Columbia Beach Resort
Situated in the peaceful Bay of Pissouri, Columbia Beach Resort radiates the charm and character of traditional Cypriot architecture, with low-rise buildings, honey-coloured stone walls and quaint archways leading to vibrant grounds and a Blue Flag sand and shingle beach.
Tucked away amid rolling hillsides and overlooking the Mediterranean Sea, the property feels secluded and exclusive, with 169 suites designed in harmony with the surrounding landscape, each with a private balcony and either garden, pool or azure sea views.
Food and drink are something of a focal point here, with three restaurants and six bars (including a swim-up pool bar). Everything from the island’s freshest seafood to sharing plates of local mezze plus freshly prepared sushi and hand-crafted pizza, is available in resort, and both half-board and full-board options are available.
Children can make new friends and learn new skills at the kids’ club and creche, where a programme of indoor and outdoor activities is on offer every day from 9am til 5pm.
Adults, meanwhile, can relax at the Hébe Spa, go diving among shipwrecks and underwater reefs, tee off at no fewer than four nearby golf courses (including one designed by Nick Faldo), explore the island by bike, or take to the water in any number of different ways, from waterskiing and wakeboarding to kayaking and jet-skiing.
