ケファロス - デイモン ホテル アパートメンツ(Kefalos Damon Hotel Apartments)

First hotel reviewed since Covid Very welcoming on arrival ,good sized room, comfy bed only down point no or very little hot water in the morning. We found the buffet food at all meals varied and good quality ( some were complaining that it was the same every day but if you have everything on you plate then it will be the same every day). My wife required Gluten free and after a word with the restaurant manager she was given a menu to pre order lunch and dinner off, The bar had a good choice of drinks but service could be a bit slow if a certain 2 barmaids were on as they would rather chat to each other. Entertainment was great Pino and Merci work so hard through out the day and evening often turning up early and going home late. There are 3 pools with lots of sun beds our first week was ok no reserving of beds but 2nd week the stupid o clock crowd turned up and started reserving more beds than needed ( sad thing was one of them was always there not on the beds but undercover by the bar making sure no one touched their towels Sooo sad ) Would stay again but we don't like going to the same place year on year out theres a big old world out there and only a short time to see it.

Can’t fault the weather, nice enough staff. As a vegetarian I wasn't keen on the cheese broccoli on offer every meal time, so ended up eating elsewhere on my own dime. Usual all inclusive where they only give you half a beer everytime, why not a pint? The local beaches feel mostly fenced off in paphos, and it was a bit of a walk to the resort related beach. Apartment was clean, bed comfortable. Otherwise no complaints.

Excellent family holiday, hotel was nice and clean, our room had 2 separate bedrooms which was a bonus. Cleaning staff daily done a fantastic job.3 pools to choose from with plenty of sunbeds for everyone. The Mama Mia restaurant was excellent with plenty to choose from.breakfast full English or continental, and also choice of ceral, toast,bakery. lunchtime and dinner time great choices again, with snacks from 3pm to 5pm. Drinks avalible all day from 10am till midnight. Only downside was no ice-cream included. Entertainment was fantastic 6 nights a week.

After reading some of the recent negative reviews, felt I should leave my opinion on our last visit to the Damon. This was our 3rd time staying here. Check in was quick and the lady was very friendly and helpful. We had a room at the front of the hotel overlooking the road. Room was spacious and clean, although the air con could possibly do with a clean maybe as it had a bad smell when it was on, especially when it was first turned on. Room was equipped with kettle /fridge , although the fridge didn’t stay on once the room card was removed, which meant you couldn’t leave milk or anything in there. Hotel hadn’t changed much from our last visit, some new faces on the staff, but some familiar faces too. We always use the pool at the back which is quieter, although this year the bar seemed to be permanently closed at this pool, maybe staffing levels?, but didn’t really matter to us anyway. Always plenty of sun loungers and lots of new ones added which was a nice touch. Food was great as always. Really don’t see what people’s bad reviews are about. The only slight disappointment this year from previous, is the puddings..as a bit of a cake lover, there definitely wasn’t the same choice as previous stays here..other than that, can’t really complain. Maybe people need to remember this is not a five star hotel when leaving poor reviews. Some people expect way too much for what they pay. The Damon is a very good 3 star though and we love it here! We have already booked our return to the Damon , thank you for a lovely holiday!

Good points Rooms are lovely and spacious be aware that there are no lifts in some buildings I was not aware, was put in the second floor four flights of stairs my husband has mobility issues, we were changed to a ground floor room the next day. We arrived very late, sandwiches were there for us which was a lovely idea but aubergine sandwiches were not for us. Staff amazing, very friendly and helpful, everywhere was spotlessly clean. Not good Entertainment! Even though the person hosting is entertaining there was mostly deal or no deal with bingo nearly every night, once followed by a fire show, karaoke once a singer one night no entertainment this really needs a shake up. Food Even though everything looked fresh there is only so much salad you can eat, as a vegetarian I struggled and we ate out a few times. Everyday it was a salad, pasta, potatoes, rice a fish and a chicken dish very repetitive. It was only the day before I was leaving I was told I could ask for something else a vegetarian nobody told me this before. My family are meat eaters and struggled with the repetitive limited buffet. As lovely as the hotel was I wouldn’t go back due to the entertainment and food sadly, location was an issue as my husband has mobility issues to go to a tidy beach as the one close isn’t the best it was costing a lot by taxi to go to coral bay which is beautiful. There is a bus stop very close for those that could catch a bus.

The food and drink was of the cheapest quality, smoking is aloud everywhere in the outside eating areas, bar staff are so unfriendly it's not believable, never saw the pool attendant near the pool side and when you did see him he had a cigarette in his hand, entertainment same every night, young kids were being given alcoholic drinks at the bar, books left behind by guests were being sold in the shop, this hotel is cheap for a reason it is so BAD save your hard earned cash and go somewhere else

DO NOT STAY HERE!!! I do not understand how this hotel has won a trip advisor award or how it gets so many good reviews. We booked this based on the reviews which were glowing and I do not understand why. This is one of the worst if not the worst all inclusive hotel I have ever stayed in. I felt like I was in a Cyprus edition of Shameless. It is old, outdated, shabby and the other people there… jeez 🙄 do not go here if you have any ounce of care about yourself. You will regret coming here. Book anywhere else!!

This is the worst hotel we’ve ever stayed at. The reception staff on arrival were friendly and helpful but that’s about the only good bit. The rooms, although equipped with everything we needed were very dated and looking at photos on here they haven’t had anything done to them for over 10 years. The blocks of rooms surround the pool, and it was like being in a prison with Block A, Block B, etc. Sunbeds were taken early in the morning by people who had come for sun and nothing else. The sunbeds looked uncomfortable and they were very dated made of cheap plastic. The food was awful. It was tepid at best. We complained to the rep and he said he had a long list of complaints about the temperature of the food but nothing had been done. We ended up eating cereals in the restaurant and then eating out at one of the many lovely restaurants nearby. Because of family reasons we had to cut our holiday short but if we hadn’t we would have been asked to move to another hotel.

I'll start with the positive, the location of the hotel is very good for sight seeing 10/15 min walk each way for various archaeological sites which are lovely, currently you can't walk down the sea front as the coastal path is being refurbished..The municipal beach is ok with a beach cafe and cheap to rent loungers/umbrellas 2.50 euro each. Getting into the sea however is a different story, full of sea **** most areas and the rocks are lethal (wear swim shoes) best access doen the ladder on the jetty still not great tho wouldn't recommend for children..The apartment are lovely pools are ok but not easy access for little ones its ladder access or jump in..entertainment is rubbish and the food is awful barely any choice at all , if you want a nice base to stay at for sightseeing it's great just go self catering and wouldn't stay with kids.
