I booked up for a two week trip away to Kyrenia after not getting chance to enjoy Christmas much due to a heavy work load, so this was an early holiday for 2010. I travelled with my wife and our small daughter (6 years old) and decided a bungalow suited our needs best. When we arrived the sun was shining and the surroundings really did look great. A nice view, some lovely gardens which were tended to well and a really attractive beach and coastline nearby. What more could we have wanted considering... more
We had a truly great time at the Acapulco Hotel. Every single member of staff was extremely helpful.I was concerened with the amount of building work and bulldozers around the place and this should have been reflected in the price we paid due to the mud on the pathways plus lack of sunbeds on the beach.However, a great time was had by all. The food was great and plentiful and I would definitely return to this hotel.... more
A pretty hotel in a pretty setting. My friends have stayed there a lot and liked it, so I had thought I knew what to expect. I was very disappointed, I´m sorry to say. The biggestproblem was that the poor staff didn´t have enough English education. They really wantedto help, but it all ended in total confusion. So I just gave up and didn´t ask for anything more after a couple of rounds. I stayed in two different rooms( even though there were hardly any guests the first was set towards a group of... more
We stayed at the hotel in a Deluxe Bungalow and found this too small after 1 night as ther were two adults and our 2 children.We upgraded to two connecting rooms which cost another £630 but was well worth it.The food was a bit of a let down but the Health spa was great also a nice clean sandy beach.Drinks are expensive but it is a nice relaxed hotel.There were some smoking areas in the hotel and we were suprised that when the no smoking ban started on January the 1st that everyone still smoked.We... more
This hotel was a great dissapointment and can only gain its 5 star rating based on the facilities rather than the service and food.Our room was small, there was no seperate shower, only 2 or 3 English speaking programmes on the TV, one of which was BBC entertainment which was a constant repeat of the same programmes, day after day after day. We had to pay extra for the rooms safe deposit box and laptop link-up and even fresh orange juice cost an extra 8 YTL per glass when we were on half-board.That... more
Four of us stayed at the Acapulco at the end of October. Unfortunately, the weather changed as we arrived and we experienced a lot of rain. However, thanks to the excellent facilities, this did not detract from the enjoyable stay.The food and dining staff were excellent as were the spacious bungalows. The added bonus of a fridge in the bungalow was great, as we were able to buy our own drinks for the room, as the ones sold in the hotel were very expensive. The water slides were fantastic for both... more
Four of us, of mature ages, stayed here for two weeks in October in two de-luxe villas set in attractive gardens. The villa was comfortable and clean with bedding and towels changed on a daily basis by the cleaning ladies. The refrigerator was welcome for our own drinks as we did find these expensive in the hotel. Television, we never turned it on.The weather was very good which meant we were able to make good use of the 'Relax pool' every morning. Here we could just sit on comfortable beds and... more
We've stayed at the Acapulco twice, both times we had a bungalow set in the pretty grounds which was very spacious and clean. My one problem with the bungalows is that it is not possible to sit outside (no balcony/outside space) and there was no where to dry wet towels or swimsuits. The beds were changed daily, the a/c worked perfectly, and a fridge in the room meant we could keep drinks nice and cold. I would have liked a tea/coffee making facility as you get in most British hotels. The facilities... more
'Rated' as a 5* but in reality it is a 3* at best, which is OK if you pay 3* prices. We had a half board package, breakfasts were good but the evening meal was very 'samey' and the hot food was generally cold by the time we got to eat it.The room we had was a good size and clean.The hotel is surrounded by a Turkish army base and the noise from the firing range was intrusive.Overall we would not go there again.Staff were friendly but vey disorganised, watching the waiters at work at the 'aqua bar'... more
We stayed at the hotel for ten day in late September – beginning October. We had a bungalow in the grounds and the best thing about that was that it was so much more spacious and private than a hotel room. Our bungalow was very nicely furnished, bright and also very clean. The great thing about this Hotel is that it was right on the Beach with its own private cove. The weather was just perfect sunny and rather warm. We spent most days sunbathing and swimming. The hotel is a few km from Girne... more
Hotel was initially hard to find owing to lack of clear signs on the main road. Parking areas were not marked so it was difficult to know where to leave the car & the security chap did not speak English. Check in was very slow as there was 1 employee to attend to several people. Although a 5-star hotel there was no offer of help with our bags. The room was nicely decorated & large but the loud noise from extraction units in the building opposite the room made it impossible to have the balcony... more
This club hotel has everything one would expect from a relaxing and nice holiday resort. All of the staff is very hard working and helpful. You do see them working all day long! The hotel is very clean, the rooms are furnished with modern furniture, TV, hair drier, fridge, all available. The rooms are really good sized. We stayed 3 adults in a room, and didn't feel on top of each other at all! It has been cleaned very well every day, given fresh towel. Also, the hotel gives you beach towels that... more
