We love the design of this home, from the open-plan living space to the bedrooms flooded with natural light. It’s the perfect place to make the most of the warm Cyprus sunshine, whether you’re doing laps in the swimming pool or tucking into big family lunches at the alfresco dining table. There’s plenty of space to socialise indoors too, from gathering around the breakfast bar to getting comfy on the sofa with a glass of wine. You may be tempted to stay put, but if you fancy doing some sightseeing, then you’ll find Protaras just a five-minute stroll away. The town has plenty of restaurants and shops to keep you entertained, while the famous Fig Tree Bay is the best spot for a beach day.

Within walking distance from Protaras and the beach, this villa is the ideal choice for large families or groups of friends who want to be at the heart of the action. But when you’re not splashing about in the waves or visiting the town’s ancient churches, the home is a lovely place to enjoy some downtime. Surrounded by greenery, the private pool is a great spot to cool down and relax with friends. Those who want to top up their tan can take their pick from the many loungers and deck chairs, while those who prefer to stay in the shade can unwind on the sofas. Meanwhile, keen chefs can whip up delicious meals in the well-equipped kitchen – it has sliding doors which open out to the back garden, so whoever’s on meal duty doesn’t have to feel left out.

This four-bedroom home is one of our favourite luxury holiday villas in Protaras. Its sun-kissed outdoor space is ideal for unwinding as the turquoise pool beckons you in for a dip when it gets too warm. There’s also an outdoor seating area in the shade, perfect for laying back with a book or a little siesta. You’ll want to keep the sliding doors open at all times to let a cool breeze in while you’re cooking or gathering around the television. The open-plan living space is the heart of the home, and we love the addition of natural materials, from the bamboo seats at the breakfast bar to the straw mat and rattan lampshades. The home has its own sea-view rooftop terrace with a dining table and mini kitchen.

Those looking for luxury holiday villas in Protaras for large groups will want to head straight for this seven-bedroom home. Overlooking Cape Greco National Park, you’ll find a whole range of outdoor adventures right on your doorstep, whether that’s hiking, cycling or exploring sea caves. After an invigorating day out in nature, come home to this luxurious villa, where you can unwind in the infinity pool that looks out to sea. The spacious deck is perfect for barbecues and alfresco dinners, while the indoor lounge is a great spot for a nightcap and a bit of television before bed. The bedrooms are bright and calming, most featuring floor-to-ceiling windows to let the natural light in. Some even have balconies with sea views, so you may want to place dibs on these ones.

When it comes to family holidays, it doesn’t get better than this home. With four bedrooms (including a room with a bunk bed and a dedicated children’s area), there’s more than enough space for the whole family to spread out. We love the breezy kitchen and living area, where you can cook together and play board games around the fireplace. The folding doors bring the outside in, so you can keep an eye on the kids while they play outside. Speaking of, the garden is the home’s real highlight. The sprawling lawn is a peaceful oasis enclosed by swaying palms and greenery, with plenty of spots for sunbathing, barbecues, or quiet moments away from the group. Not only is there enough room for everyone in the pool, but kids will also love playing on the trampoline.

The Garden in Blue

This modern, white-washed villa is a great choice for a small family or two couples looking for a luxury holiday villa in Protaras. The highlight of the home is its sunny outdoor space where you can swim, sunbathe, have barbecues and enjoy meals. Slide open the glass doors and the space is extended inwards, where a sleek kitchen and roomy lounge are decked out in contemporary furnishings. The location is hard to beat, as you’re just a five-minute walk from the nearest beach. The centre of Protaras is also just a short walk away, where you can pick up souvenirs and try local cuisine. At sunset, head back home and shake up some cocktails before heading upstairs to the rooftop terrace. You may be on Cyprus’s east coast, but it’s still a great spot to admire the sky turning pink and orange over the horizon.

This five-bedroom home certainly stands out on our list of luxury holiday villas in Protaras. We love the eye-catching exterior with its cool concrete walls and characterful arched windows. The garden offers a private space to soak up the sun, whether you’re tanning on the loungers, doing laps in the pool or relaxing your muscles in the whirlpool. The interior is no less impressive, with a spacious open-plan living area and high beamed ceilings. It’s the ideal place to socialise, where your loved ones can get cosy on the L-shaped sofa, entertain on the piano and prepare tasty dishes in the high-spec kitchen with its sleek countertops and chic lighting. We recommend making the most of your seaside location by having your meals outside on the balcony – with such beautiful sea views, how can you resist?

‘Unique’ is the first word that popped into our minds when we saw this property. Its one-of-a-kind design makes it stand out from the rest of our list of luxury holiday villas in Protaras, perfect if you’re looking for somewhere special to stay. Set on a hillside above the town, this contemporary home features a large, open-plan kitchen and living area with plenty of windows, so you can maximise the sea views wherever you are. The space leads out onto a covered outdoor area where you can tuck into meals or catch up with friends on the sofa – we love the absence of walls out here that keep things cool and breezy. There’s plenty to do at home that you won’t even need to go out – get competitive with a game of pool, table football or ping pong, dine alfresco on delicious feasts or swim to your heart’s content in the private pool. When the sun gets low in the sky, head up to the rooftop terrace for a sundowner, ready to do it all again the next day.

With its magnificent sea views, you’ll be hard-pressed to find a home with a better location than this one. The sandy shores of Mimosa Beach and Konnos Bay are right on your doorstep, so you’re never too far from a fun day out at the beach. If you choose to relax at home instead, make the most of the swimming pool and the loungers. There’s even an alfresco dining area so you can enjoy long and lazy lunches while looking out to sea. There are three bedrooms to choose from, but if you’re lucky enough to bag the main bedroom, you can wake up each morning and step out onto your private balcony and breathe in the fresh sea breeze. We can’t think of a better way to start the day.
