This year the owners of the famous Almond Resort and hotel in Alsancak have come up with a new concept; mixing their delightful family holiday destination with longer term facilities particularly intended to cater for older guests who would like some assistance close to hand.
As soon as you walk into the entrance of the Almond you are faced with a warm and pleasant environment. There is a European, somewhat Germanic air about the main hotel foyer. You follow through the building and it takes you to a beautiful swimming pool and various seating areas. Beyond, there are the exquisitely maintained gardens and then further on you will come across the Bee hives and chicken rearing area, where there are also Ostriches!
Time for change.
This season, for the first time, the Asik family, who have been running he Almond since its inception, have introduced a number of long-term accommodation options designed to make life comfortable for those who no longer wish to live conventional accommodation. Situated in a separate area from the other accommodation for added privacy, there are a range of 2-bedroom bungalows, with wheelchair access. This accommodation provides 24 hour security and assistance and use of all the hotel facilities such as swimming pool, gym and gardens. There are also single room units available for long term rent.
Long term accommodation
The concept is described eloquently by Gulten, daughter of the founders, (responsible for marketing and PR): ‘We have seen so many people leaving North Cyprus because they lose confidence with age, homeownership is to much of a burden and they are lonely….It is now a passion for us to help seniors enjoy their lives with like minded people by creating a lovely community at The Almond – where people are friendly, fun and helpful. We have created onsite clubs and arranged for social events purely for this reason…’
The hotel web site linked below show the full details of accommodation options. Price for long term accommodation will depend of duration and season and emailing the address below will help you find out all you need to know.
