From its hillside perch this property enjoys unbroken views across the Bay of Limassol. And this fabulous outlook is certainly put to good use. The lagoon-style pool for instance is in a prime spot for horizon-gazing. And what with its clutch of palm trees banana plants and neat lawns it's the ideal place to just kick back and relax. The sun terrace looks out to sea too with big comfy wicker sofas so you can sit back and soak up the view.
Step inside the hotel and you'll be greeted by a marble lobby whose traditional décor comes with contemporary zip. Regency-style wing chairs smart couches and leopard-print pouffes share floorspace with dark wood tables and chests. The restaurant has been given the boutique touch too. Dressed in olive green and accessorised with high-backed chairs and statues of goddesses it's one seriously chic dining room.
As to the food itself expect big buffets serving Cypriot specialities and British fare. There's an a la carte menu too. And as this hotel is part of the Thomson Gold collection there's plenty going on in the evenings too. Think gala dinners live music and glitzy shows.
The rooms meanwhile are comfortable and are kitted out with minibars satellite TVs and air-conditioning. Superior rooms meanwhile come with views of the pool or sea. Extras like fluffy bathrobes tea and coffee-making facilities and Hi-Fis add the finishing touches.
When it comes to facilities they're in no short supply here. There's a tennis court gym and a sauna to keep you occupied.
As for location the Atlantica Bay is in an out-of-the-way spot close to the ancient ruins of Amathus. It's about five kilometres from lively Yermasoyia and ten kilometres from the city of Limassol. If you do want to get out and about there's a bus stop just over the road from the hotel.
