Affluent vacationers, both local Cypriots and tourists from abroad, opt for opulent seaside resorts for their holiday getaways.
Luxury Seaside Hotels in Cyprus Attract European Tourists
Efforts are underway to extend hotel bookings in Cyprus until the end of November, as the Mediterranean island nation continues to attract a significant number of tourists, particularly during the summer months.
The Famagusta District, known for its picturesque beaches and historic sites, is the top choice for summer holidays and relaxation on Cyprus for both Cypriot and international tourists. The district's luxury seaside hotels are a major draw, with a range of high-end accommodations available to cater to every taste.
Some of the most popular luxury seaside hotels in Cyprus include the Chrysomare Beach Hotel and Resort in Ayia Napa, a 5-star beachfront hotel on the famous Nissi Beach known for contemporary luxury, family-friendly facilities, and premium all-inclusive services. The Four Seasons Hotel in Limassol is another highly-rated option, offering luxury amenities such as pools, gyms, and private balconies.
In Paphos, the Elysium Hotel and Amavi, MadeForTwo Hotels stand out as top choices for luxury accommodation. The Elysium Hotel, with its ornate furnishings and beachfront access, is near key historic sites and boasts a traveler rating of 4.8/5. Amavi, designed for adults, is noted for its luxury and private balcony views, with a rating of 4.9/5.
Other notable luxury hotels in Cyprus include the Ciao Stelio Deluxe Hotel - Adults Only in Larnaca and Amadora Luxury Villas in Paralimni.
The countries with the highest number of tourists visiting these luxury seaside hotels in Cyprus are primarily from Europe. While the search results do not explicitly list the nationalities of most visitors, Cyprus tourism trends generally show that the largest tourist groups visiting luxury resorts typically come from the United Kingdom, Russia, Germany, Greece, and other European countries.
This aligns with Cyprus’s common tourism statistics where the UK and Russia are leading markets for premium and luxury resort stays. Hotel occupancy rates during the summer have reached approximately 85%, with foreign tourists making up the majority of guests.
Seaside four-star hotels remain the most popular choice for accommodation in Cyprus, with Paphos ranking second in popularity among both local and foreign visitors for summer holidays in Cyprus. Three-star hotels in Cyprus have limited availability during the summer, as Cypriots have shown a strong preference for rental homes during their summer holidays, often staying for several nights.
Larnaca has risen in preference among tourists for summer holidays in Cyprus this year, with strong bookings for Cyprus accommodation extending into September and October. Five-star hotels in Limassol and Paphos are also highly sought after, as Scandinavian tourists continue to favor Cyprus as a destination in late summer and autumn due to its warm climate.
According to Christos Angelidis, General Director of PASYXE, these trends have been reported to OffsiteNews.
