Cyprus all-inclusive hotels: a comparison of 5 TUI BLUE hotels for families and couples

Cyprus makes it easy for you. Over 300 days of sunshine a year, turquoise waters lapping gently sloping sandy beaches, short distances between coast and ancient ruins – and in the evening you’re sitting down to meze with a view of the sea. No wonder the island ranks so highly with all-inclusive holidaymakers.

The only question – and probably what brought you here – is: Which hotel should it be? We’re introducing you to 5 all-inclusive hotels – three are geared towards families, two are adults only from 16 years. Four are located in the east around Ayia Napa and Protaras, one on the west coast near Paphos.

The difference isn’t in the stars, but in the details: how many restaurants and bars there are, how often you can dine à la carte, and whether you can step straight from your room into the pool in the morning. That’s exactly what you’ll find here – property by property, with all the numbers for comparison.

What’s included with All Inclusive in Cyprus?

With TUI BLUE All Inclusive, meals, drinks, snacks between meals, and the sports and entertainment programme are all included in your holiday price. In the main restaurants you’ll find buffets with live cooking stations, rotating themed evenings and a permanent selection of vegetarian, vegan and low-carb dishes. Cypriot classics feature on the buffet alongside international favourites – our kitchen teams cook with local, seasonal ingredients. For gluten intolerance, allergies and other dietary requirements, please enquire beforehand – the hotels are happy to accommodate you when they know in advance.

On top of this comes the BLUEf!t® programme with fitness, yoga and water sports classes, plus the evening entertainment. One difference worth noting: the à la carte restaurants are included in All Inclusive with varying frequency depending on the property. Exactly how often is detailed for each hotel below.

All information and reservations in the BLUE® App

For all five hotels in Cyprus: The BLUE® App is your digital companion for your entire stay. There you’ll see the menus and details for each restaurant, bar opening times, the daily programme and sports classes – always up to date, without notice boards and without having to ask at reception.

And the most practical part: You reserve your evening at the à la carte restaurant directly through the app. Because places are limited, it’s worth booking before you arrive – then you’ll get your preferred evening. Best to download the app for iOS or Android before you travel, so you’ll have all the information about your hotel stay with you from the start. 📱 Through the pinboard function you can also reach the BLUE® Guides on site if you have questions about the hotel or the area.

Family holidays: Cyprus All Inclusive hotels with children

TUI BLUE Atlantica Aeneas Resort: Nissi Beach on your doorstep

If you’re travelling to Cyprus with children and want the beach within walking distance, the TUI BLUE Atlantica Aeneas Resort is the obvious choice. The five-star resort sits around 2.5 kilometres from the centre of Ayia Napa, and between you and the famous Nissi Beach lies just one road. The public sandy beach is gently sloping and awarded the Blue Flag for its water quality – you couldn’t ask for much better for little water babies.

Culinary-wise, the property is the largest in TUI BLUE’s Cyprus portfolio with four restaurants and eight bars. In the main Lavinia restaurant there’s an all-day buffet with live cooking, a dedicated children’s buffet and a baby corner. Then there’s the Green & Grill with light, freshly prepared cuisine, the Taverna with Cypriot sharing dishes, and the Italian La Cucina Di Napa. And now the part you should know before booking: all restaurants and bars are included in All Inclusive – except La Cucina Di Napa. One dinner at the Green & Grill is included once per stay, an evening at the Taverna once per week. If you want to dine à la carte more often, you’ll get 20 per cent off. Reserve your tables conveniently through the BLUE® App, where you’ll also find all the menus. Packed lunches are included if you order them a day in advance – handy for excursion days.

For rooms you can choose between family suites with two bedrooms, rooms with direct pool access and rooms with private whirlpool. The lagoon-style pool landscape winds through the resort, plus there are water slides and a separate children’s pool. The Kids Club is open six days a week, with supervision in mini and teen clubs by age group. On selected evenings there’s a poolside barbecue, and you can borrow bicycles for exploring the area free of charge. While the children are being looked after, you can relax in the spa or work out in the sports programme.

Ideal for: Families who want beach proximity, great dining choice and a full childcare programme all in one place.

TUI BLUE Atlantica Sungarden Park: from room straight into the pool

The TUI BLUE Atlantica Sungarden Park is the Cyprus property for anyone who wants to step from bed into water in the morning. Swim-up rooms are available here in several categories: as double rooms, as family rooms, as family rooms with bunk beds, and as a variant of two double rooms with connecting door. The terrace leads straight to the pool – a detail that delights children and saves parents the walk.

It’s a ten-minute walk to the nearest sandy bay, about 25 to Nissi Beach. The pool complex with sea views is the heart of the property, plus there’s a separate children’s pool with 30 centimetres of water depth and an outdoor playground. Dining takes place in the main restaurant with buffet for all three meals, in the Italian à la carte restaurant, at the poolside snack bar or at the lobby bar. Dinner in the à la carte restaurant is included once per stay or per week with All Inclusive, from a minimum stay of four nights – reserve through the BLUE® App.

What additionally distinguishes the property: for parents there’s the BLUE Spa and the BLUEf!t® programme, with shows on the programme several evenings a week. Because the hotel is simultaneously quiet and close to the centre, it also works well for couples who want daytime peace and Ayia Napa in the evening.

Ideal for: Families with children who want a swim-up room, and for couples fancying a manageable-sized property.

TUI BLUE Nausicaa Beach: pool views over the Mediterranean and Greek meze

The TUI BLUE Nausicaa Beach scores with a view you won’t forget in a hurry: from the loungers by the pool you look straight out over the Mediterranean. The sandy beach is within walking distance, the property is manageable and intimate with two restaurants and two bars – if you’re not looking for a large resort, this is the place.

