Located on the Makronissos peninsula, on the south-eastern coast of Cyprus, the hotel is located in retreat of the main road connecting the tourist resort to Larnaca. About 3 miles away from the picturesque centre of Ayia Napa and 24 miles away from Larnaca international airport.
The hotel is worthy of international standards with its large and clean rooms. Pictures, furnished balcony, mirrors, lamps: the care put into the harmonious decor is apparent. The Asterias offers 199 rooms, each of about 210 square feet, with comfortable twin beds, plus a small suite. Some double rooms can easily house up to four people thanks to multilevel beds. Different views are offered: frontal or lateral of the sea, or even of the garden. All of them are pleasant! All rooms offer all sorts of comfort: a large TV (20 channels), radio, a mini-bar ( empty), air-conditioning, direct telephone line, a safe (paying), an incorporate ironing board, a hair-dryer. The bathrooms, equipped with an incorporate vanity unit with a marble sink, have a bathtub with a shower, beach towels, razor outlet and welcome products.
The Hadjisoteriou family, which has been in the hotel industry since 1971, is at the head of the Asterias, built in 1983. Located in a peaceful hotel area, the hotelier complex spreads on 750,000 square feet, and faces the sea. Renovated yearly, this 4-storey air-conditioned hotel has a lot of marble, from the large reception area to the bathrooms. Take notice of the items and statues that are displayed in the common areas. Amateurs will love it! Specially those in the large lounge room with the TV, even though the showcases are cluterred. A large and beautiful outdoor pool will delight everybody, plus another one beside it, dedicated for kids. Deckchairs and sunshades are spread around it. A third pool - very bright - is covered. Here you will find the fitness centre with a gym (tiled floors), jacuzzi, sauna... The spaces dedicated to games are numerous: a large room with a pleasant setting, a billiard table, two ping-pong tables, an outdoor covered area with video games, a playground on the lawn with colourful facilities and a nice kids club.
An Anglo-Saxon breakfast buffet is served from 7.00am to 10.00am on the sundeck of the main restaurant facing the pool, lunch from 1.00pm to 2.30pm and dinner from 7.00pm to 9.30pm. The ''Famagousta'' offers a neat setting - all in red and white - and an elegant and classical atmosphere in the evening. Grills, snacks and other specialities are served at noon. A varied evening buffet with different daily themes (over a period of 15 days) or an à la carte menu. In addition, the main indoor bar offers a large choice of cocktails. The circular counter assures good service. The outdoor ''Golden Sands'' bar/snack of the pool and the beach, offers light meals and drinks.
A light sandy beach is right in the front of the hotel. This type of beach is a rare thing in the south of Cyprus. There are lots of deckchairs with matresses and sunshades. Awarded a blue flag, proof of cleanness, the beach is populated by the hotel's guests as locals prefer to go to Nissi beach where there are many activities. Ideal for families, the beach is quiet, supervised and equipped with showers, water sports clubs and restaurants. Only a few seaweeds spoil the clarity of the water.
The Asterias opens its doors from April to the 10th of November every year. Without a doubt, the hotel can boast about having one of the most beautiful beaches in Southern Cyprus. Do not deprive yourself of this pleasure and enjoy it! An animation team of 8 seasoned animators speak English, German, Italian and French and organize sportive and festive activities on a daily basis. Different artists are also invited to present magic, music, folk dances (Greek and Cypriot) shows... Every evening, the hotel organises different shows in the bar's veranda. The conference rooms host weddings, meetings, special evenings, seminars... The hotel's clients are usually individuals and mainly German, then English, Swiss and French, but also Cypriot. Lots of families appreciate the services provided by the hotel. Note: An area for exhibitions, reception and room service 24/7, Internet access.

Très bon hôtel avec des services de qualité, mais la foule y est très abondante.

The Aeneas hotel offers an excellent level of services in a polished atmosphere and an architecture of a Mediterranean inspiration. Built a short distance from the beach, it has a lagoon-type pool of a record size that serpentines through the entire hotel just like a lagoon. A rather peaceful atmosphere. Kids will love it! Beautiful active or restful vacations await you...
The Adams Beach enjoys a privileged location on the verge of the beautiful Nissi Bay beach. It offers quality services in all areas and is suitable mainly for families with children because of its ''water park'' theme and the fact that it does not offer a lot of privacy.
The first hotel built in Ayia Napa, the Nissi Beach offers one of the nicest locations. Its unique location on one of the most beautiful bays of the island, the size of the site decorated with taste, the quality and the number of facilities will delight all types of clients: sports people, those seeking peace and tranquility, couples with or without kids - everyone will live together here without any problems. Pictos: well located, sports, family, seaside, animation, rest.
This resort is a touristic village built in a traditional Mediterranean style. This holiday resort is located in south-eastern Cyprus, in the small fishing village of ''Ayia Napa''. The latter has become the most modern and the most popular place of the island. The Thalassaki is a peaceful place because it offers a large space not far from the sea among numerous touristic facilities. An ideal destination for those seeking independent vacations.
The first hotel in Ayia Napa when coming from Larnaca, the Dome offers quietness, quality services and a stunning setting for seaside vacations. Surrounded by greenery, the hotel is located between two bays on the Ayia Napa peninsula. A nice atmosphere in this fully equipped resort, with your feet almost in the water of the Mediterranean Sea.
Located in the tourist resort village of Ayia Napa, the Panas Holiday Village is a club that provides simple services, particularly suitable for families. The overall architecture is pleasant; the guest rooms are actually little apartments with a kitchen area and the atmosphere is very friendly. It is a shame, however, about the minimal equipment and the lack of a beach, despite the hotel's location on the seafront. You will find a public beach 200m away.
The So Nice Boutique Suites is one of the few hotels in Ayia Napa that makes a real effort with its decor, which is quite a surprise in such a young and party-oriented resort village. As a result, it is head and shoulders above the rest of the establishments here. With a tantalising and contemporary ambiance, this hotel offering 57 apartments is probably best suited for guests looking for an establishment with plenty of character and a dynamic staff. This is a great place, so it is a pity there is not much to do apart from sitting on the beach.
Here is a very small, brand new hotel, made up of 19 guest rooms. Here, the main goal is relaxation. Luxurious rooms with a view of the sea, a beautiful restaurant, a pretty swimming pool, and direct access to the beach - what more could you ask for? Children are not allowed at the Olympic Lagoon Beach Club. Although it is possible to never have to leave the hotel, if you want to enjoy some extra services, you will have to make your way to the neighbouring resort. Ouch!

The Grecian Bay is a luxury hotel located on the verge of a pleasant beach. Its imposing size never casts a shadow on the tranquility or privacy of the place. Because of its numerous facilities for relaxation and sports, it is a perfect place for those running away from organised leisure activities.

Perched at the top of a cliff overlooking the sea, the Grecian Park enjoys a most beautiful setting out of the way of the built-up areas. This upscale hotel enjoys quality amenities and a pretty decor; and is certainly not lacking in assets. It is particularly suitable for families and anyone wishing to combine sports and relaxation. The only negative point is that it is so secluded, meaning that guests need a car in order to get to livelier places. And beware of the many steps! The beach lies 300m away, a great part of the distance consisting of steps. This is what you get in exchange for an exceptional view...