We stayed at the Acapulco Beach 3 years ago and were not disappointed. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean. The food was excellent with plenty of variety. The facilities were superb and the entertainment team were great fun. Lots of activities going on. Could not find fault with anything. Overall I had a fantastic and came back looking and feeling twenty years younger. Highly recommended.... more
I have just returned from a weeks' stay at a delux villa at the hotel, on a halfboard basisThe hotel itself is as described by the company, and would possibly equate to a UK four star standard, however, the villas are not, although, they are adequate. The hotel is approximately 10km from Kyrenia, therefore, out on a limb a liitle. The hotel prices for water, lunch etc, are a little overpriced, e.g, a can of Coke, 6TL, whereas in the town 1.55 TL.The complex best asset is the beach. Although the... more
Took the family to the Acapulco, which were stressed-out husband AJ, two girls under 4 Ellie and Hanna, and me, their dog-tired Mum! We chose a bungalow for mroe space, and it was a wise choice - plenty of room, cool in the hot weather and very clean thanks to the maid who never seemed to mind if the girls left their stuff everywhere!Ellie and Hanna made lots of friends playing at the Aquapark, posh name for slides and pools, but the kids loved it. I liked the beach with its sun loungers and my... more
Went to the Acapulco with a few girl friends for a week doing nothing on a beach, and that's just what we did! Beach was great - long, sandy, with clear blue sea and sunloungers for everyone. Loved the beach bar for drinks and snacks, and if we got too hot, we just ran into in the sea! Didn't bother with the water sports - too much effort in the heat, as it was HOT HOT HOT!OK, we didn't spend ALL our time on the beach - we sat by the swimming pool as well! Most of us girls liked swimming in the... more
The Mediterranean is a great place for a beach holiday - if it weren't for the crowds in the summer. Which is why I always go early in the season to beach resort hotels - you get the sun but not the heat, the sand but not the crowds, and peace instead of endless noise from other people's untamed kids.So I had no hesitation in booking the Acapulco in that blissful time between Easter and summer half term, when the sun shines on those who are not tied to school holiday timetables! At this time of... more
The hotel offered a large range of services all at top level.Perhaps I would have appreciated a "tipical" restaurant in addition to the excellent self service restaurant.The sea view from my room was wanderfull and all members of the staff were cooperative, polite and always at my disposal.The rate service/price is the best I found in both part of Cyprus.... more
High quality hotel complex with extensive grounds including large swimming pool with slides and childrens area and quieter relaxing pool for adults only. Spacious and clean bedrooms with balcony large enough to sit out in comfort and ensuite facilities. Breakfast and dinner were eaten outside on an extensive terrace overlooking the beach with attentive waiter service. Range of food on self service was superb,at both meals.Extensive salads would please even the most demanding vegetarian,with a good... more
Me and my partner stayed at the end of April for four days and found the hotel and staff very good . We had a private bungalow wich was very good just what we wanted for our stay. The room was cleaned every day and was left spotless.The hotel grounds and pools were very good and the location on the beach was superbThe food was very good and we would definitely book there again.o... more
It's our 4th visit to the resort in 5 years and we are now 50+ years and like peace and quiet. We love the great beach and we think the food is great with a very good range for all, particularly the salads which are very fresh and varied.Hot food not bad either,good breakfast also.Atthough the resort is remote, it is a cheap, short trip by bus to Kyrenia, with regular pick-ups from the hotelIf you like a lot of entertainment and chips, this maybe not the best place for you, however the indoor pool... more
I stayed at the hotel for a week with my young son who is 11yrs old and had a very good time.We stayed in one of the bungalows which was very nicely furnished bright, airy and also very clean. The facilities are very good the swimming pools are excellent and my son had a ball up and down the slides. The food was of a good standard plenty of choice both hot and cold dishes although sometimes not always what you might expect. The leisure facilities are excellent good indoor swimming pool and an good... more
I've recently come back from Cyprus where I took my family for a weeks holiday. We looked through the brochures and decided upon the Acapulco Beach Club and Hotel as it was a 5 star and we wanted to splash out and treat ourselves a bit. The hotel was located quite close to the airport and the transfer took about 15-20 minutes which was good news for the children after a flight out here. We also liked that the Acapulco Beach Hotel wasn't very far away from the attractions such as Kyrenia Castle,... more
We were not 100% sure of visiting North Cyprus or a beach resort hotel like the Acapulco in February, but we're really glad we did. The Acapulco's nice sandy beach was clean, and although swimming was decidedly for the brave, the sunshine was lovely for just sitting and relaxing, (not so good if the wind was blowing). I also enjoyed just sitting in the bungalow and reading a book, something I just don't seem to find time for at home, despite being retired!Our bungalow was clean, neat and perfectly... more
