Atlantica Imperial Resort

An introduction to Atlantica Imperial Resort

Flanked by dramatic cliffs and right by the sea, the Atlantica Imperial Resort is in a wonderful out-of-the-way spot. Better still, Kolymbia's sand and shingle beach is on the doorstep. Plus, it's just a short walk to the tavernas and bars of Kolymbia town.

The swimming pool is amazing. Laid out like a tropical lagoon, it's surrounded by lawns, sunloungers and palm-thatched parasols. There's even an outdoor whirlpool. What's more, the whole area looks out to sea so you can drink in those fabulous views.

On the bedroom front, the standard ones are very spacious. They're decorated in shades of cream and terracotta and furnished with attractive pale wood furniture. The superior rooms, meanwhile, are kitted out with special extras like bathrobes and Hi-Fi systems. For the ultimate in luxury, plump for a junior suite or an ultra-exclusive mezzanine suite. The first come with muslin-draped four-poster beds and contemporary wicker furniture while the latter boast split-level rooms, with lounges and open-plan bedrooms. Whichever type of room you go for, every one comes with a balcony or garden terrace as standard.

As lovely as the rooms are, it's the public areas that steal the limelight. At the hotel's heart is a cathedral-like atrium. Topped by a colossal blue-glass dome, this spectacular space features a tropical garden, complete with palm trees. A twin staircase sweeps up the middle, connecting the lobby to the overhead gallery floors. Close by, the lounge-bar, with its floor-to-ceiling windows, is filled with contemporary cream sofas and French-style salon chairs dressed in zebra stripes.

The restaurant is also very chic. Think striking black and white chequered floors, crisp white tablecloths and modern cream-coloured chairs. And the food is just as good as the setting, with lavish buffets the mainstay. As this hotel is also part of the Thomson Gold portfolio, you can expect plenty in the way of top entertainment – everything from live music to comedy and professional shows. Factor in tennis courts, a fitness centre and watersports and you've got one seriously impressive hotel.

This hotel is tops. Upgrade to All Inclusive if you can it cost us 20 euros per day each (although this was a special offer at the time) and was well worth the extra. It added about #200 to the cost of our holiday but was well worth it. The hotel is... more on this review
