Larnaca International Airport: where to stay, areas and recommended…

Larnaca Airport is just a few minutes from the city: the centre and the Finikoudes seafront are about 10-15 minutes away by car, and even the farthest hotels in the area stay under 20 minutes. This makes the choice of area less decisive than elsewhere: almost all of Larnaca, from the port to Mackenzie Beach closest to the runways, is within a short transfer, and the real difference lies more in the type of property — a large international chain or an independent apartment — than between zones far apart from each other.

Finikoudes Seafront and City Centre

City centre · 7-10 km from the airport, 10-15 minutes by car or taxi to the centre and the Finikoudes seafront.

Best for: Anyone who wants the Finikoudes seafront, St Lazarus Church and the restaurants of the centre within walking distance, with a short transfer from the airport.

Pros

Pedestrian seafront, marina and most of Larnaca's restaurants and evening spots within walking distance of the central hotels
One of the shortest airport transfers on the whole list: almost never above 15 minutes

Cons

In high season the seafront and the seaside restaurants are very busy in the evening
The city beaches are urban, smaller than those on the coast outside town
