Minthis Golf Club offers a wonderfully peaceful round in the hills above Paphos, surrounded by vineyards, orchards, olive groves and far-reaching views towards the Troodos Mountains. Originally designed by Donald Steel in 1994, the course was later extensively renovated by Mackenzie & Ebert, reopening following a major €5 million upgrade that included redesigned holes and larger, USGA-specification greens. Today, the 18-hole, par-72 layout measures 5,902 metres and blends naturally into its elevated Cypriot landscape. The opening nine winds around a 12th-century monastery, with tree-lined fairways and natural changes in elevation placing more emphasis on accuracy and positioning than outright length. The back nine introduces some of Minthis’ most memorable challenges. The par-five 10th begins with a dramatic drive across a deep valley, while the short par-four 14th offers genuine risk and reward for golfers tempted to attack the green from the tee. The undisputed signature hole is the par-three 15th, played from an elevated tee to the only island green in Cyprus. At around 150 metres, it may not look intimidating on the scorecard, but with water surrounding the putting surface and the possibility of a crosswind, club selection and accuracy are everything. Practice facilities are equally strong, with a TrackMan driving range, putting and chipping greens, a three-hole par-three academy course and PGA professional tuition available. The contemporary clubhouse provides a restaurant, bar, terrace and well-equipped pro shop for before and after the round. Minthis is also an excellent addition to a wider Paphos golf holiday, with Elea Golf Club, Secret Valley and PGA National Cyprus at Aphrodite Hills all within driving distance. Its comparatively tranquil setting, varied design and memorable finishing stretch make it particularly appealing to golfers who enjoy scenic courses where strategy matters as much as distance.

Limassol Greens is one of the newest and most exciting additions to the Cyprus golf holiday scene. Set on the western edge of Limassol, it brings championship golf into a city setting, giving golfers the best of both worlds: a proper resort-style golf experience with beaches, restaurants, marina life and nightlife all close by. The resort describes it as Cyprus’s first championship course within a city, designed by Cabell Robinson. The 18-hole championship course measures around 6,300 metres and sits in a natural Mediterranean landscape, with feature ponds, olive and carob trees, wetlands and views towards the Salt Lake. The design also takes inspiration from the sandy dunes of nearby Lady’s Mile, while holes 5 and 6 run through a natural wetland area, adding real character to the round. For golfers, Limassol Greens offers a modern, strategic test without losing that relaxed Cyprus holiday feel. Generous fairways, Bermuda grass, shaped bunkers and lively greens make it enjoyable for a range of handicaps, while the clubhouse, pro shop, TrackMan range and The Roost Lounge Bar add plenty before and after the round. As part of a Cyprus golf holiday, Limassol Greens pairs well with Paphos-area courses such as Aphrodite Hills, Secret Valley, Eléa and Minthis.

PGA National Cyprus at Aphrodite Hills is one of the headline golf experiences in Cyprus and a superb choice for a Mediterranean golf holiday. Set between Paphos and Limassol, close to the legendary Aphrodite’s Rock, the resort combines championship golf, sea views, luxury accommodation and excellent leisure facilities in one easy stay-and-play setting. The 18-hole course was designed by Cabell Robinson and officially opened in 2002. It is laid out across two plateaux, separated by a dramatic ravine, with indigenous olive and carob trees, lush Bermuda fairways, generous tiered greens and carefully placed bunkers giving the course plenty of visual drama and strategic interest. For golfers, Aphrodite Hills delivers that perfect holiday balance: impressive enough to feel special, but still enjoyable for a range of handicaps. The elevated setting brings outstanding views over the Mediterranean, while the ravine holes add real wow-factor, especially for those who enjoy memorable tee shots and scenic photo moments. Practice facilities, putting greens and short-game areas make it easy to warm up or sharpen your game before the round. As part of a Paphos golf holiday, PGA National Cyprus pairs beautifully with nearby courses such as Secret Valley, Eléa and Minthis, giving golfers a strong multi-course itinerary in a compact area. Add in year-round sunshine, beaches, restaurants and simple UK flight access, and Aphrodite Hills becomes one of Cyprus’s strongest golf holiday bases.

Secret Valley Golf Course is a strong choice for a Cyprus golf holiday, especially for golfers staying in the Paphos region. Set near Kouklia, close to Aphrodite’s Rock, the course sits in a sheltered valley with mature Cypriot vegetation, natural rock formations and views towards the Mediterranean Sea. It is also very convenient for arrivals, with the club noting a drive of around 10 minutes from Paphos International Airport. The course is an 18-hole, par-71 layout, rebuilt and reopened in 2013. It features Bermuda fairways, bentgrass greens and six tee positions, which helps make it playable for different levels of golfer while still offering plenty of challenge. The design involved Golf and Land Design with Tony Jacklin, giving the course a recognised golfing name and a more strategic feel than a simple holiday layout. For holiday golfers, Secret Valley has a lovely balance of scenery and playability. The valley setting gives the round a calm, tucked-away feel, while the changing elevation, sea views, water features and approach angles keep things interesting from tee to green. Practice facilities, PGA tuition and a floodlit 3-hole loop also add useful flexibility for golfers who want to sharpen up or enjoy extra golf in the evening. As part of a Paphos golf break, Secret Valley pairs well with nearby courses such as Aphrodite Hills, Elea Estate and Minthis, while beaches, restaurants, harbour life and year-round sunshine make Cyprus an easy favourite for UK golfers.
