There are so many deals to near and far away places that it is no longer feasible to offer "specials" to anywhere —just know that they exist all the time to everywhere!!! This last weekend Carol and I spent a very special 4 days at the new Anassa Hotel — 35 minutes drive from the Paphos Airport in Cyprus, which is in itself only a 45 minute flight from Tel Aviv. I can honestly say that the hotel is without doubt the finest hotel I have ever stayed at — a real masterpiece — on the sea, beautiful setting, great food, but wow, it is expensive!!! — something to save for a special occasion.
