Just got back from my stay at Akti Beach. Room was very clean and very very spacious. Recommend air-con as it remains hot all night as well as the day but you do have to pay for it.
Restaurant on sight I found very basic I was half board but recommend bed and breakfast instead.
Location of hotel is poor however there is a great bus service which goes almost everywhere in Paphos for 70 cents.To get to the bus stop is tricky for anyone with walking difficulites as you have to walk up a dirt track which is not lit up at night. Its very dark and the track is sandy and rocky so take a torch! Taxi service is very good but can be anything from 5 TO 7 Pounds to the harbour you will definitley need the bus or taxi to get about as Akti Hotel is out of the way from anywhere.
Don't let that put you off though its a great hotel and waiters and waitresses cannot do enough for you.
I reccommend you shop around for your meals and drinks as the Akti is higher priced than in the main town.
Overall though excellent hotel

We stayed in a one bedroomed self catering apartment. It was spacious, clean, & comfortable with the basics you would expect for self catering, although there was no microwave so quick ready meals were a no go, you had to wait for the oven which was only a small table top one.
The hotel was always clean & our apartment was cleaned everyday, with clean towels being supplied.
The hotel staff were always ready to help & very polite.
The food was good & at a fair price but wasn't anything special although the al a carte was better.
The entertainment was also a little poor, we ate down in pafos most of the time & found a bar or tavern with entertainment on. Sid's bar on Tomb of the Kings road offered some very unusual entertainment for everyone to enjoy which I have never seen anywhere else so feel it is a must if you visit Pafos.
We felt the hotel location was very isolated though & it was a good hike to the main road to catch a bus. Also on one particular occasion we stood for over 45mins for a bus & although two went passed not one of them stopped so we flagged a taxi, we were later told that in the day it was often the case for the buses to be full so they would not stop. I future will will us the taxi's or hire a car.
We probably would visit again although next year we are going to a different resort, 5*

We travelled to Paphos in August 2005. There was 17 of us in total as we had gone out there to be married. We had 3 one bed apartments and 3 studios between us.
Both the apartments and studios were spacious, clean and tidy and the maid came every day but for wednesdays and sundays. We did have the air conditioning on every day (this was an extra charge) as it was extremely hot in August. One of our apartments did experience air con problems but the staff did deal with this within the day.
We were all self catering but we did eat in the bar on a few occasions we were always satisfied with our meals they were a bit more expensive than in the resort itself but the portions were huge. We did have breakfast as well a couple of times (which you can have if you pay) as said before it is not very varied but was nice enough.
The bar staff were always pleasant but there isn't much entertainment on but when there are 17 of you we entertained ourselves.
The pool areas were clean and tidy the beach on the other hand is a little to be desired it is really tiny and pebbly and 6 people fill it but on the other hand it was hard to find a nice beach in paphos anyway.
We travelled with Olympic and had two reps Ann the wedding rep was fantastic with us but the main rep was rude and unhelpful.
The main down fall about Akti it that it is so far away from anywhere and you do have to travel to the centre but we found a great taxi company that sent a mini bus every night big enough for all 17 of us and with so many of us being in it it kept the cost down but when you go in a taxi it was approx

We stayed in this complex for a week. On arrival the reception staff were really helpful. we loved the windy walkways of the complex to our room, there were flowers everywhere.
Our room was very spacious with plenty of kitchen utensils if we had wanted to cook for ourselves. It was spotlessly clean , and our maid was very courteous, as were the rest of the staff, except for a couple of the waiters at breakfast who were a bit on the grumpy side but not everyone is a morning person!!!
The food was pretty good most of the time, with a good selection. The pool area was really lovely with a grassy lawn for those who wanted it.
The complex also had a smaller separate pool in a different area ,which was nice later in the day if you wanted some peace and quiet. Location was well out of Paphos, and would not be suitable for anyone who wanted to be in the heart of the resort every evening, but getting a taxi was no problem.
There was varied entertainment on most nights - some good some bad. we would recommend this complex if you don't mind being well out of the main resort.

We stayed at the Akti Village for a week and the room was clean and spacious but quite basic. The room was cleaned every other day and clean towels etc. The hotelcomplex was very nice - the pool at the front was lovely and there were plenty of sunbeds and umbrellas. Lovely view of the sea while lying on sunbed and relaxing!
The only real problem we had with the hotel was it's location - it is quite far out of Paphos town and harbour, which is a real shame. There is a bus service until 6pm, but you have to walk up to the main road otherwise it's taxis, which are quite expensive - about
