My partner & I stayed here with our 5 & 8 year old last week. I decided to post a review as I found it so useful reading previous reviews before going myself.

The first impression is of grandeur as you enter the reception with cool marble & chandeliers. The reception staff are efficient & polite (if not particularly friendly) & we had no delays in being checked into our room. Our bags were taken up by a porter which was welcomed.

We had booked a kids suite as this provides a room that can be partitioned off for privacy with bunk beds & a separate TV for the kids. We were a little disappointed with the size of the room though as there was very little extra space, even with the kids bit at the end. Beware that if you close the partitions the kids section does not receive the air conditioning. However, there was plenty of storage space, the room was clean & there were plenty of towels, blankets & the bathroom was spacious with two showers.

The balcony was large although we didn't have the doors open to this very often as the air conditioning would switch off. This, by the way, was efficient, although required your room card to operate so make sure you get two so that you can leave it in when you go out.

The room was cleaned every day & was pretty thorough - our 5 yr old made greasy handprints with his suntan lotion all over the mirror & they were cleaned off the next morning.

The pool was a hit with the kids & was very safe & clean. I agree with previous posts about it being a little tired around the edges but it didn't detract from the overall enjoyment. I liked the ability to order poolside drinks from waiting staff who would wander past regularly & this cost no extra than going up to the bar. The hotel also provided towels for your use at the pool. As we went in peak time I fully expected to have problems finding sunloungers & if you arrived at the pool between 11am & 2pm you'd be lucky to find one. Again, though, I just set my alarm for 7am, reserved two sunbeds (if you can't beat 'em...) & then went back to sleep. I expect out of peak season there isn't a problem at any time of day.

I thought the cost of food & drink within the hotel were pretty high. It cost the equivalent of

We stayed at this hotel for our Honeymoon.
On arriving at the hotel we were greeted by a porter who offered to take our bags and on checking in we were told that we had been upgraded to a executive suite as we were on our honeymoon.
In the room was a bottle of sparkling wine and a fruit basket to welcome us.

On exploring the hotel we found lots of pools, the Nissi bay supermarket and a private beech.
Shops within the hotel were not always open and one not at all while we were there.
Staff were very friendly, as were the holiday reps.
Food was nice and you never had to wait long for room service.
I could not find fault with this hotel

We stayed at Adams Beach from Sept 10 - 15, our first visit to Cyprus.

Overall, the hotel is good. Excellent breakfast, friendly staff, good rooms.

The pool area is getting tired - planted areas are scruffy, lots of litter around edges, concreted areas beginning to crumble. Pool pumps, fountains etc. were switched on late every day (as late as 11am one day) and switched off early (usually 4.30pm) despite pool opening hours being 8am until sunset. We got the impression that pool staff were keen to get rid of you!

There is as far as we are concerned a huge minus for the location of the hotel, which nobody seems to mention (so maybe it's just us!). At the front of the hotel, where the most expensive full sea-view rooms are located, is the Nissi Bay beach bar. This opens every day at 9am and closes at 6pm. From midday until 6pm it pumps out garage and rap music at full volume, including DJ commentary. The consequent 'thump, thump, thump.....' of this 'music' can be heard and felt throughout all external areas of the hotel and makes sitting out on the balcony of your full sea-view room during these hours near impossible (unless you can put up with the noise). This didn't spoil the holiday for us, but we would not have stayed at Adams Beach had we known or been warned about the beach bar, nor will we return to this particular hotel.

We travelled to Cyprus in sept 2004, for our wedding we had 45 people come with us, we had our reception at the adams beach it was absolutley amazing we couldnt fault it in any-way, we up graded to the honeymoon suite for the wedding night, which we would definately recommened, the hotel was excellent in all areas, we where travelling with a one year asnd he was well catered for, we are returning to the hotel in sedpt 2006, and we can't wait.

We stayed at Adams Beach in Nissi bay for two weeks and what a fantastic two weeks we had, other than one day visiting the waterpark, we never left the hotel,it was fab.

On arrival we were swiftly checked into our kids suite that we had upgraded to, the helpful porter took our luggage to the top floor and we opened the doors to a beautiful pool and sea view it was perfect.

The room consisted of a double bed and two bunkbeds separated by sliding doors, it was lovely and spotless clean, however that evening when the children went to bed and we closed the doors to their section of the room, this also blocked out the aircon to them and sleeping with no aircon in july temps is impossible, so we had to open the doors again to allow the children to sleep !

As we had paid an upgrade fee of

2nd year in a row we've stayed here and again it was absolutely fab. Met loads of people especially families with similar aged teens to myself (17/18).

It was in the perfect location, literally a 1 min walk 2 the nissi beach (class) and a 10 min taxi ride to the nightlife of Ayia Napa itself. Its out of it just enough to get a decent night sleep and the staff are cool with youngsters strolling in at 3/4a.m as long as your not too rowdy.

I'd definitely recommend the hotel.

On arrival at this fabulous hotel our luggage was brought to our very spacious side sea view room by a porter. The room was very spacious and spotlessly clean, and was cleaned every day. The whole hotel was spotless and we couln't fault the communal areas.

The breakfast was great with huge choice and you were brought to a clean and set table by a waiter not trying to find a clean table among the mass of used ones (as we previously found in the Napa Mermaid).

The only fault we would have was the same piano player / singer in the bar every night but this did not affect us as we go were out every night.

There are so many restaurants in Ayia Napa you would be mad to stay in at night.

This was our 5th visit to cyprus having previously stayed in the Mermaid (twice), Bella Napa and the Grecian Sands and this is by far the best hotel in Ayia Napa so much so we are looking forward to our return visit on July 3rd this year.

We stayed at the hotel for two weeks and actually went over to get married. I can