Stayed at the Acapulco Beach for two weeks half-board and had a great holiday. Flight was delayed so arrived late and tired. We checked in and were shown to our room which thankfully was really nice. It had loads of space although the furniture was a little old-fashioned. The bed was very comfortable and I slept like a dream every night.I heard that Cypriot staff were always friendly and helpful, and they certainly were here. I was very impressed with the hotel facilities, especially as it was a... more
We went to the Acapulco this january and reckoned the hotel would be just as good as during the summer, but quieter. However, I suspect winter guests like us don't always get the best service. The staff seemed tired and not keen on working too hard, so everything took ages. Checking in after a long flight seemed to drag on for ages, but the hotel room with sea view was clean and comfortable once we got into it!I don't ever expect much from hotel food on package deals, just as well, the food was... more
Stanley and I visited the Acapulco hotel in November to find a delightful location in North Cyprus. As a Mediterranean location the temperatures were much warmer than our Bath homeland. While the temperatures were not conducive to beach bathing or swimming they were wonderful for little walks along the sand. My husband and I found many evenings to watch the sunsets on the beach. The food was very healthy and good. The only negative in the trip was the lack of other attractions around the hotel.... more
First the good stuff. The Acapulco has the best and cleanest beach in North Cyprus, and our two small kids loved it. It was busy but not overcrowded (late September) and on a couple of days when the wind blew, the kids enjoyed the swimming pools instead. We got a bungalow which gave us space to relax, but it were dark and the air con was pretty much on its last legs. Staff were really friendly towards the kids. Food was uninspiring but loads of it, which pleased my ever-hungry husband. The not so... more
My fiancé and I decided to take a little trip to celebrate our engagement. We stayed at the Acapulco Hotel in Kyrenia due to the wonderful value on the vacation package we were able to obtain. Upon arrival we were shown to our little bungalow, which sat in just the right location to see the sea and beach. Acapulco Hotel is set on a private bay offering a quiet location for a romantic getaway. September was the perfect month to arrive in Kyrenia because most of the tourists were already gone... more
All things considered, I would not recommend this hotel. Sure, the beach is nice, but you pay an exorbitant price for a bottle of water. All of the drinks in the complex are too expensive, and they don't let you bring in your own drinks from outside the hotel. I can understand this ok when it comes to making money in their bar from alcohol, but when it is so hot; it is just a rip off to make guests pay so much for water. There wasn't even any water provided for free with dinner. I was on holiday... more
I travelled to North Cyprus in August. The weather was still warm for sunbathing and a little swimming. My stay at the Acapulco Hotel was enjoyable in all areas. I was given a hotel with a view of the sea. It would have been nice to see the mountains from my room, but that was not possible. I was able to enjoy the mountains from the pool area. The pool was laid out well with plenty of loungers, and drinks were available. The hotel was full of a variety of guests from children, students, and... more
Just returned from a two week family holiday in Kyrenia where we had a really great time. It was quite hot for the children, aged 6 and 4, being August, and as it was quite busy around the pool but there was plenty of shade. The aquapark was a great feature of the resort and all the children loved the chutes and slides. The beach was close by and the children enjoyed playing in the sand and cooling off in the shallow clear water. I can also recommend the kids club activities run by the hotel. The... more
Had an an awesome time at the Acapulco with my friend Sal. best part is the beach - big, loads of sunbeds, really hot weather, warm sea, and a bar, right next to the hotel - brill! pool is big with waterslides, but lots of kids, so we stuck to the beach most of the time.Breakfast good and served for ages so you didn't have to get up early. Its a big hotel, so dinner took ages to come some nights, but it was really nice and tasty. drinks costs a lot, and we were really p****d off when a security... more
The Acapulco was a great choice for our family holiday. Cyprus is always reliable with the weather, with lots of sun! The hotel has an absolutely massive pool, with slides for the kids (ok, so maybe the adults enjoyed them too). The area around the pool was always clean and well maintained while we were there, and there seemed to be the right number of sunbeds for everyone. In case the pool isn't enough, the hotel has a private beach too, which is nicer than a lot of the stony beaches in Cyprus.... more
The great thing about this Hotel is that it was right on the Beach with its own private cove. The weather in late May was just perfect, sunny and warm. We spent most days sunbathing and relaxing by one of the pools. The hotel is a few miles from Kyrenia, but there is a hotel shuttle bus which was very convenient when you want to go shopping.I was really impressed with the facilities at this resort – tennis, volleyball, basketball, fitness centre, Jacuzzi, Turkish baths (you must try!) and a great... more
I wasn't sure if the Acapulco Resort Hotel would be the best place for a May holiday, but I was wrong! The beach is lovely and the weather was warm enough to sit out and just read, or look at the scenery - very relaxing. The swimming pool is impressive but with that lovely beach I couldn't see the point of it much! The resort was not full so you always could find a space to sit and relax - not sure that would happen at the height of the summer?The restaurant food was nice in the hotel, and the... more
