Welcome to our Special Offers Summer 2012 brochure, offering very special deals to beautiful
North Cyprus. Cyprus Paradise has been operating holidays to this delightful region
for 19 years. We are delighted to be able to share the benefit of our knowledge and
expertise with you.
Our experience means that we can offer you not only better service but also
better prices. Whether you have travelled with us before, or this is your first
holiday with Cyprus Paradise, you can be sure that your holiday is our priority.
For this special offer programme, we have chosen two very charming and
popular hotels in North Cyprus. Whilst both hotels offer excellent standards
of accommodation and facilities, each has its own charm and appeal. One will
suit those clients looking for the luxury and pampering that only a true 5 star
establishment can provide, whilst the other will suit those looking for a more
informal and homely feel that you can only find in a family-run hotel. Whatever
your choice, we are sure that either one of these offers will tempt you. One attribute
that both offers share is incredible value for money. Where, in this day and age can you
spend a week in a 5 star hotel in the Mediterranean, including flights, transfers, and evening
meals from just £329? North Cyprus…that’s where!!
We only work with those suppliers who, like us, are experts in their field. Our local agency in
Cyprus – TourPlus - has 33 years of experience and our local representatives and guides are
hand-picked from the best in the business. As Cyprus Paradise guests, you will have a 24 hour
TourPlus Holiday Line at your disposal, so that, should the need arise, you can contact us at any
time during your holiday.
We hope you enjoy browsing through the special offers in this brochure. Both of these offers can
be booked online at www.cyprusparadise.com or by calling the number shown below.
If you wish to make a reservation or require further information please call us on 020 8343 8888

THERE IS A SECRET ISLAND IN THE HEART OF THE MEDITERRANEAN…
“…a hidden jewel in the Levant – with golden beaches, picture-
postcard villages and brilliant weather”. That is how Northern Cyprus
has been described in the UK press, and knowing the country like we
do, it is understandable that the hardened ‘hacks’ of Fleet Street are
inspired to such prose.
5
Even in this age of mass-tourism, Northern Cyprus remains virtually undiscovered and
gloriously under-populated. Considered to be the most beautiful part of the island, the
north receives less than one tenth of the visitors that swarm to the better known Cypriot re-
sorts of Paphos, Limassol and Larnaca. The stunning horseshoe-shaped harbour in Kyrenia
(pictured), is just one of the many unforgettable sights waiting to greet you in this unique
holiday destination.
The natural geography of Northern Cyprus is such that you can spend the morning by the
sea, indulging your tan, enjoy lunch in a mountain-top taverna, taking in the spectacular
views and then spend a leisurely afternoon exploring some of the most incredible historical
and cultural sites to be found in the whole of the Mediterranean.
Surprisingly, amongst all this serenity and natural beauty, Northern Cyprus has another,
more lively side. The town of Kyrenia has over 300 restaurants and tavernas, serving a wide
range of cuisine from traditional Mediterranean fare to gourmet international dishes. For the
more adventurous, there is an excellent choice of activities, such as horse riding, paragliding,
go-karting, quad-biking, jeep safaris, archery and a full range of water sports including PADI
scuba diving, waterskiing and windsurfing. The wonderful thing is that in Northern Cyprus,
these activities blend in with their surroundings rather than overwhelm them.
The sheer beauty of the countryside, the natural friendliness of the people and the most
pleasing climate in the Mediterranean combine to make Northern Cyprus a truly unique
holiday experience, and one that will stay in your memory for many years to come.
NORTH CYPRUSIt is impossible to describe here just what it is that makes
all of the ingredients for a relaxed, Mediterranean holiday. Don’t take our word for it, go and see for yourself!
Essential Information
WHERE TO STAYMost of the accommodation featured in this brochure is situated
in and around the picturesque harbour town of Kyrenia. We have
tried to describe the location of each property as accurately as
possible. Many hotels are set along the coast to the east or west
of Kyrenia itself, or in the villages located in the foothills of the
Five Finger Mountains, such as the renowned village of Bellapais,
with its beautiful 13th century monastery. Whether you prefer a
town-centre hotel, a hillside retreat or a beach-front property, we
are sure to have something to suit. If you need advice then our
friendly reservations team will be pleased to help. If you want to
get out and about and explore, then car hire is advisable. Driving
is on the left, as in the UK, so it is very easy to get around.
