive response when we reported it, the lack of basic support during sickness, and the impractical ironing setup all significantly impacted our stay. Until there are clear improvements in food safety, guest care, and facilities, we would not feel confident recommending this hotel — particularly to families or pregnant travellers."
