Leonardo Crystal Cove Hotel and Spa by the Sea

Between the tranquil spa, the pair of pools, and the dreamy coastal setting, it's not hard to see why Leonardo Crystal Cove Hotel & Spa by the Sea is a popular choice for a trip to Protaras. This adults-only hotel is a real all-rounder, with lots to suit the laid-back crowd as well the lively lot. 

Find yourself a quiet perch and you could easily while away an afternoon with a good book, a cold cocktail, and the salty sea breeze rolling in off the Mediterranean. If you fancy kicking the energy levels up a notch, you can check out the tennis court, gym, or the daily roster of entertainment laid on by the animations team. And what better way to top it off than with an indulgent hour or two spent soaking up in the atmosphere in the spa, which lines up a sauna, hot tub, and a menu of tempting treatments.

Buffet spreads are the order of the day in the main restaurant, which offers a tasty choice of international fare at mealtimes. Then there's an Italian à la carte spot that opens its doors for dinner six nights a week, and a trio of bars to dole out everything from morning coffees to twilight cocktails. And if you're not ready to end the night there? Hop in a taxi and in less than 10 minutes you could be in the heart of Protaras ready for a night on the tiles.