ACCOMMODATIONCyprus Paradise RatingsWith such a wide range of properties to choose from, it can be
very diffi cult to select the best type of hotel to suit your needs. We
feel that offi cial ratings are unreliable and do not correspond with
UK standards, so using our expert knowledge of each property
and the feedback we get from our clients, we have given an overall
rating to each property to give you an idea of what to expect –
this is not just based on the standard of the accommodation, but
also the facilities, location, service and other aspects which we
believe are important for your enjoyment.
are our own opinions and are provided as a guide to assist in
your selection. If you want more information on any aspect of
the accommodation please ask our knowledgeable staff who will
do their best to provide you with more detailed information. We
have tried to describe the facilities and accommodation off ered by
the hotels featured in this brochure as accurately as possible at the
time of going to press (January 2012). Hotels in North Cyprus
are normally privately owned and managed by friendly staff .
shown in good faith and generally available. However, they may
on occasion be unavailable due to maintenance, mechanical faults
or weather conditions or because the small number of visitors
in the resort does not justify their opening or operation. Cyprus
Paradise is not responsible for this as these decisions are taken
locally. Low season prices refl ect the fact that some facilities and/
SPECIAL OFFER FLIGHTSThe special offer prices featured in this brochure are based on
Wednesday and Sunday departures from London Stansted to Ercan
International (North Cyprus). For Manchester departures please add
£50 per person. All flights to North Cyprus include a courtesy stop
en-route of approximately 45 minutes. You will not normally be
required to disembark the aircraft.
Beautiful natural scenery, unspoiled beaches, hospitable friendly people and a history that spans over 9,000 years…
or services may not be available. During local or national
holidays, certain facilities such as museums, sightseeing
excursions and shopping may be limited. Such events are
regrettably beyond our control. Some things may be diff erent
in North Cyprus than you might expect in the UK. Don’t
be surprised if from time to time in all accommodation
water and electricity supplies fl uctuate and cupboard space
is limited. You may fi nd it diffi cult to fi nd a clothes iron, so
pack a travel iron. Many hotels provide a kettle but do not
supply tea and coff ee or may charge for it.
Please note that room types are described using local terms.
For example ‘bungalow’ may refer to accommodation on
two fl oors. All our prices are based on 2 persons sharing
twin or double-bedded accommodation, except where
otherwise indicated. Single-room supplements are as shown.
Half board indicates breakfast and one main meal per day
(usually dinner). Breakfast is continental unless otherwise
stated. Although accommodation units may be described
as ‘twin’, they will be provided according to availability and
may also refer to a ‘double’ room. If you have a specifi c
preference for twin or double beds, or would prefer single-
level accommodation, we will endeavour to meet these
requirements but cannot guarantee it. It is vital that you
inform us at the time of booking.
SATELLITE TELEVISION
Clients should be aware that satellite television services in
northern Cyprus do not usually include any of the SKY
channels. However most services do provide for at least 1 or
2 English-speaking channels.
ELECTRICITY SUPPLY
In most hotels, the electricity supply is identical to that in
the UK. i.e. 220 / 240 volts with a standard UK three pin
socket. Some lighting and air-conditioning sockets may be
of the two pin variety, however, this is unusual.
HOLIDAY DURATION
We always refer to holiday duration in terms of ‘number of
nights’ reserved at a holiday accommodation. On the last
day of your holiday, you will probably have to vacate your
room by midday but rooms for storing luggage and changing
facilities will normally be provided.
UNUSED SERVICES
Kindly note that refunds are not available for services provided
but not utilised. If travelling on a bed and breakfast or
half board arrangement, you may fi nd that you lose a meal
calculated to take this into account and no refunds will be
made in this respect.
SELF-CATERING
Self-catering varies tremendously throughout our resorts.
Cooking facilities are limited and will not be what you
would expect to fi nd in your kitchen, but they are all
adequate to rustle up a light meal for children or a snack.
BEACHESAll beaches in North Cyprus are open to the public and
are not the property of the hotel they are situated near.
holidays, locals and guests of other hotels may use the
facilities and services of the beach you are using. A charge
will usually be made to all non-residents for use of sun beds,
parasols etc.
