7 picks in Cyprus

Where to stay with kids in Cyprus

We list areas and property types rather than single hotels: family-room availability changes constantly, and the area plus the room requirement is what survives contact with a booking engine.
Cyprus with Kids: Itineraries, Where to Stay & When to Go

Family hotel picks in Cyprus

  • Paphos — all-inclusive family resorts
    Kato Paphos / Coral BayMid-range

    Paphos — all-inclusive family resorts

    The standard Cyprus family product: pools with slides, a kids' club, family rooms and food included, with the beach and the archaeological park close by.

    • Multiple pools, usually including a children's pool with slides
    • Kids' club and evening entertainment
    • Family rooms and interconnecting doubles as standard
    • 15-minute transfer from Paphos airport

    Fitting a family in

    Family rooms sleeping four are the norm. Check whether a sofa bed counts towards the stated occupancy.

    Watch out. All-inclusive packages differ sharply on à la carte restaurants, branded drinks and kids' club hours. Compare inclusions, not just the headline rate.

  • Coral Bay — apartments near the sand
    Coral BayBudget

    Coral Bay — apartments near the sand

    Cheaper than the big resorts, with a kitchen and the best sandy beach in the area within walking distance.

    • Walking distance to Coral Bay beach
    • Kitchen for breakfasts and snacks
    • Restaurant strip on the doorstep

    Fitting a family in

    Two-bedroom apartments are widely available and well below resort prices for the same occupancy.

    Watch out. Fewer on-site facilities: no kids' club, and pools are shared and small.

  • Protaras — beachfront family hotels
    Fig Tree Bay / PerneraMid-range

    Protaras — beachfront family hotels

    Being directly behind the shallowest beach in Cyprus removes the transfer that makes a beach day hard work with toddlers.

    • Direct access to shallow Blue Flag beaches
    • Children's pools and shaded play areas
    • Quieter evening atmosphere than Ayia Napa

    Fitting a family in

    Family rooms and studios with kitchenettes are both common along this strip.

    Watch out. Transfer from Larnaca is 45–60 minutes, and around two and a half hours from Paphos airport.

  • Limassol — seafront resorts on the eastern strip
    Germasogeia / AmathusMid-range

    Limassol — seafront resorts on the eastern strip

    This is the better stretch of the town beach, and it is the only part of Limassol where the promenade, the sand and a hotel pool are all on the doorstep of the same room.

    • Direct access to the promenade and the seafront park chain
    • Pools with children's sections and kids' clubs at the larger properties
    • Buses and a continuous walking route into the centre
    • Around 45 minutes from Larnaca airport

    Fitting a family in

    Family rooms sleeping four are standard and interconnecting doubles are common at the bigger hotels.

    Watch out. The beach in front is grey-brown coarse sand, narrow in places, and the busy coast road separates some hotels from the sea. Several neighbouring plots have been under tower construction, so a sea-view room is worth confirming rather than assuming.

  • Limassol — apartments near the old town and marina
    Old town / MarinaMid-range

    Limassol — apartments near the old town and marina

    Staying in the centre turns dinner into a walk rather than a taxi and puts the castle, the marina and the start of the promenade within a few minutes of the front door.

    • Restaurants, the castle and the marina on foot
    • Kitchen for breakfasts and early dinners
    • The seafront park chain begins nearby

    Fitting a family in

    One and two-bedroom apartments are plentiful, usually in modern blocks with a lift and sometimes a rooftop pool.

    Watch out. There is no swimmable beach on the doorstep — the usable sand is a bus or taxi ride east — and the marina and old-town bars run late at weekends.

  • Larnaca — beachfront hotels on the Dhekelia strip
    Oroklini / Pyla / Dhekelia RoadMid-range

    Larnaca — beachfront hotels on the Dhekelia strip

    The larger family hotels with pools, kids' clubs and a beach in front of them are here rather than in the town, and the beaches east of the centre are wider and quieter than Finikoudes.

    • Beachfront position with pools and children's sections
    • Quieter, wider sand than the town beach
    • 20 to 30 minutes from the airport
    • Buses along the strip into Larnaca

    Fitting a family in

    Family rooms sleeping four are the standard product, with some all-inclusive properties offering two-room family suites.

    Watch out. It is a linear strip with the main road behind it and very little to walk to, so evenings mean the hotel or a taxi into town. Some stretches of sand are noticeably coarser than the brochure photographs suggest.

  • Larnaca — apartments behind Finikoudes
    Finikoudes / Town centreBudget

    Larnaca — apartments behind Finikoudes

    A ten-minute transfer, a beach and a promenade of playgrounds and cafés within a couple of minutes' walk make this the easiest place in Cyprus to land with tired children.

    • Walk to the beach, the promenade and the marina
    • Kitchen, which matters most on arrival and departure days
    • Cheapest of the Cypriot bases for the same standard

    Fitting a family in

    One and two-bedroom apartments in town blocks are widely available, most with a lift and some with a small shared pool.

    Watch out. The town beach is narrow and crowded in high summer, there is usually no pool or kids' club, and the southern side of town sits under the airport approach, so aircraft noise is part of the deal.
