Tsilivi Beach Hotel

Stayed here from the 15th - 21st of July we were supposed to arrive on the 14th but had a 24 hour delay with tui great start on arrival check in was great had fantastic rooms on the 3 floor overlooking the pool and sea.The room was lovely nice and modern and had plenty of room unfortunately it was raining when we landed you couldn't make it up 😂😂😂so we weren't sunbathing lol we went for dinner which I have to say wasn't great to be honest Luke warm the deserts were OK the best thing about the food was the snack bar great gyros pizza etc the second day there was a big thunderstorm never seen nothing like it 2 days wasted by the Wednesday the weather was beautiful up nice and early for a sunbed 7.30ish NO CHANCE there wasn't a sunbed to be had lol we ended up on the beach everyday which was ok the sea was amazing like a warm bath we went out every night for food and drink some lovely bars and restaurants Tsivili itself was nice the highlight of the holiday was the turtle boat trip and the caves the turtle beach wasn't that great beautiful island would I go back? The jury's still out on that one

The Tsivili Beach hotel is in a superb location right on the beach front - with a sandy beach and one of the clearest and most inviting seas I have seen in Europe. Honestly, you couldn’t ask for a better location for your hotel to be situated! The rooms seem to have been revamped recently (ours was right in front of the beach with a view looking out to sea) - and have all the standard facilities you could ask for - fridge, kettle etc. The room safe was free to use allowing you to put in your own code. One other plus was the smart TV in the room, which had the Netflix app included (although you’d need your own personal account to log in) along with YouTube - as what you might expect, there was a lack of English language channels, apart from BBC World news, so this was a welcome bonus - especially during the couple of stormy days we had. Not that wi:fi is an important factor for us when choosing a holiday hotel, but the wi:fi in the room was free, and also accessible all around the hotel, handy when you are sunbathing around the pool and might want to listen to the radio apps on your phone or Spotify. You could even tap into it on the beach too in front of the hotel. Just a short walk up the lane from the hotel (about 5 mins) were the main streets with a wealth of bars, places to eat and shops. Other activities in the area was a wonderful crazy golf place - great for kids and grown ups alike. There were also quite a few bars and places to eat along the beach front, perfect if you wanted to take in the wonderful sea view during the day or night. The hotel food (we were all inclusive) was what you’d expect from a European destination - usual buffet type breakfast, plenty to choose from at lunch time, and the evening meals had a good varied selection each night. The only downside I would say to the eating experience was that it was unfortunate that the dining room area was not located with any kind of view, and two days into the holiday, the hotel decided to section of the outdoor eating area for some reason, which was quite annoying, as it was a nicer setting than the inside room. Again, we don’t really come on holiday for the daytime or evening entertainment value at a hotel - but realise that this can be important for families and perhaps older couples. With that in mind, the entertainment at this hotel could do with a bit of an overhaul, as there was no atmosphere created in the bar area of an evening, and no events timetable advertised to let people know if indeed there was any kind of entertainment taking place at all each night. Perhaps this was why the bar area was somewhat empty most evenings. All in all - it only deserves a mark down for this alone, but the hotel itself, staff, location etc - formed part of one of the nicest places we have stayed in across Europe, and would definitely recommend, especially if you can book a room with a sea view.

Mostly avoid all inclusive hotels but booked this hotel due to its location on the beach. Have to say we were impressed, we ate breakfast and lunch in the hotel and ate out in the evening. All staff were friendly and helpful. Room was good size with modern bathroom. Pools were lovely with comfy sun beds. The large pool was a walk in pool which is far better than having steps, also had a jacuzzi. Only negative comment - late check out room we had was awful, tired, dated, tap hanging off sink, couldn’t wait to vacate the room. And we had to pay for the privilege! Nice bars and restaurants nearby. Great hotel in a fab location, will definitely return.