HISTORIC SITES AND MUSEUMSMany historic sites, particularly the Crusader castles, are
rubble and dangerous precipices that have not been fenced
adults, is a necessity, along with sensible shoes and a torch,
if possible, when visiting castles or other historic sites. In the
hot summer months, you are advised to wear a hat when
visiting open-air sites and carry plenty of water with you at
all times. Some museums and historic sites open only in the
mornings. Please enquire with our Kyrenia offi ce for up-to-
date information.
HEALTHVisitors to North Cyprus do not require any medical
treatments or inoculations prior to entry. However, it may
be sensible to have typhoid and cholera vaccinations – we
recommend you consult your doctor prior to departure. In
addition, the Department of Health issue a booklet (T5)
‘Health Advice For Travellers’, which is available from the
Department of Health itself.
www.cyprusparadise.com 020 8343 8888
STERLING AND TRAVELLERS CHEQUESBritish pounds sterling are accepted in most places in
North Cyprus. Many prices in local restaurants and shops
are shown in UK sterling as well as Turkish Lira. If this is
not the case, most establishments will convert your bill
into UK pounds sterling using the exchange rate quoted in
that day’s newspaper. Change will almost always be given
in TL. Sterling travellers cheques may be cashed at any of
the numerous banks and bureaux de change found in both
Kyrenia and Famagusta. Travellers cheques or cash in Euros,
US dollars or other currencies are not as readily accepted.
PASSPORTS AND VISASAll passengers must possess a full passport to travel to North
Cyprus. Infants must have their own passport to travel overseas.
If any member of your party, for example newlywed wives,
changes their name between booking their holiday and the
departure date, it is important to notify us immediately so
that the ticket when produced is issued in the new name. It
is essential that the initials and the name on the ticket match
those on the passport, otherwise the passenger will not be
permitted to travel and any applicable insurances will be invalid.
If there is no time to amend the passport before departure,
the Marriage Certifi cate should be carried in the passport.
A visa is not required by British passport holders to travel to
North Cyprus. Non-British citizens should check their own
position with regard to passports and visas with the London
Representative of the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus on
tel: 020 7631 1920. It is your responsibility to be in possession
of a valid passport and any visa that may be necessary.
BORDER CONTROLSMany of our fl ights utilise Larnaca airport, which is located in
the south of the island. To access the resort towns of Kyrenia
and Famagusta, it is necessary to pass through the ‘green line’
which divides the north and south of the island. Th is ‘dividing
line’ is seen by the Turkish Cypriot authorities as a legitimate
border between the two communities of Cyprus and usual
border crossing controls will apply. You will be required to
produce your passport for inspection at this crossing point and
may also be subject to Customs and Excise inspection. Similarly,
the same conditions will apply on your return journey.
CUSTOMS & EXCISE ALLOWANCESClients using our Larnaca fl ights should be aware that upon
entering the Republic of Cyprus, normal EU duty free
allowances will apply. As North Cyprus is not currently a
member of the EU, cigarettes and alcohol purchased in the
north cannot be imported into the Republic at the end of your
stay. Th ere is no ‘duty free’ allowance between the two sectors
of Cyprus and anybody importing goods from the north could
be liable to prosecution or an on-the-spot fi ne. However, there
are no restrictions in place between the Republic of Cyprus and
the UK. Cigarettes and alcohol purchased in the Republic can
be imported into the UK without restriction. Clients using our
Ercan (North Cyprus) fl ights are permitted the standard non-
EU allowance when returning to the UK.
TRANSFERSHotel transfer times from Ercan International airport (North
Cyprus) and from Larnaca are shown on the relevant hotel
pages. Transfers to and from Larnaca may be subject to a
change of transfer bus at the ‘green line’ separating the south
and north of the island.
FLIGHT DELAYSIn the event of a fl ight being delayed, Cyprus Paradise will
arrange for the following to be provided, whenever practical
and subject to the airport being able to cater for this:– Over
4 hours, an appropriate meal; for delays of at least 8 hours
extending beyond midnight, overnight accommodation will be
provided wherever possible. However, this will depend on such
factors as the expected length of the delay, local availability
of accommodation, immigration rulings, etc. Where long
fl ight delays result in lost holiday time, no refunds are given
by hotels for unused accommodation, as rooms are held for
delayed arrivals, not re-let. Similarly, airlines do not off er
compensation for fl ight delays. It is in recognition of the above
that holiday travel insurance policies normally off er monetary
compensation for fl ight delays under certain circumstances.
