As most of you know, I am a proud Greek Cypriot, so every year I head back for the summer to spend it with my big fat greek family. My parents have a wonderful place in Larnaca that we stay in, and of course take all the kids with us. Although we have been going every year, since for ever, we still always find something new to do and discover. I wanted to share with you guys some of my favourite places to go and some must see spots.
Mingle Cafe
This fantastic brunch spot can be found down the back streets of Larnaca near the old town. If you are staying in the area be sure to pop down for some poached eggs and their delicious pancakes. It’s also a rather instagramable spot (thank me later).
Oinou Strata Luxury Suites & Wine Bar
A beautiful boutique hotel, in the mountains near Limassol. The suites are so well thought out, and overall a gorgeous place to stay. They have a wonderful little courtyard, that can keep you cool in the hot Cypriot sun. They also have a fantastic menu full of delicious foods & wines.
Old Town Larnaca
Larnaca old town has so many fantastic little spots, a bakery full of fresh delicious greek pastries, amazing art galleries, trendy bars with cocktails & music. It has it all, you can see everywhere I went to on my Cyprus stories on Instagram too.
Askas
A small relaxing village in the mountain district of Nicosia, a perfect break away from the busy coastline.
Family Time
Of course while I’m in Cyprus I love to spend as much time as possible with my family, catching up with cousins and getting all the kids together.
Sirena Bay
This bay is a fantastic find, a scenic bay with crystal clear waters and a beautiful view. Close to the town of Protatras, this is a must see spot. Another one of those must visit Insta places, it will definitely not disappoint.
Limassol
During some of our stay in Cyprus we always drive down to Limassol to spend a few nights there and catch up with friends. It’s always nice to have a change of scenery and explore another part of Cyprus. We normally stay in the Four Seasons Hotel, which is always a wonderful time.
