Hotel Amathus Beach

Large beachside hotel backing onto a boardwalk where you can walk miles either way. The staff are brilliant and we were upgraded to a very nice junior suite with private plunge pool. It was unusually cold when we visited so we did not get a chance to try out the hotel's small beaches which offer sheltered swimming. Instead, we opted for one of the hotel's adults-only seawater pools which was partially heated (and actually featured the novelty of underwater music). We counted three outdoor pools together with a large indoor heated pool plus a sauna and steam room. There's a very large gym with Technogym equipment plus various studio classes. The gym was open between 06:30 to 21:00 (except weekends when it closed at 20:00). Breakfast consisted of a large buffet spread together with a cooked-to-order egg station. It was all pretty good plus they served very good coffee too. Overall, this hotel is an excellent option if you are staying in Limassol.

This hotel is absolutely gorgeous—words can’t fully capture its stunning appeal. The rooms, facilities, service, and kitchen are all top-notch, leaving families wanting for nothing. The beach is breathtaking, complemented by thrilling water slides, indoor pools, a luxurious spa, a seasonal floating obstacle course, a well-equipped gym, dedicated adult sections, and endless activities to keep kids and teens entertained. This resort delivers a true 5-star experience in every way.

Yet another amazing stay at Amathus.!!Our family really enjoyed a post Christmas 6 day stay and it was the best Christmas gift we could have given our selves. From the moment we got there the staff were polite, helpful and welcoming. We ve enjoyed staying at Amathus so many times but its always a pleasant surprise just how much at home they make us feel especially when travelling with a toddler. Special thanks to Stelios Pillouris, for his top professionalism and care during our stay, to Darianna for always welcoming us during breakfast service (unrivaled breakfast buffet) with a smile and ofcourse all the girls at the kids club who were great with our son !

We had a lovely stay here during w/c 13 April. The beach is perfect for young children to play on, making sandcastles and trying to catch fish and hermit crabs. The weather was fine and sunny, circa 21C most days but felt warmer, and the heated indoor pool made a welcome change for when the outdoor pool was a bit chilly. It was a shame that the kids pool only opened at the end of the week, but the boys still had plenty of fun in the pools that were available. Plenty of nice restaurants nearby in the evenings too and the hotel staff were always lovely with our boys at breakfast. One small thing to be aware of is that large inflatables aren't allowed in the pools (which seemed a little unnecessary given we were the only people in the pool but they were the rules) so just a heads up to save people packing inflatable crocodiles and the like..! As it was, the hotel manager was excellent and upgraded our room for the last couple of nights, completely unexpectedly, which made for a nice end to our holiday. This was our second trip to Amathus Beach and it really ticked all the boxes for us a family with two young boys. I'm sure we'll be back again soon.

A Canadian Army veteran, in the 1970s I did two tours with the UN in Cyprus. In 1974/75 during the troubles Amathus Beach was one of the only hotels to remain open so we used it a lot for 48 hour passes and even some for their 2 week leave. In 1978/79 things were mostly back to normal so my wife could come over for my leave, in February 1979. We spent the first week at Amathus Beach, then on to Paphos and Nicosia, where I was stationed. When we booked a cruise embarking in Limassol I suggested we spend two weeks in Cyprus before boarding. One day we took the city bus from our condo downtown out to the hotel. What a change from 1979 when there were only 2 hotels east of the city, and not much else. Now it's completely built up with high rises, very modern. When we entered the Kalypso dining room I mentioned to the hostess it was 47 years since we'd been there. She was shocked. A few minutes later a gentleman came over, reached out to shake my wife's hand, and said 'Welcome back'. My reply - 'you weren't here in 1979'. But he was. Mario was a very young waiter then, with a picture to prove it, and now supervised the main dining room. Had a great chat with him. Then a great lunch, with the best white, recommended by our server, that we've had since arriving here. They do some decent wines now, unlike in the 1970s! Spoke to several other senior staff who were intrigued by our visit, one in particular who helped us locate the dining room from 1979, now a room for large events. Also spoke to some younger staff who were curious about what things were like in the old days! Overall great hotel, great memories, great lunch, great staff! Thanks for making our trip down memory lane so special.
