In addition to possessing its own charms, Limassol is a great base from which to explore the rest of the island. Visit the ancient Curium Amphitheatre, explore the village wine trails or stop at one of the ten Byzantine churches on the Unesco World Heritage list. Discover the traditional village of Omodhos or picnic at the Venetian bridge of Tsielefos, all in under an hour’s drive from Limassol.

In the evening, take a stroll along the seafront promenade which connects the Crowne Plaza to the Limassol Marina. Watch out for sculptures by renowned artists in the «Prokymea Park», enjoy stunning sea views from the jetties and have a great meal at one of the eateries in the Old Port or Marina. Before you go, grab an ice-cream from one of the parlours and try local flavours like rose and mastic.

Don't Go Home Without

Don't go home without sampling as much local cuisine as you can! Two great beachfront tavernas serving fish meze are located a stone’s throw from the hotel. At the Crowne Plaza our GO LOCAL options include eating «souvlaki» at Lime Beach Bar and trying our weekly Cyprus Delights dinner buffet round the pool throughout the summer. If you have a sweet tooth, try Chef Z's delicious «mahalepi».
