Where should you stay in Limassol, Cyprus?

What happens when you combine 100,000sqm of landscaped gardens, four glistening pools, five top notch restaurants, two buzzy bars, one private spa and an all-day playground for the kids? The answer: Parklane, a Luxury Collection Resort & Spa. We head to Cyprus’ only internationally branded luxury resort to find out more

Only the most ardent aquaphobes will be able to resist Parklane’s excellent swimming opportunities. The perfect spot for a beach break, the resort’s 300m of sandy beach means you’ll have full access to the Mediterranean - and the scuba gear to explore it with. Back at the hotel, you can luxuriate in any of three pristine outdoor pools - including one with seawater and one for adults only - or, if you prefer your backstroke without the sunstroke, there are heated indoor options, with towels provided.

Birthplace of Aphrodite, Cyprus is the right place for grand gestures and romantic ventures. Begin your journey with a saunter through a grove of brilliant-green citrus and olive trees at the hotel entrance before heading for the award-winning hands of the Kalloni spa’s relaxation team. Then, follow those gentle melodies to the seafront, where, at The Gallery lounge bar, you can enjoy music from the resident pianist. And, for an unforgettable night’s sleep, consider an adults-only lifestyle suite, with spectacular views and the smell of sea air wafting through an open window. There’s even a chapel, just in case. 

Food of the gods

Rest assured, there is never a hungry moment at Parklane. With Cypriot, Italian, Japanese, steakhouse and seafood options at your beck and call, stomach grumbles and fast-food fumbles are out of the question. After you’re full on gourmet Cypriot cuisine from the wood-roasting specialists at Dafne or pizza and Italian wines from Il Teatro, head to Vithos beach bar or Lanes Restaurant, where your Chardonnay selection awaits you in a temperature-controlled cabinet. And with 24-hour room service, deliciousness is only a phone call away.

You won’t be short on sport during your stay at Parklane. If keeping fit is a priority, you’ll be delighted to find cardiovascular equipment, free weights and fitness classes on offer. Not to mention a resort-exclusive studio dedicated to Pilates and aerobics. If you’d rather pick up points than dumbbells, there’s a choice of three tennis courts, a mini-football pitch, archery ranges and bike rental services.

With Limassol’s tourist-friendly culture and wide selection of restaurants and attractions, it’s no wonder this coastal city was rated the third most up-and-coming destination in the world by TripAdvisor. Whether you want clubs, cathedrals, museums, markets or more halloumi than you could possibly eat, Limassol can provide it. During the summer, visit the city’s Wine Festival, and make sure to check out Limassol Castle - where Richard the Lionheart wed Queen Berengaria back in 1191.
