With beautiful sea views, picturesque landscaped gardens, and a sandy beach just 10 minutes’ walk away, the Atlantica Akteon makes the perfect seaside escape. Located in the Chlorakas village, on the outskirts of Paphos, you’ll have your pick of bars and restaurants during your stay.
But you needn’t venture out when hunger strikes. The buffet restaurant deals in hearty spreads of Mediterranean and international dishes, with show cooking stations and themed evenings. There’s a pair of bars here, too – one in the lobby and one by pool, which makes the perfect spot to while away an afternoon. A team of sun loungers circle the spacious pool, which comes with a separate children’s section for any water babies you’ve got in tow.
There’s an indoor pool, too, plus a sauna and Jacuzzi, so you won’t be short on ways to unwind. For the activity-mad crowd, meanwhile, there are daily poolside fun and games, a couple of tennis courts, and bikes available to rent from reception. What’s more, little ones also get their own kids club (4 to 12 years) that runs six days a week.
As for what the evenings bring, expect the likes of mini discos for the kids, and plenty to suit the grown-ups, too, like bingo, karaoke, DJ sets, and live music. Plenty of fun for the whole gang!
