The Imperial Island Resort, located just outside Paphos Old Town in Cyprus, has reopened for the summer of 2026 following an extensive refurbishment. Formerly known as the Louis Imperial Beach Hotel, the resort now offers a polished, contemporary environment that blends minimalist design with a tranquil, spa-like atmosphere.
Guests arriving at Paphos International Airport can reach the resort within 20 minutes, making it a convenient destination for those seeking a Mediterranean getaway. The resort occupies a prime stretch of coastline, with landscaped gardens and palm tree-lined pathways connecting the hotel to the seafront.
Accommodations at the resort emphasize understated luxury and relaxation. Rooms feature neutral tones, views of the main pool and the Mediterranean Sea, and marine-inspired touches such as abstract coastal artwork and skincare products from French brand Phytomer. Amenities include coffee machines, stocked minibars, and vanity kits, all contributing to a peaceful retreat for guests.
The resort caters to a wide range of visitors, including families, couples, and groups. Younger guests have access to dedicated kids’ and teens’ clubs, while organized activities are available throughout the week. Recreational facilities include tennis and squash courts, a gym, multiple pools, and a spa area with a relaxation pool, Jacuzzi, and treatment rooms. The spa offers personalized treatments designed to enhance relaxation.
Dining is a significant feature at Imperial Island Resort. The main restaurant provides buffet-style meals for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, with a varied selection of local and international dishes that reflect changing menus throughout the day. Outdoor seating overlooks the main pool, offering an alfresco experience. Staff service is described as attentive yet unobtrusive.
In addition to the buffet, the resort offers specialty restaurants featuring more intimate dining options. The FIKI Japanese Fusion Restaurant presents a menu influenced by Japanese, Thai, and Korean cuisines. Highlights include sushi selections and light desserts such as tonka crème brûlée with coconut foam. Pygmalion, another on-site eatery, serves elevated comfort food, including items like a bacon and avocado burger accompanied by fries and warm cookie dough with vanilla ice cream for dessert.
As part of the all-inclusive package, an extensive range of beverages—including cocktails such as piña coladas, Aperol Spritzes, and Limoncello Spritzes—are available throughout the day and into the evening.
Packages for a seven-night stay in a Superior Sea View Room start at approximately £1,353 per person through easyJet Holidays, including flights, transfers, luggage, and the all-inclusive offering. The resort’s combination of location, amenities, and service aims to provide a refined holiday experience suitable for diverse guest profiles without compromising on sophistication.
