Hotels Near The Ayia Napa Strip
In order to get the best experience, we only offer hotels that have been highly rated by previous Party Harders.
Ayia Napa is full of hotels to host thousands of people each and every year. There are a lot that are very close to the square area and some that of course aren’t, make sure you check where your hotel is on the map before booking. Some of our popular hotels such as Green Bungalows sell out fast so get yours booked to avoid disappointment.
You’ll be charged a Tourist Tax when checking in. This amount is dependent on the star rating of the hotel, the number of nights you are staying, and the number of rooms booked. The amount is not typically more than 5 euros per night. It’s also very normal in party resorts for hotels to charge a returnable room deposit. These room deposits are typically €50 euros per person and returned to you after your stay (providing you haven’t had the paint party in your room!). You’ll get these deposits back after the hotel staff give your room a check-over when you check out so don’t go too hard the night before – give yourself plenty of time to check out and get to the airport.
More than likely, there will be a damages list in your room. You don’t want to blow your spending money on any new furniture so treat the place with respect. After all, this is going to be your home for the week.
