The Cyprotel Faliraki is a large, well-presented complex with a bustling village-like feel and atmosphere. Set in a quiet hillside location on the edge of the resort the complex offers families, couples and groups of friends the perfect combination of lazy days around the pool or fun filled hours splashing down the slides at the hotel’s own waterpark.

The main restaurant is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Buffet tables dish up a mix of local and international flavours. The second place is a snack-style eatery with an outdoor terrace. You’ll find it beside the relaxation pool. During the summer, there’s a sweet corner where you can watch chefs cook up traditional Greek loukoumades. Plus, there’s a wooden kiosk selling wine and beer and once a week the hotel hosts a barbecue where you can try souvlakia and kebabs.

The main pool’s absolutely huge. It’s got shallows that you can wade into, bridges that span the width of the water, and a swim-up bar serving cocktails. There’s a second, smaller pool in the grounds, as well. Kids love the hotel’s waterpark. It’s got five flumes, plus a set of four lane slides for racing. A shallow splash pool with cartoon dolphins and a tug boat crops up alongside it. You can play tennis on the hotel’s court. There are aqua gym sessions and water polo matches in the pools, plus crazy football darts contests to try your hand at. Head to the open-air theatre for family-friendly evening shows – tribute acts and acrobats are on the agenda. The hotel-run kids’ club’s set in a mural-covered building in the grounds. It’s got a splash pool outside, and runs theme days that teach little ones about different cultures and the environment. Plus, they can have their own spa experience.

Double rooms, family rooms, plus 1 bedroom family rooms are available at Cyprotel Faliraki. Inside each accommodation type you’ll have a shower or bath, a mini-fridge, a TV, a safety deposit box, a hairdryer, plus a balcony or terrace with inland view.
