Aphrodite Sands Resort

Absolutely loved it here. Was very clean. Pool area was great and there were always free beds. Apartment was lovely & clean. Peter who works there was just amazing! Goes out of his way to help you. Gave us information on places to go and helped with us renting a car. Could contact him if needed. Was so friendly. Local mini market and places to eat and drink about 5/10 minute walk. I would definitely stay here again.

What a wonderful little gem the Aphrodite Sands is. We stayed in a 3 bedroom apartment with an enormous balcony overlooking the pool. It was well furnished and even had a washing machine which was a welcome addition. There were a few minor issues like a crack in the bath, and one of the outside chairs was so frayed it broke during our stay but it was replaced quickly. The other thing I noticed was the neighbouring apartment had sun loungers on the balcony but we didn’t which was a shame. The pool area was beautifully maintained and despite being there in August we never had any issue getting sun beds, even when we didn’t go out until mid morning. The spa and gym were great too. My son spent a fair bit of time in the gym and I enjoyed a very reasonably priced massage in the spa. The apartments are located about a 15 minute walk from the beach and there is a great little beach bar there, along with sun loungers and umbrellas on the beach. The local village centre is only a 5 minute walk away has some lovely restaurants and a well stocked mini market. Some people staying at the apartments didn’t have cars but I would say a hire car is vital to really enjoy the area and get further afield as Cyprus has so much to offer. The icing on the cake was the manager Peter who was so friendly and accommodating. He was always available and happy to chat and offer advice.

A lovely quiet and pretty location, despite being only 10 mins from the airport. It should cost about €30/35 euros to get from the airport to the apartments in a taxi. Spacious and comfortable apartments, basic style but very clean. Washing machine in apartment and excellent air conditioning. Huge private terrace over looking the pool which is lovely. The terraces have a table and chairs and ours also had 2 loungers and an airer for drying washing which everybody seems to use. People don’t drape towels over the balcony’s, so it’s a pretty place to sit! The outside pool area is lovely. The apartments are very attractive. Nice padded sun loungers, there are a few which are not quite so nice but mostly good and there are plenty. Cleaners prepare the area every morning, gardens kept nicely. It’s a quiet resort, no music, very relaxed and very nice guests when we were there. 5 minute walk to 5 restaurants in Mandria, our favourite was The Tavern, excellent Thai food. Also little supermarket which has everything you need. Walk to Mandria beach 20 minutes, beautiful sunsets and rustic very friendly bar. Nice loungers, parasols and new clean facilities. Taxi to Paphos is €30/35 euros. Now the best bit…..Peter and Angela, the resort hosts. You couldn’t meet a lovelier Cypriot couple. They are the most welcoming and genuinely good people. They greeted us by name when we arrived and welcomed us like family. They are the cherry on the top of Aphrodite Sands. Also Christos, who looks after the pool and maintenance, a genuinely lovely man. Having been into Paphos to visit friends at their hotel, I was very pleased to get back to Aphrodite sands, it was not comparable! Peaceful and calm. I would certainly go back.

Very clean All the staff very helpful Lovely apartments- as a family of 7 we had more than enough room Late 12 noon check out helps too Only a 5 min walk to the mini market and local restaurants , which all serve lovely food Car hire recommended if you want to explore further

We have just came back from this holiday and the Aphrodite Sands did not disappoint Peter the manager was very friendly and helped us book a car and provided information about places to visit The accommodation was lovely a home from home feel with everything we needed We had a few minor issues in our room but Peter came within a few minutes of asking and quickly resolved the problem The only criticism is that our room was only cleaned once and towels changed once for a weeks holiday it could have been done a little more The pool area was clean and quiet, there was no issue with sun beds there was plenty to choose from it was lovely and relaxing The location is about 20minutes drive from Paphos centre however there is a lovely square about 5 minutes walk with a few restaurants there was a lovely atmosphere there and the staff in all the restaurants were very friendly I would definitely recommend this hotel and would book again in the future

Just came home on Thursday 20th June, after a fab week here. Peter was a lovely man, welcomed us as soon as we arrived. We had a lovely 2 bed apartment with everything you need . Couldn't fault anything. We loved our week here, and would highly recommend this place. Thanks for everything Peter .

If you want to relax, Aphrodite sands is the best place ever. I have travelled all over the world, and this was by far the safest, quietest and most relaxing holiday I’ve ever had. I went with a group of girlfriends a week after UK half term, it was quiet, hot, no long cues at the water park, plenty of choice for sun beds etc. It is self catering, however the apartment was well equipped for cooking and there is plenty of restaurants, a mini mart and bars within a 5 minute walk that are excellent value for money, and best of all, not one “looky” seller trying to grab your attention, totally safe and peaceful. We did have some construction noise however some of the apartments are residential and privately owned, so this was I no fault of the resort. The staff were quick to apologise and intervene, as well as offer us sauna time (which we politely declined due to the heat) but they were so very kind and I wouldn’t fault the stay because everything else was perfect. 10/10 recommend for calm and relax

We re-booked here for 7 nights as it’s the perfect location for birdwatching during spring migration. We emailed before and asked for a room facing the fields. The room allocated was more than we had expected. We had a 2-bed, 3 bathroom apartment. Fully stocked and a perfect little terraced garden with balconies each side of the apartment. Plenty of parking. Large fridge, freezer. Microwave, oven, kettle etc Salt, pepper, cutlery, plates, cooking utensils all included. Lots of places to eat in Mandria village. We had a late flight on the day of departure and asked if we could keep the room or store our luggage, we were up and out at 5am each day so they advised they could confirm this before we were due to check out. A few hours later we had a text saying we could keep the room for as long as needed that day and this really helped us out and meant we could freshen up before our flight home. We absolutely love this hotel and this is our first choice for every visit to Cyprus. Thanks to all the staff.

Just returned home after a 4 night stay with my husband. We were in a 2 bedroomed apartment over looking the gardens which were nice a d well looked after. We were greeted by Peter on our first night who was super helpful and welcoming. We didn't have a car but enjoyed galavanting onthe local buses! We walked 5 minutes into the square where there are 4 or 5 little restaurants and a little shop. All served lovely food. My only complaint/constructive critiscism is the bed mattress which was rock solid and really hurt my back and the pool area. Nearly half of the sun loungers were broken and a few parasols. It didn't quite match up to the brochure pictures. The pool light came out and was floating around and I actually used the other pool as it looked a bit unsafe. There were also leaves, feathers and insects floating on top of the water, it could of done with been netted a few times during the day. I definitely wouldn't rate the place as a 4 star, more 2 or a 3. But, I think if there was a little bit more attention to detail then it could be a 4. It's a shame really as there is so much potential. Still, it is a nice little place for a few days away and I would return.