Dining takes place in the main restaurant The Restaurant, which serves breakfast, lunch and dinner daily as a buffet with live cooking overlooking the garden – no reservation needed, you simply come when it suits. The cuisine alternates between Mediterranean, Greek, Italian, Mexican, Asian and fish, plus there are regular themed evenings with three-course live cooking buffets, an English breakfast and highchairs for the little ones.

The culinary highlight is the Taverna: an à la carte restaurant with views over the bay, serving Greek cuisine as a four-course menu or three-course dinner with local dishes on five evenings a week. One evening there is included in All Inclusive once per stay – worth reserving in advance through the BLUE® App. During the day, the Pool & Snackbar Theas and The Bar, both with pool views, keep you supplied with soft drinks and local alcoholic beverages, premium cocktails, plus coffee and cake in the afternoon. All Inclusive also includes ice cream, snacks and a dedicated children’s buffet. You’ll find the current menus and opening times anytime in the BLUE® App.

For children there’s supervision by age group, mini disco and mascot parades, plus sports and show programmes in the evening. You can use the time for the spa or a round of BLUEf!t®. Important for planning: the hotel is seasonally open, closing in winter. If your child is neurodivergent: this is the right hotel for you! Find out more about hotels suitable for neurodivergent children here.

Ideal for: Families looking for a smaller property with sea views from the pool and who fancy playing tennis. Top tip for neurodivergent families.

Adults Only: All Inclusive in Cyprus for adults only

TUI BLUE Pioneer Beach: indulgence for two in Paphos

The TUI BLUE Pioneer Beach in Paphos is our adults-only foodie hotel in Cyprus and with 98 per cent recommendation on Holidaycheck (as of September 2026) the highest-rated TUI BLUE hotel on the island. Guests are welcome from 16 years. The property sits right by the sea on a gently sloping sandy bay with a jetty leading into the turquoise water. It’s 2.5 kilometres to the centre of Paphos, about three to the fishing harbour with its tavernas. The bus stop is 100 metres away, from Paphos airport you’ll drive around 40 minutes.

Culinary-wise, the property is the strongest reason to come here. Four restaurants and four bars are open to you. In the main restaurant with terrace there’s a buffet for all three meals with live cooking, Mediterranean, international and local Cypriot cuisine – vegetarian, vegan and low-carb dishes included. What’s special: the three-course à la carte dinner is included with All Inclusive, you simply reserve it in advance through the BLUE® App. The vegetarian, vegan and low-carb menus are also available à la carte with three courses at no extra charge. For gluten intolerance please enquire beforehand! The à la carte restaurant with sea, pool and garden views serves Italian and international cuisine, at lunch and dinner.

For relaxation there are two pools: one outdoors, one covered in the wellness area, heated from November to April. Plus there are whirlpools inside and out, and a spa with massages and treatments. If you’re active, you’ll find water sports, diving, snorkelling and windsurfing right on your doorstep, plus fitness and yoga classes. In the evening there’s live music rather than loud animation. My room tip is the suite with sea view. The entire hotel is barrier-free and naturally there’s WiFi everywhere.

Ideal for: Couples for whom good food and an innovative sports programme are important

TUI BLUE Atlantica Sea Breeze: Cypriot dining and peace in your own bay

The location of the TUI BLUE Atlantica Sea Breeze alone makes it easy to shift down a gear. The adults-only hotel for guests from 16 years sits on its own quiet bay with sandy and rocky beach. Well-tended gardens grow around the large pool, with the Mediterranean glittering beyond. My tip: find yourself a spot with sea views in the afternoon and simply stay a bit longer.

If you fancy music and drinks in the evening, you still don’t have to travel far. The first bars and clubs are about a kilometre away, the larger nightlife area around four kilometres. So you can head out when you feel like it, and return later to a hotel where the night remains pleasantly quiet.

Two restaurants and two bars are perfectly sufficient here, because dining is pleasantly uncomplicated. In the main restaurant The Restaurant you put together your breakfast in the morning and simply come back at lunch or dinner as soon as hunger strikes. You don’t need a reservation. At the live cooking stations you can watch your food being freshly prepared, and themed evenings regularly bring something new to the buffet.

You should reserve one evening for the Culinarium. In the à la carte restaurant you’ll be served a three-course menu with Cypriot dishes. One visit per stay is included in All Inclusive. Book your table beforehand through the BLUE® App. This is especially worthwhile if you fancy dressing up and enjoying the evening at a leisurely pace.

For your first coffee, a pre-dinner drink or the last cocktail of the day you have two options. The Hesperiden Bar has indoor and outdoor areas. At the Neptune Pool Bar you sit right by the water. Both bars serve local and international spirits, cocktails, soft drinks and coffee specialities. Everything is included in All Inclusive. In the afternoon there’s also tea, ice cream, cake and snacks at set times. What’s on offer when and which cocktail is on today’s menu – you’ll see it all in the BLUE® App.

For the daily programme it’s best to decide spontaneously. Perhaps you fancy water volleyball or joining in with the pool quiz. Perhaps later it’ll be a silent disco. And if you don’t feel like any programme today? Then you simply swap the bustle for a massage or beauty treatment in the wellness area.

Even with special dietary requirements your holiday stays relaxed: vegan and lactose-free options are part of the offering. The hotel is also certified to the GSTC standard for sustainability.

Ideal for: Couples who want daytime peace in their own bay, good evening dining and still want nightlife options within reach.
