There is an Aqua Park in Limassol but is that too far for you?

Looks like you'll be going to one in the East!

There is only one waterpark in Limassol now, Fasouri which opens on 1st May. Wet n Wild closed down a while back.

Pafos' Aphrodite Waterpark also opens 1st May.

There is a small waterpark very close to where you are staying. It sits between Pernera and Protaras so within easy walking distance. Have to say it looked a bit shoddy and seemed quite expensive for what you were getting. Don't know when it opens for the season.

Hi Jokian.

We also went to the Papantonia last year and we are going back again in June.

We took our 4 & 5 year olds to the Waterpark in Ayia Napa. They loved it as most rides you can go down on together (ie in the rubber rings or in the inflatable boats). There is also the lazy river, wave pool etc that they will enjoy.

We were advised not to go to the waterpark in Pernera as the pool water in there is supposed to be a bit dodgy and the local travel agents were not allowed to take any water samples after some people became ill after visiting.

If you have any more questons about the Papantonia or water park I will try and help.

Cheers.

If you could tell me any details about the Papantinia, I'd be really grateful.

Things like:

How long does it take to walk to Protaras (realistically!)

Is there anough to do in Pernera?

THe Kids Club is it a good one? Can you leave the hotel and go out whilst your child is in the Club? We have a mobile for contacts.

Erm, anything else really!

Normally, we just go on holiday and find things out when we get there, but now we've got a 4 year old, I want to be sure about a few things!!!

If you're going back to the Papantonia, I'm guessing you enjoyed it

Hi Jokian.

It takes about 20-25 mins to walk to Protartas along the beach track, which we managed with our two kids.

It depends what you want to do in Pernera? Most days we were either by the pool or down on the beach as that's what the kids wanted to do. We went to the water park in Napa one day, jeep safari another day and also a boat trip. We booked all of these through the travel agent in Pernera (South African lady i think) as it was cheaper than the reps.

We found this kids club to be the best one yet! There are 3 sessions a day i think and the kids can also have an early tea with the other kids and reps if they wish. We went in the 2nd & 3rd week of June and they max they ever had in the club was about 7 kids, which meant it wasn't over crowded and the kids all made friends. The kids reps were really good too. They normally had a different theme in the kids club everyday (water theme, spooky theme, pirates etc).
I don't think they like you leaving the hotel, but if you give them you mobile number this shouln't be a problem if you are only across the road in one of the pubs.

Also remember that blokes are supposed to wear long trousers in the evening when eating in the restaurant. We did see a couple of blokes get turned away and asked to put on long trousers when entering the restaurant.

The pool's are also excellent and enough shallow ends for the kids. We didn't hear of anybody picking up any infections from the pool and saw the pool's being cleaned every morning about 7.00am.

Anything else you want to know?

Cheers.

South African lady i think

the South African ladies are Liza and Sue at L.S Travel - almost next door to Isaacs apartments and next door to Herbies dive place.

It says "Christina Travel" above the door, but that's another story
