Almyra Hotel
cyprus, cyprus · ★★★★★
The Verdict
Worth it for your honeymoon?
Almyra is the design-led sister to the Annabelle — another Thanos Hotels property on the Paphos seafront, but with a deliberately younger, more architectural personality and a strong tilt toward couples (the Kyma adults-only suite zone is the highest couples-percentage of any Cyprus hotel). Originally a 1970s landmark, Almyra was rebuilt in 2003 to a Joëlle Pléot–overseen design with clean lines, raw natural materials (stone, walnut, raw linen), and the kind of Mediterranean-modernist vocabulary that holds up against any Greek-island design property. The Kyma adults-only zone is the honeymoon centre — eight rooftop suites with their own private pool, a separate restaurant (the Notios at the rooftop), and yoga sessions on the rooftop terrace at sunrise. Almyra walks two minutes to the Paphos UNESCO mosaics and the Tombs of the Kings, and shares the Annabelle's gardens via a connecting path. For honeymooners who want design-forward Paphos at a price below Anassa — and with a stronger adults-only programming than the Annabelle — Almyra is the right choice.

Room Recommendation
Which room to book
Kyma Suite Sea View — the rooftop adults-only suite category with private terrace, sea view, and direct access to the Kyma rooftop pool and Notios restaurant. The Kyma Suite Pool View is the value entry at around €450/night. The Kyma category is non-negotiable for honeymooners; the lower-floor Family rooms (no Kyma access) lose the property's signature feature.

Departure
Final breakfast at Mosaics, last beach swim, 15-minute transfer back to PFO. Almyra is one of the easiest checkouts in Cyprus.
Honest Assessment
What to know before you book
Kyma is the honeymoon zone; the main hotel is family-friendly, and the lower-floor non-Kyma rooms include children at the main pool. Book a Kyma category specifically.
The beach in front of the property is small grey-pebble (typical Paphos) — guests use the seawater pool and the beach club for sand. The Akamas at Latchi is the day-trip for proper sand.
Almyra is more design-restrained than the Annabelle's lush garden style — couples wanting tropical-jungle ambience over modernist clean lines should book the sister property Annabelle instead.
