Columbia Beach Resort, Pissouri Bay, Cyprus
Tucked away on the south coast of Cyprus, in a setting of unspoilt countryside and at the centre of a quiet two kilometre Blue Flag beach, this low-rise resort ambles gently from the crystal clear waters of the sheltered Bay of Pissouri, and follows the natural incline of the landscape so that most of the luxurious suites here have an absolutely spectacular view.
Featuring beautiful hand-woven fabrics, elegant wooden furniture, and super-comfy beds, all 169 suites have been decorated to reflect the Cypriot landscape and Mediterranean Sea, with options for both families and couples to feel right at home.
A treat for all foodies, there's no shortage of dining options either. Whether you fancy indulging in an array of local dishes created using the freshest ingredients at the Apollo Tavern, or treating yourself to a celebration of the finest Contemporary European cuisine at Bacchus Restaurant, the three restaurants cater for every taste, including special menus for children. Unique to the island, there are a la carte dining options of Bed and Breakfast, Half Board and Full Board. And there's always somewhere different to relax with a drink looking out over unparalleled views of the resort or beach with a choice of six bars, from a swim-up pool bar to a traditional Cypriot Ouzeri and Street Eats on the deck of the Poseidon Beach Bar.
As well as giving you the time to sunbathe by the pool and dine at five-star restaurants, a break at Columbia Beach Resort is the perfect opportunity to try new experiences. Whether you want to take on Cyprus's championship golf courses, scuba-dive beneath the waves, or discover the island by bicycle, there are plenty of activities to enjoy all year round.
