I am just back from cyprus last nite & thought i would come & leave a very good feedbak for the Macronissos Village it was great!
there was 40 of us that went to cyrpus for a wedding in Adams beach ( beautiful hotel) & there must have been about 20 of us that stayed in the village & not one of us has had a bad word to say aobut it.
Me & my partner stayed in the wee bugalows as so did alot of my other friends, there where clean & spacious. Maids came 5 out of 7 days and really cleanned room.
All the staff where very helpfull, especially the entertainers & people behind macs bar, & tried to get you's to join in much as they could! Bianca, Charlotte & Bob had me n all our m8's doing the shake it up song which was for kids but we all loved joining in they where brilliant.
theres entertainment in the apartements too which is good if your to tired to head into Ayia Napa town which is about 10mins in taxi & about an hour and a half walking. butmake sure before you go in taxi you ask how much it is first to your destination! they normally say 2 euro per person! so roughly i could be from villiage in2 the town about 12 euros. there is a bus which comes every 20mins n stops right outside the village and thats only 1.50 euro that takes you right into the townbut stops aobut 8 at nite!
Overall the holiday was great weather fantasic apart from first 2 days very windy!
Ayia Napa town excellent great for young crowds or couples my friends did take there kids there a few times there ok 2 get in2 pubs just not clubs obvs lol crazy frogs great what a nite in there, carwash very cheesy nite but had a laugh if you like the old Y.M.C.A the castle club brilliant :D The drink in the clubs are very expensive for 1 bottle of blue wkd 8 euros, vodka red bull 7 euros! so just get drunk before u head in.
wish we where all still there but think its bak to america nxt year :D
Have fun if your going
take care
love all the mental crowd that was there in May 2009 x

Just had to comment on the apartments even though I didn't stay myself. My mum, dad, brother and sisters stayed recently (i visited daily), the rooms were spacious, the pool was lovely and the bar / pool was great craic. Leighton (great singer), Heather (great dancer/kids minder)and George(multi talented!) provided a variety of entertainment. I went for a wedding without my kids but would definately go there again with them.
PS the Robbie Williams show was amazing (Ricky I think his name was ....should go in for Xfactor!!)

What a wonderful holiday my daughter and I had. It was brilliant, the accommodation was fantastic, everything was clean and tidy. The maids came to clean every single day, they were very friendly. The pool was cleaned every morning, Leighton (the entertainment manager) was so funny, I've never laughed so much, he had quite a good singing voice as well.
Food really good and the option to upgrade to half board for 14 euros a day, with breakfast the next day, was really a good idea.
We were so happy with everything that I have already booked to go back next year.

I haven't got a bad thing to say about this place, the accomodation was superb, spotlessly clean and with all kitchen utensils supplied in full. All of the staff where extremely friendly and made us feel really welcome.
Prices for food and drink at the bar where pretty reasonable for local drinks although imported drinks where pretty expensive (Magners cost nearly 7 euros, bacardi breezers just over 4). The food was good and not too expensive (around 11 euros for a good sized main course).
The beach is about a 10-15 minute stroll away and was a nice change for a day away from the pool. Sun beds on the beach cost 2 euro each as do the umbrellas. The beach itself has lovely white sand and clear blue water. Water sports are available and there is a beach bar serving drinks and snacks.
Around the complex there are a limited number of bars and restaurants all offering a warm and friendly atmosphere.
Aiya Napa is a 10 minute bus ride away costing 1.50 euro each way and stops outside the complex. A taxi costs about 10 euro and are readily available.
Aiya Napa has plenty of bars and clubs some of which where extremely expensive (14 euro for 2 drinks!!!!) A few bars have good deals on drinks, again local drinks are pretty inexpensive.
On the whole, this was a great holiday and we will definately return to Macronissos Village again.

My husband and myself took our 12yr son to Cyprus for the first time.
The holiday was all it said in the brochure and more.!
The rep "Ros", was very friendly an nothing was too much trouble.
Plenty to do for the kids, the entertainment was good, with themed nights which were amazing, especially the man who balanced glasses on his head.
I would recomend the excusions, my son and i did the dolphin safari, it ws brilliant.
The accomodation was really nice, very very spacious, and the maids were very friendly too.
My husband took ill on our holiday, the rep and the local hospital were brilliant and so were the staff at the hospital, which was very reassuring.
We are deffinatly going to book for next year.

One of the best holidays ever. Rooms - Lovely, basic (but all you need), kept so clean (in 7 days of stay was cleaned 6days). Staff - Very nice, always there to help, the rep you have your meeting with live's on site so could help you all the time if you ever want any info or to book any trips. Pool- Gorgeous, so clean, loads of sun loungers all around it. Entertainment - Amazing, something different on every night, and all so much fun. Food and drinks - All apartments are self catering, but you can have to options for only 14 euros to up grade to having dinner that night and breakfast the next day (very handy if you want one night and morning of not cooking 4 your self) Plus you can do this as much as you like. They do drinks deals, 20euros for 8 drinks and 4 shots. Plus there is the supermarket on site for food and drink as well. This holiday would suit everyone, familys, couples (old and young) friends, plus the staff are great with kids. I wouls recomend this holiday to anyone! Im def going back next year.

We stayed at the village self catering, but there is no cooker!!! The apartments are VERY basic. The food at the retaurant is very expensive, and it is cheaper to book an all-inclusive holiday, although you wouldnt think it at the time of booking, but you would save yourself 100's of pounds!!! They say they have a kids club for 4-12 year olds, but my son is 10 and he doesnt like doing face painting and drawing round his hands!!! I would'nt advise anyone with older children to go here as it will cost you a fortune. The village is quite a way from the beach and shops. The on site shop is very expensive, its worth shopping outside the village. When we were there, there was a huge fight not something you want on your holidays!!!! It definately doesnt deserve 3.5 stars, it qualifies for maximum of 2 stars!!

I stayed in Macronissos from the 29th June-13th July 08...When we got to the hotel and saw the reception area we were quite impressed. We were also very impressed with the beautiful gardens surrounding the swimming pool. HOWEVER when we got to our rooms aour first reaction was 'is this it??'
The accomodation was VERY BASIC, very basic decor, very basic kitchen facilities...there was no microwave or oven which we were quite shocked at! All there was was 2 portable hobs which was quite pathetic. Netherless as time went on it did not bother us so much as we just ate out most nights.
The food from the hotel bar was decent with your usual chips steak local dishes menu...The portions were quite big and prices weere reasonable. There are a vareity of restaurants about 5 mins form the hotel and a supermarket just across to the hotel. There is a bigger supermarket about 7-8 mins walk from hotel which has got an ATM machine.
A cab into the Ayia Napa square (where you find all the clubs) is a good 10 mins drive, there is NO WAY YOU CAN WALK IT THERE! A cab cost us 9 euros and slightly more expensive coming home.
Macronissos beach is about 10 min walk, its a beautiful beach very quiet...We went to Nissi beach (15 mins walk or a bus ride away) almost everyday this is the 'young spot' very lively down there with music and entertainment.
Overall I would say the hotel is not really suited to famillies unless you do not mind loud music blaring out at the swimming pool area/bar from 10am till bout 3am!
Personally I would stay there again as I got what I paid for. My friends say they would not stay there again! Its def NOT a 3half star hotel, the surroundings maybe but not the accomodation!
