It’s a superb choice for golf getaways, active families and relaxed longer stays close to Paphos.

Championship fairways dropping towards the sea, terracotta-roofed apartments dotted around manicured gardens and a buzzy central village square: Aphrodite Hills feels more like a private estate than a typical holiday complex.

FAQs
Is Aphrodite Hills only for golfers?
No. While Aphrodite Hills is famous for the PGA National Cyprus course and tailored golf packages, it’s very much a full lifestyle resort. Non‑golfers can enjoy the spa, tennis academy, pool, kids’ clubs, walking routes, village-style dining and day trips to nearby Paphos and the coast.
How do the golf packages at Aphrodite Hills work?
Golf packages are linked to specific stay durations (typically 5, 7, 10 or 14 nights) and include a set number of rounds at Aphrodite Hills and other local courses like Secret Valley and Eléa Estate. Tee times are booked for you after 11:00 based on best availability, usually in four-balls. You’ll need to present a valid handicap certificate on arrival.
Is the accommodation at Aphrodite Hills suitable for families?
Yes. The one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments and junior villas work brilliantly for families, giving you separate bedrooms, living space and kitchens. There’s also a children’s section in the pool, playgrounds, kids’ menus, a crèche and a 3–12 years’ children’s club, so both adults and little ones are well catered for.
Do I need a car if I stay at Aphrodite Hills?
The resort itself is mostly self-contained, with restaurants, bars, shops, golf and spa all on site, so a car isn’t essential if you’re happy to stay within the complex. However, car hire is recommended if you’d like to explore Paphos, nearby beaches, villages and historic sites at your own pace.
