    Yours was about a tenner cheaper with the hotel through medhotels including transfers.
    Still a great deal to Cyprus for this time of the year.

    Wow those are some great deals to Cyprus there... does anyone know what it's like? I've never been or researched it really... is it a 4 hour flight time and 2 hour time difference like greece and does it use the Euro and have the same kind of beaches? Thanks!

    Looking at all the others too!

    I have been to Paphos once 3 years ago and loved it.We went in the May and the weather was gorgeous.Flight time is around 4 hours and time difference as you said is 2 hours.
    Cyprus uses the Cypriot pound and i think the exchange rate is around 0.84 to our £.
    Im sure when Saveapenny comes back on she will tell you more as im sure she has been a few times.

    Or you can check out Holiday Truths,Cyprus forum.

    Cyprus is lovely and both the hotels we have posted are in a good location and its cheap enough just to jum in a taxi when you get to the airport ...Its shouldnt cost no more than about £10 each way
    Some goood trips to be done and the food ..well mmmm is all I can say and at those prices if the food isnt top notch you can afford to eat out a couple of nights at a local taverna.
    The Tordos Mts this time of year should be very nice unlike March when we were there we sunbathed in the morning then it was -2 up the Mt later.
    Also Polis and Latchi are nice for a day trip or further afield and visit Cairo
    If you look anything like your passport photo....Your too ill to travel
