Ivi Mare

Came here for our honeymoon, waw, it is the best hotel i have ever stayed in. The facilities, the restaurants were amazing but the staff make it, every single member of staff here are out standing.. polite, friendly, helpful they go out of the way to do anything for you.. Youssef, Barbara, Priya, Mohammed, Tom.. we're just a few that I had to mention.. can't wait to return to this hotel.. Thanks ❤️

We stayed at the Ivi Mare for the first time in July 2024 and decided to go back this year. I read all the Tripadvisor reviews before booking and each one gave a 5 star review so I was wondering what to expect this time as it was really good in 2024. I have to say the customer service is absolutely fantastic, the best I’ve experienced at a 5 star hotel, from Anna in Guest Relations, who makes herself known to you on arrival to make sure everything runs smoothly, to the smiling faces of the Receptionists who made sure my request for the same room as we had in 2024 was available. On arrival, we received a welcome back letter in our room with a bottle of Prosecco on ice and a couple of little cakes and a couple of apples, such a lovely gesture which made you feel really valued as a returning customer. The staff at all the restaurants are friendly and welcoming, a big shout out to my “Prada wearing glasses 👓 sister” Radosi, the amazing Pambos who is charming and always smiling and chatty and Rajan who is one of the waiters at the Japanese restaurant who is also friendly. I was so delighted that they have the same sun loungers as 2024 as this is definitely one of their USP’s as they are literally like lying on a comfy bed. I’ve never experienced that at any other 5 star hotel. The cleanliness around the pool is second to none and in fact around the entire hotel. The app for ordering drinks from the sun loungers works very well and the pool staff are excellent. The management have upped their game by giving out a free little smoothie by the pool late morning, a mini fruit stick around lunch and a mini chocolate ice mid afternoon, a lovely touch. Our flight home was a late evening flight so we requested late checkout. They have two late checkout options which are 3pm or 6pm. They come as an extra cost I think the 3pm is €60 and the 6pm one is €105. It can only be requested and if they have the availability, you are told 24 hours in advance. In my opinion, it is worthwhile doing so you can spend most of the day chilling by the pool, knowing that you still have your room to go back to, to freshen up before the flight. They do offer a courtesy room if you are unable to extend the checkout, I’m not sure what that entails as I didn’t ask. My only gripe is that It’s a shame that they do not have a small shop on the premises just selling essentials but there is a supermarket which is around a 10 minute walk. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and had a very relaxing holiday and would definitely return again!

A wonderful relaxing hotel with fantastic staff and service and great food. Excellent location and the perfect choice if you are looking for a quiet and chilled holiday.

It was good I enjoyed it love it

The Ivi Mare is a really lovely hotel situated on the beach, although the beach is not the greatest and no direct access into the sea ( clamber over rocks) but a short walk and you can enter the sea if you want to. The hotel is clean and smelt lovely. The staff are all so friendly and will go above and beyond for you. Diana, Barbara, Pambos and Tom were absolutely amazing- so attentive and engaging. The buffet was really good - always a good choice and the salads ( I am a salad dodger) were amazing. They only have two speciality restaurants and the Japanese is definitely worth a visit The pool bar do an app service which was always prompt - only criticism is it closed at 6 - the sun is still hot at 6 and it would have been nice to go and sit over by the bar for a drink before going to get ready. The upstairs bar is open but it didn’t feel right going on there on beach attire. The staff in the bar were also fabulous- friendly and nothing too much trouble. The rooms were nicely decorated and spacious- I have read that they were not cleaned / they are cleaned, I came back up my to room on one occasion and she was mopping and hoovering - so they do clean your room and not just make your bed. The gym is small but well equipped to do a workout - the spa was lovely I had a massage and a facial at a very good price and they were amazing. The entertainment- is hit and miss - personally I wouldn’t choose a hotel for the entertainment- we like to chat and play cards / but I have seen some other reviews about the entertainment and I have to agree - there’s a female singer on Monday evening and she was absolutely awful - I truly think I could sing better 🤣 They had a DJ on a few nights and they were good playing a variety of different songs. I also saw some people have said about the planes, they do go over on some days but tbh I didn’t find this to be anything to complain about - probably due to the Middle East we saw F16 fighter jets everyday - personally thought they were fabulous! I would recommend the hotel - we had a wonderful week and I miss the view already

