Position of Hotel. Pool cafe. Beach restaurant. Bus terminal in carpark. Legends sports bar opposite.

I’ve seen a few negative reviews but luckily didn’t let it put us off. As we had a lovely stay there.

We arrived in the evening and were greeted by friendly reception staff, in fact all staff were friendly, pleasant and helpful throughout our holiday. My son and I booked a one bedroom apartment, which was ideal to allow us our own privacy with beds being in both rooms. The apartment was clean and some may complain the beds are hard, but I loved that, as I got a great sleep every night and my back never hurt once all holiday. The shower could do with updating, but that was only a minor issue.

When I woke up the first morning, I looked out of our balcony window to realise we had been upgraded to a sea view room and couldn’t believe how outstanding the view was.

Breakfast had a lot of variety which suited us both. We didn’t eat dinner there as we planned to go out and explore Pathos or try different local restaurants and bars if having a relaxing pool or beach day.

It’s a quiet relaxing hotel, perfect for peaceful relaxation, which is we what we wanted. There’s a lovely local bar a few minutes walk away called Legends, that has regular entertainment and nice food and a really lovely restaurant which is also around 5 mins walk along the beach path called Porto Antinca. Plus a bus that stops right outside the hotel which will take you to the Tomb of Kings, plus connecting busses to other places. For only €6.50 for a day pass it’s well worth it.

Hotel apartments are falling apart they are absolutely disgusting we will never return the furniture was cracking up beds were rock hard the rating is a 2 star not 3 bathroom shower does not work corroded with limescale cockroaches ants you name it

amazing location next to the beach

On arrival it was late at night so couldn’t see much room Ants running all over kitchen work top and sink room very out dated and I mean out dated pool area no rail handle to get in and out of pool sand in pool never seen pool getting cleaned and I’m up from 5am restaurant very out dated only went down once for breakfast and that was enough staff not very friendly reception lady sooooo rude to everyone it’s a shame as it has beautiful walks around it and beaches but will never be back to this hotel and when you see prices for next year they are having a laugh

Stayed in October 2025 - Family holiday via Jet2, 2 rooms, 4 adults (2x Under 25)

TL;DR - this hotel will not suit your needs. Read the reviews, set your expectations very low (1/2 stars), and do not book this hotel if you are expecting a “normal package holiday”. If you are an older, quieter, couple, looking to eat, drink, sunbathe on the beach every day and nothing else - this hotel would maybe work.

Arrival -
Do not book a coach transfer as you could be over an hour from Paphos Airport. This hotel is incredibly out of the way from main centre of Paphos, and one of the last on the main bus route. You will be asked to provide passport and contact details upon arrival, check-in can last up to 10-15 mins. Arrived before 11pm and had to navigate to room in darkness, there is no lighting or none that works. Corridors are outside (like a Motel), ceilings are very low and I personally hit my head hard on this as no signage or warnings were present. Our room (01B) was quoted as a Studio Side Sea View. As on the basement floor, our view out the back door was of a perimeter hedge. Walkways are not accessibly lit, and “ramps” are incredibly radical. Stairways are trip hazards and walls are very low down and could be dangerous for children. There is still Covid-19 stickers, information, and rules placed in the foyer in the very dated lobby, which is the first of two wifi hotspots (which is around 300mbps, hilariously quick speeds for a hotel without any in-room wifi). Placed in the centre of the lobby is a table of “Thank you” cards and a large shrine to the hotels founder.

