Almyra Hotel Details

Location

Sister property to the world-renowned Anassa hotel in Cyprus, the Almyra (which means "taste of the sea") opened its doors in June 2003 following an extensive renovation (it was the Paphos Beach Hotel, the town's first ever seaside hotel).  Located in the heart of Paphos and set within 8 acres of landscaped gardens it perfectly combines chic retreat, beach and the buzz of the harbour with its boutiques and restaurants within walking distance.  Its interior design, look & feel is very stylish and contemporary, just as you would expect from a member of Design Hotels, and caters to the most discerning of traveller.

Transfer Time - 20 min from Paphos Airport (8 km) or 2 hours from Larnaca (130 km)

Rooms

There are a total of 189 rooms at the Almyra, all spacious with a Mediterranean feel, custom designed furniture, cool fabrics in natural tones and state of the art amenities.  They have all the facilities you would expect of a top hotel - cable TV, video on demand, CD player and WiFi access.

Food

They have 4 restaurants to tempt your taste buds-

• Notios - an al freco restaurant that fuses the purity of Japanese food with flavours of the Mediterranean cuisine.  You can try a series of tasting menus (ranging from 5 to 9 courses) created by the Executive Chef and called Omakase which means "trust the chef".  Open for lunch and dinner during the summer, but weather permitting during the day from November to March
• Mosaics - Almyra's main restaurant where lavish buffet meals are served and features a live kitchen.  Good choice of Mediterranean and International cuisine
• Ouzeri - a traditional seaside summertime restaurant that focuses of light Greek snacks and Cypriot dishes.  Look out for the evening beach barbeques and live Greek music during the summer
• Eauzone - situated by the pool at the AlmyraSpa you can enjoy spa cuisine (light fusion of Mediterranean and Asian food) or refresh yourself withone of the therapeutic tonics and teas.  Open at lunchtimes for adults over 16

Also if you like your mid-morning or teatime coffee and cakes, try Helios their lounge bar where you can enjoy a sundowner with stunning views over the sea and Paphos Castle or stop here for a coffee and delicious pastries during the day.

• Watersports - Parasailing, Windsurfing, Kitesurfing, Waterskiing

Insider Tips

In 2007 the Paphos beach was enlarged and totally refurbished - it has been lengthened, and the central wave breaker in the sea has been removed, thus bringing more sand onto the beach, and providing Almyra guests with the perfect spot for swimming and sunbathing.

Wellness Approach

• Mainly relaxing and pampering with some holistic therapies available. Lovely signature rituals using purely natural and organic products. Good range of facials and beauty treatments available.

Freestyle Spa

• Separate male and female steam rooms and saunas. There is an indoor spa pool with relaxation area and floor to ceiling glass windows to enjoy the winter sunshine.  The yoga and Pilates platform boasts fantastic sea views, as do most of the treatment rooms. The outdoor spa pool also has sun loungers and is only open to guests over 16 years old.   

Signature Treatment

Red Algae Detox Body Wrap  The body is covered in a 100% pure marine based red algae and wrapped so your skin can absorb the essential amino acids, minerals and vitamins. Sweating that takes place will help expel toxins while taking in the nourishment. After showering away the algae, the therapist will apply the natural "Ocean Lotion" to keep your skin moisturized and silky smooth.

We Love

• That 9 out of the 11 treatment rooms are sea facing so that you have beautiful views whilst having treatments
• The elegant and contemporary ambience of the outdoor spa pool; 'new Ibiza' chic
• The Organic Just Pure Products which are cultivated and produced according to moon cycles.  The concept is carried through with recommended times for certain treatments. For example, the new moon phase is the best time for detoxifying treatments as the body eliminates waste. The Full Moon is great for nourishishing treatments and wraps. Once you get to the spa, they will give you a moon cycle calendar so you can see if it works!
