My family & I have been staying at the Almond village for the past 9 years since they opened & would not dream of staying anywhere else. It is a family run buisness & all the family are lovely. The place is so clean & well run. The pool is just perfect & such clean water. Loads of comfy sun beds. The food is good, gardens lovely. The family cannot do enough for you. Have booked to return again in 2008, only problem is that I have recommended it to so many people it is getting hard to get a room!! Great location if you have a car as so many places to visit. This is the best side of Kyrenia with the lovely mountains as a back drop, not too many new developments as there are on the east side of Kyrenia.
This is the perfect place to relax & recharge your batteries.
Wish I was there now?!!
Cannot recommended it highly enough. No words to describe paradise on earth.

Have statyed in this hotel several times now over the last few years .A family run small and friendly hotel .Allways clean and tidy and the service excellent.Be assured of the warmest of welcomes from whole family ,with nothing to much trouble.The settings and gardens are immaculate and peacefull.The food excellent with bar meals as well as 3 full courses ,you choose.Accommadation is cleaned daily ,with towells and sheets changed daily also.A great pool area where you can laze around in peace or a "base to explore n.cyprus from" .

We booked this hotel through Cyprus Direct, and the only fault with this company was the transfer from Larnaca. We were picked up in a very small car. 5 adults and 4 large bags. One of the bags had to be left behind, glad it wasn't ours.
Everything written about the hotel is good and true. We loved the setting and if you needed to get out and explore you can with tour trips or hire a car at reduced rate from the hotel. The way to the beaches is via a busy main road, very hot and dusty if you walk.
I really recommend a evening vist to Bellapaise. This setting is spectacular especially with a meal at The Tree of Idleness. Read Lawrence Durrell's book Bitter Lemons and be seduced..
the trip to Karpas is long 180 miles, but well worth it if you don't intend to go back to North Cyprus.
It felt like we were leaving a host of friends when we left...

Our family (children 9 and 7) has just returned from 2 weeks in Northern Cyprus staying at the Almond Holiday Village. We were visiting along with another family of four for whom this was their 3rd visit to this establishment. They had highly recommended it to us, and we were not disappointed.

I'd give it top marks for layout, appartments, pool, general cleanliness, and their chef (should you choose to "eat in"). If you're looking for a high quality resort run by a very welcoming, efficient and accomodating family then this should meet your needs.

The only fly in the ointment was the air travel - we had significant problems with both Pegasus and CTA (overbooking + delays), though the Almond Village worked very hard on our behalf despite us booking the flights independently (via Cyprus Direct).
