Does anyone know the price for a family ticket in to the water park in Paphos - its shows 86 euros for 2 adults 2 kids on the web site but says there are special offers for family but doesnt list the price. Also, apart from boat trips can anyone recommend any day trips/excursions from the Aliathon? Thanks

Transfer was 25 mins or so, only stop for us was the Aliathon on the way there, a couple of stops en route on the return journey..

Just returned from Aliathon on Sunday with 3 Kids 15,12 & 6 we had an amazing time plenty of tears on the way home. We stayed in the old part but our apartment was huge 2 bedrooms 2 bathrooms air con in every room and it was sub zero it was quieter than the fishing village which was great at night.
The kids joined the kids clubs and that was the last I seen of them for 2 weeks! :D
We went all inclusive and the food was great. They do like you cover up a bit for breakfast & lunch - just a pair of shorts over your bikini is fine, and my husband and son wore 3/4 pants and t-shirts for the evening meal but the girls wore shorts and nobody seemed to mind.
The entertainment at night was fantastic and the team worked really hard especially Kieron (this man has the shortest legs in the world) we ended up winning a bottle of wine 480 euros and a few appearances on stage and its hot up there!! If you only go once make sure its to Rock the room.
Loads of entertainment in the day archery,football,quizzies, golf,raft racing, water walking,canoeing for adults and kids.
First choice offer swimming lessons and we took our 6 year old frightened non swimmer. 2 weeks later she swims like a fish and is the proud owner of a 100mtr badge, the swim instructors were unbelievable and I thought it was worth every penny. If you want a late check out do as we did and book it before you go there we no rooms left on our last day as they were all pre-booked.
Only complaint - I'm back home :( . Hope you all enjoy it as much as we did and don't forget for factor 50. Its that hot!!.
PS:In all the years of going abroad I have never been bit of a mozzie until now I was eaten alive

Hi DebAnt and welcome to HT!

We would appreciate it if you could copy and paste your review into our Hotel Reviews site at the top of the page.

Thanks.

I've been emailing the Aliathon asking for our room to be located on a higher floor as we don't like it on the ground floor. They emailed back to say that all the kid's suites are on the ground floor - never mind. Also, I tried to pre-book a late checkout both with first choice and direct through the hotel but no joy, they say they just can't do it in peak season and we'll have to try when we get there. Shame really as first choice changed our flights from decent early evening ones to 11.50pm at night. :(

How odd is that DebAnt, we normally get bitten to death by mozzies (did at the HV Turkey) and we never got one bite between us at the Aliathon.

Our unconfident 8 year old learnt to swim there too, Vicky the instructor was fab!!

Hi everyone for all those staying in a one bed deluxe, don't you think the rooms are a bit on the small side. :(

Just got back last night. The restrictions on the all inclusive has now been lifted and you are allowed to go for lunch after checking out at noon. It was a lovely surprise yesterday.

Cheers Hankpotter, the one thing i hate is long transfers but 25 mins is fine. :tup

Oh thats not good having your flights changed to such a late one then not even being offered the chance of a late check-out Casper.Also we asked for a middle to top apartment aswell so it looks like we'll have to settle for ground floor aswell! I hope we get a good location one - would love to be near the pool and the clubs for the kids!!!!! :think

my kids are wondering about the kids club activities ?? they are 8 nearly 9 and think that the 6-8 kids club may be a bit too young for them, any idea what they do at that club and is the in2action stuff seperate to the kids club or the same thing ?
Also, I have an aspiring singer/dancer/actress of a daughter and she wondererd if Stagecoach was up & running, the cost and if it is any good ?

Cheers !

info@aliathonvillage.com there you go gina christos is very helpful

HappyHammer,

With regard to the question regarding Stagecoach. My daughter has done this a couple of times now - HV Turkey and HV Majorca and to be honest it was not worth the money we paid (can't remember the cost but it was quite expensive). All they did was learnt a couple of songs as a group and sang them to the parents at the end of the week. No acting or dancing.

Please don't let me put you off as everybody has their own opinion but I would wait till you get there and see what they are doing before you sign your daughter up.
