Long Beach Resort Hotel

Famagusta, North Cyprus

Superb Sandy Beach on Famagusta Bay

Locals and visitors agree that the Long Beach Resort beach is one of the best in North Cyprus. Set in the sweeping curve of Salamis Bay, the sands gently slope into the warm waters of the Mediterranean Sea, making a perfect place for paddling, swimming, or just lazing on the sands. Here, there's nothing to spoil the view over the waves, no noisy beach bars or extensive hotel developments, so you can simply enjoy a beach holiday in peace and quiet.

Safe Swimming Pools and Sun Terraces

At the Long Beach Resort, you are never far from a cooling dip. Soak up the sun on the poolside terraces, then take a dip in the hotel swimming pool, with its separate children's section. The pool is right next to the beach, so if you like sand but not waves, you can enjoy the best of pool and beach within just yards of each other. There's a poolside bar area and beach bar too, so you're never far from a cool drink or a snack.

Buffet Breakfasts and Dinners

With both breakfast and dinner served as an open buffet, you and the family can choose your favourites from the Cypriot and international dishes offered. If you prefer to eat out some nights, there is a wide variety of restaurants, cafes and bars in nearby Famagusta, famous for its huge defensive walls. 

A Great Location for a Family Beach Holiday

Kids will love the Long Beach Resort, where you can take a stroll from your villa to sea to pool. 

Much of the appeal of the Long Beach Resort is the quiet and relaxing atmosphere, and this extends into the evenings as well. Most families enjoy strolling along the new seafront promenade where children can play on the well-equipped play area.

Next door to the resort is a protected area of beach where sea turtles lay their eggs, so during the season they can watch the eggs being buried by the mother turtle, or the tiny hatchlings scrabble down to the sea on organised turtle watching sessions.

Take a 5 minute taxi ride into the fishing port of Bogaz, with its fish restaurants, and bars.

Just down the road is the site of ancient Salamis, once a mighty Roman port and now a perfect place for a day out exploring ancient gymnasiums, temples and an irresistible attraction for kids, genuine Roman toilets! There's also a cafe and a terrific little beach where you can swim over the remains of the ancient harbour walls. Hire a car and check out the wild landscape and wild donkeys on the Karpaz Peninsula, to discover a part of North Cyprus most tourists never even glimpse. 

Fly into North or South Cyprus

At the Long Beach Resort, you can choose between North Cyprus flights into Ercan International Airport or direct flights to Larnaca in south Cyprus. Transfer times to Larnaca are around 1hr 10 mins and do involve a border crossing, whereas Ercan is just 55 minutes transfer with no potential border delays, but a longer flight time overall.
