Cyprus is a small country, rich in beautiful locations and a variety of vacation options. Nevertheless, visitors prefer to stay close to the sea—and it’s easy to see why. The Cypriot coastline is incredibly picturesque, and its main “jewel” is the stunning beaches, perfect for relaxing almost any time of year.
Renting a luxury villa by the sea in Cyprus means securing a slice of paradise for a specific period. And if you find one near the most popular beaches in the quieter areas of Famagusta, you’ll be surprised at how many delightful moments you can enjoy every day.
In this selection, we present two magnificent rental options (including long-term rentals) and list the best beaches along Cyprus’ eastern coast. Luxury, comfort, and panoramic sea views—truly the best Famagusta has to offer its guests.
4-Bedroom Villa in the Center of Ayia Napa, Near Nissi Beach
Nissi Beach is famous across Cyprus, and for good reason. First, the stunning natural beauty: the beach is nestled in a cozy bay, ensuring clean, calm waters. White sand (imported, by the way) blends perfectly with the turquoise water, creating that iconic “perfect vacation” picture. In the off-season, Nissi Beach becomes a favorite spot for those seeking tranquility and scenic views.
During the season, the second reason comes into play—the beach transforms into the site of lively, unforgettable parties held right on the sand. Music plays all night, bars operate at full capacity, and daytime fun includes water skiing and volleyball. Several times a week, Nissi Beach draws huge crowds of young people with its famous foam parties and top DJs.
Note: Nissi Beach is awarded the Blue Flag.
Not far from this “beach of contrasts” is a luxurious villa that can be a cozy home for every guest. Whether you come for summer parties or quiet off-season relaxation, comfort and the luxury lifestyle are guaranteed.
The 4-bedroom villa accommodates a large family or group while maintaining privacy for each guest. The house features two entrances, two living rooms, and four bathrooms, allowing for flexible space arrangements. The master bedroom includes a private jacuzzi. Modern interiors, fully furnished and equipped, panoramic and French windows, and terraces for each bedroom create the atmosphere of paradise by the beautiful sea, perfect for year-round living.
Tip: The villa has space to create a separate room for staff.
With incredible views and excellent weather, you’ll want to spend more time outdoors—and it’s easy to do here. The property is landscaped with greenery, an open terrace with a lounge area, and an infinity pool. Parking is available for two cars.
4-Bedroom Villa in the Paralimni Area, Near Ayia Triada Beach
The easternmost part of the Republic of Cyprus is a very green, cozy, and peaceful area. It is rightly considered a family resort due to its quiet atmosphere and absolutely safe sea. Ayia Triada (Trinity) Beach looks perfect for relaxing alone, with small children, or with elderly relatives. The entry into the crystal-clear water is gradual, the golden sand ensures comfortable movement, and the waves remain calm because the area is well-sheltered by the bay.
Territorially, the beach belongs to Paralimni, but Protaras is just a short distance away. These are two small towns with all necessary infrastructure. There are no loud parties here like in Ayia Napa, but for other types of relaxation, everything you need—and more—is available. Some visitors even prefer to stay for extended periods because the atmosphere is so inviting.
Nearby is a fairly famous chapel, often featured on postcards of Cyprus. Its snow-white walls and bright blue roof are visible from the villa’s windows, which you can rent to fully enjoy the authentic Cypriot experience.
The villa itself is a model of modern design, harmoniously integrated into the natural landscape. It has everything you need to forget about time and simply enjoy the Mediterranean scenery under the warm sun. Each bedroom is equipped with panoramic windows and has its own private bathroom.
The common areas are designed thoughtfully: the open-plan living room occupies a large space and opens through French windows directly to a luxurious pool and relaxation area on the property. On the villa’s third level, there is an open terrace with a jacuzzi, lounge area, and barbecue. The view from the roof is simply breathtaking.
Note: The villa is equipped with an elevator for easy movement between floors.
Just steps from the villa are the beach and a small fishing harbor. Renting such a property gives you the chance to enjoy the calmest luxury vacation on one of the most beautiful Mediterranean coastlines.
