Paphos Harbour unfortunately failed to impress me having visited other places and was very small compared to somewhere like Evissa Town in Ibiza which is excellent both day and night.
There was very little to do in the Harbour and only kept our interest for a very small period of time. Unfortunately from what we could see there was very little in the way of personality here, it was all tacky gift shops not selling much in the way of anything worth buying, and very little in the way of quality Cypriot goods. The harbour itself was pleasant with a few nice bars and what looked like some decent sea food restaurants (although we didn't dine in the harbour).
We didn't go to "Bar Street" as its locally known but did pass through it, it didn't appeal to me at all. It was all neon signs and British and Irish pubs.
The Paphos market again was a disappointment. Instead of a bustling local market with Cypriot goods been sold, you got another gut full of tacky British inspired gift shops with very little personality, all selling the same sort of thing. We did however find one nice little shop here selling Cypriot lace and we bought some of this from the very friendly lady here. However the market has very little for people seeking the culture of the island and doesn't offer anything like the local goods such as again Evissa market and also other places I have visited such as Casablanca in Morocco which when you visit you a instantly immersed in local traditions and culture. I really couldn't recommend Paphos unfortunately from what I saw, its redeeming factor is its extremely friendly people.
The airport is also terrible, very crowded, badly organised, hot, lacks clean facilities. It took over an hour for our luggage to come through never mind collecting it.
The rest of the island is worth visiting. We went on a jeep safari to Akamas which was excellent and really good fun. Our driver was really good not only in his off road driving but also his local knowledge which he was eager to share. We saw the gorge, turtle beach and Aphrodite's bathes while driving around the local countryside on dirt tracks. All but the Aphrodite's baths where well worth it, the later was a little bit of a disappointment.
We also went of a Catamaran ride from Paphos harbour, this again was very good and gave us a good chance to going swimming in uninhabited bays, enjoy a few glasses of our favourite drink, and also enjoy a decent meal at sea (although the choice for vegetarians was limited but sufficient). Our excursions where booked through Thomson.

We flew with Thomson direct to Paphos and it has to be said you must be prepared for a wait going both ways....the airport is military so be ready for a hot and sticky wait to collect bags or check in. Transfers however were very efficient.
Now on to the main points....
Hotel is situated about 15 mins from the main town...you can catch the bus for about a 80cents (intersting ride) or expect to pay about £5 for a taxi to the harbour (bus driving can be a bit hairy so be prepared). Nice place to visit but not a huge amount going on.

We found Paphos to be as clean as a popular holiday resort gets. There didn't seem to be a lot of litter around and the promenade, harbour area and shopping centres were clean. The only problem would be for somebody with mobility difficulties as some of the pavements are uneven.
Entertainment in the resort was ok. Plenty of bars and clubs, but people hassling you to go into theirs. There was also a bowling alley and snooker hall for teenagers. The disappointing bit for us was that there were no typical Greek tavernas with Greek dancing, which we'd been looking forward to. Although we knew we were abroad, we could have been anywhere on the Med.
The beach wasn't disappointing for us, as we'd rather stay by the pool, but for people who like a beach holiday then this isn't really the resort for them as it was quite small and the sea tends to be rough. We'd read reviews about Coral Bay and we were disappointed, as it was small and overcrowded. I think people tend to talk it up as it is the only safe beach in the area, but it wasn't anything to write home about.
I would stay in the resort again, but only if we were looking for a totally relaxing holiday with no character.
The highlight of the holiday for us was the daytrip to Egypt by air. I'd recommend it to anybody. You fly out ealry to Cairo and during the course of the day, you get to visit the Citadel, the Pyrimids and Sphinx and Cairo museum, where the tresures of Tuthankamun are on display. The day also includes a five star buffet at one of Cairo's top hotels and a cruise down the Nile at sunset. It's a long day (we didn't get back to our hotel until 11:30), but it's well worth it. It costs £195 per eprson and can be booked through your rep.

Paphos seemed to have something for everyone - if you wanted lively nightlife head to Bar Street, if you want something a little more traditional or romantic head for the harbour or the restaurants in the quieter side streets. There are some really nice historic sites to visit close by.
Beaches are not that good unless you head out of Paphos towards the airport near to the Louis Patheon Hotel.

The main road in Paphos becomes a boy racers paradise at night with Cyprian posers racing down the coastal road. The resort has a lively Bar Street strip with numerous bars, not enough for a keen clubber but plenty for a good night out. Restaurant choice is very good. It is worth walking down to the harbour but be warned the restaurants are full of locals and become very crowded in the late evening. You will find coffee bars such as starbucks and even a Macdonalds and KFC, it appears that Paphos has lost the traditional feel.
