Map & location


Ayia Napa, Cyprus

Grecian Bay Hotel claims one of Ayia Napa’s most coveted spots, right on a Blue Flag beach yet about 1km from the energetic resort centre. The hotel’s gardens and pool terrace gently slope towards the shore, so you can wander from sunbed to sea in a couple of minutes.

Ayia Napa’s harbour, monastery and buzzing bar scene are within easy reach, but the hotel itself feels calm and self-contained – ideal if you like the option of nights out without sacrificing a peaceful base. Nearby Cape Greco National Forest Park adds coastal walking trails, sea caves and viewpoints for easy day trips.

  • Beach beachfront (direct access)
  • Ayia Napa resort centre 1km
  • Ayia Napa harbour 1.2km
  • Approx. transfer time from airport 1 hour 20 minutes from Larnaca (LCA)

Facilities

Pool & outdoors


The heart of the resort is a large, freeform freshwater pool framed by lawns, palm trees and sea views. A shallow children’s section keeps younger guests close by, while the main pool has plenty of space for laps or simply drifting between lounger and water. Sunbeds, parasols and complimentary pool towels are provided, and there are baby-changing facilities near the pool area.

For cooler days or a quieter swim, head to the indoor freshwater pool, located within the health club. It includes a whirlpool area and is usually heated from November to April, making Grecian Bay a solid shoulder-season choice.

Just beyond the gardens you’ll find the hotel’s sandy beachfront – part of one of Ayia Napa’s spotless Blue Flag bays. The water here tends to be clear and gently shelving, great for paddling or longer swims. Local operators along the bay offer typical beach watersports in season (independently run, charges apply).

Spa, sports & wellness


Wellness and activity fans are well catered for:

Health Club & Spa
An air-conditioned gym (approx. 08:00–20:00, min age 18) comes equipped with cardio machines, free weights, fixed strength machines, stretching zones and an aerobics studio. The spa area features a sauna, steam room and whirlpool, plus a menu of massages and beauty treatments (charges apply, spa access and some facilities may have a minimum age, usually 12+).

Sports & Fitness
Stay active with aerobics and aqua aerobics sessions, yoga, squash, table tennis and tennis. Some activities are organised as part of a daytime programme, others are on a pay-to-play basis – ideal if you want to mix beach days with something more energetic.
