Despite the pandemic we managed to finally go to Cyprus for a break in September/October. We have stayed at the Amathus before but told ourselves to manage our expectations as Covid restrictions are bound to hinder service right? Wrong! The hotel once again lived up to its reputation for first class customer service. The general manager and the entire hotel staff went out of their way to give us a perfect holiday. We felt safe and cared for and had a wonderful time. Most hotels can get a lot of things right in normal times but it takes a very special place and people to get it right when there are challenges to every day life. The Amathus managed to give us a paradise during Covid 19. This will always be the hotel for us.
We have just spent fourteen most enjoyable days at this wonderful hotel to which we have visited in the past on over twenty occasions. The hotel, although with a reduced number of guests because of the global pandemic, was as always fully prepared to look after their guests best interests and the Covid-19 mandatory requirements (wearing of face masks, social distancing and hand sanitising) was adhered to by all staff and guests. We felt extremely safe at the hotel! We were also delighted to find the addition in the extensive grounds of a new salt water adults only pool which is beautifully designed and fits in perfectly with the surrounding gardens. We ate in the Kalypso Dining Room and on several occasions in the Liminaki Restaurant and the standard of food in both was of the highest quality. Special mention must be made as always to the outstanding staff employed at the Amathus, they are all without exception simply first class, a credit to themselves, their profession and the hotel and deserve every congratulation. It is our intention to return to Cyprus and the Amathus in 2021.…
I stayed in this beautiful hotel twice and each time was truly impressed how consistently excellent this hotel is run and how specifically it is guest-oriented. Honestly, it feels like home and like a club where you want to come and stay for as long as possible. In fact, I wanted to live there in the end. Each client faces warm Cypriot hospitality. From the point of booking to pre-arrival to checking-in it was all very personal and caring. When arrived, Myria, Anastasia and Eleni ensured I had all I needed, nothing can compare to how greatly they assisted me, even with some unusual requests. The housekeeping and the room service were excellent. The beach is amazing with two parts of a nice sandy beach which feels private with warm Mediterranean water and sun taking care of you in the hands of nature. The breakfast is superb - both in the room and in the modern, brand new restaurant. The beach service was excellent with amazing freshly squeezed juices and food from Panteleitsa and Alexander, served by Maria and all the great people who work there. Limanaki, where I had dinner almost every day, turned out to be one of the best restaurants in Limassol, which is true! Thanks a lot to Goran and his caring team! The massage with Christiana was so great - the hotel has an amazing spa with beautiful swimming pools and a gym. I befriended a couple of locals who turned out to be Amathus club members, and shared how amazing it was and that they can't live without it. The only sad thing is that I didn't have a chance to try Aqua aerobics classes in the fitness club! I wish I knew that in advance, next time I will go there each time! The hotel has wonderful facilities, such as bars and restaurants, but I didn't try them much. The most beautiful thing about this hotel for yet are its cats - amazing Garden of Eden creatures! They will make your stay full of fun and appreciation for the nature, flora and fauna! Huge respect to the owner and the management for taking care of them. Finally, all staff I interacted with are an amazing team and wonderful people! Many thanks to each of you for the great stay, I look forward to coming back soon!…
I have recently returned from a 10 day stay at the stunning Amathus Hotel and had a wonderful experience, whilst it wasn’t complete perfection, I would say this was mainly due to Covid-19 and any imperfections could be easily put right by the management. We originally booked a superior room with inland view but were upgraded to a junior suite as the superior room had no bath which would have been an issue with our two young children. Whilst the suite was a little larger and had a bigger bathroom, it was the balcony that made all the difference as the inland rooms do not have this. There was a very small capacity of guests staying at the hotel and so many of the restaurants and facilities were closed which was understandable yet disappointingly not updated on their website (it really doesn’t take much to update a website) and the buffet breakfast was a sad situation with the same food every day often left out on the side for long periods of time and no doubt gone to waste in the end due to lack of guests. The hotel itself is beautiful with an incredible setting and extremely well kept grounds. There really is something for everyone with a stunning ‘Adult only’ area with infinity pool, a fun kids pool and another larger pool open to all guests not to mention the beautiful private beach overlooked by the pool areas providing the ultimate setting. The majority of the staff are fantastic , especially those we encountered at breakfast and dinner who clearly work hard to make you feel special. It does however seem that some staff need more direction as things seemed to change on a daily basis and there was much confusion which was frustrating when we were making simple requests. We also found it quite absurd that the Sushi and sandwich bar only served sushi on weekends! The hotel was extremely clean and we felt very safe from Covid-19. We had one of the most memorable weeks and can’t praise the staff enough for making us feel so welcome . Finally special thanks to Anastasia who has the natural ability to excel in her role as Guest Relations manager, her dedication to ensuring her guests are happy is a credit to the property surpassing our expectations where we approached her with a few gripes. Please be careful with the valet service, upon arrival to the hotel one of the porters parked our cars and handed back our key, we did not use the car whilst we were there but had a call from our rental company to say that the hotel had called them to say our car was parked in a spot they weren’t happy with and needed moving (they had parked it themselves!!) when we got to the airport we were charged for damage which we are sure must have happened at the hotel as we knew for sure it was not us. All in all we would definitely recommend this hotel and hope to return. …
The Luxury Amathus Limassol Hotel is as breathtaking as its surroundings. Check-in did not take more than a couple of minutes.
