This is possibly the best hotel we have stayed in so far and we have been holidaying abroad for the last 20 years . the staff are more than willing to help . Rooms are spacious and get cleaned every day . The only minus poin was my wife isn't allowed alcohol due to the meds she takes and it would have been nice to of had a non alcoholic lager for her to have . All said and done this was a fabulous place to stay . Lovely pool , plenty of sun beds and literally a stones throw from the sea . We will definitely be going back
Great hotel, would return! 😊
We had a lovely stay at the Pavlo Napa Beach Hotel and would definitely recommend it.
The location was ideal for us. It’s right on the beach, which was one of the best things about the hotel. We loved being able to walk straight onto the beach, and there were showers by the pool to rinse the sand off your feet before heading back to your sunbed. The hotel is around a 15–20 minute walk to the start of the Ayia Napa strip and about 45–50 minutes to the main square with the bars and clubs, so it’s in a great spot if you want to be close enough to the nightlife without staying in the middle of it.
The pool area was excellent. There were always plenty of sunbeds available throughout the day, so there was no need to get up early to reserve one. The sunbeds were very comfortable with large cushioned mattresses, and we always felt safe leaving our belongings while we went for a swim. Beach towels were also available for a small refundable deposit, which was really convenient.
Our room was modern, clean and comfortable. The bed was huge, the air conditioning worked well (although we couldn’t seem to adjust the temperature, it wasn’t an issue for us), and the hairdryer was surprisingly powerful. There was also a drying rack on the balcony which was really useful for swimwear and towels. The free in-room safe was much appreciated, and it was handy having hotel information and menus available on the TV.
As part of our stay, we received a voucher for one free lunch in the à la carte restaurant, which was a lovely extra. We both had the burger and it was delicious.
The all-inclusive package was very good. There was a great selection of drinks, including Piña Coladas as part of the standard all-inclusive offering, with the option to upgrade to premium cocktails if you wanted. The food was one of the highlights of the holiday. Every meal offered plenty of choice, all of the meat was cooked really well, and there were different themed evenings which kept things interesting. We also appreciated the all-inclusive ice cream, especially during the hotter parts of the day.
The only slight confusion we had with the food was during the main lunch and dinner service. It appeared that there were additional items you could order while seated in the restaurant, but this wasn’t explained to us. We didn’t end up using it, so it wasn’t a major issue. The restaurant staff were excellent throughout our stay—very attentive and always happy to take drink orders during lunch and dinner. At breakfast, you simply helped yourself to juices and hot drinks.
The hotel itself was fairly quiet in the evenings, which suited us after busy days out. During our first couple of nights there wasn’t any entertainment, but later in the week there was a music quiz one evening and two different singers performing on two other nights.
There were a gym available, which appeared well equipped, and it’s worth knowing there’s an indoor pool too, although you need to request access to use it.
Our only slight negative was one of the reception staff, who wasn’t particularly welcoming on arrival and gave very little information about the hotel or its facilities. We asked about late check-out when we checked in and were told to come back the night before we left. However, when we did, she said we would need to speak to the manager the following morning instead, which was frustrating as it contradicted what we’d originally been told. It was even more disappointing as she had just arranged a late check-out for the couple in front of us and was much friendlier towards them. Late check-out until 4pm would have been €40, but we decided not to extend our room. Instead, we made use of the free changing rooms, showers and luggage storage in the conference room, which worked perfectly well so I recommend just doing this and saving the hassle and money.
Overall, we had a fantastic stay. The food was excellent, the room was modern and comfortable, the pool facilities were great, and the beachfront location was perfect while still being within walking distance of the strip. We’d happily stay here again and would definitely recommend the Pavlo Napa Beach Hotel to anyone visiting Ayia Napa.
Perfect hotel in a perfect location!
An outstanding hotel in a beautiful location!
The staff were friendly, helpful and welcoming. The rooms were exceptionally clean on arrival, and were cleaned everyday to a high standard. There was complimentary shampoo, shower gel, shower caps and slippers. The shower was powerful. The beds were large and comfortable. The lights and air conditioning were all controlled by touchscreen panels. There were various options for lighting. The dressing table had a large well lit vanity mirror and powerful hairdryer. The wardrobe had interior lighting that turned on when the doors were opened. The balcony had two chairs, a table and washing airer.
The restaurant was clean and calm. The food was fresh and delicious with a different theme each night. The waiting staff were efficient and attentive without being pushy.
The pool area was clean, with plenty of extremely comfortable sunbeds, with tables and parasols. You could change your pool towel daily. The pool bar was exceptional. The staff were friendly and efficient, and there was an excellent choice of drinks available. There was plenty of shaded seating by the bar. The pool itself was clean and a good depth.
The bar inside the hotel was cool, calm and beautifully decorated.
The lift was small but worked quickly.
The hotel and pool toilets were exceptionally clean.
The beach was a very short stroll away. Sunbeds and parasols were available for a small charge. There were water sports available for reasonable prices. There were ramps/paths down to the edge of the sea making it accessible for wheelchairs and pushchairs. A box of buckets & spades etc. was available for children to borrow. The sand was soft and golden and the sea was clean and safe to swim in, with it being shallow for quite a distance before gently becoming deeper.
The hotel was situated about a 25-30 minute walk from the the main shops, restaurants and bars. There were plenty of shops and restaurants along the walk. Or you could use the BOLT app for a taxi there & back at a very reasonable price.
What was wrong with the hotel and location.....absolutely nothing!!!! We will definitely visit again!

Fabulous!
Fabulous hotel in the perfect location right on the beach. Food is excellent plenty of choice and all of very good quality. The themed nights offer foods from all over the world. The Monday night carvery is superb! A big thank you to the staff who make this hotel, Timmi, Kostas and everyone else who make you most welcome to the hotel. Must be good as we've been going for 30 years 😃

Very disappointing experience overall!
Very disappointing experience overall!
Be aware that there is a major difference between the renovated and unrenovated (economy) rooms. We paid for the same room type through a travel agency, as the rest of our group, but ended up in an economy room with very poor sound insulation and much lower standards.
Cleanliness was also a serious issue in the economy rooms, especially the floors, which were visibly dirty even after changing rooms.
What made the experience much worse was the attitude of the staff. Several employees were dismissive, confrontational and focused on blaming the guest instead of resolving problems professionally. One receptionist became aggressive and shouted at me during a complaint about the room conditions.
Mistakes can happen, but the way guests are treated when issues are raised matters just as much.
Unfortunately, this really ruined the experience for us.
