Cavo Zoe Seaside Hotel

This sleek, stylish, nature-inspired hotel on Cyprus’ east coast is ideally suited to couples, friends and solo travellers alike – a place that’s designed for guests to relax, reset and recharge in peaceful surroundings. 

Without doubt, the star of the show here is the three-tier, waterfall-effect infinity pool, flanked by beautifully landscaped gardens and spacious terraces where you can unwind and soak up the sunshine with your favourite cocktail in-hand. The beach is also just a short stroll away, and you may also be tempted to check out the sauna and the hammam (free to use once per week when booked at the spa reception). 

The buffet breakfast at Dolce restaurant is a treat to wake up to in the mornings, with all kinds of fresh and local produce on offer, while the lunch and dinner buffets keep to a consistent theme, celebrating seasonal, ethically sourced Cypriot produce. The poolside bar, meanwhile, doubles up as an elegant à la carte dining venue in the evenings, serving sophisticated Mediterranean dishes and fine wines, accompanied by gorgeous sea views. 

All the rooms are in keeping with the same earthy, chic aesthetic as the rest of the hotel, and each comes with air conditioning, a private balcony or terrace, and tea and coffee making facilities.

Keen to see a little more of the surrounding area? The lively town of Protaras and the beautiful beach of Fig Tree Bay are a 25-minute walk or a five-minute taxi ride away, while the renowned nightlife of Ayia Napa is also within easy reach – around a 10-minute journey by taxi.
