Ascos Coral Beach

After reading some reviews I was nervous about going however, we had the best time, the food was lovely lots of variety, rooms were clean & cleaned daily & the hotel is situated perfectly to get to the main strip

We'd booked for a group of 6 adults for a 14 night stay at the Ascos Coral Beach Hotel mid May. Arriving at the hotel late on the evening of arrival we were quickly booked in to our rooms and given a plate of food. This consisted of a sandwich of Cheese and ham and also some fruit. The room was a sea view and balcony, and very clean and spacious with twin large single beds pushed together. I had a colour tv, kettle, mini fridge, safe, and hair dryer. A large bathroom which had a bath, with shower blind, bath towels, hand towels and a floor towel. What we thought should have been included was a bath mat as the bottom of the bath was quite deep and narrow and when standing for a shower you felt a little unsteady as if you could slip. The food at the hotel both for breakfast, lunch and evening meals was of quite a high standard and offered a good selection with most meats and a fish selection changing each day. Drinks during the day (10am - 6pm) served at the pool bar then there after severed in the lounge bar until 12pm again plenty of choice but no Ale just Lager beers. All the hotel function rooms were clean, but we did not like the seating in the dinning room, a bit saggy on the bottom. The swimming pools, gym etc. all very clean and a lifeguard was in attendance from early morning to late afternoon. Our biggest complaint was the hotel entertainment which was not so good. All in all very satisfied with the Hotel, our rooms and the facilities. Coral Bay is a small lively town with shops bars and eateries, with plenty of place to hire a car should you want to. Paphos Town is about 20 minutes drive or a 35-40 minute bus ride which is about 3 euro's per person return. Buses run about every 5 to 7 minutes but do get busy and full.

Typical 3 star hotel what you pay is what you get. Breakfast poor. Lunch ok but plenty of selection for evening meal. Half of the staff happy half grumpy. Hotel could do.woth a refurbish. Stained old carpets in the corridors. We had a late flight home and asked if we could pay extra and check out of our room late we were told they didnt offer this service. Yet people on the same flight were allowed to check out of there rooms late. This ruined our last day as we had to sit and wait around. I wont be visiting this hotel again. Never had a problem in any of the other hotels in cyprus

its more like a 4 star plus.the pool service was amazing a few drinks were wrong but it was put right. food in the evening was realy good and cooked perfectly, and the view in the dining room was stuning. cleaned rooms daily.

We had a fantastic time and will definitely be booking again the only slight thing I would change is the activities perhaps a little more going on would be nice. The food for the whole stay was excellent always something to eat and hot x

After reading some of the bad reviews on this hotel it was with slight trepidation that we embarked on this holiday. But where some of the complaints come from I am baffled. The room was clean and well presented, it was cleaned every day with fresh towels provided. There was an excellent choice of food, - the dining area had a lovely view of the pool & sea front Excellent position for Coral Bay strip Would definitely recommend & will return

Having read all the bad reviews that this hotel has received we travelled with a great deal of trepidation! No need!! The hotel was great, we had wonderful rooms with views over the pool and sea. The food at all meals was very good, varied and plentiful. Breakfast & lunch however were served in a separate restaurant which was a bit like a canteen but the quality of the food was still good. The staff throughout were attentive and helpful. All public areas were kept spotless and tidy as were our rooms. The only niggle we had was that occasionally there was a slight smell of poo!!! Upon investigation we realised that it came from outside and not the hotel and it didn't spoil the holiday at all. Overall a good reasonably priced holiday'

Having reviewed previously before I went to this hotel was a bit anxious as the reviews weren’t very good, we were very happy with the hotel and facilities overall , food choice was very good entertainment was acceptable staff very polite and helpful, location was very near resort centre ,pool area lovely and great views ,I would have no problem returning to this hotel thoroughly enjoyed it

On arriving at the Ascos we got to our room and pleasantly suppised . It was perfect for our needs.We had a Kettle , fridge safe and a beautiful bathroom kitted out with bath and over bath shower which both gave lovely hot water when needed. We also had a flat screen TV although there was no English Channels but we had'nt gone to watch TV. Bars were well stocked with everything you coould want . Food was quality with a good selection to chose from , Fresh salads and pasta along with a variety of meat dishes . No complaints with regards to food and drink . Pool bar has waiter service from 10am till 6pm . Pool was large with shallow and deep areas with plenty of sun loungers . Very close to the sea but large rocks and pebbles were a put off for some visitors . All in all we had a fantastic stay at the Ascos and hope to go back some day Paphos is beautiful

