Akti Beach Hotel & Village Resort

Awesome hotel. Sunsets are divine frim

We’ve just come back for a 1 week stay at Akti Beach and it was lovely! The food was great with something for everyone each night. We really liked that each night has a theme with our favourite being ‘international’ night. There’s pretty much always food available as they serve pool snacks at 10.30 and 15.30 as well as breakfast lunch and dinner. The pool area is lovely although it was getting incredibly busy and some people were not being very aware of people around them (not the hotel’s fault). The entertainment around the pool is great, always something to do. The hotel is generally clean but it’s quite run down in places- a broken sofa in the reception area as an example. We were given a studio room and on day 4 of our holiday the air conditioning stopped working. The reception staff in the evening were useless at helping us with this and told us to open a window (in 30 degree heat with no breeze) but the lady on reception in the morning was amazing and moved our room after it got flooded from the portable air conditioning unit they gave us. Our new room was fine and had a lovely pool/sea view. The bathrooms really need updating. They have a shower curtain which in both of our rooms were stained and I think this is quite unhygienic to have with the amount of guests using the rooms. The bath was stained and had yellow streaks on it. Some of our towels were also stained. If the bathrooms were updated it would feel a lot cleaner. There’s lots of sunbeds but if you want a good spot you need to get down early. The location is quite difficult- you need public transport to get anywhere. The hotel shuttle bus is good but it’s restricted times so depends on if you’d like to go at certain times. Taxi companies are ripping people off, charging €40 for a 10 minute journey. We ended up using the ‘bolt’ app which is basically uber. It’s still a bit pricey but not as bad as the taxi companies. If you can afford it, get a hire car if you plan on exploring the area or using the supermarket to get snacks (would recommend as the on site shop is a rip off). Overall it was a lovely stay but I wouldn’t come back unless the bathrooms were updated which may sound pathetic to some but a clean bathroom is vital for me as I like to feel clean after I’ve had a shower- not like I’ve caught something

We have just returned from a family trip to Paphos. Hotel Akti village Cyprus. The whole experience was exceptional. The staff were all friendly helpful and accommodating. Right from the transfer from Paphos airport to our resort the hotel was clean and had a quick and friendly check in. Our rooms were lovely and clean . Bed comfortable. The housemaids worked very hard. Had fresh towels every 2nd day. The restaurant and pool food was varied and good. The all inclusive was very good value. Drinks and ice creams. . Pools were lovely and clean. The only complaint was there was not a safe beach at the resort but there is a lovely man made beach 15 mins by shuttle to Coral bay which is lovely and safe for children . Highly recommend visit to harbour and the night cruise with Paphos cruises which we booked through jet2 rep based at hotel. Great value for 79 euros everything included. Very sad to leave . It was one of our best holidays all round. I must mention all the staff work hard and long hours always polite and the children's club was loved by our granddaughter. And kids entertainment. The activity team were absolutely amazing day and night . Great positive attitude and were great with all the guests. The entertainment programme was varied and of good quality to suit most tastes. Fantastic holiday all round. Definitely a 5 star experience holiday
