Planning a villa getaway to Cyprus? With its sun-soaked coastline, picturesque villages, and laid-back Mediterranean charm, Cyprus is ideal for a relaxing villa stay. To help you prepare, we’ve created the ultimate packing checklist—filled with practical tips and local advice to ensure a smooth, enjoyable trip.

1. Must-Have Travel Documents

  • Passport & ID: Double-check that your passport is valid, and carry a photocopy of your ID for backup.
  • Travel Insurance: Pack a copy of your policy—better safe than sorry.
  • Booking Details: Print or save all villa reservation info and communications from The Villa Group.
  • Driving Licence: Needed if you’re renting a car or have car hire arranged through The Villa Group.
  • Currency: Cyprus uses the Euro. Bring a mix of cards and some cash for convenience.

2. Clothing: Pack for the Mediterranean Climate

  • Lightweight summer clothes: think shorts, tees, and sundresses
  • 2–3 sets of swimwear for beach and pool days
