Cleanliness consistently rated well, with guests appreciating the tidy rooms and public areas. The private beach is praised for its clear water and golden sand, described as one of the best in Cyprus. The breakfast buffet receives positive comments for variety and quality, with some guests calling it a delight. Friendly staff members, especially noted for polite and helpful service by returning guests. Facilities such as the gym and spa area are well-regarded, adding value to the stay. Multiple reviews mention poor communication about the casino closure and management unavailability. Guests report that some rooms are outdated with broken carpets, small size, and inconsistent air conditioning. Food quality is inconsistent; some find the buffet cold and limited primarily to Turkish cuisine. Reported noisy events (e.g., political dinners with loud rock music) disrupt guest relaxation. Service quality varies, with some guests feeling foreign visitors are not well attended to and staff lacking smiles.

We had a terrible stay. The hotel is promoted as the Arkin Palm Beach hotel and Casino. The casino is closed. There was no communication from the hotel that the casino was no longer available. When I asked to discuss this with a manager I was told the manager was at home and I was not important enough for him to speak to me. When I reiterated I would like to speak to someone in charge I was told there was no one!! Eventually when I pointed out someone must be ultimately responsible for the hotel a ‘general manager’ was wheeled out. To compensate us for the lack of communication we were offered (after he had rung the manager at his home) a free evening meal. The food was absolutely terrible. The hotel advertises itself as Northern Cyprus’s most luxurious 5 star boutique hotel. The food was most definitely not 5 star. None of the menus they advertise were available and the only offering were a buffet in one restaurant, heavily targeted towards a Turkish palette. It was not good food and it was cold.
The hotel is very clean and sits on a lovely beach which we would have visited if it was not raining but overall location and cleanliness do compensate for poor service and incorrect advertising. I will not be returning.

Once again my wife and I enjoyed a relaxing break at the Palm Beach. We stayed in a junior suite on a b&b basis. As usual breakfast was a delight, and the hot offerings all very enticing. As returning guests, we have made an effort to learn enough turkish to say good morning, good evening, thank you and the bill please, and the effort really pays off. We love the beach area (apart from the so called music eminating from the beach restaurant at times), and there is never a problem finding loungers. We only ate dinner once in the restaurant, but as usual the quality and variety was first class. Desserts were varied and imaginatively presented. I would agree with some reviews regarding the decor - yes it could do with a makeover, but this did not impact on our stay. We will be booking again for next year.

We have stayed here many times but this will probably be our last. The service was poor, we felt that they couldn’t be bothered to serve foreign guests. The room was small and had a lingering smell of smoke. Drinks were expensive. On one day they hosted a political dinner accompanied by very loud rock music - not conducive to a relaxing break.

Although nicely decorated, the concept was quite odd compared to other hotels in the area. During booking we chose the breakfast and dinner included option, however after checking in and we found out they don’t provide any amount of ‘decent’ drinks for both meals, which was quite disappointing. Additionally, the sea is quite rocky, and contains a very small area of the ocean. It is difficult to reach the deep clean areas. Shoreline is like a children’s pool! Last but not the least, despite the fact that we booked early, we ended up paying more than the same day booking. Overall, we ended up paying more for less than 3-star-hotel service. I would not recommend.

Avoid . Overpriced. Rooms have broken carpets. Very old rooms that lack maintenance. Air conditioning works on an ON/OFF basis , no thermostat, so it's either super hot or super cold. They were changing the carpet in the corridor outside our room making lots of noise and then complained they ignored us. Breakfast place was FULL, super noisy small dinning place with kids shouting. Staff not properly trained, who never smile and look unhappy . For 275 euros it's a rip off. We were the only non Turkish tourists there, they made us feel uncomfortable. Poor English spoken.

The view overlooking the beach is amazing, but the rest of the hotel is mediocre 😒

Nice hotel, great location, and friendly staff.

It’s very pricey for what it actually is. The staff are lovely, especially Nazar who was an affable and friendly chap, however this hotel does not represent value for money. The facilities are very basic and this is reflected in the rooms and amenities. The dining, although acceptable, is nothing to write home about. The pool is very basic and there is very little for the children to do. I am also confused about the beaches, which people seem to love, but I found to be nice but not spectacular. Either I missed the point of this hotel or people have unnecessarily hyped it up. This felt like a very basic IBIS type hotel that happens to be in Cyprus. Considering what they charge, I think the Arkin needs to step it up.

Excellent location, breakfast very good. Spa area nice too. Only snag is that we requested ice to our room , they told us that they would to chargeable.
