Discover a unique luxury hideaway on the south west coast of Cyprus. The five star Columbia Beach Resort is one of the most exclusive hotels on the island set on a glorious unspoiled beach in Pissouri Bay surrounded by rugged cliffs and acres of vineyards in the valleys behind.
Inspired by local Cypriot villages, this distinctive hotel is designed so that old and new blend together, featuring low rise buildings in local stone and reclaimed terracotta tiles and painted shutters on the windows.
The atmosphere is calm, luxurious, away from every day life. This all suite hotel offers cool marble floors and furnishings in natural colours in harmony with the landscape. Some suites have their own plunge pools, all boast the latest technology. Spacious bathrooms have double sinks, enormous baths and separate showers. This is the ultimate in discreet opulence.
The heart of the hotel is the 80m lagoon style pool which flows from the highly-regarded Columbia Spa out towards the sea, where there is space to relax in the gardens or on the beach, where the waters are so clean that turtles breed nearby.
Relax or be energised in the Spa where you will find Daniele De Winter products, Molton Brown Spa Range and Phytomer treatments. Here you could try yoga or pilates or, for a more active break, there are squash courts and a flood-lit tennis court, a first class gym and an aerobics hall with regular workout sessions. A great range of water-sports is available in the bay including kite-surfing and sailing, or maybe try a round of golf at one of three championship courses nearby.
End the day with the Cyprus meze in the Resort’s Apollo Taverna and a drink at sundown at the traditional Ouzeri overlooking the sea. The Dionysos restaurant is well-known across Cyprus for international fine dining in a lavish setting - complete with superb five star service. Then sleep peacefully with nothing but the sound of the sea to soothe and revive you for another day in a little bit of paradise. |
