Apartment Rental in Cyprus

Every third person who comes to Cyprus “just for a couple of weeks” starts checking rental prices by the third day. The island pulls you in. No one questions working from a seaside café in December or enjoying sunshine all year round. You simply live — and that’s it.

But the romance fades when reality sets in: rental prices can seem high, listings in English feel confusing, and private landlords are not always easy to deal with. That’s why long-term property rental is the smartest option for anyone planning to stay and settle in comfortably.

Buying property right away can be risky. You may not yet know whether the calm pace of Paphos suits you or if the dynamic lifestyle of Limassol is exactly what you need. Long-term apartment rental in Cyprus gives you time to explore neighborhoods, understand local life, and make an informed decision without pressure.

What to consider when searching for an apartment:

• Proximity to the sea — frontline properties cost 30–40% more and are not always essential
• Local infrastructure — supermarkets, schools, and medical facilities should be nearby
• Utility bills — often excluded; air conditioning can add €150–200 per month in summer
• Furniture and appliances — confirm the presence of a washing machine and oven in advance

How much does long-term apartment rental in Cyprus really cost?

Prices vary depending on city, area, and property type. A studio in a residential area of Larnaca starts from €500 per month. A spacious apartment with sea views in central Limassol typically costs €1,500–2,000. For families, it is often worth considering apartment rentals in modern residential complexes with shared facilities.

The best way to save money is to work with professionals. Aggregator websites and private listings often include inflated prices, especially for foreign tenants. Local agencies understand the real market values and can help negotiate more favorable rental terms.

Where to search and who to trust?

Facebook groups and local classified websites are popular, but they also carry a higher risk of outdated listings and scams. Without knowledge of local practices, it is easy to waste both time and money.
