Hi all received my letter this morning from First Choice regarding the changes to the HV and to be quite honest there is nothing that really concerns me so i am still quite happy and excited about going there.

Please keep on topic and discuss the Aliathon Village only in this topic. Any future off topic chit chat, eg departure airports, etc will be deleted.

This is to ensure that members can easily find the information they are looking for.

Thanks.

The Red Sea Holiday Village was due to open the 1st week in June last year and the first guests were moved but all guests from mid June were accomodated there, the difference was this was a complete new build. As I said before there was still some areas where work was ongoing and some faciliities like tennis courts and multi sports area were not complete but it did not spoil our holiday and certainly didnt put us off booking another new village.

Hi, i am going 18th June for 1 week, and was a little concerned, i have spoke to first choice as rec'd my letter regarding man amde beach and restuarnts.

We have decided to still go ahead with teh holiday, unless something else happens and we receive any more letters, then will have to re look at this, but hope everything will be ok as looking foward to going back to cyprus, last went to ayai napi for a week,

So never been to Paphos, if anyone been to phaphos before whats it like.

Cheers

Hi all not long now before the first people go and come back with the reviews. Praying all is good. Is there any one on this forum going in the first week of opening ?

Can't wait to read first reviews, anyone going in next couple of weeks?

Havent heard of anyone on this forum going in the next 2 weeks but i think someone is going end of may. Also keep an eye on holidays uncovered as well just incase people put there reviews on there.

Hello, husband, 4 year old son and I just returned from 1 week AI at Aliathon HV. Thought I would put some general stuff down and then if anyone has any specific questions, happy to try and help.
1. General - had a lovely time ! - New fishing village looks fantastic, big horse-shoe shaped pool around a lighthouse, terracotta coloured accomodation blocks all with balconies or terraces. Everywhere is very clean as it is so new, local staff very pleasant and all First Choice people very friendly.
2. Food - main restaurant for breakfast, lunch & dinner - very good, nice choice, great puddings !!. It is underground and plus Air-con so always cool and no flies. A la cartes - tried both Greek and Mexican - both excellent. There are only these 3 restaurants on the AI deal - you can use a discount card in the others - we didn't try them.
3. Location - about 20 minute walk outside Paphos harbour along good road. Some aircraft noise and didn't find a sandy beach within walking distance. We did get the bus to Coral Bay though which was lovely. E1.20 per person each way and bus stops right outside Aliathon.
4. Facilities not available at time we were there:- High ropes, Kids splash pool (both these are very close to being finished). No sign of any Gym, Sauna, Indoor Pool and no-one seemed to know when they would be open. There will soon be an outdoor stage area for the evening entertainment and you can use the kids playgound but they are putting more equipment in each week.
5. ONLY ONE BIG COMPLAINT - the AI finishes at 12noon on the day of your departure so no lunch / dinner before you fly. We complained to First Choice Rep and were told that it was in small print in brochure. We went to HV in Turkey last year and AI stopped when you were picked up. Did spoil last day a bit but overall we had a great holiday.

Hi Mandalay thanks for your reply its good to hear you had a great holiday. Finally some one to stop all our worries.
just a few questions.
Was all the building work completed ?
Did you have a pool view or was you at the back of the hotel ?
Did you use the kids clubs ?
What type of room did you stay in ?
