Aphrodite Hills Rentals – Apartments

We stayed for 3 nights in Apartment A4, which was very centrally situated about 200m from the Hotel, the village square (shops, restaurants and pub) and the Golf Club. The apartment was very comfortable for two people, with lounge/kitchen, bedroom, bathroom/shower room, and a lovely balcony. The kitchen area was fully equipped with two fridges, washing machine, ceramic hob with four plates, microwave, toaster and kettle, so no excuses for not looking after ourselves. Aphrodite Hills is very big as a resort with interest centred around the golf course, though we were actually here to attend our nieces wedding. Travel to/from the resort is best effected by hire car though there is a public service bus calls every 30 mins in daytime, which I believe costs 2 euros and takes about 45mins to get into central Paphos. The climate is excellent, though at this time of year (April) it gets quite cold at nights, so bring a jacket or warm top. The other thing is that there always seems to be a breeze off the sea, which means there are very few bugs/flies to bother you.

Good location

Beautiful place, was there for my friends wedding and they couldn't have picked a better location.

This was a really lovely apartment. Aphrodite Hills is a "village" with real-sized apartments and villas. We chose to book through Expedia because it said the accommodation was 0.1km from the village centre, but this one was about 1km away - 10 minutes with a walking shortcut. Apartment made up for it but glad we had a car! There was a lovely pool a few minutes from the apartment and a great view from the balcony towards the sea. Restaurants in the village centre were very nice but a bit pricy (mains from 15 to 20 euros). Staff were welcoming and everything efficiently run.

Apartments are lovely, gardens & pool areas clean & well kept Staff are lovely & could not be more helpful Shops / bars & restaurants on site offer great choice Only criticism was our villa was on the main road through the site and from Friday night through until Sunday night (including all night) there were lorries back & forth along the road which was very noisy - try to avoid apartments on the road!

We hired a 3 bedroom junior villa with private pool. The villa was fantastic and in a great position overlooking the golf clubhouse and within easy walking distance of all the facilities we needed as a family. The soccer school and riding stables kept our two children fabulously busy. The Village Square restaurants, shops and supermarket were all of a good quality and, for the setting, relatively reasonably priced. All in all an excellent 6 day experience!

Overall, it was pleasant. The villa was breathtaking, the setting was beautiful but the constant interruptions from gardeners, pool maintenance and cleaners became intolerable and spoiled things for us. I believed I was in a private setting but for instance, when I'm clambering out of the pool, I didn't expect someone to be standing behind me shouting "hello". Thank goodness I don't have a heart condition. I'm not cross with the staff - you could see they were embarrassed but (another instance) sending staff to treat bald bits of grass by throwing fertiliser on it, which was right near the pool was incomprehensible. They were polite and I felt for them but I'm quite a private shy person and not an exhibitionist so although I had a full swim suit on and sarong, I wasn't happy. Remember not everyone is there just for a holiday. I was on business as well as trying to recouperate from a very traumatic year. But that's just me.

Overall it was a fantastic place to stay. Very well maintained site, fantastic views, the accommodation was excellent; clean, well equipped. The wifi in the villa was poor, particularly upstairs. Do not have breakfast at the Golf Club, very expensive, average quality (not exactly an english breakfast), and very poor service. The stay was slightly marred due to confusion over booking and cost.

The complex is nice, and in very good condition. It's a big place, and there's plenty to do there. Breakfast in the Golf Club is poor, although the staff are nice, the food is average at best. We expected a buffet style breakfast and what we got was a limited menu of choice. We could've paid more for other items on the menu, but decided against it and ate elsewhere. The other restaurants are reasonable, and in our opinion, the Italian and the Pub had the best food. We did not try the Indian restaurant. The Villa was lovely, and very well equipped. There a swimming pools local to the villas, which is good, and a very well equipped gym (best I've seen in a hotel ). The resort is a little isolated, but taxis to Paphos, Pissouri etc are reasonable, although the bus is very very cheap, and air conditioned so a good option if you don't want to pay for a cab. We didn't use the hotel facilities, but we talked to a couple who were All Inclusive and they said the food was good, and lots of choice.

The apartment furniture was the main problem, beds were cheap and uncomfortable, likewise the sofa was falling apart! Communal pool was nice but a walk away.