RETURN FLIGHTSPlease come along to our ‘welcome meeting’, which is usually
held in your hotel the day after you arrive in North Cyprus.
You will fi nd out useful information about your holiday and
our representatives will also be able to check that the details
which you have for your return fl ights are correct and inform
you about your transfer arrangements.

Local public transport is not nearly as efficient as it is in the UK, and with petrol and car hire prices
being relatively cheap, why not hire a car and explore North Cyprus? Visit far flung places such as the Pan
Handle (Karpaz Peninsula) and explore many other hidden gems at your leisure. Driving in North Cyprus
is the same as in the UK (on the left), the road conditions are reasonably good and major routes are all
signposted. All you need is a current driving licence (not international) and your car can be delivered to
your hotel or the airport free of charge.
Hiring a car may be the best possible way
to enjoy your holiday in North Cyprus. You
can discover the richness and diversity of the
country in a more intimate way.

conditions, which are governed by English Law, and the jurisdiction of the
English Courts. You may however, choose the law and jurisdiction of Scotland
or Northern Ireland if you wish to do so.
2. Your Financial ProtectionWe provide full financial protection for our package holidays. When you buy an
ATOL protected air holiday package from us you will receive a Confirmation
Invoice from us (or via our authorised agent through which you booked)
confirming your arrangements and your protection under our Air Travel
Organiser’s Licence number 9345. In the unlikely event of our insolvency, the
CAA will ensure that you are not stranded abroad and will arrange to refund any
money you have paid to us for an advance booking. For further information visit
the ATOL website at www.atol.org.uk.
3. ABTAWe are a voluntary Member of ABTA, membership number Y2916. We are
obliged to maintain a high standard of service to you by ABTA’s Code of
Conduct. We can also offer you an arbitration scheme for the resolution of
scheme is arranged by ABTA and administered independently by IDRS,
part of the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators. It provides for a simple and
inexpensive method of arbitration on documents alone with restricted liability
Neither does it apply to claims which are solely in respect of physical injury or
claims which include an element of minor injury or illness subject to a limit
of £1,000 on the amount the arbitrator can award per person in respect of
this element. Your request for arbitration must be received by ABTA within
twelve months of the date of return from holiday. Outside this time limit
arbitration under the Scheme may still be available if we agree, but the ABTA
Code does not require such agreement. For injury and illness claims, you can
request the ABTA/IDRS Mediation Procedure and we have the option to
agree to mediation. Further information on the Code and ABTA’s assistance
in resolving disputes can be found on www.abta.com.
4. Your Holiday Price1) We reserve the right to alter the prices of any of the holidays shown in our
brochure. You will be advised of the current price of the holiday that you wish to
book before your contract is confirmed.
2) When you make your booking you must pay a non-refundable deposit of
£75 per person. Higher deposits or flight balance may be due at the time of
booking for certain flights/airlines and may be nonrefundable (please enquire at
time of booking). Certain holiday packages may also require full non-refundable
must be paid at least 8 weeks before your departure date. If the deposit and/or
balance is not paid in time, we shall cancel your travel arrangements and we shall
retain your deposit. Payment by credit card will incur a 1.95% non-refundable
surcharge unless otherwise notified at the time of payment that there has been a
change in this rate. No charge is made for payment by debit card. All monies you
pay to the travel agent are held by them on our behalf at all times. Any variation
to this pricing policy will be notified to you at time of booking.
3) Changes in transportation costs (including the cost of fuel, dues, taxes or fees
chargeable for services such as landing taxes or embarkation or disembarkation
fees at ports and airports) and exchange rates mean that the price of your travel
arrangements may change after you have booked. However there will be no change
within 30 days of your departure. We will absorb and you will not be charged
for any increase equivalent to 2% of the price of your travel arrangements, which
excludes insurance premiums and any amendment charges. You will be charged for
the amount over and above that, plus an administration charge of £1.00 per person
together with an amount to cover agents’ commission. If this means that you have
to pay an increase of more than 10% of the price of your travel arrangements, you
will have the option of accepting a change to another holiday if we are able to offer
one (if this is of equivalent or higher quality you will not have to pay more but if it
is of lower quality you will be refunded the difference in price), or cancelling and
receiving a full refund of all monies paid, except for any amendment charges. We
will consider an appropriate refund of insurance premiums paid if you can show
that you are unable to transfer or reuse your policy. Should you decide to cancel
for this reason, you must exercise your right to do so within 14 days from the issue
date printed on your final invoice. Should the price of your holiday go down due
to the changes mentioned above, by more than 2% of your holiday cost, then any
refund due will be paid to you. However, please note that travel arrangements are
not always purchased in local currency and some apparent changes have no impact
on the price of your travel due to contractual and other protection in place.
