The hotel location is great.
The sea and beachfront access is a dream.
The food and dining staff get two thumbs up.
The hotel cats are super chill and beautiful they can come to my house any time.
Not much to complain about really. Beach, food, clean, fully functional and friendly atmosphere is more than enough for me. Definitely coming back again!

Perfect 👌
Visited this hotel 3 times in the last few years. Perfect position with a beautiful pool and the sea directly behind you. Cocktails by the pool are amazing with Barbara at the bar. Always got a smile on her face and just gets to know what drinks you have ! Food is also very good as I always go all inclusive. The waitress Maria is amazing too and will cater for any needs you have. In fact the whole team at the hotel are superb, the cooks, serving staff, the rooms cleaned and beds made everyday. Reception staff are also very good and friendly
mostly speaking English as well as anybody and easy to understand. The views from the upper bar are incredible when the sun goes down as you relax and sip your cocktails. Thank you all for a totally relaxing time. Showers and changing rooms are also provided after you've checked out of your room and wait to be picked up by the airport shuttle before the four and a half hour flight back home. Great place and brilliant staff. Only one little thing I found that was a little odd was a certain lady in the hotel shop follows you everywhere you go in the shop making you feel like she thinks you are going to steal something even though its all only cheapy gifts !

Our experience at Venus Beach Hotel was average and did not fully meet our expectations for a 5-star hotel.
The food was good for the first 2–3 days, but afterwards it became very repetitive. The children were served pasta for 3 days in a row. We ordered a club sandwich from the other menu because we were not satisfied with the All Inclusive, and it took about an hour to arrive. The service was also slow; several times, the water arrived only after we had already started eating.
On one occasion, the meat was raw. We reported it and it was replaced immediately.
Cleanliness was also average. Our room smelled of cigarette smoke and room cleaning was quite delayed.
The playroom was almost empty, with old games, and all the games required an additional payment. The gym was good, but some handles were missing from one machine. There was live music at the bar, but we did not enjoy it. At the pool kiosk, there was not even a fruit platter, which felt rather stingy for a 5-star All Inclusive hotel.
Nevertheless, we would stay again mainly for the pool and the sea, but we would choose breakfast only. For us, the All Inclusive was not worth the money.

An unforgettable stay at Venus Beach! A place we will definitely return to!
We had an absolutely amazing vacation at the Venus Beach Hotel and want to express our deepest gratitude to the entire team for making our stay so perfect. This is truly a place we will definitely visit again!
Location & Views:
The hotel boasts a wonderful location — everything is close by, and the sea views, especially during sunset, are simply breathtaking. A huge plus is that it has, without a doubt, the best beach in the area! The clean golden sand, smooth entry into the water, and well-maintained beach area made our days absolutely perfect.
Service & Cleanliness:
The hotel itself has a very cozy and welcoming atmosphere. It is extremely clean everywhere, with regular and high-quality housekeeping. However, the real gem of Venus Beach is its staff. Every single team member is wonderful, polite, helpful, and multilingual, which made communication completely effortless.
Special Thanks:
We want to thank the entire staff for their high level of professionalism, but we would like to give a special mention to:
Milena at the reception — a true professional! She welcomed us with a warm smile, helped resolve all our check-in questions instantly, and remained incredibly helpful throughout our entire stay.
Maria, the Assistant Restaurant Manager — thanks to her flawless organization, the restaurant always runs perfectly, and the atmosphere is highly welcoming.
Varvara, the bartender — she makes amazing drinks, is always positive, very attentive, and friendly!
Dining:
The food deserves the highest praise. Everything was excellent, delicious, and fresh. The variety of dishes is huge — there was always plenty to choose from every single day, and absolutely everything we tried was cooked to perfection.
We loved our stay so much! A huge thank you to Venus Beach for your hospitality. See you next time!
P.S. Special thanks for the wonderful surprises! Upon arrival, we were welcomed with a lovely compliment from the hotel — a bottle of delicious Cypriot wine. Furthermore, on my birthday, the hotel surprised me with a bottle of very tasty champagne. Such attention to guests is incredibly heartwarming!

One of the best all-inclusive holidays we’ve had – we would definitely return
We’ve just come to the end of an amazing week at the Venus Hotel in Paphos and, having stayed at a lot of all-inclusive hotels over the years, I can honestly say this has been one of the best holidays we’ve had.
The food was genuinely impressive. You have four different places to eat and can visit each of them once during your stay as part of the all-inclusive package, which gives you some really welcome variety. Normally by this point in an all-inclusive holiday we are completely fed up with hotel food and have eaten out several times. This week, we simply haven’t needed to. The only time we ate elsewhere was because we were out in Paphos and didn’t get back in time for dinner!
My husband is one of the fussiest eaters you will ever meet and normally struggles with food on holiday, but he has eaten incredibly well here. He particularly loved the freshly cooked hot pasta station.
The staff have been fantastic. Maria deserves a very special mention because she was simply phenomenal – an absolute star and a real credit to the hotel. Gabrielle was also fantastic, and Barbara at the pool bar was brilliant. The service we received throughout the week was excellent.
Another huge positive is the lifeguards. They are genuinely the best lifeguards I have ever experienced at an all-inclusive hotel. They actually WATCH the children and take their responsibility seriously. Under-12s aren’t allowed to swim without adult supervision and, as a parent, I think that’s exactly how it should be. We saw some people complain about this and, unfortunately, even be unnecessarily rude to the lifeguards. Personally, I would much rather stay somewhere that takes children’s safety seriously than somewhere that turns a blind eye.
The sunbed policy is also excellent. Towels are removed from beds that have been left unattended for too long, which stops people reserving sunbeds for hours while they are elsewhere. As a result, we have never had a problem finding a sunbed by the pool.
There are a couple of small negatives, but neither would stop us returning. The inside of the hotel is a little dated in places. The reception area perhaps doesn’t have the immediate “wow factor” you might expect, and the corridors could do with some updating. That said, our room was absolutely fine, comfortable and we had no issues with it whatsoever.
It was also a little disappointing that some drinks, including Prosecco, aren’t included in the all-inclusive package, although this really wasn’t a major problem for us.
I would genuinely take some of the negative reviews of this hotel with a pinch of salt. If you are expecting a gourmet fine-dining experience from an all-inclusive hotel, or expect the lifeguards to supervise your children while you sit in the bar, then perhaps you will find things to complain about. For a family wanting good food, great service, a lovely pool area and a safe, enjoyable holiday, we thought it was fantastic.
Finally, a huge thank you to Maria and the rest of the team, and hats off to Kerry, the General Manager. Whatever he and his team are doing, it is working.
We arrived expecting a nice week away and are leaving having had one of our favourite all-inclusive holidays.
We would absolutely return to the Venus Hotel.
