Why Cyprus is the best destination for couples

Fancy a trip tailor-made for two? Cyprus called.
While Cyprus might be small in size, its appeal is extensive. From Blue Flag beaches and ancient history, to olive groves, vineyards and meze – this Mediterranean marvel’s the perfect couples’ retreat. Of course, you expect your hotel to be a bit special, too, so chic rooms, tasty food and cut-above pool scenes go without saying. And, with the summer holidays upon us, the last thing you want is screaming school children ruining precious together-time – so an adults-only haven’s a must. That’s where our TUI BLUE For Two collection comes in, offering stylish hotels in great locations to help you reconnect with your loved ones and tick off all your #CoupleGoals. Here, we help you plan your romantic escape in Cyprus…

1. TUI BLUE ATLANTICA BAY 

If you’re looking for a tranquil retreat with a low-key atmosphere, TUI BLUE Atlantica Bay is the perfect choice. It has a modern, sophisticated feel, so expect elegant design touches all round. Bedrooms come in hushed eggshell shades, while the restaurants feature high-backed chairs and opulent chandeliers. Entertainment-wise, everything’s geared towards winding down, with occasional acoustic sounds and a live pianist, who tinkers the ivory twice a week. Don’t miss out on the wine-tasting sessions – they’re a real favourite.

2. WHAT IF I WANT TO LIVEN THINGS UP A BIT?

This place is all about providing the ideal backdrop for reconnecting with your partner, so if you’re after the block-rocking beats of Ayia Napa, think twice. It’s set in sleepy Amathus Bay, so be prepared for less UV paint and more sunset strolls. That doesn’t mean tumbleweed-town, though. For after-dark entertainment, Molly Malone’s Irish Bar is just a short walk away, and provides singing, dancing and a friendly gaggle of locals and ex-pats. If that’s not going to cut it, and you’d rather move through the gears after dark, lively Limassol’s your best bet – it’s just a 15-minute taxi ride away.

3. TUI BLUE PIONEER BEACH 

TUI BLUE Pioneer Beach allows you to effortlessly juggle culture and relaxation. If you’re the kind of couple that likes to slow things down, this beachfront 5T-rated hotel makes it easy. Plunge into a lagoon-like pool, unwind with a massage, or tuck into a candle-lit dinner for two by the sea. If that’s not enough, a long list of room types makes it easy to add a bit of extra sparkle, with mountain views, sea views and whirlpool baths up for grabs for a little extra.

Equally, if you love to explore, this hotel’s Paphos postcode means it’s well-placed for exploring Cyprus’ colourful past. Weave your way around Ancient Greek columns and admire pretty frescoes at the UNESCO-acclaimed Tombs of the Kings. Or, take a daytrip to Nicosia, to learn all about the capital’s turbulent history.

4. WHAT IF I'M NOT A HISTORY BUFF?

There’s plenty more besides time-frozen ruins. Get competitive as you and your partner work your way around an 18-hole mini-golf course, sample a paddle of craft ales at Aphrodite’s Rock Brewery, or hire bikes and get off the beaten path. The possibilities are endless.

5. TUI BLUE ATLANTICA SEA BREEZE

If you’re a couple that’s looking for some quality downtime, but you’re equally adventurous, TUI BLUE Atlantica Sea Breeze is the perfect choice. The vibe’s a little livelier, here. It’s located in up-and-coming Protaras, where you’ll find plenty of trendy bars and restaurants. In the evenings, there’s live music a couple of times a week, while a cocktail bar looks after those after-dark daiquiris. If you’re itching to get involved with sports and activities, there are things like scuba diving, aqua aerobics and water volleyball to have a go at. And, if that’s not enough, why not have a go playing James Bond, with an under-water scooter experience?