5. If You Change Your BookingIf, after our confirmation invoice has been issued, you wish to change your
travel arrangements in any way, for example your chosen departure date or
accommodation, we will do our utmost to make these changes but it may not
always be possible. Any request for changes to be made must be in writing from
the person who made the booking or your travel agent. You will be asked to pay
an administration charge of £25 per change, and any further cost we incur in
making this alteration. You should be aware that these costs could increase the
closer to the departure date that changes are made and you should contact us as
soon as possible. Note: Certain travel arrangements (e.g. Apex Tickets) may not
be changeable after a reservation has been made and any alteration request could
incur a cancellation charge of up to 100% of that part of the arrangements.
6. If You Cancel Your HolidayYou, or any member of your party, may cancel your travel arrangements at any
time. Written notification from the person who made the booking or your
travel agent on your behalf must be received at our offices. Since we incur costs
in cancelling your travel arrangements, you will have to pay the applicable
cancellation charges up to the maximum shown in accordance with the table
below. Note: If the reason for your cancellation is covered under the terms of
your insurance policy, you may be able to reclaim these charges.

7. If We Change or Cancel Your HolidayIt is unlikely that we will have to make any changes to your travel arrangements,
but we do plan the arrangements many months in advance. Occasionally, we may
have to make changes and we reserve the right to do so at any time. Most of these
changes will be minor and we will advise you or your travel agent of them at the
earliest possible date. We also reserve the right in any circumstances to cancel your
travel arrangements. For example, if the minimum number of clients required for
a particular travel arrangement is not reached, we may have to cancel it. However,
we will not cancel your travel arrangements less than 6 weeks before your departure
date, except for reasons of force majeure or failure by you to pay the final balance.
If we are unable to provide the booked travel arrangements, you can either have
a refund of all monies paid or accept an offer of alternative travel arrangements
of comparable standard from us if available. If it is necessary to cancel your travel
arrangements, we will pay to you compensation as set out in this clause.
In accordance with EU Regulation 2111/2005 we are required to advise you of
the actual carrier operating your flight/connecting flight/transfer. Any changes
to the actual airline after you have received your tickets will be notified to
you as soon as possible and in all cases at check-in or at the boarding gate.
Such a change is deemed to be a minor change. Other examples of minor
changes include alteration of your outward/return flights by less than 12
hours, changes to aircraft type, change of London Airport (i.e. Stansted,
Luton, Heathrow or Gatwick), change of accommodation to another of the
same or similar standard. If we make a major change to your holiday, we will
inform you or your travel agent as soon as is reasonably possible if there is
time before your departure. You will have the choice of either accepting the
change of arrangements, accepting an offer of alternative travel arrangements

unforeseeable circumstances beyond our control, the consequences of which
could not have been avoided even if all due care had been exercised; or an
event which we or our suppliers, even with all due care, could not foresee or
forestall. Our liability, except in cases involving death, injury or illness, shall
be limited to a maximum of twice the cost of your travel arrangements. Our
liability will also be limited in accordance with and/or in an identical manner
to the contractual terms of the companies that provide the transportation for
any relevant international convention, for example the Montreal Convention
in respect of travel by air, which limit the amount of compensation that
you can claim for death, injury, delay to passengers and loss, damage and
delay to luggage. We are to be regarded as having all benefit of any limitation
of compensation contained in these or any conventions. Under EU law
(Regulation 261/2004) you have rights in some circumstances to refunds and/
or compensation from your airline in cases of denied boarding, cancellation
or delay to flights. Full details of these rights will be publicised at EU airports
and will also be available from airlines. However reimbursement in such cases
will not automatically entitle you to a refund of your holiday cost from us.
Your right to a refund and/or compensation from us is set out in clause 7. If
any payments to you are due from us, any payment made to you by the airline
will be deducted from this amount. If your airline does not comply with these
rules you should complain to the Air Transport Users’ Council on 020 7240
