Product Details

The two-room apartment my husband and I have stayed in at Konnos Bay Hotel Apartments for the past 23 years offers everything we need for a perfect holiday.  It overlooks the most picturesque bay in Cyprus,and when we visit in September the daytime temperature is around 30 to 33 degrees without clouds or rain.  We swim for over an hour both morning and afternoon in the beautiful turquoise warm clear water which is the best sea we have ever swum in anywhere in the world!

The greatest asset of the spotlessly clean apartments  is the wonderfully kind, caring staff lead by Adamandini who always make the holiday special for guests.

Paradise that is Konnos Bay

As for every year since 1995 we stayed at Konnos Bay Hotel Apartments for three weeks in September 2018. Our holidaywas as good as it always is and the familiarity  only makes the experience sweeter. Having explored Cyprus extensively over 24 years we know the island well, and our main reason for staying at Konnos Bay Hotel Apartments is that of relaxing in a perfect (for us) environment. We always have the same apartment overlooking the beautiful bay. and we swim in the crystal clear waters twice a day (morning and afternoon) for at least an hour or more on each occasion. For those who want a more active time, Mike's Water Sports offers a complete range of activities, with safety as the prine consideration.

We have made many Cypriot friends over the years, amonst them the manager Adamandini ably supported by Tsonga. The care and attention and support from Adamandini is second to none, and she will solve any problem which may arise, again ably supported by Tsonga. It is not just us who gets this support, although we are made to feel special, Adamandini makes every guest feel special. There were small improvements this year, with new beds and mattresses, but the same feeling of contentment made the holiday as special as it always is. 

Perhaps what makes Konnos Bay special for us is the wonderful view of the bay, and, even the walk down from our apartment to the beach in the rural settings. We spend a lot of time just relaxing on our balcony, reading lots of books, swimming in the crystal clear warm sea. 

The rooms have a kettle, a toaster and a microwave (the microwave is a welcome recent addition. We usually have breakfast in our apartment and generally eat out every evening. This year we discovered a new restaurant in Protars (Island Affair) and it has become our favourate (I have posted a seperate review of this restaurant). I should say that Pirillis restaurant at Konnos Bay has greaty inoroved, and can also be recommended.

We always have a car, which generally we use only for going oput in the evenings and shopping at the quite large Lidl store for basics such as milk, water, etc but they do have an excellent selection of wine, spirits, etc. We rent our car from Windmills Car Rental in Protaras, and I have previously posted a review on that service, which is excellent value and totally reliable. Having said that, for those who do not want a car, there is an excellent bus service right outside Konnos Bay Hotel Apartment, and very cheap,

I would strongly recommend Konnos Bay Hotel Apartmens for a totally relaxing holiday, more so, but different, from staying in a five star hotel! Will we be returning to Konnos Bay in 2019? Well I will be 84 and my wife 79, so,"God willing, we will!

Another Perfect Holiday!

This is an overdue review but I have visited this hotel 4 times with my family as we absolutely loved Cyprus and wanted to keep coming back.
Firstly the location is incredible, it is quiet and secluded, the hotel is directly above the beach and it is a long walk down to the beach itself but if you are mobile enough it's worth the walk as it's beautiful on the way down. Around the corner is Ghrekos Point which is the furthest point of the island and stunning. 
Unfortunately this is where the positives end for the most part, we visited in 2007, 2009, 2011 and 2013 and we found that no improvements were ever made each time. For example the pool ladder had come away from the wall making it very unstable in our first visit it 2007, this still had not been fixed by our last visit in 2013. Also, in 2011 my brother, sister and I shared an apartment room on the very top floor, the only one on the floor itself and the balcony was basically on the roof, this was a great room and better equipped for 3 people and privacy, we requested this room well in advance for our final visit it 2013 and found that there were no perks for being repeat and loyal customers and found while we were there in 2013 that this room wasn't even occupied at the time! 
The owner and family took up several tables joined together at meal times leaving very little space for actual customers.
Some of the waiting staff were lovely but the receptionists were rude and the maintenance man wasn't able to communicate at all and could not fix any of the problems we had with lights and air con. And when we asked for maintenance help as we had a huge ants nest in the room we were given a can of ant spray and no assistance. 
The hotel was perfect at first as it was small and family friendly, however on returning a few times we saw the truth of the things that never get fixed or refurbished,  the selfish behaviours of the owners and families, and the lack of perks for being a loyal returning customer.

X4 visits 

We stayed here, 3 of us in the family suite - one double bedroom and the sofa beds in the kitchen room. We had the end of corridor room, with a big sea-view balcony and the room was very spacious.

The best thing about this location, is the view of the sea and the view of Konnos bay - unspoiled view directly down to the sea. This makes this location so so good.

Overall, the apartments are quite old and basic - and they probably will be renovated at some time. If you dont mind basic accommodation, then this is a good place because the location and proximity to Konnos Bay (one of the best beaches on the island and area) is so close. the view of the Bay is much better than the sea view rooms at the nearby Grecian Hotel. 

Also, i highly recommend you eat at Spartiatis restaurant which is a few minutes' walk from the apartments.

Good value, for excellent location and views

The picture fir this review is wrong. There is no swimming pool or restuarant. This was the hotel not the apartments. The hotel is abandoned. The apartments are a little tired but reasonably priced. The beach and Blue Lagoon were wonderful.
