OUR OFFICIAL RECOMMENDATIONS LIST
If you’ve never been to Ayia Napa or the surrounding areas before, we’re here to help with any questions you may have.
Perhaps you’re looking for the best places to stay or things to do? Maybe you’d like a restaurant recommendation or somewhere to hire quad bikes or buggies?
Whatever it is, be sure to check out our popular Official Recommendations below.

With over 25 years experience in Ayia Napa and over 60,000 followers across our socials, we decided to put together this “Official Recommendations” list to help people out as we get so many questions each and every day asking for OUR recommendations.

If a company is on our list, it means that we have PERSONALLY stayed there or used the companies services.
This in turn means YOU have the peace of mind when using their services, that they are safe, reputable and of high quality.

We will only recommend a business we have PERSONALLY used, whether that be a hotel, restaurant, bar or boat business etc.
