Alexander The Great Hotel
Topsoil?
To me that looks like topsoil that is waiting to be used in some outdoor landscaping. I could be wrong though. I certainly wouldn't complain if the soil in my back garden looked like that!
Getting Nosey
I have seen a fair number of rumours posted online about the renovation. Let's put an end to them. The hotel has not been sold, and it is not being converted to an Adult Only place. In fairness to the gossipers, they probably got that last nugget from the signs promoting the Adult Only Amavi. To an idle observer it could look like they were converting the Alexander to an extension of the Amavi. To reiterate, this is not the case. The Alexander will be the same hotel it has always been. It will just be swankier.
Over The Fence
The last time I look in that direction it was covered in green sheets.
So that's the view from over the fence.

Sodap Beach Update
There was recently a bit of a kerfuffle in the press about the new cafe that is being built at the SODAP beach in Paphos. We couldn't help notice that the pictures used all showed the beach from one angle. So we took a New Year's Eve trip down to the coast, to get a clearer picture. Now you can judge for yourself just how much of an encroachment this cafe will be.Related Pages

eBookCyprus Road Trip 01: the Kathikas - Panagia Loop
Let me take you on a journey around the region of Paphos, Cyprus. Starting at Paphos itself, we travel to Akoursos, then Kathikas, Kritou Terra and Simou. We continue past Lasa and Kannaviou, before taking in the delights of Panagia. Getting a bit more adventurous, we visit the abandoned villages of Statos and Agios Fotios, before passing through Choulou, Letymbou and Polemi, and rejoining the main Paphos - Polis road.
The route is suitable for all types of vehicle, and requires no off-roading. The guide contains about 130 photographs including shots of all the road signs you need to pay attention to, as well as some of the highlights you may experience along the way.
There are also several maps which will help you keep your bearings.
You can do this journey in a day, or you can break it up into chunks. You can also do it in reverse, to get some completely different views. It is entirely up to you.