Room(s) -
Studio room was very very basic. We did not unpack as there was no space to. The beds were two single beds pushed together, and incredibly hard. Funnily enough, the “duvet” is the same material used for the “curtain” which is really not effective at blocking sunlight, streetlights, or the sun’s heat. The air conditioning, despite being advertised to be “off”, was still operational from the wall however sounded in incredible disrepair and did not blow air at all. Appliances were very dated and damaged, and tap fittings are rusted and dirty. The fridge had not been cleaned. The sheets on the bed were ripped, and the curtains were hanging off the wall. The sink also was blocked upon arrival. The TV looked to be new, however you must ask for a TV remote at reception. Not to worry, as the TV could not tune to any channels and as there is no in-room Wifi, none of the smart features work. If you plan to cook, most of the advertised in-room features do not exist, or you have to request items (such as a second glass or mug for a double occupancy room). What was included in our room, was an array of bugs and cockroaches - causing my partner to be unable to sleep. We reported bugs for 3 days, and was presented with half a can of bug spray. Hotel staff stated “The bugs come in from under the door” - which did not help the situation. The hotel “is fully booked” until a point where our call-out for the second and third cockroaches afforded us a room move to 323 - a one bedroom apartment which faced the car park and next-door hotel. This room, despite bigger, still follows the same overall theme of the hotel - dated, in need of drastic repair, and a total rethink. This time the TV worked. The carpark can be very loud from locals at nights, evident by donut and tire markings, and in the mornings, the room is a suntrap which heats the room to the point it forces you to be awake such as in a tent. With no working aircon, this can become uncomfortable. If you wish to charge your phone in this room, bring an extension or a plug with multiple connections. The walk to this 3rd floor room adds the peril of staircases with no handrails, broken ceiling and ceiling tiles, and very low balcony walls which for myself (6’5) did not reach my waist. Shaver plugs in all 3 of the rooms we used did not work, hence I was unshaven for my stay as I use an electric razor. The showers were unreliable, and flipped between hot and cold often. Walls are paper thin - you can hear conversations (and heated complaint phone calls to holiday companies) very easily room to room - which is no surprise as room 5B/5A/5 are all directly within one metre of each other. As I will go on to explain later, the price paid for this holiday exceeds any excuse for the quality of the rooms and the hotel overall. The area has multiple hotels ready to take your cash and provide a 10-fold better service for you for the same or negligibly higher price. If you are considering this hotel, please research others first before using this.

Hotel amenities -
There is a pool with sunbeds, claimed by most very early in the morning for all day. The beach is a 30 second walk from the pool - but despite the same name and owner as the hotel, you do not get any preferential rates or benefits as any visitors from the large carpark or local area. Beds are €2.50 for the day… And that is it - no entertainment, no music, no late nights. This would suit some, but not the majority who look to holiday in the local area. If you want to visit this beach, stay somewhere else and get the bus or hire a car. You are treated as any hotel guest would be even if you come from far far away - as long as your towel is down on your bed first and you have €2.50 to spend.

Breakfast and dining -
Breakfast was included in our room, and we used this on one day only. The buffet looked to be a decent spread, but the taste and quality of the food was really not up to any form of standard - especially not the €8 charged if not included in the room. The ‘bacon’ was grim, and the coffee machine seemed old and dangerous as it overfilled cups and almost burnt my hand. For the same price, please get the bus to the local strip, and any restaurant would provide a better service for the same price. The beach bar is a decent offering for if you are in the hotel during the day, however the menu highlights the cost-cutting nature of the hotel (made in microsoft word, in 3 languages). It is a decent price for ham toastie, but cocktails are similarly priced in the local strip and much better quality than in the hotel. A menu is put through your door (or an attempt is made to) each day, again similarly made in Microsoft word, and we did not use this. The restaurant it self looks nice from a distance, and the service was attentive, however the quality of the food and once you are seated, it is clear that this restaurant is not a lively hub for hotel guests. Closing early (before 9pm) with no entertainment, music, tv, or lounge area, this hotel encourages you to leave and find something better elsewhere. Decent enough if you wish to spend your holiday adventuring and you have a hire car, but this hotel does not suit the majority of holiday makers here - you will be disappointed by its lack of offerings.

