Cyprus for a Honeymoon — 7 Most Popular Locations for Couples in 2026

The island of Aphrodite is not a random choice for a honeymoon. Mythology placed the birth of the goddess of love right here, near the Rock of Aphrodite between Paphos and Limassol. But putting mythology aside — Cyprus has real reasons for couples to choose it for celebration: private villas with infinity pools overlooking the sea, fine-dining restaurants with sunsets, quieter corners far from the party crowds of Ayia Napa, and a relatively short flight from Poland (4h).

Below are 7 locations that couples will most likely choose for their honeymoon in 2026 — with specific prices and characteristics for each.

1. Pissouri — a Forgotten Cove for Couples

The cove of Pissouri lies between Limassol and Paphos — and because of that, it is often overlooked by tourists seeking a single "main" center. That's an advantage. The town of Pissouri rises on a cliff above the cove, with white architecture, quiet evenings, and a view of the open sea.

Columbia Beach Resort in Pissouri is one of the highest-rated resorts in Cyprus by honeymooners. Boutique, with a private beach in the cove, apartments with a separate living room and terrace. Architecture in the style of a Cypriot village.

• Suite prices: 300–500 EUR/night (August), 200–320 EUR/night (September)
• Distance from LCA: 1h 20 min by car
• Restaurant: Greek-Mediterranean fine dining, Commandaria wine list

2. Anassa Hotel — the Most Intimate Luxury on the Island

Anassa Hotel near Polis (northwestern Cyprus) is one of the rare cases where luxury is discreet. The hotel is located on the slope of a hill overlooking the sea, with terraced pools descending downwards, a thalasso SPA in cave-like architecture, and a private beach.

Nearby: Akamas Nature Reserve, Baths of Aphrodite — a grotesque legendary grotto with a natural spring where the goddess is said to have bathed.

• Prices: from 450 EUR/night for a junior suite with sea view
• Distance from PFO: 40 min by car
• Recommended activities: boat trip to Blue Lagoon, SUP near Akamas, spa

3. Limassol Marina — Modern Luxury by the Yacht Harbor

Limassol Marina is one of the most modern tourist investments in Cyprus (opened in 2014). Exclusive apartments by the marina pool, restaurants, designer shops, and the possibility of a yacht trip directly from your "backyard."

For couples who like the atmosphere of Mediterranean glamour — evenings by the marina pool, dinners in restaurants with views of the yachts, and access to Limassol's city life.

• Apartment rentals: 250–500 EUR/night
• Restaurants at the marina: Pier One, Zen Japanese — fine dining level
• Spa: several private rooms within a 5-minute walk

4. Coral Bay — Family-Friendly in a Romantic Setting

Coral Bay near Paphos is a popular beach — but for couples seeking a balance between romance and access to infrastructure. Hotels and apartments overlooking the cove, a quiet part of the beach after sunset, several good seafood restaurants.

For couples who don't want complete seclusion, but also don't need the hustle and bustle of the city.

• Apartments 2-person: 120–200 EUR/night (June–September)
• Premium hotel in Coral Bay: Coral Beach Hotel — 4* with a private beach
• Evenings: dinner in Paphos harbor (15 min by car) or by your own pool

5. Protaras — a Quieter Eastern Coast

Protaras is a resort on the eastern side of the island, closer to Ayia Napa, but with a much calmer atmosphere. Coves and inlets with crystal-clear water, hotels with sea views, a less party-like atmosphere than neighboring Ayia Napa.

Fig Tree Bay — one of the most beautiful beaches in Cyprus and Europe according to Blue Flag rankings. Turquoise water, fine sand, a quiet bay ideal for couples.

• 4* Hotels: Capo Bay Hotel, Sunrise Beach Hotel — sea views
• Prices: 130–200 EUR/night (September)
• Romantic plus: sunset cruise from Protaras to Cape Greco: 35–45 EUR/person

6. Troodos — a Mountain Escape

For couples who don't like the seaside standard — the Troodos mountains offer a completely different experience. Traditional stone villas and residences in the villages of Kakopetria, Platres, and Lefkara. Rural quiet, grapevines under pergolas, a fireplace for cooler evenings.

Lefkara Village is a destination in itself: white streets paved with stone, lace-making (lefkaritika) inscribed on the UNESCO list of intangible cultural heritage, taverns with local cuisine.

• Traditional houses for rent: 100–200 EUR/night (for 2 people)
• Summer temperatures in the mountains: 26–30°C vs 38°C on the coast
• Activities: hiking trails, wineries, ceramics in Foini

7. Latchi — a Fisherman's Village at the End of the World

Latchi (Latsi) is a small fisherman's village at the entrance to the Akamas peninsula. Restaurants on the harbor quay, kayaks for hire, boat trip to Blue Lagoon (30 min). Touristically quiet, authentic.

For couples seeking "the real" Cyprus — Latchi offers a glimpse into traditional island life.

• Prices: 100-200 EUR/night
• Distance from Paphos: 45 min by car
