Evalena Beach Hotel

Stayed at Evelena Beach Hotel with my husband. We were in Cyprus for the first time for a friends wedding at a nearby hotel. We arrived late and had no issues at check in, the reception area was nicely decorated & had air conditioning. Cyprus was very hot. Food had been left in our rooms with us arriving late. Location for us was excellent. 10 minutes along the boardwalk to my friends hotel, right next to a pier for the watersports, the beach and the main bars and restaurants are 10 minutes away too,but still a quiet location. We had a lovely room, bed was huge,fridge, tea/coffee and a nice balcony with a side view to the sea. The rooms were turned over daily and usually when we went for breakfast. Food was good for the all inclusive option, always founf something we liked, same with the pool bar for drinks snacks. The bar/waiting staff were all lovely and helpful. The sunbeds were sometimes an issue, but the hotel did try to tackle this. The reception provide you with an information page when you first check in, at times when asking a question were told to refer to it. All in all it was a lovely stay and I would definitely return.

Really enjoyed our stay at the Evalena. The location is great, it's a short walk 5 minute away from the main resort of Protaras, there's a small beach right outside the hotel and quieter than the main beaches, near enough to have a swim in the sea and then back to the hotel pool if your not a beach/sand lover like me. The sea is lovely, clean, warm and crystal clear whilst we were there, great for snorkling, watersports etc.

The hotel was quiet and there was some entertainment, but this was more ambient with laid back guitar, saxiphone and piano music during the day and evenings. A nice laid back atmosphere and not to loud. If you wanted more lively entertainment then it was a short walk into the main resort where there is something for everyone.

The rooms were nice and spacious, limitied storage and hangers but we all found them fine and air conditioning was included. Some recent resoirts we stayed at in Greece charged extra for this on arrival.

The pool and bar were nice, although if i had one negative about the hotel it was there not really being enough sunbeds for everyone. There was a sign saying that any towels placed on beds before 8.30am would be removed, we never saw any towels being removed. So there were days when although we were up and at the pool early we couldn't get beds for the our party of 6. Although people did come and go, so throughout the day we did usually manage to get beds for everyone at some point.

The staff were great and really friendly, the bar staff and restaurant staff were great and always polite, friendly and service was always with a smile. The hotel was spotless and always clean, rooms were cleaned daily.

We were all inclusive and found there was always plenty on offer to suit all our parties dietry requirements. Drinks were plentiful, cocktails, beer, wine iced coffees, soft drinks etc. We ate out a few times whilst we were there, there are some nice tavernas and restaurants in the main resort if you want to mix things up a bit.

The overall resort was clean and lovely, plenty to do, places to eat and at the other end of the reosrt was Fig Tree bay which was stunning and i would recommend the Evalena hotel as a place to stay.

Absolutely fantastic stay for 14 nights Excellent food Lovely staff, nothing to much trouble Very clean Comfy beds Good location Only fault was pool side is very slippy Big shout out to ALEX on pool bar, top man.
