Luxury Golf Tours Cyprus
Four fine courses within half an hour of each other, a coastline soaked in myth, five star resorts on the golf, and a season that runs almost all year. Cyprus is one of the Mediterranean's most relaxed luxury golf escapes, and the cluster around Paphos makes a polished week effortless to build.

Who this trip suits
A luxury golf tour of Cyprus suits couples and groups who want fine courses without long drives, paired with five star comfort and the warmth of the eastern Mediterranean. The golf is concentrated around Paphos, where four very good courses sit within a short transfer of one another, so you can play a different layout each day and still spend the afternoons by the pool, in the spa or at dinner. It is golf at a civilized pace, on well conditioned courses, in a place that knows how to look after a visitor.
It works equally for a discerning buddies group, a couple combining golf with a beach holiday, or a small society wanting an upscale week with everything arranged. The flagship resort, Aphrodite Hills, now PGA National Cyprus, puts the course, the hotel, the villas and the spa in one place, while the Paphos coast adds high end beach resorts within easy reach of all four courses. Add private transfers, a buggy on every round and a curated dining list, and the week runs itself.
The courses to build it around
Aphrodite Hills, PGA National
The flagship par 71 above the sea, its signature 7th played across a deep ravine. A polished resort course with the hotel, villas and spa on site, the natural base for a luxury Cyprus week.
Minthis
A Donald Steel design from 1994, renovated by Mackenzie and Ebert, set at around 550 metres in the hills above Paphos. Cooler air, sweeping views and a serene, almost retreat like setting around a medieval monastery.
Elea Estate
A Sir Nick Faldo design with generous fairways, clever bunkering and undulating greens, threading through olive groves with views to the coast. A relaxed, enjoyable round and a strong addition to the rota.
Secret Valley
A par 71 winding through dramatic rock formations near Aphrodite Hills, narrow and strategic, demanding precision off the tee. A characterful contrast and only a few minutes from the main resort.
Course facts verified June 2026 from the clubs and recognized golf sources. Aphrodite Hills, Elea Estate and Secret Valley are par 71 and Minthis is par 72; Minthis was designed by Donald Steel in 1994 and renovated by Mackenzie and Ebert, and Elea Estate is a Sir Nick Faldo design. Access, conditioning and green fees change, so always confirm with each club before booking.

Cyprus luxury golf questions
Which are the best golf courses in Cyprus?
The four leading courses cluster around Paphos in the southwest. Aphrodite Hills, now PGA National Cyprus, is the flagship resort course, a par 71 with a signature 7th over a deep ravine. Minthis, a Donald Steel design from 1994 renovated by Mackenzie and Ebert, sits at altitude with sweeping views. Elea Estate is a Sir Nick Faldo design, and Secret Valley winds through dramatic rock formations. All four are within a short drive of one another, which is what makes Cyprus such an easy luxury tour.
How much does a luxury golf tour of Cyprus cost?
Cyprus green fees run roughly 90 to 160 euro per round in the 2026 season, with buggies often included at the resort courses. A luxury week with several rounds, a five star Paphos resort, private transfers and fine dining typically lands from the mid thousands per head upward depending on hotel and group size. Figures are indicative for 2026; always confirm directly before booking.
When is the best time for a golf trip to Cyprus?
Spring and autumn, March to May and September to November, give the warmest, most comfortable golfing weather. Cyprus is a genuine winter golf destination too, milder than most of Europe, so December to February is popular for escaping the cold. High summer is hot, so book early morning tee times if you travel in July or August.
Where do you stay on a luxury golf trip to Cyprus?
Most luxury golfers base themselves at Aphrodite Hills, a five star resort with the course, hotel, villas and spa on site, or at one of the high end beach resorts along the Paphos coast. Staying on or near the golf keeps the tee times easy and the days relaxed, with the other three courses all a short private transfer away. We match the resort to the group and the budget.