Getting about -
Good news is that the local bus service is able to take you to the local strip and to Paphos Tombs of the Kings bus station. Buses should be every 10 mins. Walkable is the local bar “Legends” which is a great alternative to eating in the hotel. Next to this is the local “supermarket” (tiny) and can be expensive. The local strip has all of your evening needs for all bars and restaurants. The bus can take a while to get into the town centre, and goes past many other hotels which look much more modern and appealing than what you stay in here. Hiring a car seems popular for your stay, but unless you want to visit remote locations, the bus to Paphos can be a good money saver. However, there is no lighting between the bus and the hotel, and can be dangerous for walking back.

General comments-

The guests staying in the hotel consistently smoked and vaped in communal areas - and this is a common theme across Cyprus. The tourism in this specific part of the area lays itself to a primarily British holiday-maker who has very little regard for where smoke ends up. The hotel clients are mainly older, British, quieter couples who keep to themselves and take up a sunbed for the day, or go to the beach. We spent an hour by the pool, which was empty in the water but full on the sun beds. It felt almost awkward to talk or make a noise - there is no music and almost library like as the eyes of those sunbathing watch you try to use the cold dirty pool. There is not much to do other than just this. Despite younger people and families staying while we were here, this hotel really is not for your family to stay. Children would be very bored with no amenities other than the pool, and no in-room wifi or working tv’s. As a younger traveller, I felt out of place and not comfortable here.

I was extremely disappointed with our stay, so much so that when speaking to our Jet2 rep, they noted that our issues were common ‘every time I come to this hotel’ which is at least twice weekly! It was also noted that Jet2 may not be renewing any deal with this hotel for these reasons.

The lobby, as stated was one of two wifi hotspots, is just a complaints paradise - where either a guest hears complaints when checking in, or you are requested to have a seat whilst the only manager who seemed to be in charge does all of the work. This can take upwards of 30 mins to wait for her to be available for rooming issues. Maintenance issues are reported more quickly, but is a pot-luck to whether they are resolved. The other room in our party had no working tv for the entire week. It feels uncomfortable to sit in the lobby, especially with flickering lights and the marble floor which guests slipped on often as only one wet floor sign was placed.

Overall - this hotel is really for a traveller who does not mind roughing it. However, for the price, you are expecting a much more high quality hotel and service to be provided. If this hotel was half the cost, you may expect these issues to be prevalent- however our holiday was severely impacted as the “sell” on the hotel was completely incorrect as to the service that was provided.

Recommendation?

Book somewhere else - this hotel is a victim of a lack of investment and does not cater for the majority of holidaymakers. Do not stay here unless you have experienced the hotel before, or you wish for your holiday to be much more relaxing and worth your hard earned cash. I do not enjoy writing such negative comments on a hotel, however I also do not enjoy my partner and loved ones having a less than ideal holiday with regards to how much money was spent to come and enjoy time away. This hotel requires either a new description and costings (2 star and cheaper rates), or requires a dramatic refurbishment into a Motel or otherwise to bring it to the correct standards expected.

Hilariously on leaving I was handed a questionnaire which of course I put this information onto. The main manager would not let me leave her sight with her pen, so reluctantly I gave it back to her and handed my questionnaire upon departure.

Arrived at hotel late so didn’t really see anything, next morning although the room is clean it’s very tired lots to do to make it nice , the outside space is good beach literally a minute away ,but the sunbeds are tired and need renewing the staff are very friendly and the pool bar is lovely, we have had clean sheets and towels regularly but a sweeping brush would be good as our floor is in need of a good sweep as is our terrace, overall a good stay but sadly we wouldn’t return .

The location and views.

We’ve stayed at Corallia Beach Apartments five times now, and every visit is just as wonderful as the last! The rooms are spacious, spotless, and have all the home comforts you could need – including an iron, kettle, large fridge, and plenty of utensils. Everything is well maintained and cleaned regularly, making it a really comfortable place to stay.

The staff are amazing – friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help. The location is perfect, with one of the best beaches in Paphos just a stone’s throw away, and lots of restaurants and amenities nearby. The bus stop right outside makes it so easy to get around too.

It’s great value for money, and we wouldn’t stay anywhere else. We’ve already been five times and will definitely be booking again next year!
