Choose a city or coastal base in Cyprus

A Cyprus stay can focus on historic city streets, a coastal setting or the countryside. Nicosia and Limassol offer two different starting points: the capital's walled old city and modern urban life, or a coastal city with a marina and waterfront outings. Choose the setting before narrowing down the hotel.

Nicosia for a capital-city visit

Nicosia-region accommodation covers the capital and a wider area. In Nicosia itself, museums, galleries and the old city within Venetian walls give a cultural visit its focus. A hotel selected for the urban itinerary serves a different plan from a stay in one of the region's rural villages.

Limassol for a coastal city stay

Limassol-region stays offer another choice. The city combines coastal strips, dining and shopping with a modern marina. It suits travellers who want time in a city as well as a seaside setting.

The region also extends inland towards mountain villages. Choose the actual town and property location rather than assuming every Limassol-region hotel is by the sea. A marina outlook, a beach setting and countryside accommodation provide different experiences.

Arrange the stay around your Cyprus itinerary

For a holiday from the Philippines, decide whether one setting is the focus or whether you want separate city and coastal nights. Within each destination, compare the room layout and property setting around the way you will spend the day. Let the local destination guides handle the neighbourhood detail once you have chosen the base.