This was my second visit to Ivi Mare and the trip was every bit as enjoyable as the first. The food is delicious and the dining room staff are so welcoming. I enjoyed lazing by the pool and having the luxury of drinks delivered to my lounger. I would like to especially mention Morad, Youssef and Sanju who are so hardworking, friendly and professional. Mohamed at the pool helped me with my parasol every day and was so polite. The rooms and general facilities are superb but what really makes the experience at the hotel so special is the fantastic team of staff who go above and beyond for all the guests. PS I would love to know where you source your fantastic sun loungers! Julie

Amazing spa treatment with Ismita ❤️ I had an absolutely incredible experience at the spa, and the highlight of my visit was the full body massage with Ismita B. From the moment the treatment began, she made me feel completely safe, cared for, and at ease. Her warm, kind, and professional manner created the perfect environment to truly relax. Ismita B is exceptionally skilled and used an impressive variety of massage techniques with confidence and precision. Every movement felt purposeful, and she intuitively knew exactly how to relieve tension while keeping the experience deeply calming. It was one of the best massages I have ever had. I genuinely didn't want the treatment to end. If I could hire Ismita B as my personal massage therapist, I would! She is a real credit to the spa, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. I will definitely be returning and will be requesting another treatment with her.

5 star rated absolutely justified. The hotel was spotless and pool area also. Breakfast was as good as anywhere we have been before ( we stayed bed and breakfast ) location is ideal if you want a bit of peace and quiet with a bust stop bang outside 611 bus in to the harbour €2. Plenty of good quality sun loungers, unfortunately still get the 5am bed hoggers, same people same beds. Already planning to return October time. Thanks Ivi Mare staff including those who don't get recognised. Gardeners out everyday cleaners keeping the standards high Reception and door men polite and professional Bar and restaurant staff always friendly and helpful 👌

I did massage with Asmita, she was amazing!!

I had an absolutely wonderful experience at the Aegean spa! The body exfoliation and massage were incredibly relaxing, leaving my skin feeling soft, refreshed, and completely rejuvenated. Every detail of the treatment was handled with care and professionalism. A special thank you to Ismita, who was exceptional throughout the session. She was warm, attentive, and highly skilled, making sure I was comfortable from start to finish. Her technique was excellent, and I left feeling completely relaxed and revitalized. I highly recommend this spa to anyone looking for a truly luxurious and therapeutic experience. I’ll definitely be returning!

The ivi mare is a beautiful hotel with some amazing staff, the one member of staff i would like to mention is Youssef, he made every night in the mirror bar a wonder, every service was delivered with a smile.

We had a really enjoyable holiday and were very happy with our experience. A special mention to Yousef, who was fantastic throughout our stay. He was friendly, helpful, and always happy to answer any questions we had. His great service made a positive difference to our holiday. Thank you, Yousef, and the whole team for a lovely stay!

The Ivi Mare is a beautiful hotel, spotlessly clean and the staff are wonderful and can’t do enough for you. The buffet is excellent always something for everyone. You can always get a sun bed whatever the time of day, there are always beds free. There is a tranquil and peaceful atmosphere which is perfect if you are looking for complete relaxation. A special shout out to Diana and Barbara, who made our stay extra special.

Lovely massage, very relaxing

This is the first time we have been to Cyprus and definitely will not be the last. Location was amazing , hotel was clean and the staff were friendly and helpful. Food was excellent, a different theme every night and lots of choice. Pambos and Muhammad went out of their way to make the dining experience special. The entertainment was a bit hit and miss but overall fantastic holiday.

Had the most wonderful massage from Asmita, she made me feel so comfortable and she was very experienced and has made me feel so much better

Very good. Excellent. I liked it.

Returned from a 10 night stay, our 4th visit! On the whole had a very enjoyable stay, just the odd grumble...a change in restaurant staff from our previous stay...quite a few miserable faces that need to improve! Doesn't take much to smile at guests! Hotel is fabulous as always, exceptionally clean, food good, however not as good as previously. Entertainment low key. Sunbeds are amazing & so comfortable! Bar staff work extremely hard, both during the day & at night. A huge shout out to Emad & Youssef who are an absolute asset to the hotel, remembering us & the drinks we had before. Emad remembered my cocktail, which had been removed from the menu & made for me...very impressed & very nice they were! We will return!

Do not hesitate to book treatments... I have had massages all over the world. This is undoubtedly one of the absolute best I have had. Intuitive, rejuvenating and clearly very skilled
