It is said that Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of love, beauty and fertility, emerged from the glistening waves of the Mediterranean Sea and took her first steps on the shores of the island of Cyprus. Her fabled birthplace, Petra tou Romiou is marked by a dramatic formation of rocks, which has been the inspiration for generations of artists and poets the world over. Within sight of this legendary landmark lies the majestic five-star Aphrodite Hills Resort: one of the most magnificent and luxurious residential resorts on the eastern Mediterranean coastline.
Arisen from the foam
Nestled in the undulating coastal landscape and embracing two breathtaking plateaux separated by a deep canyon, it elegantly combines the traditional with the modern, offering residents and visitors an idyllic lifestyle. But what ultimately sets this unique resort apart from any other is its diverse range of facilities. It is unrivalled in its versatility and yet luxury, quality and service are never compromised.
A multi-award-winning establishment, Aphrodite Hills Resort comprises a five-star InterContinental Hotel complete with its own fully equipped business centre with stately conference and banqueting facilities.
Beyond business, there is an 18-hole championship golf course with a golf academy, driving range, clubhouse and shop; a state-of-the-art Greco-Roman retreat spa and fitness centre; world-class tennis and multi-surface courts with an Annabel Croft tennis academy and professional shop; the Pirates Village Kids Club; a charming village square with shops, bars, restaurants and the Byzantine-style St Catherine’s Chapel; two private beach clubs; a horse riding club; nature and bike trails; and luxurious, privately owned residential and rental apartments, townhouses and villas.
