Ayia Marina Chrysochous Vacations from $729

Beautiful surroundings but in the middle of nowhere

Great room, great shower, very comfortable and nice distance from city centre. The gym (open mon-sat) nearby was a lovely touch too!

The food was delicious and the choice was extensive. The staff were efficient, professional and friendly. A special mention to Rositea who is the lovely waitress in the buffet area and looked after us very well. We enjoyed most of the entertainment and our Grandchildren loved the kids club. We stayed in a two room suite overlooking the main pool area. First impressions were of a stylish and spacious accommodation. The beds were very comfortable, but there was no comfortable additional seating. The twin bedroom had literally two beds, a small table and TV, no drawers or chairs or anywhere to put things. There were 3 wardrobes (containing only 12 coat hangers in total) and 2 small drawers in the rest of the suite. On the surface everything looked clean but there were dust balls in the corners and dusty sock and slippers from past occupants under the bed. We were there during the Easter school holidays which was very busy and noisy. Considering the number of rooms the public spaces are quite compact, the sun loungers around the pool are very close together. The quiet pool and adult pool areas are small. Compared to the hotels either side which have nice open garden areas and a chance to sit with a view of the sea and be quiet, the Atlantica Mare hotel is not somewhere to go if you like a peaceful holiday. We wouldn't go again on our own, but our Grandchildren loved it.

If it was possible to give more than 10, I would. This place is definitely worth every penny we spent. 1. Beautiful place, clean and tidy, delicious food in a variety. 2. The dinner restaurants are excellent with a variety of delicious cuisines and styles. 3. All inclusive was excellent. Plenty of varied food throughout the day. Drinks/spicy drinks and more full of surprises and in abundance. 4. And the most important thing is the staff of the hotel. Receptionists are kind and helped us with every passenger (even finding alternative flights and canceling flights) 5. The reception manager Maria was wonderful and kind and upgraded us and took care of our late departure (our flight was early in the morning). We will definitely return to this hotel again.
