About Protaras

Protaras in Cyprus is one of the most popular resorts on the south-east coast, if not the whole of the island. It is hard to imagine that before the mid-1970’s there were only two hotels in what has since grown into a bustling tourist centre. Situated in some of the region’s most beautiful countryside, it also boasts miles of soft sandy beaches.

Protaras- a bustling and vibrant resort

The main strip or the “D” as it is colloquially known is packed with vibrant bars, restaurants and interesting shops, while traditional and contemporary events are held here throughout the holiday season. These include a free open-air cinema and a diverse range of street-crafts and performers which complement the lively entertainment provided by the plethora of themed bars and street cafes.

An ideal location for Cyprus holiday rentals

One important fact that is understood about Protaras is its high-income potential in respect of rental incomes for holiday villas and apartments. This is one reason why Villas2Let specialises in property rentals in and around the resort and we have a wide portfolio of rental properties available here. Owners of such properties also enjoy the benefits of maximum occupancy and a steady stream of returning clients year upon year.

Protaras – something for everyone

With its beautiful sandy beaches and places of interest, along with its eclectic mix of traditional and international cuisine, Protaras has something to offer all types of self-catering holidaymakers. Water sports, nightlife and an established local bus service continue to draw in countless visitors by day and night.

The recently built boardwalk connects the resort with the proposed site of the new Paralimni Marina and the smaller family resort of Penera, both of which are within comfortable walking distance.

An abundant number of places of interest

While the party capital of Cyprus, Ayia Napa is only a 15 minutes bus ride away, the unspoilt beauty of the Cape Grecko Forest Park is even closer. A number of natural sea caves, a picturesque church, a brand new visitor centre and some of the most breath-taking views on the island are among the sights awaiting visitors wishing to discover more about Protaras.
