Cyprus FAQs

Cyprus enjoys around 300 days of sunshine each year, making it great golfing destination. We recommend visiting Cyprus between April and May along with September to October when temperatures are still hot but much more bearable for playing golf.

All Inclusive is a great option in Cyprus, the region around Paphos hosts some excellent hotels, including Aphrodite Hills Resort, Olympic Lagoon Resort and Leonardo Plaza Cypria Maris Beach Hotel & Spa.

Buggies are not automatically included with your green fee. The only exception is PGA National Cyprus Golf Course - Aphrodite Hills, where buggies are mandatory and hence included in your green fee. Our sales team at GolfKings will be able to talk you through the buggy booking process.

With excellent golfing conditions and a selection of golf friendly resorts offering attractive stay and play packages, the island offers a wide range of accommodation to suit golfers, from self catered villas at Aphrodite Hills to beachfront all inclusive packages at hotels such as Constantinou Bros Athena Beach Hotel. With golf courses located within 15 minutes of each other, it’s easy to see why Cyprus is such a popular destination for golfing groups.

Yes, these can be arranged and added to your package. Car hire is also a popular option, as driving in Cyprus is just the same as in the UK, giving you the opportunity to explore more of the island.

Cyprus offers excellent value for golf holidays for much of the year, with competitive green fees and accommodation. Travelling in early spring (March) or late autumn (late October to November) typically provides a balance of mild weather and lower costs on green fees, flights and accommodation.

Cyprus has two primary airports on the island. We would recommend flying into Paphos International Airport, as most the island’s premier golf courses are in the Southwest around Paphos. Access is easy and the airport is only a short 20 minute transfer into Paphos.

Flights are included in all GolfKings Cyprus golf holiday packages, with a choice of flexible departures from airports across the UK.

Hotels in Cyprus offer great value with 5 and 7 night golf holiday packages available. However, we recommend a stay of at least 7 nights to fully experience the island’s mixture of championship golf courses, each offering a unique and contrasting layout.

Paphos and the nearby seaside resort of Coral Bay are the focal points for nightlife in the area. Paphos harbour is a great spot for an evening meal, lined with restaurants and bars, while the Paphos bar strip has plenty of options for those looking for something livelier. Coral Bay, just a short drive north, offers a more relaxed beachfront setting - ideal for a quieter evening with the group.

If you are booking as a group of eight or more and prime-time tee times are essential, we recommend booking at least 9 months in advance to secure the most desirable slots at the island’s leading courses. Couples and fourballs can typically book 3 to 6 months ahead. Additionally, many hotels offer early booking discounts, providing further savings for those who plan their golf holiday well in advance.

Within the Paphos area the two golf resorts offering onsite golf courses are Aphrodite Hills, home to the prestigious PGA National Cyprus golf course, and Minthis Resort, which features one of the oldest courses in Cyprus, Minthis Golf Club. Although not technically classed as “onsite”, City of Dreams Mediterranean in Limassol is a short 5 minute shuttle ride away from Limassol Greens golf course.

April, May, September, and October tend to be the most popular months for a golf holiday in Cyprus. During this period, the weather is great for golf, and the golf courses are typically in excellent condition.

Paphos is regarded as the most favourable area for golf holidays in Cyprus. Located just 20 minutes from Paphos International airport, it offers a fantastic blend of great hotels, a lively atmosphere with no shortage of restaurants and bars and proximity to a selection of top quality golf courses, including PGA National Cyprus, Elea Golf Club, and Columbia Secret Valley Golf.

If your priority is the lowest price, late November through to early March is considered the off peak season for golf holidays in Cyprus, when you’ll find more heavily discounted golf holiday packages.

Most of the golf courses in Cyprus are concentrated in the Paphos region, including PGA National Cyprus, Elea Golf Club, Columbia Secret Valley Golf and Minthis Golf Club. Outside the Paphos region, you’ll also find Limassol Greens, offering another excellent option for golfers visiting the island.

Cyprus is an excellent choice for couples seeking a golf holiday, with a good mixture of course layouts, beautiful beaches, incredible local cuisine and scenic coastal towns.

To experience the top courses in Cyprus, we recommend a 7 night stay with 5 rounds of golf. This allows you to enjoy the unique and contrasting layouts of each course, with a couple of days left for downtime.

There is plenty to keep you active away from the golf course, with a wide range of activities including water skiing, scuba diving or rock climbing on the island’s coastline, exploring the UNESCO World Heritage sites in Paphos or visiting traditional Greek restaurants around Paphos harbour. Alternatively, you can stay within the hotel and enjoy the available facilities, with the spa at Minthis Resort being widely considered as the best wellness retreat in Cyprus.
