Highlights of Cyprus: Explore the Island’s Tranquil Side

Cyprus is one of those destinations that we at Black Tomato believe is the epitome of sun-kissed luxury, and to squeeze as much as possible from this stunning island, we’ve put together a seven-night trip that will open your eyes to all of Cyprus’s secret brilliance. Discover spectacular landscapes and wildlife on private adventure tours, immerse yourself in ancient Hellenic history and culture, and indulge in divine wine and cuisine. Top it all off by staying at Anassa, the chic, stunning bolthole that adds that extra magic to make your trip to Cyprus simply unforgettable.

Spa in style

Arrive in Cyprus and settle into your supreme luxury hotel,  Anassa. Find your picturesque white-washed, marble-floored room with terracotta tiles and views over the azure blue of the Mediterranean, and take your time to settle into the tranquil pace of life. Anassa’s spa can help you find that vacation zen; together with your partner, be pampered with the Double Indulgence massage that will leave your mind and body in soothing harmony.
Revitalized and ready to explore, adventure to the landscapes and wildlife of the Akamas Peninsula. Set off on a jeep tour and discover wild forests and Lara Bay where Karetta and Green turtles nest, and wind down the Avacas Gorge to the soundtrack of tweeting of indigenous birds and festooned by beautiful and rare flowers.

Wildlife, wine and the Goddess of Love

Why not get the wind in your hair on a cycle tour, taking in the Aphrodite baths – Cyprus’s natural pools blessed by the Goddess of Love herself, or for those with a taste for adventure, head high up into the hills and cycle off the beaten track, passing through remote villages and untouched natural surroundings.

After a night of perfect rest at Annassa, fill up on your Cyprus culture by visiting the 12th Century Byzantine Chrysorogiatissa Monastery and also the famous mosaics at the House of Dionysis. Nearby is the fabulous winery in Panagia Village, so make sure to stop off to test out Cyprus’s homegrown grapes. We can even arrange for you to have a day wine-tasting at the Anassa. The hotel’s Sommelier will introduce you to all the different types of Cypriot wine, giving you the best possible insight into the island’s viticulture.

Intrepid Troodos

End your trip with an excursion into the jaw-dropping landscapes of the Troodos Mountains. Driving through unspoilt villages and picturesque Byzantine monasteries on your private tour, you’ll cross stunning river valleys, take in humbling mountain scenery, and see wild mouflon sheep roaming the undulating landscape around the Stavros tis Psokas forestry station. With such spectacular landscapes, wildlife and luxury, Cyprus really is an unforgettable experience.