Food choice and time excellentRoom and hotel really cleanAll inclusive times are fabCould do with more child friendly entertainment day and nightRooms lovely clean but oldBed really comfy Cleaned daily towels every 3 days but I think they done more frequently Have to pay for wifi which is a pain but 24euro for 2 devices for 7 days

I cringe when I read negative reviews online. I usually think ‘is it really worth that person’s time to complain when they are home’ However, I really must warn others about this hotel. We love Coral Bay and stay 3 or 4 times a year, my partner is Cypriot. This is the first time staying at this hotel. The positives: Great Location Amazing views Large pool Lots of sunbeds Large Bedrooms Negatives Lots of things weren’t right for us, but things came to a head a couple of days before the end of the holiday when 2 waiting staff got into a violent fight at lunchtime, in the middle of the restaurant. People screaming and blood everywhere. Very nasty. When we approached Constantino, the manager, to say that this wasn’t acceptable, he denied even working at the hotel. We booked this hotel because it had a gym and a good location just off the strip. But NONE of the equipment or the air con worked. When we called to ask reception about the equipmentl the receptionist said ‘Yeah yeah, you are going to tell me about the treadmill’. She claimed it was due to be fixed. When we asked about the air con in the sweltering heat, she said the ‘air con was off as the gym closed in an hour’. Neither the air con or the equipment was fixed in the 10 days of our stay… we can live with that, but the attitude of the staff was appalling. When we challenged the manager about his role (!) we bought up the non functional gym. He was embarrassed that he had been ‘found out’, so pretended to ring the receptionist about it. When he told her to ‘just keep talking in Greek because we were in front of him and would go away eventually’… My partner pointed out at this he was in fact Cypriot and spoke fluent Greek!! It was like a scene from a bad sit com. We had problems from the outset - Never known such rude check-in staff. When we asked where the restaurant was for breakfast, we were told to ‘find it yourself’. Asked for a quiet room only to find that it overlooked the Stage / Bingo / Cabaret. Asked to be moved but ALL rooms overlook the stage! So you had better like 7 night s a week bingo and Elvis impersonators at full volume. On the one occasion the linens were changed we were given a single sheet on a double bed. Didn’t even cover the bare mattress! When we asked at reception for a double sheet to change it ourselves, the maid was in the office and was saying in Greek ‘They got a sheet, what more do they want?!?’ We got a sheet the next day – see photos. During the 10 days we were there we had no plug in the washbasin, despite asking repeatedly. There was a large party of travellers booked in during our stay and despite the fact that they were all very drunk, the staff continued to serve alcohol to them. Police were called to deal with this party twice and they were still allowed to stay. They would sit in the courtyard below the bedrooms until 5am drinking, yet there were no security guards to ask them to be quiet or behave. There is no roper management at this hotel. It has such an enviable location right on the water’s edge with magnificent views. It has the potential to be very good. But with the attitude of the staff and management will never relive its glory days.

the hotel location really good, food was average for all inclusive.All the staff were grumpy and didnt have time for anybody. the entertainment was not very good. I would not recommend this hotel as it needs improvement

This is a good hotel, the entertainment could do with a shake up, and the outside area we used to sit could do with being treated for cockroaches, as there was quite a few at night! Plus the food could do with having more kids things pizza was only on once! Not a happy 8 year old, but on the whole food was good. Drinks were carlsberg or spirits Pepsi etc, the hotel could do with taking up a policy of reserving sun Beds! It's a joke that you have to get up at 6, to reserve a bed or there is no where to lay all day because selfish people save beds and don't hardly used them! Staff should remove the towels and stop them doing this! Wifi is €24 for the week for 2 devices! And not great, and avoid the shop in the hotel, there is one at the top of the road that' sells what they sell half the price! We had a great time here and the rooms were cleaned every day! Although there was a mouse in our room one night, told the manager and he said oh I won't charge you for that!
