Kyrenia, North Cyprus

Elegant Hotel Rooms with Extensive Views

The 16 hotel rooms at the Bellapais Monastery Village are tastefully decorated with local wood and gold-coloured furnishing fabrics.

You'll also find an en-suite bathroom with WC and shower, satellite tv, tea and coffee making facilities, mini bar, and a small in-room safe. 

Atmospheric Dining under the Stars

Dining at the Bellapais Monastery Village is a delight, with wooden tables and comfortable rattan chairs set out on the top terrace so that every table can enjoy cooling breezes and 180 degree views of mountain and sea. Delicious open buffet or the choice of A la carte The whole hotel is bathed in the gentle glow of lights, perfectly complimenting the twinkle of stars above and the shimmering lights of Kyrenia below. 

The main restaurant inside has traditional style windows and tiled floor giving it a truly Cypriot feel not often found in 4 star North Cyprus holiday hotels.  There is a weekly Kleftiko (slow roast lamb) evening during summer months and yes, the staff will get everyone up and dancing!

A Pool with a View

Or, more accurately, two pools with a view and a half! The square pool offers the chance to stretch out and swim in the Cyprus sunshine, whilst the shallower round pool is ideal for a cooling dip and chat with new-found friends. Thanks to the hotel's no children policy, you can enjoy the peace and quiet on a comfortable sun lounger, drink in hand from the pool bar, all day long. If you like a more lively atmosphere, (and more kids around) all guests are welcome to use the facilities at the Bellapais Monastery Village's sister hotel Oscar Resort down in Kyrenia. 

Indoor Swimming Pool and Spa Area

For winter sun holidays in Cyprus, the hotel also has a spa-style inside swimming pool with comfortable double day beds, a sauna, a steam room and exercise bikes for the energetic! Massages can also be arranged - just ask at reception. 

Peaceful, Unhurried Atmosphere with Unobtrusive Service

The Bellapais Monastery Village staff are experts at making you feel at home, and anticipating your requirements, be it a drink by the pool, a lunchtime snack, a book from the lobby library, or another cushion on your sun bed on the top terrace.

Walking Distance of Bellapais and the Mountains

Bellapais village is dominated by the stunning ruins of its ancient abbey, perched high on the mountainside. The village is a delightful mix of traditional restaurants, cafes and shops, with little streets winding into the mountains, all within a 20 minute of the Bellapais Monastery Village uphill . Walkers will love the location too, with easy access to mountain trails to enjoy spring flowers and cool breezes in the summer. 

Just 2kms to Kyrenia

The pretty harbour and mighty castle of Kyrenia are just 3kms downhill, perfect for a day out exploring the twisting medieval streets or enjoying lunch by the sea. A courtesy bus runs daily during the summer season from the hotel to Kyrenia or hire a car and explore more of North Cyprus.

Quick and easy Transfers from Ercan Airport

Thanks to its position above Kyrenia rather than the far side of it, transfers from Ercan International Airport to the Bellapais Monastery Village take just 30 minutes. So, with a flight to North Cyprus, you could go from plane steps to poolside in under an hour!
