Lovingly restored roof tiles, graceful arches and shutters on the windows reflect the inn of a traditional Cypriot village. Located in the secluded Bay of Pissouri on the southern coast of Cyprus, this colours of the landscape and the dramatic cliffs that frame this part of the Medi- terranean Sea. Using local stone, wooden features and creative planting, the Beach Resort sits harmoniously in its surroundings, a clever mix of old and new. The low rise Resort follows the natural incline of the landscape so that most suites have a spectacular view. IMMERSE YOURSELF Take a dive into our palm-fringed 80 metre-long lagoon pool. Then swim into the heated indoor pool to the heart of Hébe Spa and relish the exercise, even in winter. Water falls softly from the lagoon pool to a shallow children‘s pool with a pretty terrace area perfect for families. NATURE´S PARADISE Walk in the grounds of the Columbia Beach Resort and enjoy lush gardens and paved paths shaded by bou- gainvillea jasmine and olive trees. The heavenly herbs and citrus trees are also used in the Resort’s kitchens. And the stunning view across the bay to the cliffs of Cape Aspro never fails to take your breath away. The position of the Columbia Beach Resort on a spectacular two kilometre Blue Flag beach and the dense vegetation in the valleys behind the bay is especially magical. Native flora, the flowers and plants that grow in this part of the island, the white cliffs of Cape Aspro to the east of the bay, the vineyards and orchards create a very secluded setting for the Colum- bia Beach Resort.
