Property in Larnaca: features of the region

The city of Larnaca is deservedly considered one of the best resorts in Cyprus. It delights with well-kept beaches, clear Mediterranean coastal waters, and ancient history in every stone.

It is the third largest city on the island, located between the three «capitals» — Limassol, Nicosia, and Ayia Napa. It is also the oldest city in Cyprus and one of the oldest continuously inhabited areas in the world. Another essential feature is Larnaca Airport, which makes the region considered the air gateway of the country and receives tourists from all over the world.

The resort is one of the quietest and calmest in Cyprus. Great for holidays with children, retirees, and those who want to enjoy a relaxing beach holiday without the intrusion of loud music and expressive young people.

Suppose you want to buy property in Cyprus. In that case, Larnaca can be the outlet that pleases you with long summers with plenty of sun, quiet relaxation on vacation, constant passive income from rent, and a mild warm climate in winter, if you choose to spend the winter time here.


Features of the city of Larnaca

The resort is mild and smooth but rapidly developing and striving for advanced infrastructure. Many beaches have been awarded the «Blue Flag». This award is given only to the best European beaches, praised for the purity of sand, water transparency, environmental friendliness, tourist infrastructure, gentle access, and safety for adults and children.

Larnaca is the largest transportation hub on the island. In addition to the airport, a large port can accommodate up to 400 ships of up to 40 meters in length. However, the city authorities do not stop there and are reconstructing the port, increasing its capacity, and introducing high technology to attract even more tourists and investors over time.

In addition to the port, a new marina is also under construction, which, according to the developers' plans, promises to be fantastic. Because of the active renovation of the coastal infrastructure zone, the activity of residential and commercial real estate developers has increased. New complexes of apartments and premium-class villas are erected, the price rises and new investors are attracted. In a few years, real estate in Larnaca will be at the top of the rankings and will be extremely popular, so do not miss the opportunity to buy an apartment in Cyprus in Larnaca in the boil area while its price is not so high.

Another feature is the location of the city of Larnaca. The site is very convenient, as it takes 30-45 minutes to get to Limassol, the capital of Nicosia, or the resort of Ayia Napa. Traffic on the highway is not heavy, traffic is low, and the roads of Cyprus are recognized as some of the best in Europe. So there is nothing to stop you from moving between neighboring cities if, for example, you live in Larnaca and work in Limassol or if you have an appointment in Nicosia.

It is also worth mentioning the Old Town of Larnaca. The modern resort stands on the ancient city of Kition, which existed more than 6 thousand years ago. Archaeological curiosities, imperishable monasteries and churches, ancient sculptures, medieval castles, and excavations of ancient settlements are concentrated within the city. The design combines modern new buildings and millennia-old structures, creating a unique flavor of Larnaca.

Life here is interesting. It's measured, relaxed, but curious. And the prices, by the way, are lower than in Nicosia or Limassol.

Low prices and the high level of first-class resorts significantly increase the demand for long-term apartments for rent in Larnaca. Apartments for rent are in need even in winter because many retirees from Europe come to spend the winter in warm Cyprus.

Larnaca is quiet in winter. Tourist traffic drops to almost zero. Winter lasts from November to April, but this does not mean the onset of cold weather. The temperature during the day rarely drops below 16°C. The weather is mild, humid and warm, but the sea for swimming is quite remarkable. Nevertheless, it is enjoyable to spend the winter here, because it's always very sunny.

So if you buy property in Cyprus in Larnaca, you can rent it in the summer season, receiving an excellent monthly passive income, and in winter, live in your apartment or villa, enjoying the peace.
