Guide to Luxury Holidays in Cyprus

Cyprus is an island with distinct qualities. In the southwest, archaeological parks and an atmospheric necropolis rival serene beaches with turquoise waters. Towards the southeast, castles and monasteries tower over bays with golden sand. With famous mountains and thick forests, a luxury holiday in Cyprus offers you the chance to relax, explore and travel back in time.
The third-largest island in the Mediterranean Sea, Cyprus is a colourful place filled with myths and magical beaches. In Paphos, you'll find amazing stretches of beach wherever you look and clear, warm waters. Ancient history sits on the doorstep of the city too, explore the Tombs of the Kings built thousands of years ago and Kato Paphos Archaeological Park with its amphitheatre and Roman mosaics.
Further east in Limassol, you’ll get to walk along beaches that unfold along translucent waters, then unearth the extraordinary history of Cyprus by discovering medieval fortresses, like Kolossi Castle and the ancient city of Kourion.

Things to do
Kykkos Monastery

Standing on a mountain peak in the Marathasa Valley, the renowned Kykkos Monastery is one of the wealthiest in Cyprus. The building is ornately decorated with impressive mosaics and artworks. Inside, there is a spectacular shrine and a museum housing rare artefacts, manuscripts and Cypriot antiquities. You'll also find one of the three surviving icons painted by the Apostle Luke.

Winery Tour

Cyprus has a long history in producing wine dating right back to the ancient Greeks. With a wine tour, you'll get to learn about that history and sample the award-winning wines made today. Discover the origins of the sweet Commandaria wine, have a taste, cleanse the palate and try some fruity reds and refreshing whites.

The Tombs of the Kings

Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, this ancient necropolis is believed to have been a burial site for the aristocracy. Consisting of a series of underground tombs cut into the rock, with some dating as far back as the 300 BC, this archaeological site gives you a glimpse into the distant past.

Paphos Castle

Located on the edge of Paphos harbour, this iconic fortress rises out the water. Originally built by the Byzantines and later restored by the Ottomans, the castle has been used for many different purposes, from a prison to a salt warehouse. Today, it makes for an ideal day out.

Helicopter Tour

Enjoy a flight over Cyprus in a helicopter and capture the photographic beaches from above. Soar across the land and waltz below the clouds. If you thought the beaches were beautiful from land, from the air you'll get to see the multicoloured waters from a unique perspective and truly enjoy majesty of the sea.

Insider Review
One morning, when Gregor Samsa woke from troubled dreams, he found himself transformed in his bed into a horrible vermin. He lay on his armour-like back, and if he lifted his head a little he could see his brown belly, slightly domed and divided by arches into stiff sections. The bedding was hardly able to cover it and seemed ready to slide off any moment. His many legs, pitifully thin compared with the size of the rest of him, waved about helplessly as he looked. “What’s happened to me? ” he thought. It wasn’t a dream. His room, a proper human room although a little too small, lay peacefully between its four familiar walls. A collection of textile samples lay spread out on the table – Samsa was a travelling salesman – and above it there hung a picture that he had recently cut out of an illustrated magazine and housed in a nice, gilded frame. It showed a lady fitted out with a fur hat and fur boa who sat upright, raising a heavy fur muff that covered the whole of her lower arm towards the viewer. Gregor then turned to look out the window at the dull weather. Drops of rain could be heard hitting the pane, which made him feel quite sad. “How about if I sleep a little bit longer and forget all this nonsense”, he thought, but that was something he was unable to do because he was used to sleeping on his right, and in his present state couldn’t get into that position. However hard he threw himself onto his right, he always rolled back to where he was. He must have tried it a hundred times, shut his eyes so that he wouldn’t have to look at the floundering legs, and only stopped when he began to feel a mild, dull pain there that he had never felt before. “Oh, God”, he thought, “what a strenuous career it is that I’ve chosen!
