been to cyprus but much prefer Turkey, Belek is lovely, although not for everyone as it is 85% Russian and only 5% English, although all hotels are 5 Star and on the beach, it is very reasonable to get there as well.

Ive been to Cyprus year before last and we stayed at Protarus not in the main town as quite noisy but a quieter part of it at a place called Pernerna(sp) beach. It was a great hol friendly people most locals speak english some great bars and places to eat, water sports amd boat trips. We stayed in apartments called Ausonia Park. We went 1st week in August Very hot but would go back again we couldnt afford Florida so 4 of us got a late deal for under a £1000 when there were no late deals for Florida

I would recommend Protaras in Cyprus to anyone, sadly haven't been for 3 years, but we use to go every year even twice a year sometimes for about 8 years and my aunt and uncle have been going at least once every year for about the past 13 years. Its such a nice place and the locals are so friendly esp towards children (me and my sister use to have such a nice time). One piece of advice i'd really give though is if takign children try to avoid mid july to mid august it gets far too hot. We was there end of june once and the weather was in the 40's.
Regarding hotels would dependon wether you wanted a hotel or apartments I cant really remember names of many places as some years I was young and didn't really take much notice but I will ask my mum.
If you look on libraholidays they have quite, well use to have quite a selection we went with them every year.

I was in Cyprus June 2002. We were staying in Limassol and had a rental car so did a lot of driving around. I really loved it as there is so much history to the island, it wasn't just a sun holiday. Paphos was lovely and I would like to stay there sometime, we just went there on a day trip to see the town and Valley of the Kings (or some similar name? this was really interesting). Would definitely go again sometime.

we went to limassol in 2001 and it was lovely we went in may and the weather was just right.
last year we went to ayia napa and loved it plenty to do for kids as there is a massive water park down the road but the weather was scortching as we went end of july.
thinking of protaras next year.

I'm going to Protaras (Pernea) on Wednesday, last minute all inclusive deal. Hope everyones friendly as I'm going on my own, other half can't get time off work!

Have been to Ayia Napa years about 9 years ago! was good then but now wanted a more relaxing week off.

A friend of mine at work goes every year and she just loves it.
