Location
Vrissiana Beach Hotel occupies a standout spot right on the sands in the centre of Protaras. The seafront promenade runs directly in front of the hotel, so you’re seconds from the calm, shallow waters that make this stretch of coast so popular.
Step out the back and you’re onto Protaras’ main strip, lined with bars, cafés, ice-cream parlours and shops. Ayia Napa’s livelier nightlife and harbour are an easy taxi ride away, while coastal paths and viewpoints like Profitis Ilias Church tempt you away from the sunlounger for a bit of exploring.
