Beachfront gem near lively Protaras
With its whitewashed façade and glass-paneled balconies, the Vrissaki Beach Hotel has a stylish, contemporary edge. The property’s setting is also pretty spectacular – right on the beachfront on the outskirts of Protaras, so expect direct access to the golden sands and gorgeous views of the Mediterranean Sea.
The hotel pool is within spitting distance of the ocean, so it’s easy to mix up beach and hotel time. Only a grassy lawn separates the two, and there are plenty of loungers and parasols freckled here and on the surrounding sun terrace. Cold drinks are within arm’s reach at all times, thanks to a couple of bars positioned close by.
Days here are centred on relaxing, but entertainment is in full swing after dark. Live music acts and dazzling shows are on the cards in the summer, and low-key cocktails are just as easy to come by. If you fancy getting out to the nightspots in town, you’re just a few minutes’ walk away.
Come mealtimes, there are two restaurants to feast in. Both are buffet affairs with show cooking and a huge variety of international dishes. One’s indoors, the other has an al fresco setting and a front-row view of the ocean.

Ayia Napa’s quieter neighbour is still no slouch in the nightlife department, while encompassing a huge array of beach and city activities for holidaymakers of all ages. Protaras holidays include museums, monuments and excellent local and international restaurants to explore, and that’s before you’ve even got to the seaside. The town’s small size works to its advantage, meaning that it’s easy to negotiate and find everything you need, and pretty much everywhere is within easy walking distance of the beach.
