Luxury Holiday to Cyprus

Located in the far east of the Mediterranean, Cyprus, sitting at the crossroads of Europe, the Middle East, Asia and Africa, is an intriguing blend of east and west. Ringed by azure waters, fringed by beautiful sands, and blessed with a seemingly endless summer, Cyprus is perhaps best known as a beach destination. However, its lush mountains, intriguing history, unique cuisine and luxurious accommodation options, can all be included in a luxury holiday to Cyprus, tailormade by Lightfoot Travel.

Cyprus is home to an array of beaches. Some are wild, like those on the rugged Akamas Peninsula at the northwest tip of the island. Elsewhere, there are golden sands, like Golden Beach on the Karpas Peninsula in North Cyprus. Perhaps the most famous beach sits on the south coast, a shingle beach with a large rock, said to be the birthplace of Aphrodite, Goddess of Love.

Ideal for history buffs, Cyprus is dotted with remains of its fascinating past. The Paphos Archaeological Park houses the monumental Tombs of the Kings, large underground tombs, and Roman houses with impressive mosaics. Inland, the verdant Troodos Mountains are home to Byzantine churches with superb frescoes. Contemporary film lovers will enjoy spotting the filming locations for the popular Netflix film, Find Me Falling which was filmed in Paphos and Nicosia in 2022.

Cyprus continues to be a popular choice for families with the award-winning Anassa Resort a firm favourite of ours. The hotel's ‘Baby Go Lightly’ service makes travelling with little ones a breeze and there's also a fantastic Kids club offering unique activities include pottery lessons, baking, treasure hunts, photography and archaeology.

Cypriot cuisine mirrors its unique blend of cultures, including Greek, Turkish and Middle Eastern dishes. From halloumi to seafood to mouth-watering tapas, you certainly won’t go hungry here. With some of the finest hotels, villas and spas in the Mediterranean and some of the friendliest locals you could wish to meet, Cyprus has all the ingredients for an exceptional holiday.
