Akamanthea Holiday Village

A warm and welcoming family-run complex. The area is very quiet and it is the first time we've not done a lot of sightseeing trips as we usually like to explore the areas we stay in. This was exactly what was needed and besides a snorkeling trip to The Blue Lagoon we spent our days by the beach and/or pool. Our room (221) had a kitchen area which we upgraded to. It was a brilliant choice as we could have breakfast when we decided!) The pool was cold. 'but OK once you're in!' The beach is a short walk over a field (be prepared to walk over soil). Phoebe & the rest of the team were all lovely and went out of their way to assist in anything we needed or asked for. Thank you for the late check-out- it helped massively, considering we had an evening departure flight. We have arrived home feeling thoroughly relaxed and happy!

A few days ago, we returned from an off-season stay and we’re absolutely delighted! The hotel is very well maintained, simple yet elegant – rooms were tidy, cleaned regularly. The atmosphere is homely and peaceful, away from the crowds – a perfect place to truly relax. The sea view from our window was breathtaking! We chose the all-inclusive option – the food was delicious and fresh, made from local ingredients. Breakfasts were a bit repetitive, but lunches and dinners were excellent, varied, and always tasty. The pool bar offered a wide selection of drinks, including options beyond the standard all-inclusive menu (purchased separately). The owner is an incredibly warm person, and her piano playing in the evenings created a wonderful atmosphere. The entire staff deserves praise – helpful, kind, and always smiling. We truly felt cared for throughout our stay. It’s a charming, intimate hotel with a soul – perfect for anyone seeking peace, relaxation, and genuine hospitality. Highly recommended!

We cannot praise this wonderful hidden gem Akamanthea Holiday Village enough. We had a very bad start to our 2 week holiday due to failings at another hotel in Latchi, but we discovered Akamanthea. They saved our holiday and welcomed us with open arms. Everything was absolutely perfect - the staff were amazing, friendly and helpful - the food was great - rooms were clean and the whole place had a good relaxed atmosphere. We had a decent size apartment which was well furnished. The location between Latchi and Polis was perfect for trying different places to eat, or the holiday village has a meal available each evening. I can highly recommend this place and would certainly stay here again. Thank you to Phoebe and the family for saving our holiday and making it so special.

We arrived late Saturday night to find plates of food were left for us in the room in case we were hungry which I thought bode extremely well for the rest of the stay! The village hotel is small and intimate with well kept grounds and lovely Staff. Miss Phoebe the owner is lovely and plays the piano in the evenings which was a lovely touch to our stay. Th hotel was lovely and reasonable for the all inclusive offer we had. We went the first week of October and it was just the quiet we needed with a few guests it felt like it was completely ours which was lovely. the pool is not too deep and well kept, the food was lovely and the staff are kinda and attentive. Latchi beach is a short 5-10 walk away across the fields and Polis is 10-15minute taxi. both towns are walkable if you fancied it. would recommend to go in October if you'd like a quiet holiday at a family run hotel.

Visit 5 sept 25 -12th sept 25 - temp 30 ++ every day Others have left reviews saying this is a hidden gem and they was spot on !! This is a family owned place and you can tell it is a labour of love for them. Phoebe (not sure if i've spelt it correctly) the owner is so nice you can tell this is her baby and she is very proud of this and quite rightly so and all of the staff are lovely. The place is nicely laid out, pool area is lovely and there are plenty of sunbeds so none of the towels out at dawn rubbish. At times we were the only ones in / around the pool so it felt like we had a private villa. Not sure what kind of holiday you are after but I don't like anything too much, I don't want sunbeds crammed too close together or music blaring around the pool. Here there is plenty of space and there is music but its not overpowering. We hired a car (hubby loves driving and exploring abroad) and there are plenty of restaurants within a 5 min drive (walk if you want to in that heat) in Polis in one direction and Latchi in the other. There is a beach 5 mins down a dirt track, take shoes its shale lol. There are sandy beaches around and we like exploring and found coral bay which is a good drive but is a gorgeous beach. Latchi is literally 5 mins , this is where the boats leave for the blue lagoon, You can literally walk down and choose which boat you want to go on. The blue lagoon is gorgeous and if you don't fancy going on a big boat you can hire a small boat and they give you full instructions , directions etc. Phoebe is a pianist and if you are lucky you will be invited to a performance by her , she did a little concert for us (weds) and she was so so good !! The hospitality of the Cypriot people is amazing , everyone we met was so so nice. It was our first visit to Cyprus and it wont be our last. The day before we was due to leave my husband asked about checkout time and the response was 'there is no one else due in the tomorrow so no rush' I appreciate that wont happen for everyone but it shows you how nice they all was. Cant wait to go back !!!!

Superb

It's oh so quiet. Having spent the summer recreating my youth (oasis and ibiza) I booked a last minute week to relax stress free in the sun and that's exactly what I got. The hotel rating is fair so it's not perfect but I've paid more for worse. Maybe a few new sunbeds and more choice of fruit for breakfast but nothing that would spoil your stay. Mind only 6 clothes hangers in the wardrobe is a bit light even for a single bloke!! And the fridge is small but fine for me. Apart from that my room was large and the wi-fi great (I was able to stream the England matches no problem the resort doesn't have sports bars). The pool and surrounding area is great (spacious). I didn't move far from it all week and you can be in or out of the sun all day. It was quiet and the breeze from the sea is lovely. I did use the 'secret' path to the beach a couple of times which is only a 5-10 minute walk and not too steep unlike many other island resorts. The beach stretches for miles and is mostly course sand/pebbles. There appears to be free loungers and wi-fi. At least nobody was charging. Great to be in the sea to see the sun setting over the headland at about 19:00. Most nights I made the c30 minute walk to Latchi port. It's quiet there also but there's enough nice restaurants to enjoy, especially if you like fresh seafood dishes. The main road is well lit so I always felt safe walking there and back on the evening but I am rough looking so mostly never worry about that sort of stuff. But there were no street sales people that have become the norm elsewhere so there was never a lot of people about. Again the road isn't too steep. Looks like the area is ripe for development so perhaps it won't be so quiet for long. Whilst I was just looking to relax in the sun you could easily use the hotel as a base to travel to local attractions via hire car or boat trips. There are plenty of parking spaces at the hotel and they drive on the left if you're nervous about driving abroad. Finally the staff were lovely. Always there if you needed them but very low profile. My room was cleaned everyday apart from Sunday. I was also very grateful for being allowed to extend by check out until my 21:00 transfer to the airport for free!!! Fabulous gesture that I'd normally expect to pay for but highlights how lovely and helpful the staff were. In summary if you want a lively stay with everything on your doorstep this isn't for you. If you're looking for stress free relaxation this is just the ticket. You could pay a fortune for a 'wellness' experience or you could just stay here where wellness looks after itself.

What a lovely find this place was, perfect location between Polis and Latchi, we had a studio apartment overlooking the bay which was stunning, large room with modern bathroom with walk in shower, breakfast included which had everything you needed, staff amazing so friendly and helpful, gorgeous pool area, can highly recommend, we will return,, thank you all we so enjoyed our stay.

Lovely, family run apartments. Great pool and the staff are so friendly. Great pool area and lovely varied breakfast buffet. Rooms were spacious, clean and comfortable. Short car ride/taxi ride up into Polis or down to Latchi Harbour. Would definitely recommend.

Nous avons passé 10 nuits très agréables. La chambre était nettoyée quasi quotidiennement. Nous avions un balcon qui donnait sur la mer bien agréable en matinée ou en soirée, Grande chambre avec coin salon, salle de douche grande et fonctionnelle.
