I don t normally leave hotel reviews, but after staying at the Parklane Resort & Spa in Limassol, I felt compelled to share my powerful experience.

It all starts with a decision to surprise my wife for her birthday and take the family on a spontaneous vacation.

From the minute we arrived at the resort, each and every staff member was attentive to our needs, even before we expressed them.

At check in, both the receptionist and the Manager (Symeon Melikoglou), recognized that it was my wife s birthday and upgraded us to a beach view room at no extra cost.

At the pool, we had Dimitri from the Gallery restaurant bring us our orders (which we re not on the regular menu) all the way down to the poolside. In addition, the folks at Vitos Bar were extremely accommodating, bringing us a high chair for the baby and doing everything in their power to make our stay as pleasant as possible.

Last but not least, Irina and Beatrice. These two, together with Symeon have arranged for our luggage (which we left at the airport), to be delivered all the way to our doorstep.

To sum it all up, the extraordinary people, together with top-end customer service, endless list of amenities, breath-taking view, amazing food and a spectacular mini "Disneyland" kids park, are responsible for one of the best family vacations we ever had.

We will definitely be back. Score: An easy 5-Stars!
