The 110-room upscale Constantinou Bros Asimina Suites Hotel is an adult-only resort on a private rocky beach with two large outdoor pools plus a heated indoor pool. Sophisticated amenities include a full-service spa, a large fitness center, and three restaurants -- plus thoughtful touches such as staff passing out frozen fruit by the pool. Bright suites feature comfy beds, private balconies, and marble bathrooms, but the wood furnishings are dated. Although there is some evening entertainment, this is not a party hotel -- it has a genuine romantic vibe with enough good food and on-site services and activities to please guests who want to relax and stay put. It's worth comparing rates with the Louis King Jason hotel, which has more modern rooms but is a 10-minute walk to the beach.
Scene
Calm and upscale atmosphere, plus plenty of personal space
The Constantinou Bros Asimina Suites Hotel is a relaxed adult-only property, with plenty of activities but no super-energized staff staging pool games and karaoke nights. Rather, this is a resort for grown-ups, evidenced by the dress code required for dinner and the pool bar tables sporting linen tablecloths. The ambience is relaxed yet upscale -- with welcome drinks offered upon arrival, fresh fruit-infused water available in the lobby, and cold towels distributed on the sundeck in the afternoons. Many area hotel beaches are pure rock, but the Asimina Suites has a man-made beach of both rock and white sand, plus a pier jutting past the surf for easier access to the water and romantic dinner setups. The property is one of the top hotels in the area, but the evening entertainment can be dull and predictable. The large pool deck is outfitted with plenty of cushioned sunbeds and beach umbrellas, or guests can claim a lounger in the pretty garden area beside a fountain. Many visitors -- almost exclusively couples -- choose to stay put for the majority of their time here, but the town's restaurants and bars are within easy walking distance.
Location
On a private sand and rock beach, about a 10-minute drive to Paphos City center
The Constantinou Bros Asimina Suites Hotel is located on a private man-made beach outside Paphos City, along a main road lined with resorts and hotels.

Paphos Harbor is a seven-minute drive or about a 25-minute walk, and the Medieval Castle is a half-hour walk from the resort. Aphrodite Waterpark is a seven-minute drive, and there are four golf courses within a 10-minute drive of the hotel. Paphos Airport is a 20-minute drive away, and Larnaca Airport is a 90-minute drive.
