Toxotis Hotel

“Easter break”

We had a pleasant stay at the Toxotis Hotel in Paralimni and felt it offered good value for what we paid. The hotel itself was quiet, which meant there were always plenty of sunbeds available — a real bonus when you just want to relax by the pool. Entertainment was pretty much non‑existent, though. There was no poolside entertainment, and the music around the pool was the same playlist that ran all night in the bar, which did get a bit repetitive after a while. Smoking around the pool was also something we weren’t keen on. The food wasn’t amazing, but we managed to find something to eat at every meal, so it did the job. Overall, the hotel feels more like a solid 3‑star, but we were happy enough with the experience considering the price we paid.

“Overall Good Cyprus Vacation”

I stayed at Toxotis hotel with me and my partner mid-summer in August. Location - Good location, within walking distance of local bars, restaurants, shops, pharmacies.

I stayed at Toxotis hotel with me and my partner mid-summer in August. Location - Good location, within walking distance of local bars, restaurants, shops, pharmacies. Bus stop immediately outside of hotel if wanting to head in Larnaca or Ayia Napa. Rooms - Rooms were quite modern and had british plug sockets which was useful. Had a slight problem with the first room we were staying in as the shower leaked into the bedroom, as well as the toilet seat being off it's hinges on arrival. We did tell staff immediately however at first they were quite hestitant to move our room on the day despite being unable to use our bathroom. However, come the following day as we persisted we were moved. They ensured we viewed this room before, to ensure we were happy with this room change. Our second room was also modern, and we had no problems here. Cleanliness - Rooms were cleaned daily. No duvet on the beds and is simply only a sheet however I think this is quite normal for the hot climate here however I feel some more blankets/sheets should be available. Must bring your own sunbed towels. Toilets by the pool bar was as appropriately clean, toilets under the building were extremely outdated and never very clean. Food and Drink - We went all inclusive, and the food selection was always pleasing. Breakfast consisted of pasteries, fresh fruit, yogurt, normal English style foods as well as classic Cypricot breakfast foods. Lunch, was a good variety of foods nothing too special at the buffet and very similar to dinner. You can also have lunch at the pool bar/ snack bar which you order to your table and we found this food to be good, including toasties, burgers, chips, spaghetti bolognase, ice creams, etc. Dinner at the buffet restaurant was always good, every night was a different cuisine/theme and went full out with this. Many different options, salad bar always full and kids options were avaliable however very repetitive for them. Drinks were amazing for an all inclusive, extensive cocktail list and good local lagers and wines, iced coffees were also made at the bar in the morning! Drinks were on order at the buffet restaurant, which was a nice restaurant effect however depending on how busy this was could also be a negative on the wait time. Atmosphere - Many kids at this time as summer holidays, defintely a family atmosphere which we didn't mind. Entertainment team during the day was good and enthusiastic, hosting pool Zumba every day and lots of mini games for children and adults! Such as water polo, and one day when the pool shut early due to an incident they made a game of beer pong which all the adults joined in with. However, entertainment in the evening was poor as each night only had a solo singer, we did not usually stay for this and ended up going out after dinner and a couple of drinks. Not good entertainment for kids. Pool and Sunbeds - Pool was good, very busy as a family hotel. Allows floaties and ball games. Sunbeds were a pain to get, definitely in need of some new sunbeds and some more! There are a few with shade over the top and soft cushions however these are all gone within the early hours, as well as the only functioning sunbeds. Most days we were left with broken sunbeds, or had to wait until somebody left later in the day. Staff - We found staff to be very polite, and to be very helpful. The bar staff, entertainment team and restaurant staff. Demetrius, the restaurant manager was very organised, polite and friendly, remembered our drinks after just a few days and interacted with everyone so well. Overall, Toxotis was extremely good value for the money. Would stay again if we came back to this part of Cyprus. Would recommend this hotel if looking for a good value getaway during the summer months, however if you have kids be aware of the food options and lack of entertainment in the evenings.

Just returned from a one week stay at this hotel with my son who is 11 years old and my parents who are in their 70's We'd read a lot of negative reviews before we arrived but overall, we could not fault it. Those people who pay for a 3 star hotel but expect a 5 star service seriously need to re-evaluate their expectations and those that complain about cracked tiles and other minor faults need to remember they're on holiday, not health and safety inspectors! The hotel is in a lovely location, not far from a few local shops, pubs and restaurants. There is a bus stop aswell just outside the hotel that costs €2 to take you directly to the waterpark in Ayia Napa via Protaras. All staff in the hotel are very friendly. A special mention to Diana who worked in the restaurant. As it was towards the end of the season when we arrived, there was no animation team and evening entertainment was limited so I am unable to comment on this. The pool area was kept very clean and tidy with plenty of sunbeds and parasols available. Good selection of all inclusive drinks available including freshly made cocktails and mocktails, alcoholic and soft drinks aswell as hot drinks. As mentioned, as we went near the end of the season, it seemed that the food was becoming limited with less choices available. However, there was always something for everybody with a lovely selection of desserts and fresh fruit. Rooms very comfortable with an average sized balcony, air conditioning and a free safe. You do have the option should you wish to hire pool towels, hair dryer and iron. This can be arranged via reception. Overall, a very pleasant stay at this hotel so thank you to all the staff who work so hard.

We wanted a relaxing break in the sunshine somewhere nice and this is what we got . We noticed there were some negative reviews but overall the score was 4.5 so we weren’t overly worried and rightly so . The room was clean and bed made towels changed every day too. We had a pool view and although the rooms would’ve been nicer with more modern bathrooms , for a five day stay it was just fine . Food .. I can’t really comment as I am the fussiest eater in the world and exist on very few calories on holiday ! But my friend found the food fine and had no complaints . Bar staff were lovely and drinks were good too . Poolside .. it was end of season so no entertainment staff but that was fine for us . We loved the music that was played during the day which added to the very relaxed atmosphere . The area is lovely and we went walking every morning . There is a boardwalk you can easily walk along into Protaras which I would recommend . I would definitely revisit and would also travel there alone as it felt perfectly safe . In the height of summer the atmosphere may be different but fpr an end of season break to get away from everything it was perfect . I sometimes think that people who see a high review on Tripadvisor expect too much and think they are staying in a 5 star hotel when it is rated 3 star. Most people we spoke to were happy enough woth their stay
