My husband and I booked a couple of weeks before we travelled with the Discovery Collection, hoping for a little winter sun and cheer. We flew to Larnaca and were driven by private taxi to the resort. The reception was delightful. We were shown to a fourth floor room overlooking the beach/sea. We played tennis most mornings and then had... more

I have spent a whole weekend with my family at this great hotel. We have a little baby and we just wonder if we could have done it with our baby. However hotel staff did their best to help us on every moment during our stay. Seperate baby bed was fit in to our room, hot water supplied every time,... more

We have just returned from three weeks at Merit Crystal Cove. Generally the Hotel and staff were very good and helpful; my wife uses a wheelchair for any distance. Please bear in mind that this is a conference centre. The delegates from Turkish Lions (0ver 400 of them) seemed to consider that British guests were only to be tolerated, but... more

This was the first time we had been to Northern Cyprus. This hotel was outstanding in every way. The only complaint we have is that smoking is permitted everywhere even in the restaurant.

The Merit Crystal Cove Hotel & Casino is the best hotel I have ever stayed in. I stayed in October 2005. The food was delicious and perfected. The service was exceptional. All of the staff are helpful and approachable. The pool, private beach, gardens and all of the hotel's surroundings were all excellent and well cared for and maintained. The... more

Luxurious as this hotel might be, do not visit on a casual basis for refreshment. We were charged, for a cup of hot water and a "dip it yourself teabag" the equivalent of £2.50. Is this the dearest cuppa in Cyprus? more

I went to The Merit in North Cyprus and I had a very good time but I cannot rate the Hotel as 5 stars, I will give 3 stars, the rooms were very basic and in need of redecoration, the Gym have very old equipment, the swimming pool is good and the gardens around are beautiful the staff is very... more
