City of Dreams Mediterranean Resort, Limassol

A large-scale integrated resort on the western edge of Limassol, City of Dreams Mediterranean sits directly beside Limassol Greens, giving golfers about as short a walk to the first tee as Cyprus offers. The course itself, designed by Cabell Robinson, is a par-71 layout with Bermuda fairways, fast Bentgrass greens and a pair of striking wetland holes bordering a eucalyptus forest, the first championship course built inside a Cypriot city. Back at the 500-room hotel, five à la carte restaurants span French, Chinese, Greek and Mediterranean cooking, four bars keep evenings going, and the island’s largest pool complex sits alongside a full spa and an on-site casino for guests who fancy a change of pace once the clubs are away.
