Loved by Golden Bay Beach Hotel guests
"We arrived at the Golden Coast this morning to find a very clean and security conscious safe haven for customers."
"Lovely hotel with a great pool and private beach."
"The location of the hotel is good: outside the town of Larnaka, but with regular buses, which are extremely good value."

great beachfront experience
welcome plattergreat breakfasttennis courtfriendly staff
The breakfast was really good with coffee delivered right to my table. i enjoyed the chillout music and huge windows while eating. i received a welcome fruit platter with wine in my room also water too either bottled or free lemonade. the tennis court and gym were great, and i loved the friendly cats around the hotel. jet ski was so much fun. It was available for water sports.
the pool card system was unusual because you needed to reserve beach beds and place the card in there for the whole stay. this meant some empty beds were unavailable for use.
