Winter in Cyprus has its own festive rhythm: a coastal walk and a Christmas market by day, dinner with live music in the evening. For the 2026/2027 season, two hotels offer different ways to spend these weeks: Cap St Georges Hotel & Resort in Peyia and Parklane, a Luxury Collection Resort & Spa, Limassol.
The first invites you to the square by St George’s Church, where a Christmas Village will open. The second builds its calendar around restaurants, musical evenings and family activities. Choose the mood of your trip: gatherings in a festive square or a different dining experience each evening.

Cap St Georges Hotel & Resort — Peyia, Paphos
At Cap St Georges, the festive season centres on Cap St Georges Square by St George’s Church. Stone architecture, the coast and market stalls create a natural setting for an unhurried day with family or friends.
4 December–3 January: the Christmas Village
The square hosts a market with handmade gifts, local delicacies and hot drinks. The village opens Sunday to Thursday from 14:00 to 18:00 and Friday and Saturday from 14:00 to 22:00.
5 December: the lighting ceremony
On Saturday, 5 December 2026 at 17:30, the square hosts the Christmas lighting ceremony. It provides a precise date for families wishing to experience the beginning of the season together.
Performances and family gatherings
The official announcement includes live performances, DJ sets, children’s activities and shows throughout the season. Individual performance dates have not yet been published, so evening arrangements should be checked for your chosen stay dates.
A quiet interlude at Cleopatra Spa
Complement a festive outing with time at Cleopatra Spa: the hotel’s official website lists massages, facials and body treatments. This is a resort amenity; the materials received do not announce a separate seasonal wellness programme.
Who it suits
Particularly suited to families and couples wishing to combine a coastal stay in the Paphos district with visits to a Christmas market. Details of individual festive dinners and shows should be checked for your travel dates.
Parklane, a Luxury Collection Resort & Spa, Limassol
At Parklane, the festive itinerary takes in several restaurants and The Gallery. Choose a family dinner at Lanes, a more formal evening at NAMMOS Limassol or French-Mediterranean dining at LPM, leaving time between gatherings for children’s activities and the spa.

For family time and time for yourself
Park Kidz. Gingerbread activities, meeting Santa in the lobby, treasure hunts, crafts and family film screenings. Pottery painting and T-shirt design carry an additional charge. Dates for selected activities and age requirements should be checked when booking.
Kalloni Spa. Leave time between celebrations for spa treatments and relaxation; gift vouchers are also available. Choose a particular treatment separately, as the brochure does not include a dedicated seasonal treatment calendar.
Who it suits
Particularly suited to families, groups of friends and couples who appreciate restaurant choice and live music. Dinners at different venues have their own booking and payment arrangements; attendance should be confirmed separately from accommodation.
