Columbia Beach Resort
OVERVIEW
Overlooking the calm, crystal waters of Pissouri Bay, Columbia Beach Resort is one of Cyprus’ most romantic hideaways, sloping up a hillside lush with verdant orchards and fertile vineyards. Its relaxed Mediterranean style is reflected in whitewashed buildings topped with terracotta tiles, palm fronds, tranquil rooms decorated in shades of cream and blue and colourful décor in the public spaces.
The spa is a notable element, and a reason for which many people return. Hébe Spa is time and again voted Cyprus’ premier spa destination, using Elemis products in a treatment menu that includes an Ambrosia Milk & Honey Body Bliss, a throwback to ancient Greek mythology that is still so resonant across the island.
Though it’s definitely geared up for adults, the resort is absolutely family friendly with an excellent kids club during July and August when families in the know flock to the hotel for rest, relaxation and reconnecting. If your little ones are particularly little the Columbia Beach Resort goes above and beyond to help you reduce your baggage costs (why do small children require so much stuff?) by offering the chance to order baby food and supplies on their website that will be ready and waiting for you on arrival, with plenty of complimentary accessories offered free of charge during your stay.
