The 12 Best Family Hotels on Cyprus
For luxury
- Almyra is a five-star property set directly on the beach in Paphos. Expect all the luxury trimmings with exemplary service, excellent restaurants and an indulgent spa. Meanwhile, children are cared for with a personalised concierge service and a kids club.
- Amathus Beach Limassol is another beach-side luxury offering. Situated in Limassol and near a number of archaeological sites. Within the grounds, there's a number of pools and restaurants and the beach is solely for guests' use.
- Four Seasons Cyprus is a luxury resort on the beach just outside Limassol. Expect five-star services and facilities typical of the Four Seasons group. As suitable for families as it is for couples.
- Grecian Park Hotel is a five-star offering in Ayia Napa. Rooms are chic and contemporary with lovely sea views. The facilities are extensive including tennis courts, a pool, a children's play park, and (of course) there's the beach.
- Columbia Beach Resort is a stunning bay-front beach resort with beautiful suites, restaurants, a spa, enormous pool and private beach. With dedicated family suites and a kids club, children are well taken care of.
For a rural hideaway
- Apokryfo is a gorgeously characterful hotel in a sleepy village, with an excellent restaurant, plus both a spa and a lovely pool. The two villas, and the fact that children below 7 stay for free, makes this great for families.
- Amarakos Farmhouse is a small family-run guesthouse complete with a courtyard restaurant-bar which serves home-cooked, mostly organic, food from the family farm. Spend days lounging by the pool or hiking in the picturesque countryside. A laid-back stay.
For the spa
- Azia Resort & Spa is an elegant five-star property located on a quiet beach outside Paphos offering a number of activities for all ages. Interiors are contemporary, there's no less than nine restaurants and the spa (which uses Elemis products) is award-winning.
- Parklane Resort & Spa is a luxury hotel sandwiched between a picturesque stretch of beach and the ancient city-kingdom of Amathous. With a kids club and a wide range of accommodation on offer, families are well catered for. Meanwhile for adults, the spa is expansive and indulgent.
- Elysium is an elegant five-star hotel. Maisonettes are on offer for families and there are all the expected facilities of a luxury resort. The world-class spa is the real draw here though.
For the activities
- Anassa is arguably one of Cyprus' best hotels, offering spectacular views from the elegant rooms. Pick this hotel for the wide range of activities on offer from hiking to scuba diving. To top it all off, there is a wonderful spa to unwind in after an action packed day.
For foodies
- Amara is a bespoke five-star resort nestled on the southeastern coast of Cyprus in Limassol. Private bungalows are ideal for families and the beach is right on your doorstep. The real lure though is the superb Michelin starred restaurant, Ristorante Locatelli.
